No, Soundwave is right that a lot of people on here were arguing about name/launch titles/price/specs. Things like ”Nintendo has never had a 2 for a system name.” (I personally thought Super Switch) ”Mario Kart is a game you buy when you already have the system, it’s not a system seller itself.” ”Anything over $400 is suicide.” ”Nintendo always releases weak hardware, it won’t be able to run PS5/XBSX ports.” Yes, these were common arguments on this site. Just because he’s not willing to go through dozens of threads and hundreds of posts to prove doesn’t mean he’s wrong. Now obviously this doesn’t mean everyone was making these arguments. A lot of people were also arguing in favor of 2/MK launch/$400+/powerful. |
I don't think I've seem a single people say this.
As far as I remember $400 was the sweet spot most people were expecting, and when $450 was revealed hardly anyone thought it was suicide, just that it could have been $400 instead.
Mario Kart World being $80 was mostly what people criticized a lot, including me.
I was also not believing NS2 would be the name, but I never doubted it could happen. And when it was announced to be the case I thought it was a good thing it did, it makes it very clear what it is, like we have with Playstation.
Soundwave has been fighting battles against himself over the NS2 for some time now, there was a thread completely derailled by it not too long ago, it looks a lot like this one right now actually, I left a great strawberry shortcake recipe posted there tho.
