They once launched 3ds xl and a month prior to had said they won't be releasing any new HW models https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2021/01/where_to_pre-order_the_mario_red_and_blue_edition_nintendo_switch Ah that OK.

Well he posted some of the peoples angry responses to mario tamatar edition swtich somewhere in the video, i keep seeing angry people on FB also in comments on this switch model release so they are there dude. Of course many of us have been waiting forever to get the switch. And after 4 years into switch life span I'm not gonna buy a basically 2017 design and joycon drifting model.

Nintendo hai toh mumkin hai They can't compete with dudebro shooters, plus they have the cheapest system, hence need to make money off games - and you know the Indian market. FIFA, COD, BF mostly. Why waste so much energy for an undeveloped market ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are angry people everywhere if you start looking for angry people. Heck, people want to be angry at anything over the net. The system is tits. When you start playing, NOBODY sees the bezel size. You get immersed in the game. Dock or undock, all instant, all magical, and all super fun. The JC drift issue is over rated. I know because I've been using the console for 3+ years now. My console lies in the open. I live on ground floor, and home gets super dusty. Over 3 years, only 1 JC ever had drift, and now you can buy single JC as replacements. Even now, my console lies belly up on my table. No issues whatsoever. Edit: No drift issues with Pro controller.

Sony has cornered the Indian gaming scene. Some peeps have MS. Nintendo will always be associated as a kid's console, and we know that even kids dont want to be kids in India. They just want to play COD or GTA. It'll be a difficult sell unless they've dedicated demo areas and dedicated staff. Not to mention localising eshop, aligning with all GST and other laws, hardware support etc. All for a small base ? Nah. We are an immature market. Btw, did you check out the Etsy links ? They have some super talented sellers on the platform. Edited January 14, 2021 by Bird Bird Bird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendo is just salty that their 8-bit consoles were pirated as hell at the time and people used to buy terminator, mitashi and other replicas instead of OG nintendo consoles, they must really hate india by now since they never officially set foot here afterwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird Bird Bird Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 I remember my sister in law wanted to buy a console for her 6 year old daughter. I recommended Switch. The local shopkeepers recommended PS4 Pro. "Bahut powerful hai yeh". No prizes for guessing what they went with. I have no idea what a 5 year old will play on PS4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I regularly get asked by people at work for the same use case. I do tell them upfront switch games are costly and more importantly difficult to find unless they are willing to go digital.

But bhai at least they should increase the screen size and give it a 1080p screen, i have seen 2 switch owners from our pokemon group both their screen PQ seemed dull after using my note 10 and even a50 and a70 screens i feel switch PQ and colors are way to dull on the level of a moto g3 i have at home. I can never even bite the bullet and buy it, the screen is a turn off and most of my usage will be playing mario kart, pokemon, animal crossing by sleeping on my bed so the TV connection will only be used for Zelda, xenoblade etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NitroNeo Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Please think as a consumer we all know how nintendo operates. They might not even see game sales rising as they mostly depend on 1st party games, so they might fear not being able to sell new systems, but there are enough of us new switch buyers who really want a new switch, and like that kevin guy US switch owners are nuts they buy a special edition switch anyway so it's not like nintendo will lose money on it.
