The Switch has not had the sustained stock or the time to provide any numbers that back that statement up with certainty. They’re at 5 million units sold as of the last announced numbers, so until they break 13.5 million units, which is what Wii U sold, I don’t feel like it’s safe to be making any overly optimistic…

Let me ask you this then, what is the material level at which point it goes from “you wasted your time” to “the company lied to me and I should be upset”? If not this packet of sauce, it a discounted/free sandwich? A limited item that might be worth $10, $20? It seems to me like this is a statement that’s only based…

Something tells me you live next to the worst run McDonald’s in the world if you think they’re complete shit. Or you’re just ranting to troll people, which given some of your other comments is the more likely scenario.

Uh, with the exception of the Wii and Nintendo DS, which stand out as radically higher outliers, Nintendo has been on a literal downward trend of customers for pretty much their entire game making existence. Every other piece of hardware that they have put out has sold less than the previous. So I don’t think the few…

That was One More Day. Also, much of Peter’s attitude toward life and the people around him post that particular piece of character assassination.

If that’s the case and they wanted to make those few thousand fans happy, they could have done some web promotion where you signed up online and then randomly one day they sent it out to everyone who had signed up. Instead they made a big event out of it, got those thousands of people riled up to stand in line, and…

What reality do you live in? I’m not going to sit here and pretend they’re better than say Chick-Fil-A, which are essentially seasoned chicken chunks, but they’re nowhere near the garbage breading heavy chicken pancakes that Burger King puts out these days. And Wendy’s, while around the same quality chicken as…

Also, Amazon Prime pre-ordering or Best Buy game club membership takes 20% off buying a new game. If you know you want the game, it’s not hard to knock that price from $60 to $48 (pre-tax). Best Buy’s program works even long after release, so if they drop something to $20 on clearance it’s down to $16 for members.…

Well, it’s your loss if you want to consider a mistake from years ago a reason to quit buying comics from a company forever. I would have never picked up a Marvel comic again as of around 1996 if I kept that hard stance.

Having read a few of the manga volumes, it’s actually a bit more complicated. She’s called a “sleigh beggy” because her body both generates a ton of magic internally and then also absorbs it in high quantities from all of nature and the spirits/fae around her. If I remember right magicians in the universe typically…

Seriously, this is like being upset at any of the Slim console or handheld models that come out and happen to have bigger hard drives or some extra convenience feature that sure, would have made sense to be on the original, but clearly it was either too expensive to include at the time, didn’t have a chip that was…

You brought up a completely irrelevant situation that in no way compares in any aspect to the situation at hand where they have known demand from a previous iteration of a product and still didn’t make enough for pre-orders to last more than a few minutes and maybe half an hour at the crack of dawn on release day. No…

Are you seriously comparing a broken piece of crap game made at the height of the Atari bubble to the successor to a device that was absurdly under stocked to demand, and has what are considered to be even more classic iconic titles on it than the first model did? This is not an ET situation, this is a Nintendo…

Not making enough to cover more than minutes of pre-orders in the dead of night is probably the definition of bad business practices.

When you can’t order one online, and the recommendation is that you get out of bed at the crack of dawn and line up at a retail store in the hopes of getting 1 of a few dozen available, no, the launch is not “going okay”. They made minimal stock compared to demand again, online pre-orders were a complete crap fest,…

You should really check out DC Rebirth if you’re tired of the Marvel nonsense. Their trades have been very reasonably priced and if you’re willing to spend a bit, they just put out the expanded Rebirth hardcover collection which has the DC Universe Rebirth issue that sets up the current status quot, and the Rebirth…

That was Jonathan Hickman though, who is extremely good at building up a massive over-arcing plot that seemingly has all kinds of random interesting things happening at the start, but by the end has pulled all those threads together to a satisfying interlinked conclusion. He takes years to string all this together,…

Yeah, 616 present day Logan returning would have made a lot more of an impact if there wasn’t also Laura (and Gabby if you count her), Old Man Logan, and Ultimate Wolverine’s son all chilling in the main universe now. Daken is probably still loitering around somewhere as well. And out of all of them, Laura is the only…

Except they didn’t really turn him into Magneto 2.0. The big thing he was vilified for after Avengers vs. X-Men can be explained by the corruption of the phoenix force (his wife ate a star killing billions when it controlled a version of her). Afterwards he pretty much made all legitimately smart moves exclusively for…

Which is super obnoxious in-game, because the PS4 tries to take a screenshot for any achievement, and so a warning comes up on the screen saying it’s blocked every time it tries. I suspect this is Atlas being the overreaching arm of the Japanese side yet again, not understanding that no, the fact that Persona 5 can…
