Battery is terrible.
Specs are super mediocre in general, for a home console, and even a portable (average cell phone has better specs for goodness sake).
Little third-party support, of which has only been getting worse as more news floats to the surface.
Has decent exclusives, but none that catch my eye enough to spend the full $60 on, especially seeing as more ports are confirmed and I already got tricked into buying a Wii U once before.
Also refuse to let a company cuck me by making me pay for online, considering how insulting that is to people that actually buy the console and the games in the first place, as well as pay their own Internet bill.

I could go on, but those are the basics in my eyes.

Maybe when the Switch gets an updated and cheaper model like how the DS and 3DS family does I will consider buying it, but if that battery does not change then I just refuse to give it a second thought.
>>

Nah, my cell phone came unlocked, after taxes, no contract, base specs for 337 dollars and even at that price it is on par with the Switch. In fact, my cell phone has more ram than the switch and a better native screen resolution to boot.

Oh, and my phone also has a removable battery, so even if something happens to the battery, all I gotta do is a replace it myself for cheap, instead of sending it off, under a limited warranty to Nintendo.

Believe it or not, anon, but smart consumers do not go out and buy the latest Iphone, Samsung Galaxy, or whatever flash in the pan flagship cell phone comes out for the week.

a higher res screen for a dedicated gaming device would just make battery life worse for little visual benefit

Games run at 1080p docked. If they ran at 1080p in portable mode the battery would last 10 minutes. And so would your phone if it tried to run these games.

Who else has such a feature? Oh right, Steam does with their retarded steam Overlay, that works like shite. ANd pretty much every modern console since the DS has an internet browser. Nintendo's approach was the best one, because it simply worked fine. There's no reason why the switch shouldn't have one.

Honestly, the only thing holding me back is the lack of save game transfers. it's something i'm really autistic about. Especially considering the Switch has such shit internal storage. I want to be able to transfer my save games if needed.

I bought the wii u for $350 and felt burnt after all the false hype and promises. Also my taste in games have change over the course of three years and i explored other consoles and games. I'm no longer interested in nintendo games anymore and mostly use the wii u now a days for tekken tag 2 or blacks op 2 multiplayer. The switch is only getting anime Japanese games and nintendo games for christ sake. That's not even worth $300 or what ever scalpers are charging imo.

Doesn't really matter since Switch is a portable and every one of Nintendo's portables got revisions, so it's extremely likely that Switch will get a revision with better battery life and performance. Though I think it will take at least 3-4 years to happen.

Yes, but it was actually removing stuff instead of adding it because Nintendo doesn't like you.

>>
>>383179159
if you want an honest answer its the games. buying a wii u was completely on me so im not going to say i was tricked or whatever into getting one. it was my own fault, it was a stupid decision and a terrible investment for me.

the only games i played a ton of was monster hunter 3 ultimate and rayman legends, both of which arent even nintendo games. smash bros was ok for a bit but i got tired of it, mario kart 8 was really cool so im not gonna hate on it. tried that splatoon demo when it came out and didnt like it at all, borrowed bayonetta 2 from a friend and got pretty far in 1 but got sick of it and then stopped. jumped into 2 just because and didnt care for it either.

i borrowed a decent number of games from friends for wii u and none of them left any lasting impressions on me. nintendo games just dont do shit for me anymore.

I got one but my little sister doesn't work and can't buy one. She's been keeping up with Splatoon 2 news and keeps hyping over the game she won't get to play. I feel bad for her but even if she, as a 12 year old, can scrounge up enough money odds are she won't be able to find one to buy

>>
>>383183782
I've been to three different locations in the last month and the only ones they have are the bundles that force a bunch of shit down your throat that you don't need. And even at that, they only have the empty boxes on display and force you to place an order online.

Did they physically have the $300 consoles there? Honestly, I know I'm going to spend at least $500 starting off and I'm okay with that, but I refuse to buy the bundled bullshit on principle.
>>
>>383172007

Cuz I can't fuckin find one. Best Buy is supposed to have their shipment tomorrow, so hopefully they'll get a few. Gonna go at open and hope for the best.
>>
>>383174567
I really wish I could disable listings from the scalping fuckheads.

I don't care if the order is "fulfilled by amazon", it's a third party seller and they're listing at 400$+ fuck you.

>>
>>383172007

>>
>>383172007
Because its a Nintendo console.
The first year people keep talking about how this one does have third party support(this started after the gamecube)
Then the second year people will be raving about those 5-10 exclusives they got and HOW THE FUCK DID YOU NOT BUY IT YET.
The third year there are barely any third party games and it will become a wasteland again.
>>
>>383184841
This is a problem too.
Yes, gamestop does often have them, and they're bundled with shit I don't want.

>>
>>383185650
Pretty much this. The closest one I've found to what I actually want is the BotW bundle, and consequently, this is also the hardest to find.

Still, I will never end up using that carrying case that they package with it. I never play games on the go, and even if I did, I have an old tablet case that would work for it perfectly. It might be one thing if they bundled the whole thing at a discount, but the fact that they charge full price for each constituent element seems like a ripoff.
