How the fuck do you not have a switch? What other current system do you know with this many great games out within 9 months of the console releasing?
2017 games:
>Zelda BOTW
>Mario Odyssey
>ARMS
>Mario Kart 8
>Splatoon 2
>Pokken Tournament DX
>Fire Emblem Warriors
>Fast RMX
>Disgaea 5

Because nintendo didn't fucking stock them properly. I've been trying to buy one for months but they instantly sell out in a 100 mile radius of me within 2 min of retail stores opening. I work a 9-5 and I'm not going to pay a fucking scalper.

Nintendo should've planned this shit better

I do.
I got over hyped and looking for weeks for one and finally found a gamestop two hours away that had one. I drove and got it with breath of the wild.
I put 40 hours in it and haven't touched it since. I also bought mario kart 8 day one and probably haven't put 4 hours in it.
It sits next to my computer collecting dust and doing nothing.

It's a fucking paper weight until next year.

Third party games may or may not come, but I don't buy nintendo consoles for those games. I already have a ps4 and PC. It would be nice though for having the choice to play portable.

None of those games interest me.

>BOTW
Multiplat on the PC. Also, too casual, too cinematic, too many problems of open world games.

>Mario Odyssey
Looks alittle too gimmicky. The hat trick doesn't seem very useful in any of the footage shown. At no point would I ever want to be a goomba, and even the bullet bill trick would wear out fast.

>Arms
>splatoon 2
>Mario Kart
>Pokken Tournament
I don't like full priced esport titles, especially ones with no singleplayer, at least that isn't a garbage quality tutorial

>Fire Emblem Warriors
Musous AND fire Emblem are known for being unchallenging hallway simulators (putting them in an open field only makes them appear more free, but it doesn't make the game better). Combining them just amplifies the problem.

>Fast RMX
Poor man's wipeout. Nothing to say.

>Disgaea
>Xenoblade
I don't like cinematic movie games.

Overall, you could've at least mentioned Metroid Prime 4, the first game from nintendo I'm actually looking forward to, even though we don't have much info on it. Let's hope it isn't Federation Force 2.

I probably wont touch it again until SMO or if monster hunter ever comes to it.

After that or maybe possibly beforehand I'll sell it. I'm grown and the portable feature of it is useless to me. If I'm not at home I'm at work and I can't play games at work.

The Switch has no games as of right now. Why the fuck would anyone want one now? Smart move is to wait until the holiday season and pick up the bundles most stores will be pushing at that time.

If you're curious, these are some picks of games that I've thoroughly enjoyed over the past 6 years. And I even include a little synopsis of why I chose them, and it should explain why I don't like the games on the Switch at the moment.

Perhaps it will clarify my position.

I'll buy a switch next year when hype dies down and I can find one

>>
>>380679116
I actually got mine today and have it charging while I'm shit posting at work. I'm retarded and bought one just because Odyssey has my balls blue. It will be a bitch to find in the holiday season so I said fuck it and got a bundle from Target. Otherwise I use my PC for the video game games.

Why would I buy one now. I'll maybe buy one later when there's more games I care about and they have been released.

ARMS won't be fun alone, splatoon is only popular among the dorks here because it is the first multiplayer nintendo game in ever that isn't smash/mariokart, 3 of the games are jap soap operas, the last is an uninspired racing game where the gimmick is to go fast

zelda, mario, mariokart and pokken look decent

Never cared much for zelda, it was a cool way to pass time when i played Twilight Princess on PC, but it's nowhere near a system seller.
>Mario Odyssey
It looks interesting, but the core gameplay is it's still a platformer, if i already had a switch, i might have pirated it or something, but it's not a system seller either, i can play Mario 64 or Mario Sunshine or Galaxy or whatever and get the same experience

>>380679116
Don't care about most Nintendo IPs. Would probably buy one if I did since I like handhelds. I'll get one when the mainline Pokémon game or SMT comes out.
>>
I'll buy it when it gets hacked
>>
It's expensive as fuck here, around 525 USD.

I'm going to the US by the end of the month, so maybe I'll be able to get one for a reasonable price there. But I've heard the stock is shit and the things are really hard to find.
>>
>>380681795
Good luck if this thread is any indication, shit is SOLD OUT
>>
>>380679116

Mario, Xenoblade, and maybe Mario Kart are the only games there worth a damn to me.

I'm not into arena shooters. If I wanted Tekken the best one yet just came out. Not into whatever ARMS is supposed to be. I don't care about FE so an FE Musou is kinda worthless. I have Wipeout so I don't need Fast RMX. If I wanted to waste my time grinding and looking at animu girls I have half a dozen Vita games I could accomplish that with.

>BotW
That's not a Zelda game.

I would just try to find one in-store. There was a Walmart an hour away from my house that had five switches still in stock for retail price.
>>
>>380681542
Not him, but literally Monster Hunter.
Some people bought a Switch expecting it to release later down the line.
It goes to show that it's always better to wait.
>>
>>380681542
I really doubt there is a system seller for me at this point, i guess i just got better things to spend money on than vidya, so requirements for spending money on vidya have went way up for me
i bought a PS4 out of trust for Sony that they will continue their franchises from the previous gen and start many new IPs and it's been gathering dust for two years now
I guess a collection of really great games like the PS2 had would be something i might have bought. More and more games come to PC and i see less and less of an incentive for buying consoles. I don't even play on a proper desktop PC, a "gaming" laptop is all i need.
>>

nigger are you retarded? Splatoon 1 had a singleplayer story campaign that IIRC (watched a playthrough) you ger the guns for multiplayer through that and also can use it to level up.

pokken has a who story tournament thingy that you can go through to become the champ.

mariokart has ALWAYS had 50cc, 100cc, 150cc, and mirror mode that challenge you to get first. later titles also have a bit of extra fluff for getting first in every race in each cup.

You can just say you don't like them man. But don't say they don't have singleplayer content when they do.
>>
>>380679143

>at least that isn't a garbage quality tutorial

Not a single one of those """singleplayers" justify the 60 dollar price tag, let alone the DLC costs.
>>
>>380679116
I like story-heavy singleplayer RPGs and adventures, the darker the better; I never play multiplayer games; I rarely play casual games (occasionally some pinball or some puzzle game); I rarely play racers, and only if they're sims (Dirt Rally).

So that's like the complete antithesis of Nintendo. BotW is literally the only thing I have even a passing interest in, and I'm playing that on PC.

Everything from the shelves up are tied. Power cables going out are too. Everything else is loose so that if something gets pushed/shoved, others won't move with it.

I don't say this often, but consider suicide.

I do appreciate your design desires, and seek them myself often, but some of your reasons are fucking retarded, and I'm very surprised you didn't mention brigador, furi, underrail, hyper light drifter, dare i say it - dark souls 3 (kekkeroni), RAINWORLD?!!??! HOLLOW KNIGHT OVER RAINWORLD ARE YOU KIDDING ME?, literally anything that was in the last few humble bundles are better than reddit knight.

I liked zangeki warp and wolflame a lot, and you have some good taste, but if you're that desperate for mecha games, maybe play some fucking heavy gear assault with me?

and why the fuck did you like runner 2 over antichamber?

and FTL is babby's first roguelite, maybe you should play a real game like angband?

I'm sure Mario Odyssey will be an amazing game but the only reason I see myself buying a Switch for would be a mainline Pokémon Game (and while it's confirmed that GF are working in one, it'll prolly come out in Q4 2018 or Q1 2019).

Yeah, that wouldn't surprise me. It's extremely unfortunate if that is the case -- but regardless, even if they don't port the WiiU version, there will eventually be a Smash of it's own... eventually.

I really want one, and even though I can afford one, I'm too much of a Jew and don't want to spend money. And also, I'm getting pissed off at the lack of western 3rd party support.

Also, if I'm being really honest, the thing I like most about the Switch is the concept of a portable home console, but it seems almost pointless if it won't get the big western 3rd party games. I'm not the biggest Ninty fan though, but I'm even less of a fan of the SJW fueled garbage that a lot of western devs are becoming so the Switch will probably become my main system come 2018.

I still need to get a PS4 also for when RDR2, TLOU2, Death Stranding and DBFighterZ are all out.

I cannot believe this. "Getting good reviews = bad game"?!?!?!?!? That is the most hipster thing I've heard all year, based solely on a retarded stereotypes of VG journalists being too casual. Are you serious? You're also taking off points from a company trying to sell their game, or MAKE A PROFIT? You'd rather a company go bankrupt from making no money from a game, because "hurr durr that translates to a better game". By that logic, the Wii U is the best console ever; universally panned, no marketing, and shitty online.

whats the closest release date for any of the games announced at e3 ?
>>
>>380693897

>That is the most hipster thing I've heard all year, based solely on a retarded stereotypes of VG journalists being too casual.
It's also based on them colluding together to give certain games review scores of their choosing even if it doesn't deserve, and it being confirmed that they take bribes.Plus, why would a game journalist like a good game? They hate anything video gamey, and just want the medium to push their agendas. how many editorials have we seen where developers and journalists talk about how "gender diversity" and "political correctness" are far more important than gameplay?

>You're also taking off points from a company trying to sell their game, or MAKE A PROFIT?
No, I'm simply asking why I'm paying more than 60 dollars per game for DLC that should be in the base game, not to mention the game being 60 in the first place, which means they wasted money where it wasn't needed, or they spent too much on marketing.

>By that logic, the Wii U is the best console ever; universally panned, no marketing, and shitty online.
At the very least it was better than the Xbox and Ps4, if only because they spent less money on marketing and tried making games, instead of being cinematic movies that pandered to the Call of Duty fratbros. Granted, those were still on the WiiU, but in lesser amounts.
>>

Wouldn't I be contrarian by supporting Nintendo above all else, since their consoles have been selling the least this gen? If anything you'd have better luck accusing me of being a normie, since I play on PC which is vastly populated, although alot of people don't use them to play games sadly.

>>380694386
do you really think ALL video game journalists have agenda's? what agenda's could they possibly have? They aren't politicians. And examples of bribery in review scores are few and far between, and have NEVER been reported to have occurred between nintendo and VG journalists. no journalists in the video game industry puts PC over gameplay, because they actually care about the industry they work in, and care about keeping a job.
>how many editorials have we seen where developers and journalists talk about how "gender diversity" and "political correctness" are far more important than gameplay?
none. fucking none. I have not seen one journalist claim that gameplay isn't as important as politics in games. and no, I'm not talking about shitheads like Anita Sarkeesian. Nobody in the VG community, let alone VG journalists, take those people seriously.
Also, the idea that a $60 game inherently wasted money is a brash assumption. I don't think you realize that a marketing team and a video game development team are two totally different entities. none of the budget used for developing the game goes into marketing. imagine developing a game like botw, and selling it for 20 dollars. how much money would they lose? the budget for that game was much more than some shitty indie game on steam. And no, the wii u and its 4 games are not as good as the ps4, which, believe it or not, isn't only movies with short times of controlling the character.

I'd rather wait for New Switch.

>do you really think ALL video game journalists have agenda's?
Yes. They've demonstrated that years and years ago, and still do to this day.

>what agenda's could they possibly have?
Anything that fits their ego, or nets them a profit. This E3 was a perfect example, especially how they put diversity and strong black women characters into ALL of their games. That's not a problem normally, but they put more emphasis on that than actually making a good game, and their trailers didn't even contain gameplay. They were scripted cutscenes masquerading as playable segments.

>NEVER been reported to have occurred between nintendo and VG journalists.
That's because nintendo is the richest company in the industry. If they outed any corruption there, they'd be blacklisted from ever reviewing their games early again. Plus, Nintendo has a way of silencing dissent, like when a game of theirs gets low reviews or a trailer gets alot of critique, they will instantly hide the comments, the like bar, and ban anyone from saying anything negative. It's happened at least twice in the past 2 years.

>no journalists in the video game industry puts PC over gameplay, because they actually care about the industry they work in, and care about keeping a job.
Anon, please. ANON, PLEASE. Look at articles like this and say they don't favor being PC over having a good product.

>none. fucking none.
I have an article for you then.

>I don't think you realize that a marketing team and a video game development team are two totally different entities. none of the budget used for developing the game goes into marketing.
The game has an overall budget. The more they spend on marketing, the more the game has to sell to make that budget back. That marketing division isn't paid with magic play-money. Because of that, you can't have a good quality niche game that sells decently. You gotta have a massive normie appealing game that guarantees you a return investment. (cont'd)

>imagine developing a game like botw, and selling it for 20 dollars. how much money would they lose? the budget for that game was much more than some shitty indie game on steam
That's their fault for wasting money on voice acting, graphics, and celebrity endorsements. Nobody told Nintendo that they had to compete with the graphics whores of the modern era, but they chose to, and they chose to waste money. Imagine if this wasn't Zelda and they weren't guaranteed several million right off the bat.Infact, the brand name was the only reason it was a safe investment. Try that with Metroid, and you'd be lucky to get even a quarter of the sales, and that's all money down the drain. That's why Metroid, for example, needs to stay minimalistic in its graphics and story. You can't afford to waste money you know you're not getting back.

>And no, the wii u and its 4 games are not as good as the ps4, which, believe it or not, isn't only movies with short times of controlling the character.
The Ps4's only redeeming factor is its multiplats, which are already on other systems. Games like Uncharted and TLOU just aren't appealing unless you're a normie who likes cinematic art games. If you already have a PC, then it makes the console redundant.
