If I do anything wrong, do complain!

"If I do anything wrong, do complain!"

You didn't give me $100 yet

We all know Switch won and Xbox isn't selling any big numbers until E3 so yeah, pretty obvious month. Exciting year tough, how will Switch hold the moment, what will happen at E3 on all 3 camps and how will Scorpio sell

Great time to be a gamer of any or all platforms

Its true. Switch is only a HH in japan

And in my house :)

I wonder if the Switch can break the March record set by the Wii? If I remember correctly it sold 700k in 2008.
