Ig it depends on how close Switch 2 is to the original switch and if Nintendo decides to group them together in their reporting numbers like they do for the DS all the way up until the 3DS.
I think if there are no “Switch 2 cartridges” and it’s all just Switch Cartridges, with just Cartridges that need a Switch 2 to “unlock full performance” it’ll probably be grouped the same. That’s how it was with the DS, all DSs could play all DS cartridges with just limited performance or missing features (e.g. a DSi “enhanced” game would work for the most part on a DS Lite). Up until the 3DS, at that point the cartridge format changed and only the 3DS could play 3DS carts and thus Nintendo breaks it away into its own sales numbers
That’s what I meant by “WiiU style failure”. If the Switch 2 doesn’t really seem like a worthwhile upgrade, people may keep on buying Switches. My Switch just broke, so I’m hoping it’s not a dud.
Not all markets will jump immediately to the newest consoles. Brazil for example is lagging behind greatly when it comes to video game console due to high taxes and poor wages. PS2 and PS3 are still popular there. Even Sega Genesis was sold in Brazil up until recently (yes, newly manufactured Genesis).
Pirated ones, probably, though I doubt anyone other than the dear leader is allowed to play, because “western propaganda”. Not like you’d have many people in there with a good PC anyway. Or even electricity.
as of now; I can’t play any game that requires a network connection (Basically making all the money I put into MW3 over the last 6 months even more worthless)
Until through some "error" ab account with games gets trashed. The reaction of Ubisoft's social media team is what worries me. They didn't go "no worries folks, this is just for empty accounts and we give warning even then". They went "we don't want this to happen, but y'all make us do it because you don't log in like we want you to".`
It’s sick that people are threatening developers over a game. I’m glad they got the guy mentioned in this article, but for the devs who make the game and receive threats… I hope they get some justice.
That’s dumb as shit, why does Microsoft even allow mature games on their platform if their platform doesn’t allow mature content. Sure, record blood and guts, but dont show a nipple or a penis unless it’s exploding in a shower of gore!!! What a fucking disgusting standard we have that gore and violence are celebrated but anything sexual, even simple nudity is some kind of felony offense.
