Ahh yeah I forgot, a cross gen indie game that's on one of the biggest platforms from last gen is a huge selling point for the Switch 2.
Another Dumb23 post.

Call it blasphemy.....but I think Nintendo needs a new IP or two.
Not just the same old Mario, Zelda shyt but something completely different. Like a Horizon ZD/FW or a Ghost of Sushi.
Y'all got tight when manz joked about exclusives, then your buddy duck was on some "they aren't the right exclusives" and you agreed.Get out of here.
Or how about... you can walk and chew gum? Everything isn't just black and white. There's nuance, something you guys love to pretend you don't understand. It's not ONE thing that is the cause in cutting hardware. I said it's more likely a multitude of reasons including games but you're trying to pretend that a Mario Kart game(one that's said to not even be the best one yet) and a DK game is enough to sustain the console especially when nothing else majorly has been announced meanwhile the Switch 1 already had several hits with more announced in the pipeline by this time.
I can't continue this convo in seriousness if you're going to pretend that Mario Odyssey, Zelda BOTW, MK8 Deluxe, Splatoon 2 and then a new Smash Bros game is somehow the same as what's going on now. Y'all acting like we said MK and DK is ass. I'm just saying the state of the economy isn't having that same effect on PS5 for some reason. Hell you see more people buying PS5 Pros right now.
Now you want to talk about nuance when out the gate I said it's not so much the games but the economy and industry.
I asked if it's the games that's the issue why wasn't it an issue for the Xbox and PlayStation 5... I want to highlight Xbox since y'all like to throw out console warring to try to take away from any points being made...
And you brought up with switch and it release year as if it was a next generation console. Which why even do that when the switch 2 already has out paced the switch in 9 months by almost double. Like what are we even debating here?!?
I don't know if you remember the launch of the switch but people weren't happy with just Zelda and ports from the wii u for a few months. And it was right about this time that the cadence started to pick up.
But we not going to act like Xenoblade Chronicles 2, splatoon 2 and arms and all the games that are now in retrospect loved, were getting the same kinda appreciation then as they are now.
Just like ya in here brushing over pokipedia dudes was doing with Xenoblade 2.
But just like always hindsight is 20/20

Both high critical reception and splatoon 2 is a 10 million seller
Snd that’s inbetween a Mario and Zelda!
lol so exactly proves our point. Outside of dk and Mario kart which were launch titles where are the big sellers or critical darlings???
Pokopia would be great alongside another mario
You posted it sillythat wasn't my quote
The way the sony cult clings to their cac tweet narratives is absolutely astonishing. nikkas will move the goalposts to jupiter instead of just admitting the things resetera told them may be wrong.
Again y'all pick and choose titles based on what y'all think is cool or see trending.
Meanwhile the Nintendo switch 2 game that has zero threads here also in 4 days.. of it's release has sold 2.2 million copies with no console bundle or special fanfare...
News Release : Mar. 12, 2026 "Global Sales of Pokémon Pokopia for Nintendo Switch 2 Surpass 2.2 Million in First Four Days"
Press release of Nintendo Co., Ltd.
www.nintendo.co.jp
As for the 9 month switch 2 line up sofar we got
Mario kart at release
Donkey Kong July
Kirby air riders in November... which has sold 2 million copies (already about to pass Xenoblade Chronicles 2)
Pokopia in March.
And Yoshi in May, and depending on when fire emblem drops it just my make year 1...
as an example of what people here have been saying defending the Switch 2's current output
So stans?
You trying to make this far more complicated than it actually is.Y'all got tight when manz joked about exclusives, then your buddy duck was on some "they aren't the right exclusives" and you agreed.

Pretend that the Switch 2 was Sony's console. It'll all make sense.
