They know they gonna sell every single unit they can make instantly.
Yup. NS2 is going to explode once it hits shelves. How many units do you think it will sell from June 5th to December 31st?

Nintendo confirmed no Hall effect joysticks, supposedly best for anti drift. Nintendo said they rebuilt the sticks from the ground up and claims they should not drift!!
Nintendo has been manufacturing controllers for how long? If they say they fixed the drift issue. I'm going to wait and see.
I'm curious if we will get an increased sale price on Nintendo published titles. The lowest they go I think is 40 or 45 dollars for switch. So it's either wait for it to go on sale for that magic number, or buy it at launch.

Oh, new Joycons has tech similar to Hall Effects! This is nothing new then. Nintendo isn't going to pay royalties if they don't have to. They will build their own.
Listened to kit and Krista former Nintendo pr today and they say Nintendo botched the messaging. Especially the price release.

Depends on if they can keep up with demand.
Let's not kid ourselves. We all know this is going to be a shit fest for two years.
I hope not but you never know. I'm kinda hoping that this won't be since it's the first real launch post-Covid. I am encouraged that there will be midnight launches nationwide which is awesome seeing as scalpers can't game the system if you actually have to show up and wait in a line. But yeah if it catches fire (and I think it will) it might be hard for Nintendo to keep up. I am encouraged by Nintendo's strict requirements for preorders online -- don't think any bots will be getting past that.
Yea you don't have to be a PR executive to realize this release was screwed. I think they got rid of a field general like Reggie and replaced him with a soldier with Bowser. Nintendo of Japan needs to be saved from itself. They don't know how to communicate out of Japan (and might not know how to communicate in Japan either)
The problem will be from parties selling Switches that aren't Nintendo. They don't care and will happily sell their entire stock to bots by scalpers.
We really need regulations to stop this. Bot scalping is also destroying the ticket industry. Who knows if it will ever stop because nothing gets done until big business suffers and this is only affecting the consumer.
Pre-Orders have to be at least before may 8th when Nintendo starts batching out their invites right? I'm curious to see if the pro controllers go up in price. I think those are made in china still.

Super!Time to rebrand the Switch as a family computer system![]()
So we get Mario Kart as the launch bundle, why are people complaining that Welcome Tour is not a pack in?

Nintendo knows they can charge what they want. Y'all cucks (myself included) will pay the price.
Nintendo's big mistake with the Switch 2 is this:
They are trying to integrate customers deeper with online, download, temporary ownership of games. They want you connected, they want you subscribing. My concern is that physical collectors will suffer further, not able to own a "full" game on the cartridge/disc.
Gamers deserve what they're getting. Switch 1 games were already around 50% digital and Sony is around 80%. PC obviously is at 100%. It's like with paid online, if people rejected it then it wouldn't exist.
If they ever go all digital or even gimp physical with required downloads for their games it will be a big mistake. I believe they understand this at least enough to never get rid of physical options.
I have 50+ switch games on game card and none of them are missing parts of the game and require download.Physical is increasingly pointless from an ownership standpoint, but I suspect they know its value. They didn't come out with a cartridgeless variant of the Switch 2, after all. Yet.
