blathering blatherskite!
Heavy is the crown
Right. The last 2 mainline pokemon releases and Metroid Prime 4 showed that’s not really the case
He not lying
The switch was my first Nintendo console since the og Nintendo I only bought it because of botw
Bought my daughter one too she is cool with her oled switch doesn’t care for switch 2
Just for anyone reading, when Meach says "nothing" he means Pokemon Violet and Scarlet... which released in 2022 during the holiday season.
Switch sold less hardware and software in 2023 with the release of zelda. Than it did in 2022 with the release of……nothing?
Sales “skyrocketed” huh?

Nintendo doesn’t make either of those games
That’s why Mario and Zelda get good reviews
Most people are cutting back on spending
I'm not gonna spend 4-500 dollars on a system when I got kids to feed

what about the zelda boost
What game is your daughter waiting for
Yeah. I'm holding out for the OLED version that I know is coming next year. But if it was a hundred cheaper I probably would have copped it off of an impulse buy. But the current price point has given me time to pause and not just buy new tech off rip like I usually do. It was the same with the PSVR 2.Switch 2 is also out of impulse buy territory. You could find sales on switch 1 for $249/299 with a game.
Almost 500 dollars before even getting a game is a lot, especially for a kid to walk around with. I know a lot of families that had multiple switch’s laying around the house in different colors and editions.
Now i don’t see a household having more than one. I’m also one of those people that doesn’t ever see himself paying over 300 dollars for a handheld so…

Yeah, the only thing that could make me reconsider is if that fromsoftware game hits and there’s another BOTW tier game coming but as of right now?
The Zelda boost happened in Q2—hardware sales jumped 13.9% the quarter it launched. The full-year numbers were down because the holiday quarter dropped 58% year-over-year, which Nintendo said was expected for a console in year 7. You're trying to erase a 3.91 million unit quarter because it doesn't fit your stan narrative.In november. You think that 1 month is what made the switch sell more for the entire year
what about the zelda boost
Why are you downplaying Zelda's boost? You just want to bicker for stan dopamine. Convo over

They need to convince themselves exclusives don’t matter, even on a platform most people primarily play only first party games snd Minecraft on lol
Big price drops on hardware happened that quarter as well.
