How many balls am I holding?

Once again Nintendo makes a gimmick (HD rumble this time) and then make a game to justify its existence but the remaining 99% of games will never use it.

I for one am looking forward to Counting Ice Cubes: The Video Game.

That was terrible. Basically 2 launch games. Paid online. Quirky minigames. No 3rd party stuff.

 

I assume that's it for Nintendo consoles. I didn't think it was possible, but mark my words, this is bombing harder than the WiiU.

 

They proved time and time again that they have no idea where to fit in the modern gaming market, and that disconnection will be met by rejection. If they wake up by the time Switch under performs, then maybe the stuff they'll make as a 3rd party or a mobile producer will offset the losses.

 

For now, I'm out :/

The Wii is an outlier for Nintendo.

They've been, otherwise, declining in the home console market since they entered it

NES: 62M

SNES: 49M

N64: 33M

GC: 22M

WiiU: ~14M

1-2 Switch is making me really worried. Why'd they make something like this...it's $50 too. What's Nintendo smoking over there!

50 dolars to milk the tits of a cow while you look in the eyes of your oponent? This is cheap gtfo lmao

This will be the next esport , i am telling you, you will see  tit milking pro player in 1 million dolars tourneys

You don't get it. It's farmer's training, like some people are talking about surgeon's training with VR. With all the urban people being eco-friendly nowadays, it's obvious a lot of those trendy people will be thrilled to learn how to milk a cow. It could even help the agriculture by raising awareness about the importance of hand milked cows. That's the future.

They´re insane with the prices of those controllers.

$70 for a Pro controller?
$110 for a pair of joycon controllers with grip?

Get the fuck outta here.

lol farmer training for milking a cow is milking a cow.

Are they out of touch?

I mean if there are people out there willing to pay $300, a smart business person would want to sell to those first and foremost and then lower prices and push out bundles later.

I told my cousin about the $300 price tag and he thought it was a good price. Too much for me though, I'm holding off for the inevitable Mario Kart bundle. $250 would have been the sweet spot for me and I'm telling my cousin to hold off.

I'm sure it's a lot cheaper to buy a Switch than to buy a cow for the training. Perfect marketing here.
