Why the fuck does Nintendo do this

based nintendo just can't stop winning

JUST

I don't understand why they want to buy one so much.

Europoors love their FIFA

Competing with Apple for the same parts and incredibly high demand. Switch will likely be selling all through the year globally.

The Switch is insanely appealing to Japan
Just wait for when they can actually meet demand and no longer have way less consoles to sell than people want to buy each week, it'll be nuts.

>"Why people want to buy the best videogame platform in the market?"

>May
and even if it weren't old and irrelevant Switch is sold out LITERALLY EVERYWHERE

industry-wide shortage on mandatory mobile parts.

not just "competing with apple". The entire field is trying to get their hands on this shit

Does anyone have that image showing the preorder stats on upcoming games in Japan?
It showed Splatoon 2 decimating all other titles, it was crazy.

Nintendo saving Japan from mobage shit

Japs have some weird obsession with handhelds.

You don't need a tv to play it on, so it takes up next to no room.

mfw CRAPCOM is SEETHING right now.

good thing it's coming to switch too

I'm impressed people are such blind nintendo loayalists that they buy an more expensive system with cheaper components and no games, than a less expensive system with better components and many games,

>vgchartz

>Sony nogs eternally pooperpeeved by the PS3 launch

why is it weird to prefer handhelds?

Those were facts, dork.

It's less powerful than my phone from 3 years ago.

Deflecting doesn't negate the fact.

opinions != facts, dork.
for me the switch is a higher quality system than the ps4, it is something very different than any other system, it offers many different ways to play, while the ps4 is just an imitation pc

So why does Nintendo insist on making bullshit gimmick systems with parts that cause a terrible bottleneck when it's clearly the games that are selling the Switch? There's no shortage of PS4s or Xbones.

That's literally not true, and if you think so you know nothing about hardware. Your phone from three years ago coulf barely run an n64 game, not to mention the switch is probably also 1/3rd the price of said phone

Why do we need a three of the same fucking box on the market? Wouldn't you rather have a different product?

>portability is a gimmick
I'm sorry Sony burned you with the Vita user

>entering in raffle
>winner gets the chance to BUY the console
AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAH

>I do t understand how a market that is the second highest consumer of video games worldwide and has been shifting away from home consoles for years now to the point that PS4 could barely managed to outperform an international flop like the Wii U prefers a high end handheld to an obsolete home console that is inferior to the PC, which is now more widely preferred by Japanese gamers when it comes to the home gaming experience anyway

>no games
>fact

sure whatever lol

>Switch costs more than PS4
Fact
>Switch has cheaper materials than PS4
Fact
>PS4 has a bigger library than Switch
Fact

>you can only own one console

>Why people want to buy a new console instead of a old one? the old one cost less and has more games!

>Japan

>Switch finally kills the Vita
>All those anime games Vita owners love get released on the Switch

cool, that's not what you said tho

>obsolete home console that is inferior to the PC, which is now more widely preferred by Japanese gamers when it comes to the home gaming experience anyway
lol PCnignogs are this delusional.

>when a console is sold out and not available the one in stock sells more.

Thanks detective

it's very easy to get one in Australia

>Sound logic is being used for ironic shitposting

Because needing to watch anime tentacle underage rape porn in public is disturbing

I hope you all are remembering to screencap sonybros. Seriously, for one second drop the act and answer this question: does anyone actually think the Switch is the Wii U 2?

>Win the lottery to lose money

Handheld doesn't imply taking it out in public you buttblasted sperg

your projections are what's really disturbing here

It kind of does considering the only reason the Switch sales are stagnating is because they literally can't make anymore.

Also the PS3 had a handful of titles no one remembers from launch, whereas the Switch had BoTW.

>Switch costs more than PS4
Actually the PS4 launch price was 400 USD, whereas the Switch is only 300. If you adjust for inflation it's even cheaper.

The Tegra X1 in the Switch is supposedly about on par with the Apple A9x in the iPad Pro from 2 years ago.

As an Ausfag I can't help but laugh at this.

>Could walk into any store on launch, plenty of stock, no lines, just like any other day.

>Stores are still packed with stock now

>Switches on the second hard market here are already depreciating like crazy

>Meanwhile people in the US and Japan can't even buy one new

Most Japanese game consumers prefer either handhelds, mobile phones or PC these days. This is why Sony and it's bigger Japanese third parties focus more on appealing to Western gamers now, because home consoles just aren't what they used to be there. Unless Sony releases a Vita successor, they may not have a firm grasp on japan in the future. Also, a lot of Japs who own a ps4 still have incentive to buy a Switch. It's not as though you can't own both or as though Japanese Sony consumers don't also have money saved by now after buying their PS4 one or two years ago to buy another console to compliment their PS4

> If you adjust for inflation it's even cheaper.
I can't tell if this is bait.

Switch is worth every Yen

For what games to play right now, no ports allowed.

Splatoon 2's launch week is going to be a massacre.

>Salty nips with no Switches committing felonies to get their hands on one, or committing sudoku

I get irrationally angry at Nintendo shortages. Even more so when there are people making excuses for it. And after doing a quick read on the subject it seems unlikely to get better over time. Unless people decide to stop buying iPhones. Which, hey, it could happen... But I wouldn't hold my breath. Since Apple and Nintendo are using Mobile parts and Apple gets more orders, Apple gets priority. Apparently. This is from a Fortune article, you can google it.

Then why couldn't the iPad pro run any full tier 3d games? Not to mention the switch is less than half the price of an iPad

The day Splatoon 2 launches, all my regret getting Switch at launch will be erased.

>Europe is >50% of PS4's sales
I'm not sure whether to laugh or be concerned

The pains of early adoption me amigo, but at least we won't have to fist fight someone for one.

I own a Switch, and I say it's not worth drawing straws to have the CHANCE to buy it.

People should wait a couple more years for the library to grow.

Is it legal for a company to contract people to buy shit loads of its product to resell at 300% markup, with the company keeping some and making sure the scalper gets a cut as well?

A part of me kinda hopes there's reports of fights breaking out in Japanese newspapers

>Buy a Switch
>Get stabbed

ports of a dead system don't count?

Regardless, MK8D has new content and BOTW was a dual release, so, lol. ARMS is good too and there's plenty of great games on the eShop like Graceful Explosion Machine, Neo Geo ports, D5 and shit like that.

And of course portability :)

Daily reminder a ps4 and a copy of fifa are a basic human right for muslim boat people

>Mfw their servers crash

this is the state of ponies

Ports are still games that you can play dumb shit, it's like 90% of the PS4s library.

here brah

It can. Just no one wants to make decent games for iPad because it's a shit gaming platform and Apple's policies kind of hold it back (ie. your game has to be usable with just touch controls alone, you can't require a controller).

I really don't give a fuck if Switch is technically outdated technology. I love my Switch either way. Graphics can enhance games, but they don't make games.

Switch is a great gaming platform, regardless of its CPU/GPU.

Also it's about $260 there rather than $300

What sort of money are scalpers asking for Switches in the US at the moment?

I regularly ship motorcycles to/from Aus, and I can buy and ship them by the pallet no worries.

>1M unit launch in Japan
Literally Dragon Quest/Final Fantasy tier.

>people calmly waiting in line
>IT'LL BE A FUCKING WARZONE HURR
japan isnt like your nigger country

one game

So you can't meet such a simple criteria, good to know.

I still don't understand why you would ever want to get a console over a pc?

>superior technology
>can play every single title from all the modern consoles
>can play every single title from the old consoles
>don't have to buy a new console every 1-2 years

It just doesn't make any sense.

The pc can also be used for every single else, while the console can maybe play music and lets you watch a movie (if you are lucky).

the problem isn't really power when it comes to mobile games, it' battery life. I'm not going to spend more than 30 minutes playing a game when it's going to drain up to half or more of my battery, and that's for a somewhat simple game.

>but in my mind it doesn't count!!!!

cry harder

I'm willing to bet we're gonna get a BotW siuation over there with over 100% attach rate

people are listing them for $350+ on craigslist

I wasn't too disappointed with the early adoption, but I've pre-ordered almost every major game for this year and I pre-ordered Splatoon 2 and the Splatoon 2 Amiibo so for me it's been pretty good. I got Arms, Blaster Master, Bomberman and Shantae to keep me busy until Splatoon 2. Got Fire Emblem Warriors, Odyssey and Xenoblade on preorder. Will probably get Disgaea when used copies get low enough

gamespot.com/articles/after-two-months-of-switch-at-no-1-ps4-leads-us-ha/1100-6451042/

Yeah but can it play fifa?

So we don't have to play with cocksucking elitists like you. I like having fun, thank you very much.

For things in short supply it makes sense, they do this for private schools too.

>pyfw Switch sales EXPLODE with the release of Splantoon 2, Pokemon and Animal Crossing

Nintedo + PC is the best combination.

It didn't for ps4, it won't for switch.

it's more like I don't care enough to list games here like sonybros. I'm playing a lot of arms and mighty gunvolt burst (in addition to the ports that you say don't count as games, even though you can't play them on your PS4)

The vast majority of parents would rather spend $300-$400 on a plug-and-play box they can plop their kids in front of than spend time and money assembling a computer.

ODYSSEY YES SI

Is that why PC niggers need to bitch and moan for PS4 games?

They've been stockpiling Switch for MONTHS in different warehouses around the world to drive up demand for the holiday this year. The supply shortage is a falseflag.

Ports only count as games when they're PS3 remasters or on PC silly

so you're saying that the switch has a better battery life than the iPad then? I wouldnt know because I don't have an iPad, but I've had zero issues with the battery life of my switch

It's already sold out everywhere, I can't see how the numbers will get any bigger

What games?

Because the new console has games we want. And why can't people own more than one console? The PS4 and Switch do different things. They're good companions to each other.

The Switch isn't a console, it's a handheld.
