I was going to say not-so-secretly, but apparently you have a lot of people fooled, even if unintentionally.

I have been playing Mario Kart Battle Mode for the past few hours. It is beyond amazing. (Shine Thief is my favorite mode followed by the coin rush). Battle mode in this game is unreal.

LOL!

Well anyways, I'm glad that MK8DX has made a ton of "core" gamers salty on the Switch. I understand that it's a port, but a port from Nintendo's worst selling mainline console in history that 3/4 of Wii U owners have. Good thing I never bought the DLC on the Wii U, I had a feeling that they would make a full package version. For those haterz

Pokemon has been a fad for over 21 years, as well as the NES for over 30 years. ;)

Also @charizard1605 MK8DX is capable of LAN parties, which is not done on the Wii U version

Yeah it's the biggest game since Zelda for the Switch. People be thirst for content.

Although I think the Switch's sales have just in general been more healthy then the WiiU's. Just look at sales for Lego City.

I think Switch's final sales figures will end up somewhere between the Wii U and the Xbone's. Not bad for a hybrid gimmick console for kids and metros.

@FireEmblem_Man: Well there are a shitload of Switch's on eBay, usually selling for a higher-than-retail price. The scalper theory might hold water..

Lol, this crazy thread. :P

ANYWAY... regardless whether it's consumers or scalpers (though I greatly doubt even a fourth of the Switch's total sales are tied up on eBay or Craigslist), this is all profit for Nintendo. Even the scalpers are contributing to Nintendo's bottom line with their own purchases.

So no matter how you spin it, at the end of the day, a Sale is a Sale.

MS is in trouble. With PS4 and Switch selling like crack I don't know how they expect Scorpio to make a big splash. Looks like Switch is stealing all the Scorpio thunder ?.

Mario Kart 8 is fantastic on all fronts. The best in the series, but there is still that ever present issue. If I had any say in the matter I'd fix the game by removing the coin item and, of course, the blue shell.

Seriously, how long will it take for Nintendo to realize the blue shell is a bad design choice from every single possible angle. If they removed it, everyone would rejoice. There has never been a good argument for keeping that thing around.

Disgusting, hopefully this fad goes away soon. Seeing Nintendo go out of business would be one of the things that could make me the happiest person alive. I am so sick of fanboys/girls waving sales all the time.

They just need to go out of the hardware business for the home consoles. Everything else is fine with me. The home console space is currently being polluted with Nintendo hardware.

When the gaming library is this limited, anything can, and will drive "insane" demand. I bet you a bunch of people bought Zelda even though they never cared about the series. Why? Because its that or nothing *cough* i mean, 1-2 Switch.

Why the hell will anyone buy something when the library is limited? You literally defeated your own argument within one sentence of the original, and what's more, Pedro, in all his eagerness to trip over himself to take a shit on Nintendo, ended up making a fool of himself as well.

Okay, so maybe your post wasn't a complete loss.

From the moment we found out Switch is gonna be both handheld and home console, I knew it's gonna be a massive hit. This is with just a very few games, imagine how it'll sell once it gets more.

Yeah, it was an incredible move. Sadly, some people are too narrow minded to see :(

most people? its just pedro and one or 2 standard-douche cow accounts.

Most of these are by scalpers, not real sales. Sorry sheep.

You have a source to back up your claim?

Why keep replying to trolls? Ignore them, they'll go away.

I am a troll for telling the truth? Can't handle the truth? Don't like the reality that scalpers buy them up and sell them at a mark up? Did you forget they did the same to the NES classic? Keep taking pot shots, won't change facts.

Prove it.

There should be a rule about making people mods that are also fanboys. Thought they learned there lesson with casey wagner.

The fact that the usual idiots are starting to bring back the "just a fad", "it won't last" bullshit is proof enough that Nintendo is killing it with the Switch. The amount of salt that will submerge this forum in the near future is going to be entertaining.

Oh, btw, AtariKidX has gone missing again it seems. Hope he's alright ^^

Awww, you don't have to go through all that effort! If you feel a mod is abusing their position, you should just let the site admin know, I'm sure they'll look into it for you :)

After the wii, then the wiiu, how can anyone think this is nothing more then a fad? Time will tell but I have no trust in nintendo, they release a handful of great games every gen, but thats not enough the console ends up being a dust magnet most of the time.
