The concept is cool. The rest is pretty much not. While I would tell you to fuck off to /v/ that place is always going to have the same shit. So I'll give you my opinion instead.

It's really underpowered for its current price. The prospect of playing "big" titles on a portable sounds good, but then you have to take in account battery life, temperature and such things. It seems to be featureless, aside from gaming you can't do much with it and, to be honest it had the potential to also be a normal tablet for them normies, which would probably convince a lot more people, but nah, just games, without backwards compatibility.

The online subscription system is also nuts, unless it's priced fairly which we don't know yet. Priced fairly means half of what the competition costs, considering they're also not offering much with the service (renting a SNES game worked 24 years ago, not now).

Really it's only going to be worth 66% its price when it's open and modded to a level where you can put more things on it than emulators. For now though? Save your money. Don't buy a PS4 either. Get something else, like a thinkpad. Pretty fun device.
>>
>>58572450

The performance:battery life is ridiculous.
They've bogged it down with useless shit like HD rumble. When it could've been put to use with a better battery and better cooling for higher clock speeds.

One can only hope they update it like they did wii U and add a slight over clock

If it's anything like the 3DS it should be.
People are looking for fully open source shit, well that thing's had its guts dumped and you can do whatever you fucking want with it.
I'm guessing nintendo has taken a "From scratch" approach with the switch as well, so once we get bootloader it'll be a world of fun.
>>
>>58572463
HD rumble's just the same shit in apple's taptic, and it's only in the controllers, and there's no word on their battery life. I'm guessing far longer than the consoles.
Putting a massive battery in the controller to help charge the tablet though, could be a novel idea.
>>
>>58572463
Honestly, I don't care about the neocons, the rumbles, the entire gimmick. I would buy a switch "home console" if that even existed, if they actually bothered making something better hardware wise. While this is a "more useful" gimmick (depending on which people you're selling these portables to, that is) it is not exactly necessary to prosper.

The reason why nintendo handhelds sell much more than their home consoles is the focus on putting so many fucking games on them. They're really underpowered as well. The problem now is that Nintendo has tried to merge both, and didn't get either very well. You don't have a home console that screams "better than the flop the Wii U was" and you don't have a handheld that's filled with titles and has at least battery life that can support the better titles and not just another fucking picross. It's not looking well.

There is too much wrong with it technically for me bother typing, but if they released a Metroid game at least as good as Fusion on it I would go buy a Switch that same day.

The question is: How much power do you need to run a nice looking Mario/Zelda game.
Whereas i don't really think something like HD Rumble is a killer feature, I wouldn't either say, that more computing power would benefit Zelda or Mario Kart etc.
What I would appreciate:
Cheaper (no gimmicks)
More open (with a browser and some apps it could be a substitute for a tablet, also I would like to tinker with the IR-camera etc.)
A new Metroid

Also something, that is rarely mentioned:
Nintendo is the savior of local coop with the switch.
You always have two controllers with you and you're also able to connect up to 4 (or 8?) Nintendo Switch via Adhoc.

As it looks, more than this. New zelda isnt very good looking at all, but the switch still only does 900p 30fps. It's pretty bad when it cant even do 1080p at launch.

I got hopes for the switch, but that all they are, hopes. That basic concept of ninety combining their portable and home hardware is a good one, if only because it means access to more games with a single device.

The GPU doesn't really matter. Only idiots care more about that than the quality of the games, I think it's a valid business choice to not even try to compete on that front.

There are a lot of things that worry me though.
The price. It seems fine at first, until you factor in how weirdly expensive all the peripherals are. It really starts to rack up if you want a pro controller or a second set of joycons. And then there's the fact that you'll probably want to buy memory cards and battery packs. It all adds up.

The second presentation focused on the motions controls, which no one cares about any more, and completely ignored the portable aspect in terms of games announced.

And the online charge is bullshit, obviously.

And there the probability that they'll continue to mishandle the virtual shop catalogue. If buying a switch gave me access to all classic ninety titles at a reasonable price, with a great selection at launch and a good release schedule for more it would add SO MUCH value. The switch has the potential to be a machine that lets you play every Zelda ever released, but it probably wont be.

I agree that this is a plus >>58573299

I'm sorry to bring it to you but this is a home console not a handheld console, battery life doesn't matter as much. You play the games with the AC plugged in and on a big TV for the best experience. And, if you want to, you can bring it with you to play anywhere you want. Of course the battery won't perform like the 3DS, but that's not the point.
Switch was never intended to be the next 3DS, its the next nintendo home console.

I wish i could bring my PS4 to the loo and keep playing japanese anime game while i poo for hours like a real man.

If it gets hacked, yes; if not, no. If it doesn't get hacked, it's just an underpowered locked down tablet/pseudo-console. If it does get hacked, then we're looking at possibly the best mobile emulation machine to date.

Not gonna lie, the paid online is pretty bullshit. I hope Nintendo is getting their act together and unifying all their services under one account. I wanna be able to log into my Nintendo account, manage all my Nintendo devices, decide whether or not to subscribe to online, etc. It should be like Battle.net, you have all that shit at your fingertips. And since they're charging money now, the online better be top fucking quality and they better have tons of great online multiplayer games to take advantage of it. Splatoon 2 and Super Smash Brothers ain't gonna cut it. And for fuck's sake, put Monster Hunter on it.

THIS THING WILL DO VERY WELL AND HERE'S MY REASONS WHY:

1. It gets people out of the house
2. First console to play full AAA titles in handheld form
3. Micro SD card support up to 2TB ( of course only 512GB exists in the real world currently)
4. USB-C charging means you can just use the external battery you use for charging your phone on the go to charge the Switch
5. Future proof because Nintendo will have access to new more powerful and power efficient NVIDIA chips every fucking year so they can upgrade it every fucking year like Apple does for iPhones.
>>
>>58572636
Any reason why they went with Tegra 1 then?^

Maybe nvidia sold Nintendo their unused shield batch for a very cheap price. Switch = maxwell confirmed.

>Maybe nvidia sold Nintendo their unused shield batch for a very cheap price
That explain a lot because nobody seems to want the fucking things.
>>58572420
Absolutely not, I have no idea why they went the direction they did. Is this really the replacement for the Wii U? This is retarded, on every front but especially on the technical side of things. I mean, NVidia? The company that has a history of fucking over their console customers? Both Microsoft and Sony learned the hard way that NVidia are not good playmates, it'll be interesting to see what they'll do to piss Nintendo off.
>>
>>58572420
I dunno. What the fuck is it? Why do you think that you need my approval? I'm not your alcoholic father, and I really don't care what you do.

>>
>>58574155
>Any reason why they went with Tegra 1 then?^
Who knows. Nvidia probably just gave Nintendo a very good price on the Tegras.

One thing that is certain is that nVidia are notoriously difficult to work with. Microsoft ditched them in favor of ATI after nVidia refused to lower prices on the OG Xbox's GPU. Sony learnt their lesson when nVidia ripped them off on the PS3' GPU. Now it's Nintendo's turn to deal with nVidia's shenanigans.

Don't get me wrong, they are great at designing chips, just as soon as they collaborate with another company everything falls apart.

I mean, the vita:ps3 is basically what the switch is to the xbone. so delivering 3 hours of cut down next gen is not very different from the vita

hopefully the specs on how long it takes to charge and shit is not true and it'll take a fast charge when not being used
>>
>>58575236
Honestly, if Sony was actually worth anything anymore, they would have seen the switch coming, and fully supported the Vita as a direct competitor (maybe even announcing a Vita Slim+ or some shit).

But no, they had to let that beauty die in the West. It was ahead of its time really, only dragged down by awful Sony decisions. Shame too, the tech inside the Vita (especially the original model with that oled) is fucking insane.
>>
>>58575264
I know; the PSP basically defined my teenage years so I was all on board with the VIta. Even Uncharted impressed me, and the gyroscope aiming was incredible combined with the analog sticks. MGS HD collection was GOAT too.

then there was no God of War, no Grand Theft Auto, no Star Wars games... and nothing new. Gravity Rush I guess? Was that supposed to replace patapon and the dozen other gems on the PSP? It really was a shame

I'll be getting a switch because I want zelda and my friends like mario kart; that's about it

hopefully some of those 80 gamesin development are worth something
>>
>>58572450
>It's really underpowered for its current price.
This argument is starting to piss me off. Underpowered compared to fucking what exactly?

I'm sorry, but I really don't know any devices in that form factor that are cheaper, and if you haven't noticed smaller devices with performance tend to cost more than huge fucking slabs of plastic and steel with the same performance.

No, that's not what it essentially means. The performance still exists and can be utilized by devs who want to use it and exclude shitty third worlders.

Also, you only think Switch games look better because you're a fan of the franchises. They're both technically on par. That shit rendering distance in breath of the wild is absolutely horrendous.
>>
>>58576065
>Those look worse than Switch games, and Switch games aren't exactly the epitome of graphics.
Nigga those games are running at 1440p while the switch has to output its shitty games at tiny 720p low res screen. Anyway as phones get better there will be more and more vidyas with better graphics to play.

Yea and resolution doesn't automagically make them look any good. Still looks garbage. And it doesn't look like they are running even 30 FPS.

>>58576339
Not defending his point, just stating the likely course.

It could get slightly faster GPU, since that will give it more stable frame rate. I mean in theory it could also get outright hardware upgrades too, since it's not like games having auto-adjusting settings is alien rocket science to the likes of nvidia and PS4 also does it with the Pro and normal model.

>>58576370
They "could" make an upgrade, it's not impossible but would be extremely stupid.
A new version would likely be much more powerful then the original model, so games on the new one wouldn't run on the old one.

>>
>>58576412
All games that run on PS4 Pro do run on the normal PS4 though. They even run at higher frame rates in some cases (because the Pro really bloats up them graphics)

And then you have to look at the PC. PC games run on such a wildly varied range of hardware capabilities that it's completely unbelievable.
So while I don't think it's likely that they'll ever release stronger models of the Switch, what I can say for certain that it is neither a stupid idea nor something that is hard to do. Having settings presets for a couple of SKUs, maybe 2 or 3 of them is no problem at all. Nvidia alone has settings presets for more SKUs on Geforce experience.

If it were meant as an enthusiast product priced at 900 or 1000 I would have expected pascal with 1440p oled touch or some shit like that

I was going to buy the Shield TV but might be getting this instead if Kodi/Netflix can be supported somehow. It is basically Shield TV with support for Nintendo games or am I wrong about this?

Because the PS4 and Xbox One aren't extremely weak (Compared to the Switch)
It would be a terrible idea for the consumer, you just don't understand what I am trying to say.

The Switch isn't "extremely weak". You are correct, I have no idea what you're trying to say because what you're saying makes no sense.

Netflix is on the WiiU so it would be on the Switch too. The WiiU browser is also dope. It supports playing tons of stuff within the browser.

Nintendo is a toy company.

>>58572450
Literally $300 it could be just a tablet with controllers and it's hard to call overpriced

They are selling at loss for sure

The Switch won’t support any video-streaming apps like Netflix or Hulu at launch. “All of our efforts have gone toward making the Nintendo Switch system an amazing dedicated video game platform,” the company says, although this functionality is “being considered for a future update.”

You plug it into a wall when playing on the go. That's just fine, there are more portable things like your phone for being away from an AC

"Flops" don't translate directly to gaming performance. If they did, AMD would be shitting on nvidia from orbit. It wouldn't even be a competition. Yet that's not what is happening.

it's a tablet you numb nuts. But yes, everything else was spot on.
>>
>>58574042
>Yes it does. Toasters can do Netflix and YouTube these days.
nintendo stated it doesn't have ANY multimedia capabilities. There's no netflix, no music or video player, no youtube. Not even a web browser, which is idiotic.
>Launching with atleast 23 titles and shit ton in development. Also people get Nintendo consoles for their games anyway.
launching with 2 titles, with some shovelware/ports nobody wanted/skyrim xD sometime later in the year

you realize this is almost exactly what people were saying about the Wii U at launch, then it crashed and burned?

can't believe i bought one. then again, 5 player luigi's mansion ghost hunt and 8 player smash was fun a few times.

>>58578271
>nintendo stated it doesn't have ANY multimedia capabilities.
Probably has the capabilities including hardware encoder. Only question is whether Nintendo will make use of them.
>>
>>58578085

The WiiU also didn't support everything at launch. Give it a month or so for the Netflix app to arrive.
>>
>>58578398
The Wii U was released during a time where this shit wasn't expected.

>>58572420
Yes it looks fun. Poorfags will say nk

Buying consoles is for fucking retards anyway. The PC library is so large you could be entertained for decades.

>but this game is coming only to console!
I guarantee you that any game coming to console in the last decade has been done to death on PC in many different ways.

No but I'm still buying it anyway if SMT V is an exclusive. Hopefully we get Homebrew on it early though so my wallet doesn't get completely milked by the Nintenjews.

Listen you fucking shit head.

THE PS4 AND XBOX ONE CAN HOLD THERE OWN AGAINST THE NEWER CONSOLES BECAUSE THEY ARE POWERFUL ENOUGH TO AT THE VERY LEAST RUN IT AT A LOWER REZ.

THE SWITCH IS CONSIDERED FAIRLY FUCKING WEAK, IT IS UNDERPOWERED, ESPECIALLY IN 2017. IF THEY MADE A MORE POWERFUL VERSION THAT CAN RUN THIRD PART TITLES, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THE OLD WEAKER SWITCH? IT WOULD BE FUCKED.

You understand now faggot?

/g/ would often recommend ThinkPads back in the early 2010s despite them using cheap plastic, that would form shiny spots, shitty keyboards that would flex, STATIC DITHERED TN PANELS WITH BARELY USABLE RESOLUTIONS AND VIEWING ANGLES, shitty battery life, etc.

Who the hell cares what /g/ thinks about anything?
