Statement from Nintendo: Statement from Nintendo: Pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in the U.S. will not start April 9, 2025 in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions. Nintendo will update timing at a later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged.

A lot of misinfo and half truths have been spread about Switch 2. So many say all games are just an unlock code to download which isn't. So many have said the console is region locked. It isn't. Nintendo really fumbled a lot of the messaging.

If you think that complaints about games getting more expensive is entitlement and that everybody complaining will just shell out anyway you are either very middle class (or better) and in a bubble or just plainly stupid. And if you're a games industry analyst you're almost certainly both.

Interestingly, Nintendo has already been shipping hundreds of thousands of Switch 2 units to the US since at least the beginning of the year, hoping to reduce the effect of whatever tariffs end up being enforced on Vietnam. www.ft.com/content/a781...

The price of Switch 2 games seems like it's gonna be on the high end, but AAA games' prices have been pretty high for a while. The actual problem are stagnant wages that haven't caught up with inflation, an increase in cost of living, and no increases to federal minimum wage! This is political!

Don't agree with the $80 Mario Kart cope I'm seeing. "Games have been undervalued for a while", "Cartridges used to cost that much", don't do this to yourself.

Susan Crawford wins the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, according to many election analysts. This after Elon Musk and others poured millions into anti-transgender advertisements in the state. The anti-trans panic failed in Wisconsin. This is a major victory for LGBTQ+ people in the state.

this tdov marks a full decade of being 'visible'. if ten years have taught me anything, it's that just visibility isn't enough. chants of 'trans rights' without any actionable change isn't enough. all the passive allies in the world won't chalk up to anything if real action isn't taken year-round.

The Massachusetts governor, the city, and the university needs to drop everything to locate and free this girl and make sure this doesn't happen again. This is DEFCON-1. If they do this to someone who wrote an op-ed in a college newspaper, they will do this to anyone they don't like.

So, if people did not know, the series was on ice for so long because the composer, Tsunku, was diagnosed with laryngeal cancer in 2014 and had art of his vocal cords removed. That they made a note of him coming back for this one is actually kind of a big deal.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media. But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

Remember what I said about how Twitter is useless for self-promotion even if you have a big following there? There's data showing BlueSky, even with smaller user numbers, generates way more referrals than Twitter purely because it doesn't suppress links. Stop saying you need Twitter for promotion.
