I already have a hacked vita, hacked 3ds, hacked wii and ps1, 2, 3.

I have way too many games to play on my ps3 before buying a ps4 to play bloodborne, crash and persona 5.
>>
>>388749189
it's too expensive at the minute. I literally cannot justify getting one plus everything I'd like to get with it at the minute. It's just not feasible. I could get a 2nd PS4 way cheaper, and it has a backlog of games i want to play It's actually just bloodborne.
Maybe in a year's time, if it got a price cut i would get one. It bother's me because, for me, mario and zelda will always be the top vidya franchises and i can't wait to play them, but as of now, the price barrier is way too steep

You just get a much better deal by waiting.
I can understand getting a console early when it has a game you really want to play (eg. Zelda/MK8 if you don't own a WiiU)

>>388749189

Can't bring myself to purchase the console for 1 game (Zelda) and the future expected game releases don't look that interesting.

>>388749189
The only reason I'd buy one is if I moved with a roomate who liked videogames.
That's my favorite thing about the switch, the built-in 2 player mode, too bad i don't really play with otherpeople.

Fucking stupid that they haven't released a new super mario though.

multiplayer's tickrate is 16 ticks per second. the first one was 22 (iirc) either way the first one had higher tickrate. this low of a tickrate causes players to trade with eachother more frequently because things are less accurate. (i.e. if they miss a shot but their gun has a higher rate of fire than your gun their bullets can count as 2 as it runs through the server as the game tries and make up for the less precise tickrate even if you should barely survive you'll kill eachother instead)

They are lying to themselves. I got my gaming PC in 2011 for $1500 including things I didn't actually need like a 1TB HDD which was big at the time, a new case and monitor that I didn't need and a sound card which is useless for games. The "core" PC needed for playing games was under 900$ It still plays new games on medium/low and I could easily buy a cheap graphics card and bump them up. I never pay more then $20 for games and I don't have to pay for online gaming or pay $80 for extra controllers. I have it hooked up to a 40" TV so it is also maximum comfy.

oh god the battery life would be so shit, also the games would look like complete shit on a screen that size. For reference the average smartphone these days has a bigger screen than this, also because of the change in height it would be even harder to play with those controls, also it wouldn't be sub 200$ and it's most likely never going to be sub 200$ until the next system comes out.

Because I have no use for a glorified, simplified tablet. Also, absolutely ZERO of the exclusive games have interested me. Maybe in two years it'll be worth a look, but until then you can keep your shitch.

I'm ignoring the actual first one because it's factual and isn't a detraction.
1. The screen isn't glass.
2.You have fat hands it isn't Nintendo's fault but they even have a controller for you, Pro Controller.
3.It doesn't run hot, you've never held one.
4.Battery life is kinda bad but if I'm carrying it undocked then I won't likely play for more than a few minutes at a time, but you don't go anywhere so you can't relate.
5. "Has ports and mulitplatforms that run worse than they do on superior hardware" are you retarded, you can say the same for any console.
6. Thats subjective.
7.It's 5 dollars you poorfag.
8.Wii, Wii U and 3DS emulation is not possible on the Switch yet, no code for that has been found, if you think opposite source it.
9.This is retarded and wrong, being docked wouldn't improve the wifi card so I'm not sure how you would justify this, you can't even play with the joy cons while its docked so are you just retarded?
10."No team speak allowed whatsoever" proceeds to entail how team speak is allowed, yea the app is shit but you can also use discord as an alt.
11. This is how it is for consoles.
12. Wait, no console had any of those things in the first months after launch, and the only reason you want to mod, hack and install custom firmware is because you're poor and don't want to have to buy games.
