| fatslob-:O said: People who keep hyping the Switch in China have no idea what the chinese market wants or how Nintendo's previous efforts (iQue) went ... The reason why we never hear back of a Nintendo system releasing China is because they know they don't have a horse in the race when they and their partners don't go on to localize more than 3 dozen games according to past history ... The Switch's conclusion will be no different than before when Nintendo's localization efforts remains next to non-existent, PS4 however unlike the Switch has real potential to succeed in that market because *gasp* Sony actually thinks about bringing content beyond just international brand power ... |
I'm just putting my two cents in here so don't chew my head off if you think i'm wrong.
The Switch is magnificent. Just utter joy. Just got DQB today, and I have it next to me right now. Right now as I type and you read this from maybe two hours from now or in 3 days. At home, where it stays, it's always in reach. I'm probably not the only one who feels this way about the switch. Where sony and xbox and nintendo failed with ique, it was because those 3 were invading the market that either sold them cheap or nothing at all. To buy the device and then all the games to machines that did not run better than the pc they've already built was not going anywhere.
But with switch. It's the machine. A machine that fills a void for the kind of gamer that I imagine swims around this site. I can attest as a gamer that the Switch has me playing more than I ever have in my life. I played before the switch, but now with all these pocket sessions, it's gone up so much. With that said, hype hype hype.
Here's a little joke: Nintendo will make 15 million China specific Switch consoles. They don't care that it will take 10 years for all those consoles to sell. But why not when China has population of 1.379b. Oh well, it covered Wii u.
I know nothing of china or their economics btw.
