@RatterreeDaniel @joel_dowell @shadowpiplup393 @NintyPrime You're also a drama queen.

@joel_dowell @shadowpiplup393 @NintyPrime I'm a casual Nintendo gamer. I play on it rarely.

Bloomberg: Nintendo’s stock price is nose diving and investors think the price of Switch 2 needs to increase to stop the drop. Nintendo: Announces they are raising the price. Nintendo stock:

@80espiay @RatterreeDaniel @NintyPrime Yes, he eagerly wants to pay that 50 dollars more. Buying it now while the price is still lower is anti-consumeristic and anti-american.

@RatterreeDaniel @NintyPrime so you're getting it next year then?

@RatterreeDaniel @shadowpiplup393 @NintyPrime Everyone knows that a Nintendo Switch 2 has an expire date if you don't play it for months while waiting a videogame you like...

@shadowpiplup393 @NintyPrime Nothing all that interesting on it right now. Was only going to get it in preparation of Pokemon next year.

@NintyPrime Bloomberg really knows what investors likes!

@pogbum4040 @johniibo Really? What a lucky kid, your daddy must be working for Rockstar Games... Are you playing it on Xbox Series X|S or PS5?

@Olpus @johniibo gta 6 is right there

People will look you dead in the eye and say the Nintendo Switch 2 library sucks

@SonicHero3D The problem is this is a "fifth game from the ground up". The previous work at Bandai Namco has been discarded: gameinformer.com/2019/01/25/nin…

This game DID NOT need 8 YEARS of development. In hindsight, knowing what happened behind the scenes, Nintendo were better off just letting Bandai Namco finish production and have Retro Studios work on a fifth game from the ground up.

@ZhugeEX We're living in the best timeline ever.

"We have CCP employees going to the US and being questioned over the name." Trying to imagine a TSA agent seeing someone from Iceland and thinking that because they work for a company called CCP Games, they must be part of the Chinese Communist Party.

@AgoristShop @sunamfoteros Dipende dai punti di vista. Per me, una pazza.

@Olpus @sunamfoteros Chi è?

L'impresa privata non è un modello economico vincente per il 62% degli italiani

@Banebro22 @Genki_JPN Those numbers are outdated (in 2024 were just 49 millions of PSN users on PS4) and now are far less (no more first party games). Anyway, why those people should buy a PS5 with GTA VI at launch if they aren't interested in upgrading (or they can't)? GTA V is much better on PS5.

@Olpus @Genki_JPN There are still something like 50-60 million active PS4 consoles online right now. A good portion are playing GTA5 online. Those people will buy a PS5 to play GTA6. There's a bunch of kids coming of age every year whose parents will buy them a PS5 around the holidays and GTA6

Sony PlayStation FY2025 Q4 Financial Results! • PS5 units sold - 1.5M • Lifetime PS5 units - 93.7M • Full game software units - 74.6M • First party software units - 5.8M • Digital Download Ratio - 85% • Monthly Active Users - 125M

@AnAverageGamerX Coming from Dring, this to me is a softer version of «Nintendo should go multiplatform».

Translation: Make Switch 1 edition of all your releases so we can emulate them all….

@AgoristShop @sunamfoteros Ah, pensavo zero... Che delusione: così giovane e promettente, poi fa piangere Ayn Rand.

@Olpus @sunamfoteros È evidente che dal grafico si denoti la spesa in difesa. Interpretazione corretta. Il vietnam e la cina sono piu neoliberiste che gli usa e l’ue. Dunque vorrei quella spesa pubblica li

@pogbum4040 @johniibo False: Concord has been retired.

@Olpus @johniibo the ps5 library will forever be far better lol

@AgoristShop @sunamfoteros Appunto.

@Olpus @sunamfoteros Guardi che è compresa nella spesa pubblica

@AgoristShop @sunamfoteros Concordo con lei, amico pacifista: gli Stati Uniti d'America non dovrebbero spendere così tanto in armi.

@Olpus @sunamfoteros sempre il neoliberismo

@2Wireg @DJK1NG_Gaming You can bet the Switch is weaker than the Xbox Series S (but it's not more powerful than a PS4 Pro. Actually the Xbox Series S has a weaker GPU): it's a nine year old portable hardware, after all.

@Olpus @DJK1NG_Gaming The switch is weaker than a xbox series S lmao barely more powerful than a ps4 pro so its already beyond 6 years

Nintendo is giving people time to save up or make decision or buy a Switch 2 now before $50 increase worldwide in Sep 1. PS and Xbox however has been doing just a week noticed. Even though didn't really matter for Xbox since Xbox hardware sales are so low but impulse buy for PS5.

@pogbum4040 @johniibo Someone that thinks that a one year old console should have a better library than a six years old console is clever?

@Olpus @johniibo Retard?

@Eldonchorizo_ @NintendoAmerica So you want this, but with a Tegra T239 "Drake" powering it...

Nintendo should sell a Dockless Switch 2 with no Dock No HDMI Cable. For those that don’t play their Switch 2 docked and sell it for $399 to reduce unnecessary costs. I’m one of those that only plays docked once in a blue moon. 90% of my gaming is handheld only. @NintendoAmerica

@Profitmargined @NintyPrime Nice idea, pal! Call me the next time you're selling something.

@NintyPrime Glad I sold it then.

Pricing for Switch 2 will be increasing globally. In Japan, it begins later this month with a 10,000 yen increase. For us in the United States, the price begins September 1st, with a $50 USD increase in price. NSO prices are also increasing for the second time ever, but only in Japan and South Korea. Last time it was parts of South America and Central America. This is rather unfortunate, but for many not all too surprising. As for why September 1st instead of this month? My guess would be they assume they have enough stock already here, to last until then. The economics consoles exists in right now are extremely unfavorable.

@NintyPrime The Switch (especially the Lite) should just be discounted and sold as a budget handheld. But at the moment it's impossible, the world economy is in shambles...

This is to me, an extremely asinine take. In two fiscal years they project to sell 36m+ consoles (5m ahead of Switch, launch aligned) and he thinks they should pivot back to switch 1? Make it make sense.

@ZhugeEX Those were the times...

Fun Fact: Nintendo released the Game Boy Advance in the US in June 2001 for $99. In January 2002, seven months later, Nintendo announced it would lower the price of the Game Boy Advance to $79 as a result of production efficiencies and to spur mass market adoption.
