Who cares? Super old tech still getting news on its beta form? Lol what

YodaCracker612d ago

It may be super old tech, but it’s still the best selling console every week.

new player forget that games is about joy and fun ..not graphics and vasuals

ONly cause its selling to two different markets. I bet if the 3ds was still being made the switch wouldnt be doing as well. Im not saying it would sell bad but sales would be cut.

I still dont play my switch but its only because i hate the cheap joy cons, Ive had to replace so many I just stopped playing. Its a shame thats still an issue. It does have some games Id like to play though. Ps is still the king in my house and someday ill buy one of those pro controller or whatever. Ive bought a few of the character controllers they have and those joysticks suck to.

Onisama your spot on it isnt always about the graphics games make a system

i dont care about how much money makes; nintendo wii sold loads and it was a horrible console with tons of shovelware. Sales mean nothing. I want good visuals PLUS good gameplay. there arent even that many fun games on my switch; I've been on a dry spell for a while; waiting for BOTW 2 and will likely grab Xenoblade 3. This doesn't change that it is a shame to see these games held back by its extremely dated tech.

No reason botw 1 should have as much stutter as it did.

@QueenBee, I don't hate my switch, I hate how it's held back. that's all. It is 2 generations behind in tech.

Havent heard NX for a while. After the Wii U no one saw the switch’s success coming

The platform breakdowns really show how irrelevant xbox has come for selling software.

1 Hogwarts Legacy Switch 41%, PS5 26%, PS4 24%, Xbox 5%

2 EA Sports FC 24 Switch 34%, PS5 28%, PS4 26%, Xbox 12%

Yea, you can see why some developers and publishers are increasingly starting to skip XBox all together. Unless you're in a small minority of successful and highly played Gamepass games, you're pretty much taking a payout on your game just to rot and die on the service.

Not that surprising, the Switch has some killer exclusive titles, so people have to own a Switch to play them.

I’m part of the Wiiu numbers myself.

Which then make MK 8 a bit over 70 million!

phoenixwing14d ago

Maybe it's time I buy Mario kart for my switch. It's just so expensive atm

OtterX13d ago

The game has 96 tracks, how is that expensive for what you get? lol

Inverno13d ago

Gotta look into if you're really going to enjoy it long term. I bought it because of all the crazy MK Wii videos of people doing skips but found that MK8 was a lot more tame mechanically. Got boring pretty quickly, and the online last i checked wasn't very stable.
