A quick way to check what this thing can actually do is to check on youtube for games running on the geforce 820m
This jobber video chip is most likely around the power level of the switch when undocked, with it's incredible 240Gflops being pushed by the hot, hot architecture of the fermi, and a slow memory.

There's a reason why physics engines like box2D, bullet, havok etc all tell you to NOT constantly change the frame rate of the simulation.
It's fucking awful.
But they could had done the sane thing and ran the physics on a separate thread that runs at a constant frame rate, and then use DR to smooth out the object movement.

I'm curious what aspect of the Switch counts as "magical"?

The hardware is under powered vs current generation hardware, to say nothing of future consoles. The hardware hamstrings the hardware and prevents meaningful third party development.

The hardware is poorly designed (you can't charge and have it on stand, dock scratches screen, controllers can be put on incorrectly and then are not removable, heat can warp console, etc).

All of the peripherals are overpriced vs any of the competition which rapidly inflates the cost of the console.

The online service of the system is laughable. Terrible implementation of multiplayer and voice chat that requires a bunch of superfluous dongles and wires, requires a cellphone app, etc. Its the worst part of a system that makes many trade-offs to be portable. The online service doesn't even come close to the level of PSN or XBL and a lot of standard features still aren't implemented.

The system is lacking in both home and mobile features. You can't watch videos or use Netflix like other consoles, even the Vita. You can't browse the web, listen to music, or use email/messaging like other portable devices (tablets, phones). The battery life is poor in mobile mode.

Even if you ignore ALL of the hardware shortcomings, you're still left with a device that has 3 good games, 2 of which are available on the previous Nintendo console and are also being emulated on PC.

Why the fuck would you want to buy a Switch?

It can do anything Zelda can do, but better. You can even dig underground and fight ancient omnicidal demons from the 5th dimension. You can use an advanced physics engine to do anything, from mutations to portals to summoning, everything your heart could ever ask for.

Can Link dig underground and rip his arm off before proceeding to use said arm to beat up tzeentch and cthtulu in a three way cage match surrounded by lava?

I was thinking I would pick up either a Switch or an OLED Vita to play vidya on the go (my job is third shift and requires waiting for something to go wrong).

After doing research into the available games, and I just don't see how the Switch capitalizes on its portable potential at all. There's no Salt and Sanctuary, no Hyper Light Drifter, no Don't Starve, no Darkest Dungeon, no Slain: Back From Hell. There's not even a Virtual Console, to play older games on the go (Vita has PS Classics).

Seriously, how can anyone be psyched about the Switch, when, for the same price, you can pick up a Vita, a 64GB memory card, AND a few games, especially when you consider that Sony has been doing the best out of consoles regarding sales (and Nintendo has been the worst)?

What's the point? I'm genuinely confused.

Also, before someone accuses me of being biased, I own a Wii U, and didn't regret the purchase (XCX justifies the purchase by itself, in my opinion).

The vita has more games, better looking games and you can get a Vita, a 64GB memory card, and several games for the same price as a Switch by itself.
Looking at the store, it doesn't seem all that dead to me. They even have digital preorders for games that will go to the Vita and the PS4. One that comes to my head (but doesn't interest me) is Undertale, which is coming out around the middle of August.

>The hardware is under powered vs current generation hardware, to say nothing of future consoles. The hardware hamstrings the hardware and prevents meaningful third party development.
it's obviously never going to play something like the AAA games sony or ms are pushing, but nintendo usually goes with distinctive art styles that don't need the greatest hardware. i've only ever had zelda lag in one or two locations, i've never experienced a crash, but i think the game looks geniunely good in it's own nintendo way.
>The hardware is poorly designed (you can't charge and have it on stand, dock scratches screen, controllers can be put on incorrectly and then are not removable, heat can warp console, etc).

i've never charged it on the go, as i mainly play it around my house. alll the other ones are things only retarded people would do.

>All of the peripherals are overpriced vs any of the competition which rapidly inflates the cost of the console.
What are you talking about here? charging dock? I bought that and a pair of joycons for 4 player multiplayer, it was $100 compared to probably ~$180 for 4 player multiplayer on a ps4 or xbox one.

>The online service of the system is laughable. Terrible implementation of multiplayer and voice chat that requires a bunch of superfluous dongles and wires, requires a cellphone app, etc. Its the worst part of a system that makes many trade-offs to be portable. The online service doesn't even come close to the level of PSN or XBL and a lot of standard features still aren't implemented.

i can't imagine anyone actually using voicechat for its intended purpose at this point, its maddening with randoms on it. bad answer, but i personally have never had anything close to a good experience with some random person over voicechat in any game. i usually play splatoon over discord with friends.

>The system is lacking in both home and mobile features. You can't watch videos or use Netflix like other consoles, even the Vita. You can't browse the web, listen to music, or use email/messaging like other portable devices (tablets, phones). The battery life is poor in mobile mode.

not a big issue for me. it's a videogame system first and foremost and i appreciate it for that. it's not trying to be a phone or tablet.

>Even if you ignore ALL of the hardware shortcomings, you're still left with a device that has 3 good games, 2 of which are available on the previous Nintendo console and are also being emulated on PC.

the games are fun, and i'm impressed with the lineup so far which i know is a statement that a lot of people disagree with it. i like that the games work properly, and i like that i'm able to go take a shit and keep playing in zelda or have a smoke outside playing mario kart. i'm excited for odyssey, metroid, and since the console is so recently released, probably a lot more that hasn't been announced yet. i enjoy playing on the couch or in bed, so it'll probably be my go-to for any new indies that come out.

The bottom line is that you cannot say that Zelda, or Bayonetta, or Wonderful 101 are good games, if you claim that you don't like the WiiU, because clearly those games weren't good enough to entice a purchase out of you.
>>
>>385386095
I thought hardware didn't matter? After all, aren't the games important enough to justify purchasing hardware as long as it has fun on it?

According to your argument, hardware matters now, so why would people want a system that isn't even as powerful as the competition? And what if these people don't value portability, or have a phone that already plays games for portable sake?

Being able to play a console game on something other than a TV is a crappy gimmick according to you. Yet the Switch is offering just that. Hmmmm.

Except if you rule out the launch month since everyone wants to buy whatever new toy comes out, it only outsold it one month
>It's only lost 2 months by a small amount due to supply issues.
>a small amount
Except in June the PS4 almost sold the double amount of Switches sold that month, also if you say the Switch is having supply issues then there's no way it can outsold a system that has stock for years, unless its a shitty excuse you use to defend the fact its getting beaten by a console that has been out for years but nah that's not possible
>Sounds like you are if you're actually defending western garbage.
Bro you're acting like if Japan didnt make its own share of awful games as well
>Hate to break it to you but a game being announced does not mean it has only just started development.
Yet some games get announced for the Switch as well other systems when they are revealed, also the first footage of DBZ was the game being at 20% made, you're telling me that early in development they couldnt made it for the Swich as well?

Switch has outsold the PS4 by 3 months, nothing is being ruled out.

Supply constraint literally stated by Nintendo themselves.
>also if you say the Switch is having supply issues then there's no way it can outsold a system that has stock for years
And that's the hilarious thing. The PS4 is struggling against a system that is struggling with supply kek

Japan makes some awful games, but the west makes nothing but awful games.

Because if you count the launch month for a new game system then that's pretty dumb, Steamboxes sold a lot on its launch month and then an absolute silence happened, if the system was successful it would been constantly selling well month after month

Anon, friend, you can't make the argument you're trying to make about sales without having up to date numbers. That's silly, man. What if you're completely wrong? You'ld have no way of knowing. People would think you were foolish. I don't want that for you.

Also, that's a weekly hardware chart, buddy. That's such a small slice of the pie. At least go for a monthly chart. Though, if that's the most current numbers you can find, giving that we're so close to August it might be better just to bite your tongue until we get the more recent ones, friend.

I didn't play it before the patch but I've been getting at least one significant framerate drop every time I've played so far. I just got done playing and I had on big one and several briefer ones. It's starting to worry me, since everyone on here says their game is smooth now, that maybe I got a bugged copy or there's something wrong with my switch.

I would buy one in a heartbeat for $200... Rented* a wii u from gamestop to play BOTW a couple weeks ago...

Honestly, not sure if I'd rather just softmod a fucking wii u for free entertainment the next 3 years till the new fucking SWITCH ++ model comes out with MAYBE a better library

Im pretty sure i did

Well it doesnt matter, people can see the posts and can testify you have been backpedaling for like more than an hour

Yet still selling after all these years, can a japanese game do the same?
>No.
So the 3rd party support the Switch gets from them doesnt count then, well i guess the Switch has no third party anymore
Last (You) you're getting btw, i better stop before i give you a worse brain damage than you already have

My wii softmod lasted like 6 years till the console bricked. Plus the WII U has backwards comparability. . . never had any isos for the wii though; seems easier with this model.

thanks for the

you

I mean its kinda cool that the Switch is that durable.
but that second video had like the most shameless edit ever.
Its so cringey that they thought they could get away with their second rate acting
