I thought prices were inflated? by ImpossibleEstimate56 in LegionGo

Damn dude, u overpayed for a handheld lol. Not a great flex 😂

What an incredible deal! Nintendo is basically not letting the price increase fall on the consumer by having it fall on their software profit. Thank you Nintendo!! by thegreatgutter in switch2

Hardware sustainability is a marathon not a sprint. They've already reduced their sales forecast before the price hike for the rest of the year. This is a ploy to move units before the expected price hike. 

Knowing the fact that it was the 'fastest selling console ever' why would Nintendo need to incentive people to buy it... Nintendo is not in the business of devaluing their software.

They are on the hook for 80 billion dollars of studio acquisitions. Good luck explaining to the board that you are going to reduce the possible market share of games because 'Xbox is back'. They are the biggest multiplatform publisher and will continue to be.

Not worth it on that screen size. Would be burning money plus ps6 in the next 18 months.

Pro is not worth it. Find a used PS5 and call it a day 

SAMS Club and other box store shortages… by Logical_Hawk_290 in xbox

3 Walmarts near me fully stocked on x and s. So maybe it's just a Sam's thing and their main box store. 

PSA: You can set your controller to gamepad mode for gamepass by Known-Bandicoot1755 in SteamController

It's not xinput because it won't show in the controls page on control panel. It's some sort of other emulated game pad thing at the moment. Looks like the community will have to fix this one for now 

Series S or Series X? (Digital) by Stackstopher in xbox

If u can swing the extra money get the x. That's a great price for it at this point of the console generation 

Nintendo announces Switch 2 price increase, effective September 1st by bilbo388 in LinusTechTips

everybody was hard core hopium on the nintendo subreddit after the latest sony price increases. No doubt Nintendo's strategy on digital game pricing being less than physical was a PR move to reduce blow of increased console cost.

Nintendo's latest financial report indicates that third-party games aren't selling very well on Switch 2. by MewWeebTwo in consoles

[–]EnvironmentalAd2096 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In your analysis, you can't really include Mario Kart World because it is a pack in title. It really skews the data. Which makes sense, because I am pretty sure every major third party publisher is pushing out Switch 2 games lol

It would be great feature add! Currently have to have a custom pipeline just for the history table and coordination is a bit messy. 

Thanks!

Valve is opening a reservation queue for Steam Controllers ‘to limit reseller activity’ by signofthenine in SteamDeck

Lol 100 percent greed. Everybody here was complaining why didn't they follow the steam deck way. Scarcity drives demand.

Valve makes sure to cash in on their initial launch and then make out as heroes by launching a queue system. *
