>>375512457
You can get Zelda on the Wiiu and Mario Kart came out on the Wiiu 3 fucking years ago. No there is zero reason to own a Switch right now.

I'm waiting for E3.
Hopefully they will reveal some big shit so I don't end up just buying it for Splatoon 2 and ARMS.

Reggie hyped up Nintedo's E3 so I have my expectations high.

Xeno 2 releasing this year, at least in the West, is very unlikely

consider the fact that Xbox one has no games and PS4 only has bloodborne, despite the fact both games are several years old now, I think the fact that the switch has one worthwhile game less than a year into release is a good sign. it's already at an even footing with the competition. no one seems to complain about the ps4 or x1 having no games, why is it different for switch?

I honestly just miss the ps2, n64, ps1, Xbox days where a console would have a shit ton on exclusives and games barely a year into launch. consoles just suck now, the industry has been ruined my movie execs, shareholders, and other suits who don't even like games.

I don't. Having to buy 3 redundant machines just to play all the games was retarded. MS bowing out of the exclusives game has been one of the most honorable things done in the industry probably since its inception. They deserve an award. Not that I'll still buy an Xbone because I have a PC, but I digress

It's also funny how you seem to completely disregard exclusives despite the fact that neither MK8 nor BotW are even Switch games but Wii U ports

>>375512972
I'm excited for Mario Odyssey but thats not until holiday.

I would like more than 2 games to hold me over until then, and more games to look forward too after that.

Can someone tell me where this meme came from? I genuinely don't understand why people are expecting it to get pushed. Is it just because XCX had a delay?

>>375513593
Nintendo delayed almost every single Wii U game. They're notorious for delays. Not to mention all of their western promotion for the game says "tentatively set for 2017 release" as if they're already planning on delaying it.

>>375513675
But no one is saying Odyssey or Arms or Spla2n will get delayed, just Xenoblade

>>375512457
wait until the hardware revision.

>>375512457
I just picked mine up Friday with BotW

If you are able to overcome the cynicism, it's a totally worthwhile purchase. It just feels right.

>>375512589

The bullshit some fans will write.

>>375513763
Arms And Splatoon have ACTUAL DATES. Nintendo has never delayed a game that has an actual release date.

Odyssey seems way too important to delay, since they need a holiday killer app going into its first real shopping season. I'm not saying it won't be delayed either, I just think it's unlikely

Xeno 2 on the other hand "2017" could mean anything. Remember when BotW was coming out in "2015"? Well I do. Consider that it took them 7 months to localize the game, so even if Xeno 2 manages a Japan 2017 release, it's almost guaranteed to be delayed until at least 2018 for the West

>>375512589
Can't have fun if there's no games. Stop shilling consoles, just kill yourself instead.

>>375512457
I think it's worth it if you're interested in most of this years first party line up, which is BotW, MK8D, Arms, Splatoon, FE Warriors, Xenoblade, and Odyssey, or if you're interested in having the comfiest indie-box ever made.

Otherwise wait at least until E3 to see what they have planned for 2018, or TGS to see what third party nip games are announced (since this will likely have tons of Japanese support, like the 3DS and Vita)

Botw and MK8 are tons of fun.

So is Wonder boy and Snake Pass, we will be getting Hollow Knight soon.

ARMS and Splatoon 2 are also around the corner with more stuff probably getting announced at E3.

All things that can very well be in Xenoblade 2, provided you just wait for more than a minute and a half of footage? Music especially, they got ACE+ back and the main composer is fucking Yasunori Mitsuda. Chill out and wait for more, gee.

Over the line. You've never played it anyway, and dismissed it based on the artstyle when it looks really good in motion and the game itself is anything but shovelware. You know what? Fuck you, that game deserved much better than the complete flop it was.

>>375513461
All of this plus Bomberman is more than enough for me.

Might pick up Minna de WaiWai Splunker too if Arms doesn't pan out.

>>375514071
Arms and splatoon didn't get dates until very recently, yet nobody ever tried to meme them into slipping. So why is xenoblade getting singled out? Are Sonynygglets that rattled by some weeb shit rpg? Sure, they're having to eat some poo-filled high school simulator and pretend it's cake... so maybe that's it, they don't like that the switch is getting less embarrassing weabo shit than the PS4...

Difference is that Wii U flopped and Switch didn't. Guess which one makes you an idiot for buying.

>You probably have a Wii U
Nah, Wii U sucked ass. Would never buy such a shitty console.

>>375516290
>Difference is that Wii U flopped and Switch didn't.
BotW sales indicate that most Switch owners are former Wii U owners. Wii U had a successful launch too. It's still far too early to call the Switch a success, as momentum could dissipate rapidly once the drones get theirs. The shortage is already ending with most stores having a few units sitting around

>>375516290
The Wii U had the best library up until the last few months. If that didn't appeal to you there is no reason to expect anything different from the switch. Even if it sells better you still won't get multiplatform games due to the difference in power.

Switch owner: While I loved BoTW, and MK8:D is great fun, hold off until later. There will more then likely be bundles later on, and the artificial scarcity will make finding one a pain in the ass. Not to mention lack of VC support currently or any other sort of app make it a paperweight when you do not want to play something on it.

That, and the dock is horrendous and I am scared to put it in there every time. The lack of save backup also makes me nervous about taking it on trips or out of the house in-case it gets stolen/broken.

>>375515605
>Arms and splatoon didn't get dates until very recently
They had more specific windows. Obviously Nintendo couldn't delay every game until 2018 or the Switch would have serious droughts. ARMS looks like a very simple game and they've shown a lot of it. Splatoon 2 looks like Splatoon DLC for fuck's sake. No one is expecting these things to get delayed, just like no one was expecting a MK8D delay

Xeno2 on the other hand is a huge game with a log of dialogue to translate. And a vague "2017" release date when at least Odyssey gets a "Holiday 2017" release window. You do realize that the holiday season goes until the end of the year, right? At what point is Xeno 2 supposed to release? BEFORE the holidays? Are you shitting me? It will take 6 months minimum just to localize the Japanese into English (and other languages). Anyone who is not an idiot sees that "2017" is just a placeholder for some 2018 release date, or possibly even beyond.

Wanting ports of games you say sucked ass is the part I am confused about. If you were just waiting for the next better console to play them, why not do it again? Switch will probably also have a shorter than normal life if Sony and MS make new consoles that force Nintendo to move on as well.

>>375517963

Sony already did the second round with PS4 pro and that didn't work out so well.

Microsoft succeeding the scorpio is also questionable if they really are aiming for the windows box thing.

This is pretty much to be expected for a multiplayer focused game. You don't want to change too much and risk messing up what made the first game work so well. Right now it is the one game that tempts me to buy a Switch before they lock online play.

>>375517454
They could be aiming for a worldwide release, you know, localizing as it's being developed. Like they do with Pokémon nowadays.

>>375518093
The Pro and Scorpio are not new consoles. They are just mid-generation upgrades that play the same games similar to the N3DS.

>>375517945
You're right, I'm sure Wii U owners simply don't know about the game that's been advertised to them since 2014

>>375518262
It seems unlikely. They need weeb games in Japan as soon as they can get them to give the system appeal there. PS4 had a horrible launch for precisely this reason, it only launched with Western trash. What you're saying is that they'd delay the Japanese release

>>375512589

>>375518217

You have to be retarded to seriously believe that. Switch is different from the other consoles.

>>375518792
You're fundamentally dodging the issue. If the same games on the Wii U didn't convince you to own one, what makes those games on Switch any more convincing? If you didn't like the games on Wii U it would be one thing, that's a very understandable reason for not getting a Wii U. But in that case, why would you get a Switch for the very same games?

>>375518983
Because a flop doesn't get any games, idiot. Switch is going to live for a long time with full Japanese support. Personally I couldn't care less about Western support, they only make shit anyway.

>>375518208
pretty much this.

>>375519213
So you bought a system on the prospect of games that haven't even been promised to you yet?

Do you really think you can get away with calling other people idiots with this kind of mentality? If you are not aware of the irony, you must have a 2-digit IQ.

First year of Switch first-partywise is looking several orders of magnitude better than the Wii U's.

>>375520368
>First year of Switch first-partywise is looking several orders of magnitude better than the Wii U's.
But its only games will be Odyssey, Splatoon 2 and ARMS, only one of which looks any good. I mean, if you think Splatoon 2 is great, then Splatoon 1 is basically identical. What kept you from getting a Wii U for it?

It had the Switch's system seller. The first quarter for PS4 was also the best few months of Jap games that we have had in years. Those few months will alone were better than anything the Switch is offering for the rest of the year and probably longer.

>>375520314
>the Switch will almost catch up in just the first year.
You are the only one delusional here, friend

It takes more than a year to build a respectable library from scratch. By the end of year 1, virtually half of Switch's noteworthy library will consist of Wii U ports. It will require at least another year if there's any hope of matching the Wii U

>>375520551
Name 5 good jap games from those few months

>>375520380
Because it had those games in launch year. When did Wii U get BotW? Oh, that's right. By the time it was already dead. People are all buying it for Switch because they can't even find Wii U anywhere and nobody wants it. Switch is going to get Wii U ports, Vita ports, last gen ports, all on my handheld so I'm very happy. It's only on /v/ people say ports is a bad thing when all it means is more games. Port everything I say.

>>375520748

>>375520551

Fixed that for you. And even then most of that were ports and multiplats, so yeah.

>>375520551

*It had the Switch's system seller without the very attractive portable gimmick, worse frame rate, worse resolution and the knowledge that the Wii U is a dying platform while Switch has the biggest Mario game in 16 years

>>375520776
Gravity Rush 2, Yakuza 0, Nioh, Nier Automata, Persona 5. Only 4 that are exclusive, but that is still more than usual.

>>375521197
I agree that it was an anomaly, but it shows that other consoles that are not handhelds are getting Japanese games.

>>375520914
The thing is, people on /v/ enjoy video games so they already have a Wii U, Vita, last gen consoles, etc. So they've played those games. And the Switch has yet to have "Switch" games.

You, on the other hand, are just a marketer who's trying to sell a new system that doesn't have its own games, pretending like the promise of games (mostly ports) that aren't even confirmed yet is enough to buy a $300 tablet

>>375521506
>Gravity Rush 2, Yakuza 0, Nioh, Nier Automata, Persona 5. Only 4 that are exclusive
3 actually. 2 if you count Yakuza as a PS3 game, which it is.

>>375521087
2 of 5 games being ports is 40%

Like what?
What 7 games have been announced last week?

>>375515332
The game itself takes ages to pick up steam and only becomes good once you finally get your team of 4 which happens around chapter 4 or 5, and even then you constantly have to deal with slow turns even with the speed up, enemies having infinite use of overwatch with precision aiming but your guys on overwatch can't hit the broadside of a barn on top of their steam remaining determining how much they can shoot in overwatch, and you have infinitely spawning enemies.

Don't get me wrong, it's fun, but the beginning fourth of the game is just awful, especially when your only way of healing with infinite enemy spawns at the start is like two or three medkits on the entire field that only heal something like 30 or 40 HP and you take 20 a hit while dealing barely any damage unless you're wasting the handful of grenade things you have or are point blank shooting at a critical spot.

Dude fuck off. I have a Switch because I have expendable income. I'm looking forward to Odyssey and Splatoon 2 and would like to get Hollow Knight on this platform when it comes out for it, but right now there's 0 reasons to get a Switch if you have a Wii U. If you don't have a Wii U, go right ahead, Zelda and Mario Kart are in fact reason enough. But people with a Wii U and hard up on cash should just wait for the price drop.

>>375525660

>>375517454

ARMS has clearly had alot of thought put into how it plays, and there's alot you can do with different fighter / glove combinations. Also fighters in general tend to look short on content because alot more is put into balancing characters and mechanics.

I have a WiiU and I am not able to get ARMS, Puyo Puyo Tetris, or Bomberman. Even if I was I wouldn't be able to play them portably. My next gaming expense after Texas Showdown is a Switch.

You don't buy launch consoles for the games. No console is worth it just for its launch lineup. The only real reason to buy a console at launch is because you're interested in the hardware, interface and getting used to the controller. It's a good way to see if this is what you want to play games on from now on, or if you would rather not.

Are you curious about the joycons?
Having a home console that's also portable?
The power (or lack thereof) of the Switch?
Then get it now. If not, don't.

Nintendo isn't making much profit with each unit sold right now, in fact they are losing money on the joycons by themselves. So no price drop is coming in the foreseeable future. There is no real reason to wait if it's going to be $300 2 years from now to, unless you think a special edition one will come out eventually. If you have disposable income and you are curious, just get it over with so that's one expense you don't have to worry about later. If you can only choose one console for quite a while and don't want to experiment with the Switch tech/controllers, don't get one now.

It's that simple.

That was a feature, but you could also play entirely on the gamepad

The Switch is largely a portable Wii U from my perspective, just without most of the games. Though time will change that, I'm sure Switch will get ports of most worthwhile Wii U games. MK8D is just the beginning

Pretty subjective. One man's 'worth it' is another man's 'fuck you'.

For me, a console is not worth it until it has at least five released games that I want, and that I cannot get on a platform I already own.

Which I why I don't yet have a Wii U, Switch, XBONE, or PS4.

>>375527862
I'm hoping for Bayonetta 2. I bought it and borrowed my friends Wii I for a weekend just to play it.

>>375528247
You can't play five games at once. There are three games out this year that I want for the Switch. It's not hard to believe that it will get two more within its lifetime.

>>375512457
Is it worth it in comparison to what? Any other handheld? Probably, as it's much more powerful than the 3DS, and a good bit more powerful than the Vita. Any other console (including PSTV)? Absolutely not.

To treat this thing as a multiplayer console launches the price astronomically high, ideally needing 300 bucks for the console and one controller, and 70 bucks per each additional controller, PLUS games that never drop in price and are rarely justified in asking so much.

It will probably be a pretty decent handheld, but an absolutely shit console.

>>375528213
>made from $90 in parts
>believing a 3rd party "best guess" analysis over the fact that no company would ever sell accessories for a loss
You are an absolute moron. This is nothing but proof that their analysis was completely wrong.

>>375528247
I hit it on the Wii U and PS4 (I have a toaster for a laptop, which was low-spec in 2010). Xenoblade X, MK8, Smash, Zelda, and all the VC games that I wanted warranted the price.

Considering I don't have a good PC, the PS4 should be obvious. Don't pay for PS+, though.

>>375528590
$300 is really reasonable for a home console, and there are a lot of multiplayer games you can play with just the two joycons. Snipperclips isn't worth its price, but it's still fun to play.

>>375518557
>using Xenoblade as some kind of system seller in Japan
>when the vast majority of sales of both previous games came from the west
uh huh
It would be more rational to ask why they wouldn't go for a global release since all the real business is going to be done with the English version of the game, much like Zelda.

In between playing my Ps4 and ALL the great games out right now.
Aside from some games I'm really looking forward for it coming out to it, no I would not have bought one until sometime this holiday.

That being said it was a gift for my bday from momma and poppa .

>>375528948
Proof that accessories always have huge profit margins? This is an industry truth since its inception. The only loss leader in the industry is the console itself and Nintendo doesn't even do that much. If you think they're taking a loss on every joycon sold, you don't have 2 brain cells to rub together and I have no interest in attempting communication

I got the Taken King Edition PS4 for 200 when the Pro and Slim dropped.

>and there are a lot of multiplayer games you can play with just the two joycons
Just because you can doesn't mean you should. I would literally rather watch grass grow than play anything with a single joycon.

>Snipperclips isn't worth its price, but it's still fun to play.
Which justifies exactly what I said. Meanwhile, I got Bloodborne with all DLC for 30 bucks. I got DS2 Scholar of the first sin for 11 bucks. I got Alien Isolation for 20 bucks. I got Far Cry 4 for 15 bucks. All that, along with the PS4, for the same price as the Switch, which doesn't even come with a game.

It's a good handheld. It's pricey for a handheld, but is also very powerful for one. Its an absolutely shit console.

>>375524351
GDC is Western-centric. With few exceptions, Western developers decided to completely avoid the Switch. The Nips took a cautious approach but with Epic saying there are over 20 UE4 games from Japan alone in development and hints about FF7 remake as well as Tecmo-Koei's more firm commitment to the platform, Switch will safely get Japanese software. It will outsell the PS4's LTD total in a year (that total is abysmal btw, it only just passed the Wii U's over there a few months ago).

If you took this poll now, that number would have changed for sure. It's common sense. The sales of switch caught Nintendo off guard too. Nobody knew it would be as successful as it's been and nobody ignores success.

>>375512457
Breath of the Wild on the Switch is the best version and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a new game. It's a solid console that you can also take on the go. Deal with it.

>>375528443

>There are three games out this year that I want for the Switch

So, not five, and not now.

Look, I just stated my criteria for buying a console, you don't have to agree with me. Three games coming out within the year and probably more later isn't enough for me to justify a purchase yet. The value just isn't there yet. I don't buy based on what is eventually supposed to be there or may be there. I based on what is there at the moment.

I have a buddy who bought a Wii U on the promise of Zelda, only to end up feeling pretty fucked over when they announced the Switch, as an example of why I don't value promises.

If you seriously love Nintendo games and can stand a drip feed of games then yes.

Anything else, no

>>375529687
The ps4 was $400 when it came out. Congrats on getting it when the price dropped, but that doesn't make the Switch's price egregious. It's still cheaper than most consoles on launch.

It sounds like you haven't even tried multiplayer with a single joycon, but that's your loss I guess. I don't really know why you went on a spree of listing off all these other games you got on sale, since that's pretty irrelevant to the Switch. Honestly, the multiplayer experience has always been better on Nintendo consoles than anything else, so if that's really where you want to target your criticism, you're probably going to eat crow in a year or two.

>>375530061
I'm not even basing it on promises, just an easy 99% confidence prediction. What are the odds that the Switch gets one good game a year after this? Feel free to wait, but I'd bet your system produces just as many problems as it does solutions.

>>375527703
It's your router. Go buy an 802.11ac router and only connect to the 5GHz network. Switch has 801.11ac wifi with two spatial streams. Your connection is probably shit because you're connecting to a 2.4GHz SSID on a 802.11n wifi router or access point

>>375512589
You say "fun", but I think your perception of that is a bit skewed.

>>375530094

So what? I mean, you can get a PS4 for 200 bucks now. That's Nintendo's competition at this moment. Launch price is irrelevant. Current price is what matters.

>I don't really know why you went on a spree of listing off all these other games you got on sale, since that's pretty irrelevant to the Switch
I don't know how listing off good games that are available to play on the PS4 at a fair price ISN'T relevant. Or is your argument that Nintendo isn't in competition with Sony, because that's absolutely horseshit, as evidenced by the WiiU..

>Honestly, the multiplayer experience has always been better on Nintendo consoles than anything else,
No arguments there.

>so if that's really where you want to target your criticism, you're probably going to eat crow in a year or two.
I'd only be eating crow if I bought one. And, considering I have a WiiU, I can't imagine that I will. As of this moment in time, there is literally nothing I want that is announced or out on the console.

>>375531043
>considering I have a WiiU

>>375512457
Its only been out for like 2 months. Consoles are never fully worth it until at least 18 months after release.

>>375530938
Because when you are at a store, debating which console to get, and you see a Sony console for 200 and a Nintendo console for 300, you aren't going to change someone's mind by saying, "Yeah, but the PS4 launched at 400, so you should pretend that the PS4 still costs 400."

>>375512769
This.

My friend got it on launch, and he didn't touch it after beating BoTW.
This system is trash right now. Sure, portability is nice, but what is there in the first place to take with?

>>375531174
Nobody considering buying a Switch brand new has been waiting years for the ps4 to fall to half price.

>>375531174
The original context of the argument was him calling the price of the Switch astronomically high. Within the context of launch prices it's actually quite reasonable. That's all my argument was.

>>375530304
Like I said, you don't have to agree with me. You buy consoles your way and that works for you, I buy them my way and that works for me.

I did the same thing for the Wii, and when I eventually bought one, I was able to pick up the console, two extra controllers, and every game I wanted to play on the system for less than what just the console would have run me if I had bought it in the first few years off the console's lifecycle.

I don't play multiplayer games that often, and when I do, it's on the couch with buddies, so I haven't come across any issues with being a late adopter of consoles.

>>375531129
How is it retarded? I got a Wii U a year and a half ago for 200 bucks with 2 games (3D World, which made me swear off 3D Mario games forever), and Nintendoland (meh). Then I got Xenoblade X (great game), MK8 (best MK I've ever played), Smash (I liked it just fine), and Zelda (decent), plus a bunch of VC games (worth it, as my gamesave batteries are dying left, right, and center, plus I don't have a Tube TV anymore).

It was worth it for me. Unfortunately, there's nothing that Nintendo is offering on the Switch that I want that isn't already available on the Wii U.

I find it funny when people start looking at a console as 'wroth it' 2 months after release.

What the fuck did the PS4 have 2 months after release. Knack, Killzone, and sports games ports.

Compared to even most Nintendo consoles, the Switch is far and away the best launch. N64 only had Mario 64 for months, the Gamecube had Luigi's Mansion. Nintendo knocking off Zelda and Mario Kart in 2 months, then Mario in another 6 is fucking quick.

>>375531841
This is what gets me when people complain about the Switch. Nobody complained about the PS4 and Xbone launches. NOW they'll retroactively say that they sucked too, but before, I sure as fuck didn't see people bitching about the sparse launches. It's almost purely because it's Nintendo that there's so much bullshit flying around, and the Switch has plenty of games. The "IT HAS TO BE EXCLUSIVE ONLY" argument is absurd.

>the OS and shit is severely lacking
So?

Seriously, who gives a shit? It's neat that I can have a nifty theme on my PS4 that I see for all of ten seconds as I start up a game, but it's not anything I would miss.

>>375531174
Nobody is going to be debating between buying a PS4 or a Switch. At the moment you can't even just walk into a store and buy the Switch unless you are extremely lucky. But anyways, no consumer is going to the store with the intention of choosing between one device or the other. This hypothetical scenario only exists within the minds of console warrior shitposters on the internet.

The Switch is a portable so it's a secondary console for almost all who buy it. Nobody will buy it instead of one of the other consoles to be their one and only console (unless they have a gaming PC). It's in a league of its own. The other consoles don't have HD screens in them either and require being tethered to a TV and power source at all times.

You clearly don't understand the appeal of the Switch and that's fine. This simply means you have very low intelligence and can't see past your rampant Sony fanboyism.

Which is precisely why I said it was a decent handheld, and a shit console.

>Nobody will buy it instead of one of the other consoles to be their one and only console (unless they have a gaming PC). It's in a league of its own.
Yeah. People made the exact same claim about the WiiU. You had best hope you're wrong if you want it to succeed. Especially considering that they are picking up old games from other consoles, like Skyrim.

>The other consoles don't have HD screens in them either and require being tethered to a TV and power source at all times.
Which is precisely why I said it's a good handheld, but a shit console.

>You clearly don't understand the appeal of the Switch and that's fine.
No, I get it. It's a handheld that lets you play console games, like the vita claimed it would be. And it seems good in that regard. But to get it as though it were a console is fucking retarded (and you seem to agree with that conclusion).

>This simply means you have very low intelligence and can't see past your rampant Sony fanboyism.

If they really cost $257 to make, they would be being sold to retailers at a loss. Retailer markup is 30-40%

>>375533168
Did you forget that I explicitly stated that it was the base model? Oh, and it also includes a game valued at 30 bucks. Other sellers also offer free shipping.

But hey, way to own up to the fact that you were wrong.

>>375512457
My dude. Look at the games and if you want to play them get it. If not go do something else.

Why is this hard?

Just looks like a Zelda machine to me. Might take a second look at it when Splatoon 2 comes around but that's still a bit of a ways off. I can't even remember the last time a console had a stellar release with actual games.

>>375533972
A difference that small does not make the Switch astronomically expensive. Plus, as I pointed out, there are two other models of the ps4 selling for just as much if not more than the Switch right now. One cheaper version of the console does not wipe those out. The switch is reasonably priced.

>>375534292
>Just looks like a Zelda machine to me
That would be the WiiU. Don't think there is a single console Zelda game you can't play on it. The Switch just has BotW.

>>375530304
>m not even basing it on promises, just an easy 99% confidence prediction

Which had been proven to hold no water in the past 7 years in this industry. No one should by platform console because of the possibility of being games, a library must be present. We should not blame consumers if they don't want to adopt something with a barren library.

This is an electronic toy, not life insurance.

>>375534448
Which console gets an average of less than one worthwhile game a year?

>>375534378
>The switch is reasonably priced.
Not when you take into consideration the price of additional controllers and the price of Nintendo games (of which, none come with the console). Which means, as I originally stated, that it is a good handheld, and a shit console.

>>375534448
Well stated. I bought a PS3 at launch assuming that Ace Combat 6 would be released for it, as well as FF Versus XIII.

It took a LONG time for me not to be bitter about that console.

>>375534547
The image I posted did not come with any games or extra controllers, either. At least the Switch's joycons can be used for some two player games, which is more than you can say for anyone else. Every console has accessories.

>>375534528
>Which console gets an average of less than one worthwhile game a year?
I dunno. But if worthwhile games aren't present, the consoles shouldn't be bought.

>>375534697
The switch has one right now, and two more I'm interested in with set release dates this year. Every console gets at least one good game a year, which means the switch will have a full enough library over the course of its life to justify my purchase. Given that, why not buy it and botw now?

>>375512457
The Wii U already has Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8 (as well as 3 other Zelda games). Just buy/stick with a Wii U until then since you can put CFW on there.

Blaster Master looks great.

I have zero desire to buy one, and I even loved the Wii U.

Needs Smash 5, a Pokemon game, something decent with online multi. Maybe an enhanced sequel to Mario Maker, like a Yoshi's Island Maker or something.

>>375537173
>something decent with online multi
Fast RMX, Bomberman, MK8D ...

I mean the thing just came out

>>375537363

MK8 is what, 4 years old and available on the system I already own? And Bomberman is neat, like Blaster Master, but something you likely play for 20-30 hours, max, and never touch again.

I have no idea what Fast RMX is, because the title is so shit.

>>375537584

It's hard to imagine how they'd perfect Mario Maker. I think it's just missing some options/features. I could see them doing a Mario Maker Deluxe with a bit more items and desert stages, etc

Are you literally retarded? MM was great, but it was barely half finished. It's missing like 70% of the content from SMB1-4.

I still loved it, and would adore a sequel. And a Yoshi's Island version would be INSANE.

INSANE

>>375538264
The whole thing about MM is that you could take the same stage and convert it between different Mario games. You couldn't do that with Island or SMB2, those games just didn't have the same assets or even gameplay.

They retrofitted some of the shit, like ghost houses/airships into SMB1, but most of the shit overlapped nicely. I don't see them adding a bunch of shit that doesn't overlap

I think the game is missing desert and ice themed levels which would be easy enough to add. And a few more items/enemies. But other than that it's basically a perfect Mario level maker.

If you add Yoshi's Island or something you're turning it into something else. Not everyone even liked those games. Mario has universal appeal

Master Race here, I love my switch honestly.

Perfect gaming accesory to play while I'm waiting 45 minutes to play a ranked match in League of Legends.

My only gripe is I'm not 100% comfortable with handheld mode or 100% comfortable with docked mode.

It doesn't really "feel" right on either mode. So it's kinda hard to get comfortable during long play sessions.

>The whole thing about MM is that you could take the same stage and convert it between different Mario games.

Which is a horrible feature that serves no purpose other than as a convenient excuse as to why they butchered the SMB3/4 options.

>But other than that it's basically a perfect Mario level maker.

It's missing LITERALLY +70% of Super Mario World content. It's a fantastic game and a brilliant idea, but you're either dellusional or never played SMW.

Even if you ignore the Yoshi's Island thing, imagine a MM2 with complete SMB1-4 content and fucking online co-op.

Do you like rolling the dice on whether or not you'll get stuck with a dead pixel or 2?

Remember that Nintendo considers a few dead pixels to be "normal" and won't give you a replacement.

I recommend waiting till the Switch has decent build quality

Why do Wii U owners suddenly pretend they didn't own a Wii U now that the Switch exists? Is it because it's embarrassing to admit you bought a new hardware to pay for games you already own?

>>375540734
>I recommend waiting till the Switch has decent build quality
Never going to happen. This is Nintendo we're talking about.

>>375540734
>Remember that Nintendo considers a few dead pixels to be "normal" and won't give you a replacement.
Find me a company that doesn't have that worked into their warranty. It literally is normal.

>>375540738
Nah, there's just a whole bunch of people who bought a switch but aren't nintendo fanboys. I have always and will always mock anyone who wasted their money on the wii u

>>375541114
I used to defend Nintendo for not doing underhanded shit like other companies. Paid online. Day one DLC. Full price remasters.

Now it's full Jew mode all the time. "Other companies do it too so it's ok" is now supposed to be a defense. No, being shitty like other companies is not a defense.

>>375541114

I've already had 2 monitors with dead pixels and have ZERO problems returning them for an instant replacement. All my friends and family have been able to do the same.

This would not be the case with the shit-quality Switch.

Also, you'd have to be MAXIMUM fanboy to think dead pixels aren't a constant distraction of the worst kind.

>>375541308
How can you buy a Switch and not be a Nintendo fanboy? If it was a multipurpose tablet, I could see it, but this is a device that ONLY PLAYS VIDEO GAMES, and as of yet the only 2 worthwhile games it has are Nintendo first party games. Not incidentally they are also Wii U ports, which carries a deep sense of irony.

>>375541598
No one will let you return for one or two dead pixels. Literally no one. It's just impossible to guarantee a 100% perfect build quality on all of your monitors.

>>375541598
A dead pixel (not a hot pixel) at the pixel density of a 720p/6" screen is about the size of a speck of dust. How do you manage to keep dust off your screen if you're going to complain about a couple pixels that are the same size?

>>375541686
Apart from the company that made it Botw is a great game. It's also not a port if they came out at the same time and it was optimized for the switch
There's also just the cool factor of something that can be used as either portable or a home console. You'll probably hate on that in some way, but it's the main reason I bought it, it's a cool fucking feature. I doubt I'm the only person who felt that way.

>>375541717

You sound like you've never heard of handhelds before. Are you aware they've been around for as long as consoles have? The PSP even had TV out.

Is there a certain appeal to playing home console games on the go? Well sure, there *would be*, if the Switch *had* any home console games. As of right now it has 2 Wii U ports. If you could play any of these games on the go, it would actually be an interesting device, but the Switch is never going to get actual 8th gen games because it isn't powerful enough to run them. This makes it literally no different than any other Nintendo handheld, because its notable library will be limited to Nintendo first party and a handful of weebshit

Your "I own a Switch but I'm not a Nintendo fan" claim is incredibly dubious. You're either a shill or in serious denial

>>375542897
>As of right now it has 2 Wii U ports
Once again, only idiots own a wii u, so as far as I'm concerned they're exclusives. Botw on the go is awesome, and I'll get a lot of use out of it on my 13 hour plane ride tomorrow.
I get it, you don't think the hybrid nature is cool. There are a lot of people who disagree.

The reason I deleted it is because the post didn't make any sense without the image I forgot.

The idea of playing "home console games on the go" is an appealing one, until you realize it's limited to Nintendo first party. So yes, if that *still* sounds appealing to you, you have to be a drone.

Aslong as Treehouse exists, Nintendo products are not worth your time, especially with the risk of broken/defective hardware.

>>375543873
For AAA 8th gen titles? Absolutely. The Switch won't be getting them because it can't run them. Multiple devs are on the record saying it's not powerful enough to run their games.

Obviously Switch will have loads of indie games, especially with Nintendo making dev kits so cheap this time around.

It will also have the support of low budget weeb games that its handhelds have traditionally enjoyed, like from Atlus, NIS, etc.

But if you're looking for quality home console games, your only option will be Nintendo first party. You won't be able to play the latest GTA or COD or FF or Destiny 2 or AC or... the list goes on and on.

You could simply say you don't care about 3rd party support the Switch won't be getting. But that does kind of solidify my "you are a nintendo Fanboy" argument, since only a Nintendo fanboy would be completely ok with only Nintendo first party support, in addition to all the indie shit you could have played on some other device (not that you even own non-Nintendo devices)
