Why are you talking to yourself dude?

Just kidding.

Monster sales for the Switch. The 3DS really overperformed in Japan in its day (compared to its sales in the rest of the world/ it still sold below the DS).

Japan's a one-horse race at this point.

33:1 ratio between Switch and its nearest rival.

Still, it's hard for me to be as enthusiastic about its performance as I normally would as by now I feel like Switch's sales are making Nintendo arrogant and complacent again.

I just feel like at the moment they're like "we sell like crack without even trying, so why bother actually communicating with our fans or releasing new games?"

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

This is pretty what happens when a single system has a whole region for itself :)



Hot damn! The storm before the hurricane. Animal Crossing + RFA + Switch stock is carrying Japan right now. Cant wait for next week.



Pocky Lover Boy!

the fact that there are still Japanese 3rd party devs making exclusive games on the PS4 and PS5 is just laughable.

This is just gonna be an insane year for the switch. Could actually sell 30mil if Ninty can produce that many



Just a guy who doesn't want to be bored. Also
