Wait what that's all insane

 

It gets better

 

Them: you have to call the publisher to get that fixed
Me: Sony is the publisher
Them: no it’s Guerilla
Me: Guerilla is owned by Sony
Them: I don’t think so

At that point I lost my patience and told him that I hope he loses his job because he’s an idiot

 

Splatoon does well, but Odyssey already sold more than double after a month or so on the market, with Splatoon having a considerable head start. I can't speak for the Japanese experience, but Zelda and Mario were reasons people bought a Switch, while Splatoon is something Switch owners also bought.

It is unfair to compare Nintendo first-party sales to Sony ones, because people buy Nintendo consoles to play Nintendo games and people buy Playstations to play a variety of games. FIFA, Call of Duty, and Grand Theft Auto are a much bigger reason that people buy those consoles than Uncharted.

I do love Splatoon, though, and I wish more people did not scoff when I tried to tell them how fun it is.

 

Oh yeah but you can be less big than Mario and Zelda and still be big. Point is, it's a big franchise and one of Nintendo's biggest IPs currently if you look at the numbers, yet people act like it isn't. The Uncharted comparison is just for context because I'm sure many people that act like Splatoon isn't big would not say the same about Uncharted. @Morrissey

 

how on earth have you not played pokemon?

 

Pokemon was prolly the first game I played or at least remember playing

 

Red/Blue were the first games I owned, the first I played was Mario Land 2.

 

GBC was the first console I remember playing then from there it was PS2. I want to say it was Pokemon Gold was my first game I remember playing but my memory is horrible. First PS2 game was GTA III though, I remember I think I broke it and my brothers were piiiiised

 

I got a Game Boy Color, then I got an N64, and then I played on my babysitter's Dreamcast a lot (Soul Calibur and... Blue Stinger) before I got a GCN.. unless the GBA came before the GCN, not sure.

 

I don't think I've ever played a GCN haha, we religiously stuck with PS2 and then made the move over to the X360 when my brother wanted to get Halo 3... I may have taken it over after he rarely ever played it

 

Too old I think and never really owned a handheld

 

Looking back on the old consoles, I think Halo 3 and GTA:SA were my, personal, games of their consoles. Must have put over 200 hours into each at least probably more haha

EDIT: GTA being game for the PS2 even though it's not a PS exclusive, it's what I played it on

 

I've never played Pokemon

First console I remember playing: Sega Genesis

First handheld: Sega Game Gear

 

My first handheld was a yellow game boy colour and first game was Pokemon yellow

I was one of those annoying af kids that loved Pikachu

Edit: first console was Snes, I think

 

First console: SNES
First handheld(officially): Game Boy Color with Pokémon Yellow

I had a Sega Genesis Nomad before the GBC but I’m not sure that counts

 

In your Defense pikachu is pretty dope tho

 

My first console was Sega game gear. Sonic was a badass game. Then I got the gameboy color with pokemon yellow. Good times man.

 

I grew to hate Pikachu later on because he got so full of himself in the Anime

 

GBC really was something special

 

all that fame got to his (or hers) head

 

I remember an episode where Ash didn't know that one of his Pokemon was female, so it's a he

 

Atari 2600
OG NES

 

Omfg I just remembered I had Spider man for the GBA and that game was certainly something

 

Blue and Mario Land 2 on a clear grey Game Boy Pocket.

First console was N64. I don't remember playing anything console-wise before that.
