I asked my oldest son if he wanted one as a Final high school graduation gift and that nikka gave me the :mjtf: and proceeded to give me all the reasons he like :camby:

- something about the proprietary cord and how using a non Nintendo cord will Brick your shyt and costs 200 to fix
- online system still janky
- always online DRM
- way overpriced
- games ain't there
- screen worse than his OG switch (Questioned why not OLED at that price)
- not a big Mario Kart fan
- Joycons having stick drift out the box

nikka had me like :dead: and he's been a big Nintendo guy all his life so far. Did get him a gaming laptop 3 Christmases ago so he's more into Steam and console

Said he's buying a steamdeck instead :heh:

Even he tired of Nintendo's shenanigans :russ:
So the little homey you once had as your avi when he was born, that's who is graduating or you have a younger son?

Glad to hear that there appears to have been a decent amount at launch, wherein you could just walk in and purchase one at many stores.

Was just about to say that it's because the Nintendo switch 2 roll out is what it looks when it's organic.

Online the system is trash and no one wants it, IRL people are dropping 500 like it's no big deal.


What's going to happen is Nintendo is gonna drop a banger for the holiday season and of course around that time there will be a actual shortage of consoles.


The switch 2 is currently more of a upgrade for users with a switch 1 and people that don't want to worry about having to try to snag one later especially with the potential of price increases at any point with how things going in the economy.

I thought the economy was fukked up because of Trump? I thought we were in a recession? I thought the job market was bad?

Where are people getting the money to get a Switch 2? I can barely pay my bills.

They saved up or they threw it on a credit card.

Donkey Kong next month, Metroid Prime 4 and Kirby Air Riders coming this year, holiday slate yet to be unveiled.

Ya'll act like this launch lineup is the end of the platform lineup.

Imagine paying 500 plus accessories to play Prime 4 which looks like it could run on a ps3 :dead:

Another kart racer, this time kirby flavored :wow:

It just seems fiscally irresponsible to just casually drop $500 on something only to return it shortly thereafter. You guys don't put too much thought into your purchases. Just impulse buys like a woman.

If you can buy a 800 dollar pro console in hopes of upscaled games, I don't see the how people are having a hard time understanding why a system that's half about half the price, has more exclusives, is mobile and does the samething is selling.

:manny:

People do that shyt all the time, so it’s pointless to condone others in this thread for it.

At least he realized from the jump that it wasn’t for him unlike others who wait until it’s too late to make that realization and can’t take it back.
