I really hate asymmetrical stick placement.

your face is asymmetrical you ugly bitch

holy shit

More PS4 owners than Switch owners, vastly. Hardly a surprise.

Weak bait thread.

Zelda will outsell it over its lifetime.

>2.7 million switches sold
>~3 million zeldas sold

>60 million ps4s sold
>4 million hzd sold

>BotW is so bad it can't even convince people to buy a Switch

Horizon Zero Dawn: 2.81 million
Breath of the Wild: 3.64 million
According to VGChartz.
It could be outdated, but so could whatever your cherrypicked source on Zelda's sales is.

This.

BoTW is such a fucking hit that Nintendo has sold more Switch copies of BoTW than actual Switch consoles. Literally every Switch owner has it.

Meanwhile, only a little over 15% of all PS4 owners have Horizon Zero Dawn.

To be fair Zelda is the only game on the Switch.

You do realize those numbers include Wii U copies right?

jesus

There are more people who bought PS4 than Switch.
That means theres more people who can buy Horizon.

Or the fact that BOTW is literally the only game on the entire console

BotW is on the Wii U as well friendo.

Including Wii U numbers puts it at 3.64 million

Did people forget that BotW is also on WiiU?

Wow the console has scalpers not only inflating sales of the system but also it's one game

This. Horizon was made to sell copies, Zelda was made to sell Switchs

Not enough switches due to there not being enough NAND ram available to make them because phone manufactures have larger contracts with ram manufactures

And Zelda couldn't even do that.

They don't. Excluding the Wii U numbers, BotW had an 102% attach rate.

Loving these fake sales figures by Sony

>3.4 million in June
>BotW had 2.76 million sold in March
What?

>Zelda literally sold out every switch that was available
DAMN

kek.

>Nintenbros literally buying multiple copies of a game just to make it a success

How embarrassing.

>Horizon Zero Dawn couldn't outsell Zelda even though more people own a PS4 than a Wii U and Switch combined many times over
Pathetic.

That reminds me, I need to go out and buy HZD after I finish No Man's Sky.

this

More likely that there are people who bought the game but still haven't bought a switch.

I hate the faggots who cave and pay the extra money to the scalper. Imagine how hilarious it would be if no one bought them, and some faggot just ended up with 30 switches that he ended up having to sell for a loss or at cost.

>The most hyped entry in one of the biggest franchises of all time released across multiple consoles BARELY outsold a new IP

Uncharted 4 sold 2.7 million in one week. Two months later it was at like 4 million. After Christmas it skyrocketed to almost 9 million. I imagine HZD will do the same, though I imagine it will max out around 6-7 million, since it doesn't have the popularity of Uncharted.

If it makes you feel better, people who tried to scalp the wii u got fucked.

Europe, not even once

>Actually relying on a site that's known for having zero sources for their sales claims and makes numbers up
Hilarious

well get used to it faggot.

xbox+switch is best combo and the controllers are the same for a reason because of dank illuminati crossplay

That's not my point, my point is that OP is implying Zelda couldn't sell 0.7 million copies in 2 months

Then how about this

Is OP's fabricated headline a better source? Ctrl+F "Nintendo" his link and it returns one result, the Nintendo news tab at the top of the page.

it seems like people in my area arent buying atleast.

there are 5 switch posts on my local craigslist in small town montana, they used to be 600$ now the majority are asking 350$ and people still arent buying so they keep getting reposted

is this the /consolewar/ general? last one got deleted by the mods

>sells almost 2x more than Zelda
bullshit
BotW sold 3.6 million on an install based much smaller than the PS4 (16.2 million vs 60.4 million)

how does this make you feel then?

one is my brother's copy and I pirated the one on the wii U for my other brother who doesn't have a switch

are you now acting like the wiiU sold well? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA sonybros everyone.

BotW
>part of one of the most well-known franchises in media
>literally everyone has heard of it
>every game gets amazing reviews
>multiplat
>launch title

Horizon
>new IP
>from the makers of fucking Killzone
>exclusive
>out the same week as Zelda, two weeks before Nier and a month and a half before Persona 5

BotW should be blowing it out of the fucking water to be perfectly honest. 60 million means shit when fucking Uncharted 4 barely cracked 10.

>It's ok that it didn't sell as well because this is the second time in a row Nintendo has released a failed console! Nintendo wins again!

Here's the page

e3 REALLY stung huh?

Wasn't Uncharted a pack in game bundled with PS4s over Christmas?

IT DOES NOT SAY THIS ANYWHERE IN THE ARTICLE HE LINKED
FAKE CONSOLE WAR BULLSHIT THREAD

iirc the collectors edition was only for the Switch versiom, so people who wanted the Wii U version but also wanted the stuff that came with the collectors edition would have needed to buy both versions. I imagine they probably resold the Switch version, though.

Nintendo are liars and you are foolish to believe the lies they tell you.

Whoa, look out everybody we got a badass over here.

>Sony beats Microsoft and Nintendo
>"According to Sony, their latest sales data reveals that nearly 60 million units of PlayStation 4 consoles were bought by customers since its debut in 2013."
NO FUCKING SHIT WHO THE FUCK WROTE THIS

Not many people own the Wii U and Switch has had shortage issues for months. Meanwhile little Jimmy can walk into whatever electronics retailer he wants and pick up a PS4.

see

And? First two weeks are irrelevant now.

All humans alive have some degree of asymmetry on their faces. To have a perfectly symmetrical face would actually look unnatural and a bit creepy. So your argument is useless as your own face is asymmetrical as well.

I'm not sure, I bought it on launch day.

...

That happened with the WiiU. There is a great picture out there that I'm sure some kind user will post of a woman with like 30 WiiUs in the back of her car.

It's nice having more than one game to play.

Hoirzon zero dawn is an insult to life itself

>two threads

As if we didn't already know Horizon astroturfers are pathetic

"2x more then zelda"
Horizon - 3.4million
Zelda - 3.84million

I see you failed math class

You are fake news

>The "Sony Beats Microsoft and Nintendo" part is literally just saying the PS4 has sold more total units than the Switch

Holy FUCK this is retarded. So OP isn't lying, but specifically used that headline to make it look like it was saying "Horizon outsold Zelda" which it didn't.

>bought 5 Switches
>Scales 4, kept 1 for free

Damn it feels good

>"First two weeks are irrelevant now."
>After tells me to look at saying that BotW sold 2.76M copies in March
>Comparing how HZD sold in March is irrelevant
Are you for real?

XD

>title about beating MS & Nintendo is about PS4 console sales, not HZD
K, we know Sonyfags are weak to clickbait.

They're still seething in pain over their horrible E3. The damage control is through the roof.

fuck off

didn't you know that you have to cherrypick whichever thing is better for any given nintendo thing to talk about it?
>more youtube views on odyssey
>youtube views are more important
>better metacritic score for zelda
>metacritic is valid
>shitty score for arms, shitty sales numbers, low youtube views
>it's all about fun, you guys, if you have fun with a non-nintendo game you're obviously a shill and retarded

So the most hyped entry from a well established IP, sold only a meager 400k units more than a literally who IP from a literally who studio?

I...uhm......

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Enjoy your Wii U 2.0, suckers!!

Music to my ears. Scalpers deserve everything bad that happens to them.

blown the fuck awayyyyyyyyy

>3.4 million sales on a 60 million user base is pathetic
>4 million sales on a 100 million userbase isn't
Nintenbros are hilarious

>Grasping at straws to shit on the Switch

yeah, I'm sure that they only count switch versions and not also wii u versions.

I kindly ask you to remove this post friend.

I remember all the retards saying that launching HZD next to Zelda would kill it, turn it into the next Battleborn
>Biggest new IP launch Sony's ever had
>Multimillion seller
>Barely outsold by a new entry in a 30 year old franchise
>Only drops to $40 for a week as part of a summer sale by Sony
>B-B-BUT MUH EPIC BATTLEBORN COMPARISON XD

What are you even talking about

Nintendo fan who just bought a PS4 here. Horizon is a good game.

You realize that TEN million copies of a game is a gigantic amount right?

Symmetricism doesn't matter as much as having the parts of the controller you use the most in the more ergonomical, upper/raised primary position.

So having the left stick raised for 3d games is most important.

If anything, it proves that Zelda is the Battleborn in this situation. Who even talks about that shitty game anymore?

Why does it seem like almost all console war bullshit is instigated by sonygroes? Buyer's remorse?

Well but it's true. Zelda should have mopped the floor with HZD.

Yeah it was. I bought a ps4 right around then and it came with. After I player top much ds3 and bloodborne, I popped it in for a couple hours, and never went back to that movie. Just isn't my shit. It was so boring.

Sorry, let me correct
>3.4 million sales on a 60 million user base after ~three months is pathetic
>4 million sales on a 100 million userbase after ~six years isn't
Even worse.

People are using the 60 million userbase to say Horizon should have sold more. Skyward Sword had a 100 million userbase and hasn't even hit 4 million sales as of May 2017. Userbase means shit when the console is over-saturated with games to play. Horizon will likely have outsold the highest selling Zelda game by next year. Zelda games have never sold amazingly.

yes, but attractiveness is generally based on higher levels of symmetry of facial features. that being said, ur face looks like an xbox controller

Imagine how many Botw sales there will be this Christmas with people buying the system for Mario? Holy fucking shit my man it will be insane

BTW, I am buying a ps4 pro and uncharted 4 soon, but God damn HZD is shit and will be forgotten almost immediately

But the XB 360 controller is my favorite controller of all times

OP right now

Horizon should have mopped the floor with Zelda considering its on a 60 million install base

Because, despite sales of the Wii U, Nintendo is still a strong brand in gaming. People rather talk about and enjoy their franchises than discuss whatever cinematic experience Sony has coming out.

>BotW is going to sell 300 million copies this Christmas it's going to be AMAZEBALLS!
>Oh btw I'm totally buying a PS4 Pro so you guys know I'm not a Nintendo shill right?
