I'm super surprised. I'm never going to buy it because getting 4 controllers is too much money when I already have it for WiiU. Is it mainly new people buying it?
Nah double dipped hard. Even got a 2nd pair of Joy-cons and a Pro controller.

It's not so strange to me. I had noticed the Wii U was actually fairly common around here, especially as a second console. It's stuff like this that kind of reinstates my assumption that the percentage of Canadian Nintendo Fans who owned a Wii U, is probably quite a bit higher than the percentage of US Nintendo Fans who owned a Wii U and many of them didn't feel the need to buy MK8 again (still doing really well, but I mean it's sold more than Zelda in the US already, whereas both versions of Zelda are at the top of the Canadian chart).Strangest thing is Canada imo: it's only eighth there, below preorders for Super Mario Odyssey.
The thirst for more Switch titles is real.
Eh. I'd rather buy the PSN card...

You are correct.
When the 1st mainline Pokemon comes out... Oh shit...

What is it about Nintendo that get people to go full weird around here?
If I didn't any know better, I'd had thought crow was quite a delicacy around these parts, where Switch is concerned.
Such a strange, visually unappetizing dish being ordered & served so frequently...
You have no idea. I'm cool with my local Gamestop manager and he said everytime someone comes in asking about The Switch one of the first things they asks for is if he heard anything about a Pokémon game for the Switch. They would ask for rumors, his take on what Nintendo might do for Pokémon on the Switch, or flat out ask to preorder something that doesn't exists (Pokémon Switch)
To give alittle context he's been telling for a over a year before the Switch got released that if you can't shoot it, race it, or its football it probably won't sell out his store location. Since the Switch he's seen alot of variety customers.
Concerning Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and this same store.
He told me his store sold all 48 Switch console his store received in and he got exactly 30 preorders for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and he had 9 people walk in without preorders to buy a copy. He's saying this version of the game is going to be big. (For his store atleast)
Console wars are a serious business to some people and Nintendo is thriving right now. Do the math.
They even argued that the reason it is selling because they don't have anything else to buy. They are always salty lolI guess, but things are getting zanier. The other day I saw people arguing that Splatoon 2 isn't a sequel and now this? War never changes indeed.
Why is Nintendo not advertising the hell out of HD Rumble in this game?
I was on the fence about the game because I had all DLC and played a lot of online so I didn't know if I wanted to double dip. I finally gave in...
Holy shit. HD Rumble in this instantly made this the best racing game ever for me.
Seriously guys. If you haven't already, take the joy con out of the grip and hold them bare (no strap) one in each hand. That's next gen.
Damn. I wonder what the attach rate is going to be.
Welp, if I didn't already decide to buy this digitally(since I own this on Wii u physically) this would have gotten me toWhy is Nintendo not advertising the hell out of HD Rumble in this game?

Its not impossible to find. Every store had it today...I look forward to playing this game when I can get the switch in store (in 2018).
On one hand, I am happy for Nintendo, on the other, I am kind of sad my prediction of the switch being impossible to find is becoming true since I kind of want one now with Mario Kart 8 out xD

well that's probably the least secure way possible of doing it, plus you just told everyone that you do it, so congrats I guessI put my card on PSN when I want to buy something, then I remove immediately afterwards.
Is this a serious post?Aren't those PSN cards likely to have been used on Horizon: Zero Dawn though?
There's no positive outcome for Nintendo, is there?
MK8 sells poorly: "Psh, see fanboys? Nintendoomed!"
MK8 has record breaking sales: "Switch owners thirsty much?"
The cycle continues!
Add me to the list. I passed on the DLC the first time so I've got that to look forward to at least, but a large part of my reason for getting this (again) is that I want more games to play on the Switch. Mine's been dormant most of this month due to Zelda fatigue, but I really like the system and want an excuse to use it again.I'm a thirsty Switch owner. I'm just saying that people are really craving another AAA title since there's really only 1 on the platform right now.

Hope its as good with the pro controller.
damn right
What is it about Nintendo that get people to go full weird around here?
Yeah so weird that people are happy to see a system doing good...Yeah, well that's true for both sides of the coin.
I compared it, they're about the same. Handheld mode is less sensitive.
Nah I'm pretty it's entirely down to Mario Kart. Not any old game can do this. This was the Wii u's top sellers.this is what a reheated remaster of a game years old can do for a new platform starving for core games.
Nintendo would be utter fools to waste this opportunity, they should be throwing out core oriented software like free confetti at a clown festival

Sadly the comes with the territory of any successful product or event gaming wise.They're obviously talking about the obnoxious group. Anyone with eyes reading these threads can see the extreme haters and defenders battling it out.
