2 choices, choosing the one closest to your priorities is the answer.
Min wage? Didn't get it, won't get it
UH? Biden protected ACA & lowered drug costs. Trump reversed it & 6M are being kicked off Medicaid.
Student loan? Biden forgave over 5M. Trump already restarted collections.
Easy decision!

And what feeble, short-lived attempt did Trump make?
Do you not see how bullshit this way of thinking is where the Dems do something (no matter how "short-lived") & GOP do jack shit but it's the Dems that haven't earned your vote?
Seriously does the phrase "strategic voting" mean anything to you.

When did Corey Booker become "The Democratic leadership"? He's just one of many influential Dems.
But Barack Obama supports him, Bill Clinton supports him, AOC supports him, Elizabeth Warren supports him...
If you want universal support from every member of the Party you're not going to get that.

When was the last time people required every Democrat to weigh in on the NYC mayoral race?
This has become another unnecessary & divisive purity test that the Party (& by extension the country) doesn't need right now.

The Democratic Party does not stand for everything that Mamdani does. He’s a socialist most Democrats aren’t. But it is disingenuous to act like no one in Dem leadership is backing the candidate that won the Dem primary. That’s not true & most will support him even if they don’t agree w/ everything.

Only during the Primary!
Bill Clinton congratulated & offered his support to Mamdani as soon as he won the Primary.

That doesn't make any sense considering that the PS5 version is $10 cheaper.
I could understand if both PS5 & Switch 2 were the same price but this is crazy.
It is straight up price gouging.

We don't really know if they have that many because this is all analysts' speculations.
But if they do it will be truly unprecedented. That's just an insane number of systems to have ready in the first month.
I guess we'll see how far along they are on the 27th.

It depends on how many they can manufacture but it also depends on what happens with the tariffs.
If they have to raise the price they will definitely not make 20.

If they thought they could sell 8 million in a month the yearly estimate would be higher than 15 million.
Right now most people seem to be leaning towards 2 - 3 million sold at launch.
But that is also just a fan estimate & we will have to wait probably until the 27th to hear the official numbers.

First of all those are estimates from analysts not Nintendo.
And secondly understand that making something in a factory in Vietnam is not the same as moving it into the retail channel to sell!
Nintendo told us what they expected to sell this year (15 million in a year).

You can't find it because it doesn't exist.
They always give sales estimates based on the fiscal year.
No one has ever said they would sell 8 million at launch.
They started manufacturing early but 8 million shipped to stores ready to sell is an insane number of systems.

That's not how estimates work & Nintendo never, ever said that. They always give estimates based on the fiscal year.
And just because 2 million people signed up for lotteries in Japan doesn't mean that they had 2 million consoles ready to sell to them.
Come on be realistic here...

No one ever estimated that the Switch 2 would sell 8 million at launch.
I doubt that any game company could even manufacture 8 million consoles & move them into the retail channel in time to sell at launch!
What is wrong with you? If you have to lie at least make it sound like a reasonable lie.

How much did they have in 2020 when the PS5 & XSX came out in the middle of a pandemic?
We were on the brink of recession, 100s of millions of jobs lost, people dying from a virus w/no vaccine & yet there was still less whining about folks buying & unboxing new consoles than there is now.

There are ways to not support Elon (block his ads, block him, block his paid blue check idiots, etc.).
But I'd rather spend time there actually engaging on stuff I'm interested in (the whole point of social media) than twiddle my thumbs over here.

Yeah but the quality of the discourse is so poor here.
And many of the biggest gaming accounts here get a fraction of the engagement that they get on Twitter.
I hate Elon but I felt super disconnected from gaming, manga, soccer (basically all the stuff I care about) until I went back to Twitter.
