It was by far their biggest market.. outside of when the Wii was popular. WiiU flopped like shit.. literally only sold 14M Nintendo folded the handheld market into the traditional market... and thus Switch is successful. But it's success is based on the fact that it's serving TWO markets. If it was a traditional console only... there would be no 60M Switches sold at this point... NOT EVEN CLOSE. Deal with the facts 14 minutes ago, Goukosan said: Yes the Hybrid nature of the Switch is its major selling point.... That's the entire point of the Switch.... the flexibility of a hybrid.... it took you 3 years to realize this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I said it helped it break records. These are the kinds of games that sell well to Nintendo's bread and butter... the handheld market. My whole fucking point... is those 60M Switches out there... are because of the handheld market. That market is propping up the Switch numbers to make it look more impressive than it actually is. As ONE product serving TWO markets... fuck, it should be selling even better. AC is a console franchise brah Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They did so because they could no longer compete in the traditional market...... Nobody bought a WiiU and it was the failure that made Nintendo realize there was no point in making a device specifically for that market anymore. Nintendo failed.

It's Hilarious the semantics you're going through to say the Switch isn't a success Nintendo just broke the record that Sony just made a few days ago. Both are extremely successful. Lmfao at you trying to downplay that. Edited August 9, 2020 by Goukosan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Both are very extremely successful. Lmfao at you trying to downplay that. I'm not saying it's not a success... I'm saying it's not THE success that you guys like to think it is... because it's essentially taken over Nintendo's market. When you guys compare it to traditional consoles like PS4 and XO.... you're comparing a product that serves a much larger overall market of gamers. And it's that reason why a lot of people call it the "me too" sidekick console... If Nintendo was TRULY successful they would be selling 50M consoles and about 50M handheld's at this point. They didn't GROW the market.. they basically just folded them into one another. Sheep running around acting like this and that... lmao Quote Link to post Share on other sites
