It's not about the Switch anymore. I already said Nintendo won.
Let's see if they continue to fukup the follow-up systems after any kind of success.
It only took them this long to realize maybe having a Zelda and Mario launch in year 1 is a good thing.

Their 2018 is going to be interesting. They need to keep their first party output flowing. Every quarter is going to need something because the quality of their third party support makes even less sense now in the face of the 1X. The portability angle doesn't carry enough weight.

Has anyone played Rain from Sony's Japan Studio? I think I might start that soon.

Nintendo takes 2/3rds of the US on the back of portability.
Meanwhile at Sony: "there's no market for Vita tho, buy an Xperia, U can enjoy waterproofing."

Smash
Kirby
Metroid

Top 20 for October:
Kinda surprised at how well that Middle Earth game did. I must be way out of the loop because I heard almost nothing about it.
Finally, looking at the sports field, you might be surprised to learn that it's Take-Two's NBA franchise, not EA Sports' Madden or FIFA, that's seen the most success this year. "After 2 months in market, NBA 2K18 becomes the best-selling sports game for the 12-month period ending October 2017. NBA 2K18 remains the best-selling sports game year-to-date and is now the second best-selling game of the year overall," Piscatella said.

yeh looks like all the things are going to be progression based.
Still not giving them money, fuck that. I'm not a fucking MUG.

Didn't see that one coming, not from EA, not from any of the big publishers.
BBC, CNN picked it up. Belgium lawmakers took an interest. They're worried about being regulated.

They're going to sell you loot boxes again at a later date. It's right there in their statement.
They're not even stripping them out.

EA gotta be mad as fuck that they are the ones who got smacked up for this when the whole gaming community been running pockets for half a decade now

Yep. I hope that box that they opened stays that way. Those predatory practices should have been looked at.
By EldritchTrapStar Go To PostYep. I hope that box that they opened stays that way. Those predatory practices should have been looked at.EA fucking it up for everyone else is the only way this could've ended
By blackace Go To PostMario and Zelda are their biggest shots
They're not though. IIRC 2D Mario generally outsells 3D Mario. All kinds of stuff outsells Zelda - though I'll admit, BotW probably broke the mould for expectations for that series. Pokemon, Mario Kart, Animal Crossing & probably Splatoon now should be their biggest selling franchises.

kirby?
Kirby's not a blockbuster, but consistently sells way better WW than you'd think.
By Smokey Go To Posti can now check out Battlefront II with no shameDidn't I see you online yesterday?
I'm not much of a reviews person, and I've never heard this guy before (it's not Angry Joe), but I found his take on Assassin's Creed Origin's to be pretty fair, concise and well presented which I appreciate.
Sounds like the perfect $15 Gamefly sales pickup in six months or next summer. I believe a few here have mentioned how attractive looking a game it is.

u didn't catch me on no bf2, stop it
Much as I feel like Destiny 2 could give me more for my money least I don't have to pay for my shadow shot.
By DY_nasty Go To Postout here beasting on these naboo streets
cut the check i win
you lads know this microtransaction p2w shit being gone is temporary, right? EA just managing the outrage for launch. It's working as mugs be spending their money thinking the game economy is fixed when it's still fucked and will be fucked even more in a few weeks when the crystals and progression is back.
By blackace Go To PostMario and Zelda are their biggest shots
Not really. Neither 3D Mario nor Zelda (esp. Zelda) have been the best sellers on any platform since the N64. The Switch currently sells to 20-35 yo male adults which are the prime demo for those two games. If they want to to reach 25-30 million next year they have to get out titles in 2018 that can surpass them in sales.
Smash Bros, 2D Mario, a new Mario Kart, Animal Crossing and Pokemon (as publishers) can be bigger than either.

By HottestVapes Go To Postthey didn't remove them, they put them on stand-by.

Used to play so much tabletop Battletech back in high school. Had painted miniatures, the whole thing. Did they get the licenses for the Japanese mechs in this one, or is it all the later stuff?
Supposedly an ad for a Polish transport company but I'm going to pretend it is a trailer for the Truck Simulator series:
I need to get back to Hitman. Must have slent 10 hours in Paris doing all the challenges and then I hit Sapienza and got way overwhelmed.
this motherfucker really used a charge on the fucking garden to send an axe up to the 4th floor, catch it while it bounces off the wall and kill a dude
i cant
what
i cant
what
By Mariosalic Go To PostI only bought Paris and played that for 5-10h and never got another one. Which one is worth to get?The whole season might still be on sale for $20
I've heard that Sapienza is the best. From what I played before I put it on hold, it was like 5x bigger than Paris, maybe more.
