You are missing the big picture. What's going on in this thread is the same as ten years ago when people who were upset by high Wii sales tried to put Wii in a different market, the goal being that if Wii is in a different market, then PS or Xbox would remain the sales leader in the market that matters. The people who go smarter about this do it by using backhanded compliments, such as "it was smart by Nintendo to make a handheld that connects to the TV." If you look at the post I replied to before yours, you'll spot the compliment that "Nintendo makes high quality games with great creativity" that stands in complete contradiction with the rest of the post. If the aforementioned statement were truly believed by the person who said it, they would have concluded that Switch sales exploded this holiday season because of Nintendo's strong first party lineup. But instead said person pursued a longwinded way to arrive at a different and illogical conclusion that makes it more comforting for them to accept the high Switch sales. |
If you want to talk trash its ok , but there is no contradiction. Nintendo has great games with great creativity, you can see that with people and critics score and how the games are remembered. You are saying that the switch sold so much because of the strong first party lineup. I guess I don´t have to tell you that Game of the year, Zelda BOTW launched for Wii U. Mario Kart 8 lauched for wii U. Was the Wii U a success? No. What was the fact that really diferenciate the Wii U from the Switch? That its a small mobile device with great conectivity. No even the hardware performance is that better. So there you have it. And if you read my post till the end, not only I accept the high switch sales, I´m glad that there are more gamers, and many those gamers will buy PS5 and 6 or XBOX2 or so later on.
