No games, amiibos, paid online, underpowered console, lacking future support, overpriced, and literally no one I know wants or talks of it.

I only see this thing mentioned here, otherwise, nothing. It's been in stock in my area all summer and scalpers/owners have been selling them off at lower than retail.

I don't need a paperweight or to pretend I like shit games like ARMs to justify my purchase. I'd rather buy a PS4 Pro to play Yakuza 6 at better FRs than buy a Switch with zero interesting games.

Doesn't matter how profitable it is if there are no games. There are only a handful of exclusives, and none of them are even worth bothering with if you already own a Wii-U. All the Switch has is a bunch of ports of 5 year old indie games and an overpriced back catalog of older Nintendo games.

The Switch is going to be completely irrelevant in a year's time and will gather dust just like the Wii-U.

>>389670632
The no games meme is worn out lol Every weeb game release we see selling out on Switch. Dragonball just sold out. ARMS sold 2 million. Splatoon 2 sold hardware itself. Most SALES of Sonic Mania were on Switch, since PCfags pride themselves in being thieves. Mario is coming next month. Xenoblade 2 looks amazing. About four of the indies that were just shown look great. MK8 sold 2.5 million. Switch has the most stable versions of Skyrim and Double Dragon 4, and will have the final version of Yuka Laylee (Thanks for beta testing Sony and PCfags).

So between the Switch, which has the gimmick of playing games, and the PS4 whose gimmick is watching Netflix.. I think the Switch is the better game hardware.

It doesn't really interest me.

The only games that I would actually buy are already available elsewhere. Even so, there really isn't an advantage to buy it on Switch.

RE4 on Wii had pointer controls, making it stand out among the countless other versions, even now. Wii U versions of games once again stood out by utilizing the GamePad in various ways. But the Switch? Outside of taking the thing with you, it doesn't offer anything new or unique. Besides, the short battery & size makes it feel more like a hindrance than features.
The Joy-Cons (and whatever else the future holds) have potential to create unique gameplay scenarios. But from what it seems, many games will just utilize it as a small, shitty controller. It's convenient though, I'll admit.

I am going to miss out on some great games, I'm sure. But for me, I love learning new and different ways to play something. Shinier, smoother graphics only do so much for me.

Who knows though? I have a feeling Nintendo will experiment with VR and AR on the Switch at some point. And if that happens, the system will definitely have my interest.

Dunno if anything worked "just fine" for the 3DS considering it's their worst selling handheld ever. Seems like the general public is losing interest in handhelds now that phones are nearly as good, especially for the time waster you'd play "on the go". And when you get home you want to play on a high quality system like a console or PC

The wii u sold like shit so for the vast majority of people stuff like Mario Kart 8 will be new. Plus with Nintendo consolidating their handheld and console teams into 1 they'll be able to pump out games on a more consistent basis.

>The Switch is going to be completely irrelevant in a year's time and will gather dust just like the Wii-U.

Why would anyone get a Switch? There's nothing on it except for an overrated Zelda, a straight-up kiddie shooter, and a kiddie fighter.

I ordered one today. Gonna try zelda and mario + retards on it. then get mario odyssey in some weeks, and probably try to sell it in november. I really don't know how fun splatoon is, it seems a bit too hectic and adhd, how long do the matches last?

Their worst selling handheld ever still managed to move over 60 million units and counting.

Because it doesn't have any games that interest me.

I did on Wednesday since I have off Thursday and Friday. I have yet to play Splat2 but I did pick up a copy. Kingdom battle and ARMS have kept me occupied, I've had a lot of fun with both. Kingdom battle is straight up better than XCOM2 for a single play, I doubt there's any replay value but I'm enjoying what I've played thus far.

I played ARMs for like 8 hours straight and made my right shoulder sore as fuck from all the flailing around. ARMS has been pretty good thus far, especially after I unlocked online ranked play. Not sure how deep the game is but I really like that attacking can be a valid means of defense. Even so, it seems like defensive play and jump spamming are super safe.
