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.

Well there are two main things.

1) link to evidence?

2) if one person says something stupid, the other 20 don't, it is disingenuous to claim it was a common position 

I would love to see actual evidence that MK, which outsells 3D Mario isnt a system seller.  Same with all those people who said 2 didnt make sense.

Claims require evidence.  Pretty simple.  So provide or hush.  Especially if oh so many people said these things.  If all these people said these things, then there should be evidence.

1. I don’t have the willpower to look through old threads/posts like I did when I was more active on this site, all I can say is I remember seeing them just like Soundwave does.

2. Good point, it could certainly be a case of the few ridiculous statements standing out to Soundwave and I while the more abundant, rational posts are less memorable.
