I remember camping outside of Best Buy for the Xbox 360 launch. We froze myself, my mom and my uncle tapping out taking turns warming up in his jeep, with our dunkin donuts warm drinks and hand warmers. We ended up being 2 people behind the last console sold. They only had 15 consoles. The next day we randomly went into a Target and they were setting them out in the middle of the floor in the entertainment section. My favorite launch console memory.

There was one poor, older-sounding woman, who called due to wondering what happened to the Madden game she ordered for her grandkid because it never came to her house. My friend had to explain to that poor woman that she signed up for a PlayStation Network account, and bought a digital game, not a physical game.

I do think that they will be able to manage the scalping situation. If their solution isn't going to make 2x or 3x more consoles then maybe they can take some pre-orders on their site themselves and then send it out when they are ready to ship them. The key thing here is they can limit purchasers to something like 1 per account or one that has been active for more than a month or two, to try and stop scalpers from just making a bunch of new accounts to mass buy them.

Maybe ship one console per address and not allow another console to ship to that address for a certain amount of time (unless it's a replacement console). Of course, scalpers work every retailer that they can, so even "one per address" isn't much of an issue for scalpers. Perhaps the thing to do is work with resell sites to take down reseller pages as they go up.

The supply of switch successor systems is like a liquid that will flow into bot-assisted resellers’ shopping carts. Increased supply alone will not simply not work. Nintendo needs to offer an opportunity for each Nintendo Network ID to purchase a reserved system over week one…or something like that.

So your implementation doesn’t exactly stop scalpers from scalping. It’ll simply slow them down and force them to come up with another way to obtain the console. Not that your idea is bad but Nintendo will have to weight the pros vs cons. Such as slowing down sales to a crawl to fight scalping while potentially aggravating legitimate and on the fence buyers. Slow sales also slow down adoption.

The harder you make it to scalp an item (limiting purchase numbers, in person only, etc) the fewer the number of people willing to jump through those hoops. And because of the hoops, and taking more time, it's not like the few who do go through the trouble will make more money. They also have a smaller market of people to sell to because most (or at least more) consumers can purchase directly from a retailer without the markup. It's worth implementing these sorts of controls, even if they don't completely eliminate scalping. It still helps people get the console at MSRP. That's the goal, not necessarily eliminating scalping.

I’m still in the camp that it won’t be releasing in 2025. Nintendo announced they would be announcing details of the new system this fiscal year. But if you look at every previous system launch, they reveal these details a year plus before it hits the shelves. I still think it’ll be released in 2026, and it’ll give markets time to adjust. There is always uncertainty and panic whenever there is an upcoming election I the USA. My financial advisor advised me how the markets would go into panic leading into the upcoming election.

I played dozens of hours in Crazy Taxi with my friend as kids, and now I get a headache before thunderstorms. 😂

I'm a part of that 69% The closest I have gotten to a midnight console release was when I went on launch day for the Switch and BotW. I pre-ordered both but from different places and opted to have the Switch mailed to my apartment. So I went on Friday night to pick up my Switch copy of BotW and didn't receive my Switch until 2:00 PM the next day. I literally had a game for hours that I could not play. Side note: I still remember that there was one guy who got BotW for the Wii U lol.

i think the launch will depend on how much is online because there is a difference between standing in line at a store and fighting bots that take up the stock.

I've been to game midnight releases, they aren't bad. I did wait in line for the release of the Wii and Zelda Twilight Princess. It was not at midnight. It was at 9 am when the store opened. People started camping out 12 hours earlier, so my friend and I rushed over and got in line. The word was that this place got an extra shipment, which luckily turned out to be true. I think everyone who waited got one.

The Switch was the last console to have a full launch in-store I believe, so the poll makes sense. Maybe the One X or the PS4 Pro came out after, but I'm going off of memory. I'd be more surprised if they didn't go back to having systems in stores at launch next generation.

I've only done four midnight console releases, one of them being the PS2 because I somehow convinced my mom to go to it when I was 5, then the Wii U, PS4, and Switch

I have never been to a midnight release of a console, because where I live the store owners just tell you to come during normal opening hours. They aren't going to pay overtime for gamers to play earlier. Even camping outside a store was pointless, because only those who have pre-ordered can get one and those people are called by phone by "first come first serve". I had seen people camp outside a store once and they were walking away disappointed, because they didn't get one due to pre-orders.

Probably a missed opportunity, that poll should have had a third option of "they don't do midnight releases here" and maybe even a fourth one of "I'd go if they did midnight releases here". Helps separate a very broad "no" to a specific around willingness of gamers or if people are even interested in midnight releases. Not calling anyone out either, because I get it, even though I love my games, there's very few that I'd consider standing in line at midnight to get. Just like going to the movies... I might be waiting for one, but do I want to see the very first session at midnight? does it even matter to me that much to do that?

I would hope that Nintendo would have closer to $10M Switch 2 units around the time of launch. I think Switch success, Switch 2 software and the fact that Nintendo tends to price their consoles more reasonably than other console manufacturers make potential demand high. Even considering that many Switch owners won’t necessarily want to upgrade right away.

Why would you buy a crazy taxi online game when GTAVOnline exists and GTAVI is on the horizon? This was one of my favorite games but I don't see the proposition I'd take just a modern but single player crazy taxi, even on the AA budget

I sold my MiG switch cart on eBay a month or so ago since I had no need for it without the dumper and got a copyright infringement notice from Nintendo via eBay. I got a very strongly worded message warning me to never sell a product like that again, so Nintendo is going after sales of them everywhere

You could produce 5x times as many switch 2 consoles for release as they did for the switch and scalpers would still buy up more than half the stock to resell as the people that do this don’t buy 10 consoles they by 20+ in some cases if not more to create a shortage artificially of availability. To be able to saturate the market so scalpers don’t have a chance you would have to send so many consoles to places like Walmart,target,Sam’s in just absurd buck and pallets space is something stores take into account no matter how popular the item is.

To this day I've still YET to purchase a single Playstation title on PC and don't plan to either. Calling it now, this is all a part of Sony's plan to eventually have their own (required) PC storefront for their own 1st party titles.

I love the first person resident evil games. completely blew me away both times. i would like the option to choose first or third person for RE9. id choose first person, but i think being able to choose would work for everyone.

I think when it comes to the Switch 2, if it’s possible, what Nintendo can implement is anti-bot software of sorts that not only require CAPTCHA but also a two-factor system, where the buyer would need to verify themselves at least twice before checking out. It may have already been implemented before, but just a thought! :)

Resident evil had RE had four games that were fixed camera and three that were 3rd person. Them switching to 1st person wasn’t so odd as they had changed it pretty often. Revelations had third person with 1st person aiming on the 3ds so they’ve always mixed things up after a while
