Because your Ubisoft and out of touch

--Onilink--1388d ago

And seeing the Tom Clancy brand before the name only makes it look worse somehow, like it feels so incredibly out of place (which given all they have done with the brand so far its quite something)

lellkay1388d ago

it's what 47 year old game devs think sounds "cool" to 12 year olds.

Yppupdam1388d ago

yeah, more like some horn rimmed glasses wearing hipster with a sleeve tattoo and skinny jeans in marketing thinks is cool.

Can't velieve they unintentionally used an "XD" emoticon for their Tom Clanch game'd title

I have never played a Ubisoft game. I could care less about what Ubisoft does.

well, the switch 2 has two holidays in the us, thanksgiving and Christmas.

so id say its fairly possible. the rest of the world will also grab them

Abriael1d 18h ago

Yeah doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility as long as they have enough supply.

Si-Fly1d 8h ago

Do people buy each other games consoles for Thanksgiving? I’m in Europe and always assumed it was just Christmas where gifts were exchanged.

Skate-AK1d 8h ago

I don't think it's so much Thanksgiving, but that Black Friday is the day after.

darthv721d 7h ago (Edited 1d 7h ago )

That time is often referred to as the start of the Xmas shopping season. For the last few years, retailers would do 'black Friday' deals at various times throughout the year. While many still prefer to start their shopping in the mid to late November, others will just buy when they feel the time (and prices) are right for them.

i guess its more black friday, should have been more clear ha

Switch and Switch are a different kettle of fish. A sell out at launch by the diehards, strong sales, then the non diehards will be put off by the £75 ($99) games, including the stupid download cards which are topping £65 ($85). Not rocket science to work out how the Switch 2 is going to pan out. The PS5 has sold well, but games at £70, sales have been low. As game sales drop, prices will rise. Sony could knock out all their games for £40 and still make a killing selling more games. There's no denying that a gaming crash is looming.

Rancegamerx1d 4h ago

I agree, I don't see the Switch 2 selling anywhere near the numbers that these predictions suggest or what the general buzz is implying. While the initial sales will likely be strong, driven by diehard fans, I anticipate a gradual decline. It may not drop off immediately, but over time, sales will inevitably taper.

Not paying for something that's not worth more than the price it was advertised, which is $449 - $499.
