Is anyone disappointed about the lackluster third party support?

no because I wasn't retarded enough to expect it in the first place

Day Oner here, i am, and it worries me.

>>384049476
yea but im just buying it for the exclusives

>>384049476

It literally just came out

>>384049476
Once the install base gets 20+Million I expect Japanese third partys to jump in, until then Nintendo needs to do 3rd party deals like they've done in the past

>>384049476
I wasn't expecting any, why would I be disappointed?

New system

>>384049476
It's only the first year. The 3DS had a rough start too.
It'll grow into its library.

I don't blame them for not supporting this trash

>>384053006
That's not a real excuse when Nintendo stopped supporting the Wii U in the end of 2015. They've had years to get ready for the Switch.

>>384049476
Not really, no.

I have nearly 1k games on Steam, a PS4, a 3DS, and and Xbone.

I have my Nintendo Switch to play Nintendo games, and there are a few I am looking forward to.

>>384049476
No, because I have a PC and PS4 for that stuff.

Sony gave out dev kits way before and still had no games in it's first year. EA is supporting the Switch so far but people seem to conveniently ignore them.

>it doesn't matter
welp good claim that wraps up the third party argument have a nice day

>>384049476
>>384049586
Exactly. We want the games as photorealistic as possible.

To be honest it's surprising there are no games what requires the maximum spec possible for current year.
Like, the latest and most powerfull CPU and motherboard with latest most powerfull Nvidia/AMV and latest and most powerfull and fast maximum GB RAM.

I'm being sarcastic. But normal western gamers and devs want really to the games be real life simulator like Matrix, or be playable holywood movie.
If you think that way, the most natural way is go powerhouse until PS4 or Microsoft discontinue their consoles it because devs wants too much power and can't deliver it with less than 500 dollars.

>Buying consoles on launch date
Are you fucking retarded?
Literally every fucking console since I can remember had tons of problems on launch, I dodged the problem by buying consoles at least after 6 months of release.
Worked for me with PS4 and Switch which had notorious problems at launch.

I don't really give a shit, I'd rather anything third party be either released on 3DS or Vita for better portability or PS4 or PC for better performance

>>384049595

I'm not worried. Some good games coming second half of the year combined with 1st party games there isn't going to be nearly the shortage as first 3 months. There has been some 3rd party support creeping in and I expect it to continue to grow as the years go on. First you must understand that these big cinematic AAA games will never come to the console. Don't even know why you'd want to play those on a handheld to begin with.

>>384049586
Came here to post this. Nintendo's gaming formats haven't been solid nor competent for nearly a decade, so there's no reason to expect competency from them now.

>>384049476
Nope. You buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games. It's been this way since the n64.

>>384049476
You clearly don't keep up with gaming news.

>>384055820

And Steep, which I never played but always wanted to. Also Xenoverse 2 which I again never played but wanted to. Probably won't get FIFA but NBA2K18 I will. FIngers crossed for Bayonetta 2 as well.

yeah right, the niggers of sony wouldn't be assblasted about the switch now would they

>>384055743
Because Xbox One X spec tablet would be way more expensive to buy.
Switch would be a good idea but it come too late.
PS4 and One will be discontinued fast if not ignored.
Devs will force the gamers to buy the latest version of PS4 or One X.
The difference between the spec become too big again.

The most intelligent way to go is forget it is an console and go full portable with capability to connect to tv.

Don't care. I bought it for first party titles, and got my money's worth.

They DID promise third party support. And so far they haven't really lived up to expectations in that regard. I think it's reasonable to hold Nintendo to what they promised.

>>384058918
this...why would you just have a Nintendo console only? Nintendo consoles in my opinion have always been good secondary console with my PC

>>384058164
Delete your post you sad sack of shit.

>>384058721
I have bought almost every single console on launch since the NES and never had a problem with a single one of them until now.

Even my original DS Phat is sitting on my desk in the bedroom and doesn't have any of the supposed issues everyone else had with it like screens and hinge cracking.

>>384049476
well considering I have already bought 4 games in the first 4 months, thats more games that I bought in the same time frame with my PS4 and/or my Xbone, so no, I do get 3rd party games when available on the system, but it doesn't dictate my enjoyment of it.

>>384059551

>>Switch selling better in the same time frame than the PS4 was, not even released during the holidays

Nope, PS4 is crushing it


>>their GOTY completely overshadowed by BotW

Horizon? It sold fine and got great reception

>>BotW generating tons of salt daily on /v/

Not really


>Nope, no reason at all.

Yup, no reason at all.

>>384059793

>>384053961
umm i don't know mate.... maybe mario, zelda, splatoon etc????????

>>384059903
>>>Switch selling better in the same time frame than the PS4 was, not even released during the holidays

Pretty much it was, until it died down after launch. Still, the Switch is selling really well for it not being the holidays and the sales is kind of neck and neck everywhere except Japan, where the Switch is crushing the PS4.

>>>their GOTY completely overshadowed by BotW

Both of the games were nice, stop comparing the both and agree we are lucky to have two good games.

>>>BotW generating tons of salt daily on /v/
>Not really

Yes really, believe me, YES really.

>Nope, no reason at all
>Yup, no reason at all

More like this argument has no reason

I wouldn't be if ARMS and Splatoon 2 didn't feel like $20 throwaway games you'd find on Steam or if MH was getting localised but we live in the shit timeline.

I'm starting to worry.

>>384049476
No. I expected it. I buy Nintendo products for Nintendo games. Anyone who thought we'd be getting a call of duty or, fuck me in the ass, a dark souls game, was a complete idiot.

As a dev I wish I could afford to put my shitty solo projects on Nintendo stuff. But as a consumer I kind of appreciate the barrier to entry.

I work at an indie studio and we make some cool shit. But buying a $3000 dev kit to put up my game I know maybe 1000 people will buy when it's out up against Mario and Zelda is just dumb. Oh well.

>>384059551
It's just retards, doesn't matter if it's from sony or nintendo.
I don't buy consoles or games because they are popular or sell well, I just pick the ones that I might enjoy.
I'm waiting both for ps4 and switch exclusives to be released, there is no reason to be so salty about having a single console and playing less games.

>Nintendo
>third party support
Honestly I don't get why anyone would buy this thing now. Breath of the Wild is fantastic, but no one game is worth buying a system for. Do ARMS and Splatoon really make it worthwhile for people? I dunno, I guess they just don't appeal to me. Metroid Prime 4 announcement made me sit up and take notice, but I'm not interested until that, Odyssey and Xenoblade are all out.

>>384059551
>Switch selling better in the same time frame than the PS4 was
>>384059903
>Nope, PS4 is crushing it

By the available numbers, the Switch is outselling the Xbox One in the same time frame but not the PS4. The Switch had a better launch, but softer following weeks due to shortage.

>>384055743
Because Nintendo has spent every generation since the SNES pissing off 3rd party publishers. From their decision to use carts instead of CDs, to their decision to use tiny novelty discs instead of DVDs, to their decision to release the Gamecube again but with a shitty motion controller

>>384049476
No cause I have a PS4/PC. Why would you buy a Nintendo console for 3rd party titles and not just Nintendo games? Stop being retarded.

>>384049476
Yes. It's somehow even worse than the Wii U

If switch was not a handheld there wouldn't be such a high double standard

>>384049476
It's something I've come to expect with Nintendo by now. Aside from the Wii, Nintendo's home consoles haven't had as much third-party support as their competitors since the SNES.

>>384049476
>Is anyone disappointed about the Nintendo's third party support history since 1996?
What a retard.

>>384059903
You need to learn about marginal value and marginal worth. The PS4 is now being sold for roughly 260 dollars, cheaper than the switch.

The PS4 is selling more based on stock and yet decreased its value price to stay competitive. That is a loss.

>>384061892
>no real exclusives
there aren't any games that appeal to me so instead of just playing the games on the console that does appeal to me I'm just gonna shit on someone else's on the internet

that's a long translation o_o

I recently bought switch mostly because I wanted to play Splatoon 2 with my friend, already got Zelda and thinking about Disgaea 5.
I wish they could make Animal Crossing, Pikmin and Bayonetta 1,2,3 for switch, but at least there will be new mario, kirby and metroid.

Also, why are you bringing it in the first place?

Your post doesn't make sense.

I'm trying to explain to you that as a customer you see a profit because of numbers. As a business, Sony is not making a worthwhile profit margin to sustain the PS4 by itself but with additions. With the release of the Switch the PS4's WORTH has been devalued. Current trends look nice but for anyone in business, you would be a fool to think you can look at gross profit by current trends and not the differences at the start of the life cycle.

Why is /v/ so desperate to pretend the switch isn't a success?

>>384049586
why did anyone post after this

>>384064897
Well, the Wii U was a "success" at launch

We will have to see if the console still keeps momentum

>>384049476
I would like Code Vein on it. But in general I am not exactly concerned. Most "weeb" games as they tend to be called appear to get Switch support and those are the kind of games I play the most.

And support for the Switch will likely increase now that the Switch is already out, has had a good launch. And now when there are devkits available before they start developing their games as opposed to two thirds into development.

>>384064961
No it wasn't. The Wii U was everywhere after a month. The switch has been sold out for 4.5 months now

>>384065078
>sold out

I can find tons of Switch consoles where i live

>>384065175
yeah but you live in your head, so.

>>384064660
MH will be back on the Switch. MH:W is a spin off. In Japan, the handheld aspect of MH is such an important part of the series.

Japanese people think online gaming is for autístic retards, because it is. It’s why 3ds dominated over there – it was the most practical way to play games with your friends without autistic online play.

With PS4 I waited a little over a year after release until I bought it. Bought it back in 2015 the day after I got back from a convention.

>>384066579
I bought PS4 when they released that full matte model before Slim was announced.

I don't mean to be the "B-b-but Sony" guy, but did the PS4 and X1 ever get this much shit 4 months in with their barebones library?

If / when I get a Switch I would still probably get multiplats on PC or PS4 as I'd imagine they'd play better on that.

>>384067218
Yes, they did actually. But it was, as you said, "shit".

>>384067218
Yes. Xbone hasn't changed and PS4 gets a lot of shit (although I feel like it decreased a but when Bloodborne came out)

>>384055846
suck my fucking dick you fucking retard

>>384067040
It's really funny, I play on my PS4 with games that most publishers try to push the graphics of the shitty laptop hardware to it's limits and market it but forget to make a good story, gameplay and animations.
Now I could even flip out my 3DS and every single main Nintendo game has fun gameplay and smooth animations with pleasant to the eye graphics and not some hyper realistic graphics.
Pretty much what I play on PS4 are games from small developers, wouldn't touch the shit like Horizon that looks like wank shit.
3DS and Switch might be cheap chink toys but with honest heart I can say that the games released are full of quality and put care into them, no shitty marketing and hype over a generic movie game.
