nothing as far as i understand, you're just trying to start a console war thread and generally shitting up this board. don't even own a switch btw.

seriously I bought the switch for Zelda because wii u's were the same fucking price as a switch and they still haven't released a single fucking game that looks interesting in the least.

>>382550526
No. Game.

>>382550772
Oh look, it's the exact same picture of a store proven to be before business hours that idiots keep reposting thinking it's indicative of supply everywhere. Cute.

>>382550998
I got that Gunvolt/MN9 spinoff crossover thing and Blaster Master.

Not for everybody but pretty much the exact shit I like.

>>382551109
There are 6 of them at my local walmart. I was just there an hour ago. I dont get this meme.

Shovel Knight is a really sick game and the treasure trove thing has so much stuff in it now.

I wont buy it on the Switch though because I already own it twice.


Zelda Seasons pass I dont know yet. The first part of it isnt amazing from the looks of it, the next part of it is supposed to bring a new story to play through, I will consider picking it up then.

That's mostly due to supply issues anon. Apparently Apple also uses some of the mobile parts that are in the Switch and that is why shortages are continuing.

>>382553019
>M- M- M- M-... M-MUH SUPPLY ISSUES
How long you gonna keep this up? When it's 2019 and the PS4 is still outselling the Switch and Apple is still using those parts, are you still gonna blame it on supply issues?

As long as it remains true, it's not about defending Nintendo. I do not think the Switch will do better in the PS4 during the longterm, but this is a real issue. Japanese retailers have held lotteries for people that want to buy them.

>>382551187
Yeah and they're sold out everywhere where I live.

>>382550998
It launched with more games than PS4 had for several years.

>>382551187
Your store is only a small part of a much larger global supply chain. If they send each retailer X Switches they may not sell out at every location, but that doesn't mean there isn't a systematic shortage. This is actually pretty obvious anon.

Dunno if the switch will have other games in the future that interest me, but it has the better version of BOTW, while WiiU has maybe a couple games more but at a lower quality

>>382554556
I promise you if since launch you could just any time go on Amazon and buy a Switch most people who have one wouldn't have bothered.

Not even trying to be funny but I'd 100% support a mechanic that makes it so that when any given fighting game detects you're not playing on a wired connection, you don't get to play online period. SFV with the crossplay, it's SO painfully obvious 90% of playstation users play wireless. God fuck get a fucking LAN cable how hard can it fucking be, what the hell is up with that, it's a console that never gets moved...! Just because it's got an inbuild wlan module people refrain from getting a fucking 5 bucks cable, which could improve their connection tenfold, blows my mind.

>>382554079
>Neo Geo ports
Legit question: why are people buying these?

>>382555925
They're cheaper than most of the games on the e-shop (5 bucks each one).

>>382550772
Bumfuck, Kansas doesn't count.

>>382550526
stock issues that will ultimately hurt it no matter what, no matter how appealing the system is right now, if you can't get it, peoples attention will be pushed onto consoles they CAN get, and coming this holiday, there's going to be plenty of xboxX's and Ps4/ps4 Pro's compared to switch, some people will bite due to sales or a shiny new power consoles, and nintendo loses those potential customers, because only a 30-100k can get it in jpn those months, and probably maybe only 500k best rest of the world, while ps4/xbox see 1million+ ww in novemeber/december.

Nitnendo is also locked to the same wiiu crowd essentially. $300 (mostly out of moms range to buy for kids excluding christmas/birthday gifts), most of the big bangers coming out or have came out, are the same old nintendo IP,same old crowd. Will do better than wii U most likely (and better do 3x as good at least), but they're never hitting Wii numbers ever again, and the usual sales of ninty consoles is some 60m lifetime.

Saving grace is also being a handheld, but in turn they also don't have a new handheld only division that rakes in 60m+ ON TOP of the console, like previous gens. So to be really worth it switch would have to be 100M+ lifetime, since Wii not only did gangtsa numbers, the DS also did gangsta numbers beside it.

i want to like nintendo like i used to. i really do. but they keep not only dropping the ball, but dropping the ball, then tripping over their shoe laces and falling face first into the ball, smashing their teeth up into their gums and cheeks and causing all kind of fucking hideous gore to leak out of their head and onto the ball.

The switch's tech isn't even a decade old though; the Tegra X1 chip came out 2 years ago

>>382550526
No games and it does not know what it wants to be. Not powerful enough to run the new AAA games, and for mobile Nintendo already have the 3DS, which the publishers will choose because of it's massive user base. The games line up feels like the WiiU all over again, it's going to have a few gems but struggle to get a meaningful library.
