I remember the original Perfect Dark game for the Nintendo 64. My nephews had the game and the stupid rumble pack was required for that game which was annoying.

Plus the graphics were pretty horrible and back then I i didnt understand the game and how to start it. It was a poor mans version of Goldeneye which was the problem at the time back then

So the Switch numbers +18% up YoY according to the last NPD is fake news?

Switch sales are already down YoY and I expect the decline to continue. Zelda, Mario, Mario Kart and Smash Bros sell to the same exact people. Without a Wii Sports/Nintendogs/Brain Age fad game to bring in casuals Nintendo consoles will always have a ceiling.

Oh, I can totally see this happening.

Nintendo will release a few high-profile games (Zelda, Mario, Splatoon, Mario Kart and Smash Bros), and then sales will stop dead.

Those games obviously don't have legs - I mean, who would buy a Nintendo game 2+ months after it releases? These games definitely won't sell well at full price for the next few years.

And yeah, then the Switch will be completely dead in the water. Tens of millions of people won't buy Switches to play Pokemon or Fire Emblem next year. They definitely won't jump back on board when traditional big sellers like Animal Crossing or Yokai Watch get sequels. And a surprise Zelda sequel or any sequels to hit 3DS games wouldn't even make a splash.

Nah, you're right, the Switch is doomed. Nintendo might as well discontinue it now and go third party - Microsoft could use the IPs.

@papermario: People buy Mario Kart because it’s Mario Kart? Damn dude, you just blew my mind. :P
