please stop writing so many words and just accept that comparing the success of ANY game on a last-gen console with that same game on a current-gen console is fundamentally absurd.

wicka posted:

i don't care. i really don't. you're just shifting the goalposts at this point because you said something stupid. the fact is that 360 and PS3s releases are utterly meaningless in this context, period.

wicka posted:

doesn't matter. irrelevant in every way. they're games that get dumped out to prop up last-gen consoles as low-cost options. cannot fathom why you thought it necessary to bring them up.

I can understand the desire to keep localisation testing back until the localisation is complete, but that's not going to prevent you from testing everything else, and then do some quick regression tests once the localisation is in.


Same distribution network. The NES Classic is an example of Nintendo of America's inability to get sufficient numbers of units in store shelves in time for launch, and there's little reason to think that these issues will be resolved in time for the Switch.

I 100% believe her info that the localization is arduous and won't be done until late December but the idea that the game wouldn't be able to come out three months from then is quite frankly ridiculous.

Considering the number of computer janitors and STEMlords 'round these parts it's fair to assume most of us work for companies with near as many or more than Nintendo's 5,000 employees. I work for a company with 30,000 employees and the stupidity of our corporate culture does in fact manifest itself in similar ways on product lines that are less related than the NES Mini and the Nintendo's Witch. You haven't even considered the possibility that you're wrong, have you?

people were arguing with me about the footage in the switch trailer even though that, too, was not a debate, was not real footage, no matter how many times people wanted to complain and fret about it. these aren't debatable facts just because you're too childish to accept them and can't stop replying.

It's blowing my mind that you can't seem to grasp the difference between a functional vs. product group organizational structure. Nintendo is organized functionally, btw.

You said that the NES Mini didn't have enough units shipped for everyone who wanted to get one before Christmas, and people who couldn't get one for Christmas would decide just not to get one.

That's solved by the Switch launching in March instead of November.
