So much bad Nintendo news coming out like wtf

I've been out of the loop. I didn't know they had an unveiling yesterday. It's a wonderful concept in theory, but Nintendo is too hellbent on turning a profit from day one to get the hardware where it needs to be. The catalog is pretty lacking too, but for the last few generations, Nintendo's consoles have always been the place I turn to for a handful of solid games a year - so I'm not too worried on that front.

Whitch switch games caught your eye the most? For me, it's Mario odyssey, Splatoon 2 (dem akimbo ink pistols), Puyo Puyo Tetris, Breath of the Wild and ARMS. I mean I watched the trailer for ARMS LIKE 6 times now.

No love for Bomberman?
 
Leave his senility be.

So Arms got you that excited? It's deffo not the first time.

I just thought about Monster Hunter and God Eater and the like on switch. That's exciting.

I still can't believe that app shit, it's like they picked the wrong aspects of it being a handheld when thinking of that.

I believed in you.



So that's 292 as a theoretical max (minus whatever space the OS, etc takes up) when it comes to device storage :(

They always say upto, but it usually means as long as it confirms to the standard it will probably accept more but they don't guarantee it.
 
Cmon guy, we can all hate Nintendo's console direction for not following the norm as much as we want too, but there's no denying that they themselves make great games.

Also how you gonna have a DS and not appreciate what they accomplished with the 3DS?

The game quality doesn't matter if the console itself is trash.

How would someone know your game is fun and quality if your console turns people off from the jump?

My 3DS is great. It was pretty much my go to for playing good JRPGs until FFXV dropped. I think they did great things with it, but they had a great base. It's hard to mess up making a handheld, all things considered, when you have long ties in the industry as the dedicated handheld gaming leader.

But nah, the Switch is gonna flop like the Wii U. It's like the worst parts of every console they put out combined into one.

Reviews, YouTube, impressions, making up your own mind.

I mean it's Nintendo so it's a given that the games are going to mostly good. Also last time I checked the PS4 being a great console didn't make the order any less trash.

True.

But once again, it doesn't matter how fun a game looks if the console itself doesn't look fun to play on.

I honestly wish Nintendo got out of the console space and put their games on PS4 and XO.

There's a lot I'm disappointed about with the Switch but at the end of the day I'm still looking forward to it and am glad I got my pre-order.

I just hope some unannounced items get added to the line-up this year. Seems like there was a big focus on retail games, so I wonder if there's more digital game announcements to come? I guess we'll see.

The console looks fun to play to me, it I'm probably in the minority for the gaf gamer type. Like I can't even tell what's aliasing.

I just want to play Pokemon, Zelda, etc. on that. I got a PS4 for everything else, but either way, I'm not very picky myself.

I'm not down with all that nitpicking shit either. If it looks fun and interesting bring it on.
With all the things wrong with the console, i'm still getting it day one because I can see what would be fun about it.

You guys. No need to take "nitpicking" personally. No one is attacking anyone for their enthusiasm, just calling it as they see it about a product. And everyone has a rght to feel differently about it. In fact, it's to everyone's benefit that these things are aired out often so that Nintendo can compile a list of things that they can do to address them sooner, rather than later. Have your fun while others figure out what they want to say, and petition for adjustments.
 

Them 1000 year old dragon games gonna be lit..congrats, homie.

I think somewhere along the line Nintendo finally gave up on the western PlayStation/Xbox customers. Switch looks like mostly a response to what's happened in the Japanese market. It seems laser targeted at the people who buy Nintendo games, Monster Hunter, MegaTen, Dragon Quest, Etrian Odyssey, pixel graphic indie games, and all the otaku stuff. It's like Nintendo is grabbing every niche it can hold on to that isn't already wrapped up in PlayStation or mobile.

Nintendo might be advertising Switch as a console, but I think it's gonna survive as basically a Vita with an HDMI out and Nintendo games on it. If that works, best case scenario is maybe the Switch can end up with some kind of stable base of maybe 40 or 50 million units lifetime.
 
Every time we see a house charging in Battlefield everyone yells Jandro as a warning..

They aren't going to have any problems once the next round of pokemon releases on it. Fuck what anyone else thinks
