How about this… Not “buying” a game that’s disabled if it’s no longer online…

jordanlund, do games w Nintendo’s Anti-Consumer Anti-Piracy Measures Also Reduce The Value Of The Switch 2
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

For point 1, this sounds like a class action waiting to happen.

You buy a Nintendo console, Nintendo says you broke the rules and bans that console, now non-Nintendo games won’t work on it because it’s banned from reaching online services.

“2124-4508”

I’m going to spoiler tag all the Nintendo legal-ese because it’s A LOT.

It boils down to this console is banned from logging in online. So a couple of questions:

  1. Do you HAVE to be online to play Switch 2 games?
  2. If the ban is correct for user violations, why ban the hardware? Why not ban the account?

I kinda had the opposite experience, I had been a PC gamer for years before the Xbox came out, Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Aliens Total Conversion, Hexen, Rise of the Triad, Quake, Unreal…

By then I had kind of burned out on FPS, so when I heard about Halo I was like “I dunno… another FPS…”

Then I played a demo in the store and was like “Shut up and take my money!”

Speaking of consoles here.

Valve really operates in a different market from Microsoft or Sony, but what hurt them was a couple of things:

  1. Repeatedly skipping Gamescom essentially told Sony “Yeah, we don’t care about Europe.” And the sales numbers show it. Sony owns Europe.
  2. No differential between console and PC. Launching the same game at the same time on PC and Xbox doesn’t incentivize people to a) buy games on Xbox or b) develop games on Xbox. Why bother if it’s on PC the same day?
  3. Focusing on digital vs. physical takes games out of stores. On a recent trip to Target they had a nice big Playstation section and a nice big Switch section. Hey? Where are the Xbox games?

jordanlund, do games w Hesitating getting a Switch 2 (1st game console in 15 years)...
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

Every piece of news on the Switch 2 made it sound less and less impressive.

I’m the opposite of you, I pretty much buy EVERY console and I’m skipping the Switch 2 for now.

  1. Price is too high.
  2. Game prices are too high.
  3. Cartridges aren’t games, they’re download keys.
  4. Demo that should have been included is a paid demo.
  5. Features are pay gated after 1 year (camera).

If you absolutely need to entertain the 7 year old, get a Switch OLED. It’s a better deal.

jordanlund, do games w New report suggests third-party Switch 2 game sales are "below estimates"
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

There are 3rd party Switch 2 games? 🤔 I thought it was all 3rd party ports of Switch 1 games…

jordanlund, (edited ) do games w Did nightreign flop?
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

From the Wiki:

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elden_Ring_Nightreign

“released for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on May 30, 2025. It received generally positive reviews and sold 3.5 million units.[1]”

So, first, it doesn’t matter how many concurrent players it has, it sold 3.5 million so it’s not a flop.

Second, it was released on 5 platforms, you are looking at concurrent players on Steam only.

I’d consider it at $40. See you on Black Friday!
