"Who's trading in [insert console] for a Switch?"
You forgot, yo my fake gf just preordered me a switch but I had to sell my Ps4 pro before she came over, who else sold their Ps4?
You're forgetting "So, who's sticking the Switch up their butt?"

I think the biggest talk point will be The Price.
Whether it's good or bad pricing.

I bet we get "I'm canceling my Switch preorder" threads within the next 60 days.

An example of an OP a week after launch:
"Now that the honeymoon period is over, who's regretting their Switch purchase?"

I don't know, but NeoGaf Matt said @ end of november 2016, that Switch could run the likes of Assassins Creed Unity.
What is your stance to this at the moment?
We will also get these kinds of articles

I absolutely hate these opinion threads. Not just for nintendo, but for every company, it's always a thread being made way too soon, like the honeymoon one for example, or something completely stupid that could be discussed in any other thread about a system.
Yikes.

Worthy of a Pulitzer compared with "The PlayStation Vita Is Set to Succeed."

Hadn't thought about Miiverse. I'm split. I want them to keep it, but with no stylus and if everything has to work in console mode, maybe they will do away with it. It would be a shame, because a message board integrated into the OS was a brilliant idea.

All very plausible, but where's Beyond Good & Evil 2?
Is what I say after every damn Ubi conference.
Rabbids RPG too.
Hell, just have a square that's just Laura Kate Dale's smug face.

Goes to show that power doesn't mean shit as a whole.
The vita even though was stronger than the 3DS had shitty memory cards, lacked appealing games, and pretty much Sony didn't give a fuck about the system.
I loved the Vita but damn were those memory cards its Achilles heel.
i know that this article is nearly six years old, but the guy forgot the ds's initial struggles. it received a $20 price drop within a year too, but claims it came after the ds lite launched, which was over 18 months after the launch of the platform.

Well him and that Lami person from twitter both confirmed Zelda Botw for release when LKD was flip flopping still. We'll see how credible these 2 are in 5 days.

Posting my predictions:
First Party
Third Party
First Party
- Breath of the Wild is indeed a launch title, in NA. EU is delayed 1-2 weeks. Please understand.
- Mario Switch is very similar to 3D World; Wario appears as a character this time.
- Splatoon is not quite a sequel, but is a massively updated port. Octolings are finally playable.
- Smash is shown; at least one newcomer will be revealed.
- Mario Kart is MK8 with 4 additional cups, more characters, and classic Battle Mode. Called Mario Kart Infinite and will be updated for the Switch's lifespan.
- A bizarre new IP, even stranger than Splatoon is revealed.
- Pikmin 4 is revealed.
- Pokemon Stars is not mentioned.
- A brief sizzle reel teases games to be elaborated on during the Treehouse stream.
- MOTHER 3
- Rabbids Kingdom Battle is revealed to little applause.
- New Mario Strikers revealed; gritty Rosalina quickly proves a fan favorite.
Third Party
- Skyrim Remastered is confirmed, obviously. Launch day.
- Sonic Mania is confirmed; Project 2017 gets a new teaser.
- Monster Hunter is shown in some capacity.
- Marvel VS Capcom Infinite shown off; one new Marvel and one new Capcom fighter revealed.
- Tecmo shows off a new Nintendo-themed Warriors game. Fire Emblem?
- Tekken 7.
- Dark Souls Trilogy confirmed.
- Dragon Quest incoming.
- Indie sizzle reel that contains conspicuous UNDERTALE footage, with no comment on Nintendo's part.

The first and third row are practically guaranteed, though free online for Switch is up in the air imo.. Not sure if Nintendo will keep giving us that.
Not really the first row due to the 3D Mario at launch part.

At this point are prediction videos and posts on the switch event just retellings of leaks?
Yep, nothing substantial about the Switch had been leaked in a while. And I don't trust the OBE1 person.
Gotta get that ad revenue.
I see a really easy bingo...

The commonality between Trump and brexit is a surge in white nationalism and anti immigrant scapegoatism fueled in part by dissatisfaction of a disappearing middle class resulting from neoliberalism and crony capitalism. Some people in comfortable wealthy or liberal bubbles didn't see it coming or where too dissatisfied with politics to care enough to fight against it.
Switch disruption the potentially stagnating AAA industry has nothing to do with the above.
A thread regarding the current state of AAA gaming and what could disrupt said industry would be interesting.
Comparing it to politics would be a distraction from any interesting discussion. It's a terrible thread idea.

Everyone's so laser focused on the twitter circle, that they are missing what should be obvious. A new project from the Wii Sports / Nintendo Land team.
This is what makes me excited. I would absolutely love a new Nintendo Land, but I know we won't get one, so I'll take a new IP from them.
In five days and one hour.
