"We need to give 1-2 Switch a chance guys! Until you play it, you can't possibly know if it's worth $50, so you shouldn't claim it's not worth it. Until you do, that game is totally worth $50, just not 50 of my dollars!"

Tell me almighty, how you possibly came to the conclusion that you're not willing to buy 1-2 Switch without playing it first? How come you haven't given it the benefit of the doubt?

Yes, any game that you're not willing to spend the asking price on is by definition overpriced to you. I was unwilling to purchase Rise of the Tomb Raider for $60 when it came out for PS4 considering it was a year-old game. So I waited for the price to come down to $30, and picked it up then. Therefore it was overpriced to me at $60, but not overpriced at $30. Was Rise of the Tomb Raider for PS4 overpriced at $60 in general? Considering sales of the game picked up heavily between black friday and christmas day while the game was selling for $30, it's a safe bet to say that yes, it probably was.

That's a wrap folks. Nothing further to see here.

You never had an honest interest to argue the actual points that were made, did you?

Except for the points I addressed directly, you're right! But that's not an objective fact as much as it's your opinion based on your feelings, and that's the point I'm making.

You were projecting. You obviously have a hard time separating your emotions from sales analysis yourself, so you assume everyone thinks in the same way you do, except they're wrong and you're right, because reasons. You always put a lot of emotion behind what you present as objective facts. If I'm not mistaken you think the Switch will sell at least 50 million units, (and, might I add, think it's ridiculous that anyone would think it would sell less than that, regardless of their analysis), but that has nothing do you with your feelings about the Switch, right? Whereas barneystinson's prediction that it'll sell less than the Wii U is obviously based on nothing but emotions, because that's just crazy talk (according to you) Do you not see the cognitive dissonance there?  You said that Nintendo's board of director's won't choose to stop selling hardware mostly because you believe they're "special", and obviously there's more money to be made controlling their own platform than going third party, but Sega, it totally wasn't obvious that there's more money to be made on their platform, because Sega's IPs are terrible compared to Nintendos!. Need I go on? You inject your feeling towards Nintendo into your anaylsis of their actions (and the actions of others) in almost every single post you make about them, but when you do it, somehow it's acceptable. Funny how that works.

But hey, why take a good look in the mirror and admit that you're guilty of the very thing you blast others for when you can just continue in your hypocrisy?
