That's literally not true, and if you think so you know nothing about hardware. Your phone from three years ago coulf barely run an n64 game, not to mention the switch is probably also 1/3rd the price of said phone

It kind of does considering the only reason the Switch sales are stagnating is because they literally can't make anymore.

Also the PS3 had a handful of titles no one remembers from launch, whereas the Switch had BoTW.

>>381896587
>Switch costs more than PS4
Actually the PS4 launch price was 400 USD, whereas the Switch is only 300. If you adjust for inflation it's even cheaper.

>>381896264
The Tegra X1 in the Switch is supposedly about on par with the Apple A9x in the iPad Pro from 2 years ago.

>>381893881

As an Ausfag I can't help but laugh at this.

>Could walk into any store on launch, plenty of stock, no lines, just like any other day.

>Stores are still packed with stock now

>Switches on the second hard market here are already depreciating like crazy

>Meanwhile people in the US and Japan can't even buy one new

>>381896587
Most Japanese game consumers prefer either handhelds, mobile phones or PC these days. This is why Sony and it's bigger Japanese third parties focus more on appealing to Western gamers now, because home consoles just aren't what they used to be there. Unless Sony releases a Vita successor, they may not have a firm grasp on japan in the future. Also, a lot of Japs who own a ps4 still have incentive to buy a Switch. It's not as though you can't own both or as though Japanese Sony consumers don't also have money saved by now after buying their PS4 one or two years ago to buy another console to compliment their PS4

>>381897075

Splatoon 2's launch week is going to be a massacre.

>Salty nips with no Switches committing felonies to get their hands on one, or committing sudoku

I get irrationally angry at Nintendo shortages. Even more so when there are people making excuses for it. And after doing a quick read on the subject it seems unlikely to get better over time. Unless people decide to stop buying iPhones. Which, hey, it could happen... But I wouldn't hold my breath. Since Apple and Nintendo are using Mobile parts and Apple gets more orders, Apple gets priority. Apparently. This is from a Fortune article, you can google it.

>>381897094
Then why couldn't the iPad pro run any full tier 3d games? Not to mention the switch is less than half the price of an iPad

>>381897424
The day Splatoon 2 launches, all my regret getting Switch at launch will be erased.

>>381894018
>Europe is >50% of PS4's sales

ports of a dead system don't count?

Regardless, MK8D has new content and BOTW was a dual release, so, lol. ARMS is good too and there's plenty of great games on the eShop like Graceful Explosion Machine, Neo Geo ports, D5 and shit like that.

And of course portability :)

It can. Just no one wants to make decent games for iPad because it's a shit gaming platform and Apple's policies kind of hold it back (ie. your game has to be usable with just touch controls alone, you can't require a controller).

I really don't give a fuck if Switch is technically outdated technology. I love my Switch either way. Graphics can enhance games, but they don't make games.

Switch is a great gaming platform, regardless of its CPU/GPU.

>>381894794
Also it's about $260 there rather than $300

What sort of money are scalpers asking for Switches in the US at the moment?

It just doesn't make any sense.

The pc can also be used for every single else, while the console can maybe play music and lets you watch a movie (if you are lucky).

>>381897452

the problem isn't really power when it comes to mobile games, it' battery life. I'm not going to spend more than 30 minutes playing a game when it's going to drain up to half or more of my battery, and that's for a somewhat simple game.

>>381897568
I wasn't too disappointed with the early adoption, but I've pre-ordered almost every major game for this year and I pre-ordered Splatoon 2 and the Splatoon 2 Amiibo so for me it's been pretty good. I got Arms, Blaster Master, Bomberman and Shantae to keep me busy until Splatoon 2. Got Fire Emblem Warriors, Odyssey and Xenoblade on preorder. Will probably get Disgaea when used copies get low enough

>>381897874

The Switch isn't a console, it's a handheld.

>>381898106
The remasters for the PS4 were of games people had played long ago and were more or less just an uprez texture pack. BOTW was released completely new and was an incredible game, and MK8D adds additional modes, and don't forget that the Switch brings portability to the table. All PS4 had for like the first year was ...knack?

iPad has great battery life, but that's made possible by a CPU that emphasizes a "hurry up and wait" -- ie. get a fuck done of processing done, then turn most of the CPU off for a short while while the scheduler does its job.

Constant, heavy draw calls to the GPU drain the battery a lot faster than, say, just web browsing.
