Report: Nintendo planning massive boost to Switch manufacturing in time for the holidays
2017 surely is the end times. ‘Cause if the reports are to be believed, Nintendo is actually planning a massive manufacturing push for the Switch. Go figure — they want their console to be purchasable during the holiday season. Madness. As I said, the end times.
‘Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’ for the Switch is faster seller in series history
The ZeldaTablet got another killer app this week, in the form of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. I really, really want to play that motherfucker with friends, and apparently a lot of other people do too.
Nintendo has sold 2.7 million Switch Consoles, imagine if they actually stocked it?

Report: Nintendo Switch Has Sold More Than 1.5 Million Consoles Worldwide

Nintendo Switch Fastest Two-Day Seller In Nintendo Console History
Many have wondered why Nintendo would rush out the broken-ass, under-supported, overly expensive Nintendo Switch. This is why. In case you were wondering.
Nintendo Switch Is Launching Without A Virtual Console
The Nintendo Switch is hitting without a Virtual Console. This doesn’t really bother me, rather it raises questions about how quickly the company is rushing the console out the door. Which also really doesn’t bother me, because I’m not getting it at launch.
