Would u quit playing Pokemon if it was on the switch

underage detected

>>31404956
no.

I'm a fan of Pokemon and buy every new game.

So if the new Pokemon game is on the Switch, I'm gonna buy the Switch

>>31404956
No, why would you?

No. I assume at least. Switch just seems like another system at this point. Are people already deciding the switch is unplayable or something?

>>31404969
People just don't like change

>>31404969
it's hip to hate anything that's new

>>31404956
Yes, get a fucking job

>>31404956
Not really.

I like the idea of HD Pokemon games and I'd gladly buy two consoles because I love my brother in the sense that I respect he enjoys games but is more the person to buy consoles for than games (which he can handle)

>>31404981
meant no, shit, read op wrong

I expect I'll probably have the Switch by the then so there's no issue. I bought a 3DS for B2W2 so I could have the superior versions of the genie trio back when there wasn't much reason to get one when you already owned a DS, I'll be fine getting a Switch when they already have games I'm interested in coming out this year.

>>31404956
Of course not. Why would I?

>>31404981
399 cad with tax 440 plus the Pokemon game 80 dollars 520 dollars. I have a job that's expanse as shit

No but I'm sure as heck playing the waiting game again until this thing is cheap or they make a switch without the dock included.

Nigga, I preordered mine for $270 after associate discount. Also, the fuck is with the economy of canada for your money to be worth so little?

No, but I'll wait until the price drops to buy it.

If it means I'll have to skip gen 8, so be it. I'm not the kind who wastes money on toys.

Most likely once Pokemon game is announced or it's hacked I'll pick one up. Whatever happens first. I just hope there's no paid online for Pokemon games. I could care less about any other game on it though.

>>31404956
Didn't Reginald pretty much confirm 3ds would get one more gen?

My the time gen 9 rolls around i'll probably be sick of pokemon to be honest

>>31405118

Who?

>>31405100
I'm kind of with you on this. No other game much appealed to me aside from Zelda. I'm hoping there is a new Pokemon game for the Switch so I can legitimize spending all that money and staying up all night to pre order the damn thing.

no. the main games are on handhelds anyway.
plus, the switch will be emulated in the future.

"It is inconceivable that Nintendo is going to cease to produce the Wii once the Wii U hits the market," Iwata said in an interview with Forbes following the company's Tuesday news conference at the E3 video game convention in Los Angeles.

>>31405192
Nothing wrong with this as long as GF is smart enough to optimize their models.

>>31405216
And it blew on their faces, like everything they do.

>>31404956
I don't understand the question. What does one have to do with the other? If they end up there exclusively, maybe, unless I decide there's things on the switch worth my time enough to play, but if it's just spin offs or it's on both I won't care.

>>31404964
>buying a console for one game/franchise

disgusting. I'd buy the Switch because it has several good franchises, though, like Pokémon, SMT, Zelda and maybe Fire Emblem.

If S/M would've been a WiiU exclusive I would've skipped this generation though, unless the console became super cheap (that would've been my backup for playing the new Zelda if it'd been a WiiU exclusive). It's kind of weird that Nintendo went an entire console generation without a mainline Mario or Zelda game though.

>>31405150
if both left and right sucked at economy. i would probably choose left always. right is stuck in the 50s. atleast were not stuck with donald trump lol

>>31405236
Super Mario 3D World isn't a mainline Mario game?

>>31404956
no

but I'd probably stop using online and just showdown/inject

>>31405202
>>31405216
Why would they say something like this?

I mean, sure, there'll be some overlap. There's still PS3 games coming out, after all, like Persona 5. But it's not like the 3DS (or PS3) will be around for five more years.

>>31405027
All not having a dock means is you can't play it in a tv. That probably won't affect price as much as you think it would.

>>31405269
just the dock is $90

>>31404956
I'm not buying one unless they stop making mainline games on the 3DS. If so, then yes I would buy a switch just to satiate my pokemon autism.

>>31405259
smt, yoshi wooly world, mario sports etc are 3ds games coming this year. there gonna use 3ds to target kids still. the switch has no kids games at launch and 299 price tag. older people play zelda. may/june we should know where the next pokemon games are

I'd probably skip that game but i'm starting to get over pokemon lately.
Didn't even finish the story mode in sun and moon.

The only good thing about the Switch is that I'd finally be able to Stream and record my competitive matches.

Outside of that, I see no benefits. Graphics are a low priority, the best games (imo) are all using sprites.

The official website says that they will make both a 3DS and a 'HD'(switch) version.

>>31405202
That doesn't necessarily mean Gen 8 will be on the 3DS, I think the most likely scenario is that Gen 7 will end on 3DS instead of awkwardly transitioning to Switch mid way, but I'm pretty sure the next gen will be on another console

And honestly, it's for the best, it's 2016 and we're playing pokémon on a 240p display. My fucking cheap ass smartphone has better resolution

Most people don't care about this

>>31404956
I'd probably start playing it.

>>31405407
Most people do not expect cutting-edge graphics from anything Nintendo, but they expect them to at least try to keep up with the times.

Gen 7 should end on 3DS, but it would be a mistake to keep Gen 8 on such a old, weak hardware. Not that I'm particularly happy about such scenario because "paid online" makes me want to skip the Switch on principle, but in order for Pokémon to progress they have to move away from the 3DS

>>31405362
> it's 2016 and we're playing pokémon on a 240p display
Well I'm also playing games like Monster Hunter or Kingdom Hearts on a 240p display and I'm fine with it.
At least I can play when I'm not home.

> inb4 with the Switch too
Not with that autonomy.

>>31405431
>Monster Hunter
Actually a lot of people complain about MH, especially because the online lags to shit with 4 players, or god help us, multi-monster quests.

Current MH doesn't look much different from the PSP version and I think at least MH is the kind of game that really could use more detail and a bigger screen in general. I'd be totally down on MH on the Switch because hunting shit on my sofa sounds super comfy

>>31405444
> Actually a lot of people complain about MH, especially because the online lags to shit with 4 players, or god help us, multi-monster quests.
Never seen any lag, and I have an old 3DS. Maybe it's also their internet connexion.

And while I agree that high graphics could be good for MH, I'm fine with what I have now. And as one of the best-seller franchises in Japan, Capcom will probably stay on the console with the best market share.

>>31404956

What in the actual fuck...
We don't even know what a game on it would look like so why would anyone have an answer to this?

>>31405255
So is NSMBU.
In other news you're replying to a shitposter

>>31404956
I wouldn't "quit" Pokémon but I sure as fuck am not getting a Switch, full stop.
If Gen 8 is on it, I'll just emulate it

>>31405444
>especially because the online lags to shit with 4 players, or god help us, multi-monster quests.
You might want to check your connection. If there's visible lag in monhun it's a certainty that it's on your end.

>>31405511
I don't really think Switch will be emulatable so soon

First they'll need to crack the Switch, then spend months developing an emulator, then more months developing a version that doesn't crash every 5 seconds, and only them it's emulatable, and even then you'll probably require a pretty good pc to run it, unless you want to play Gen 8 at 5 fps

>>31405513
I tried MH online on several internet connections, ranging from 3.25 Mbps to 80 Mbps. There's always some sort of lag when monsters and players are together, and /mhg/ complains about that all the time. It's not just internet issues, the 3DS simply lacks the power to render everything when there's too much shit going on

>>31405497
I don't really consider the NSMB series 'mainline' games but more like a retro spinoff, but I admit I forgot about 3D World.

>>31405533
>the 3DS simply lacks the power to render everything when there's too much shit going on
Which is why many players on both /v/ and /mhg/ don't experience any lag unless they're with a problematic player like a Brazilian or something right?

>>31405518
To be fair the switch is probably gonna be easier to make an emulator for than the 3ds. It has a more common architecture, though it'll of course require lots of power, so it's probably be easier to dedicate performances to the actual games, as opposed having the whole thing lag to process simple graphics like Citra does.

That's like saying Street Fighter 2 is a spin off while MvC is the main game.

No, unless this changes.

>>31405560
Mario has evolved into a 3D franchise by now, though. It's not like Mario 64 was a spinoff.

>>31405533
The last time I saw someone complain about lag on /mhg/ was back when you could go online with Tri.

>>31405574
That doesn't change the mainline status of NSMB. They are literally both mainline games.

>>31405574
>Mario has evolved into a 3D franchise by now, though.
Main Mario games are both 2D and 3D leaning more towards 2D.

>>31405562

We're gonna lose some Pokemon fans but we're gonna gain some new fans that want to play console hd pokemon

>>31404964
This really. Only reason I bought a DS was DP, and only reason I bought a 3DS was XY.

I was planning to get a Switch day 1 but every store in my country is sold out on preorders. Looks like I'm fucked.

Also, while I'd buy it anyways, some Pokemon fans will be put off by price. In particular, this may hurt those people who could only play the 3DS games because they had a cheap 2DS.

>>31405630
Exchange rates tend to do that.

>>31404956
I will quit Pokemon the day I die.

>>31405646
What we are gonna lose is people to trade/battle. People probably will get a switch, but how many will pay online?

>>31405663
You do realise it's because we don't have a set price right?
Not to mention when it comes to subscription services they usually go on a set number like say, 5 dollars/pounds/euros etc. for all regions.

It's not a likewise easy answer. If i somehow got my hands on switch, then i'd continue, but as of now i don't see myself buying it.

>>31404956
>One of Pokemon's main appeals are the online features: battling and trading
>Now you have to pay for that shit
This is probably gonna throw some people off. Though of course once Nintendo kills the WiiU's and the 3DS' online most likely more people are going to buy the console. Not sure how many would play Pokemon on it though

Personally I want a Switch, but not because of Pokemon. If anything if a game of the franchise were to come out on thr console I'd wait for the reviews to make sure it's not another XY

>>31404956
No, maybe this is a chance for better and even bigger pokémon games.

Yes.
I mean, I quit playing Pokémon for like 4 years due to the 3DS. Only got back into it after buying the thing second hand for €100 + 4x €15-20 for the X,Y and ORAS. 3DS just wasn't worth the initial cost.

I'm also definitely not paying €300 for a, rather shitty, home-console. And I'm sure as hell not paying €50 a year for Nintendo's shitty online. I'm not paying PS+ (and I use my PS4 more than my 3DS) so why the hell would I for Nin, tying your sales to your console rather than your account, Tendo or Nin, here's your rented SNES game that we will lock you out of after the month's over even though our competitors offer modern games which you can keep for the entire duration of your subscription, Tendo.

>>31406081
>offer modern games
Anon.
They haven't done this since the initial launch. People don't even bother with the games they put out anymore.

>>31406107

Oh is that so? I remember getting a year of PS+ back when it was €30 in like 2013 (for XMas) and I got X-COM and Bioshock Infinite out of the ordeal. That was pretty decent.
Still, an indie title or two is still miles better than just renting a fucking SNES game. Why the fuck couldn't it at least be GameCube or newer, Nintendo?

>>31404956

I'll get a switch eventually. It's just a matter of when. I can't leave this earth without playing mario odyssey, but hopefully I don't have to pay 360 dollars for that one game

>>31404969

There is a very disappointing release list for the switch atm. If you have a wii u, or don't care for zelda, the launch lineup is embarrassingly bad. Even by christmas, the only worthwhile games they have announced are mario odyssey and splatoon 2. Add to the fact that there is still barely any good third party support even though nintendo promises us there will be, and they are introducing paid online, so you'll have to get a yearly subscription for battlespot/wondertrade/etc. and the switch is seeming like an awful system

>>31405543
The "New" series and Mario Maker both count as main series games. So does Mario Run, funnily enough.

>>31404956
Sadly, yes. I don't liked XY, don't liked ORAS and SM and probably not even next games, therefore i can't buy a console for games I will not like.
However i will continue on showdown or hack roms.

I don't understand where this "The launch window is bad" thing is coming from. The launch window looks pretty good compared to other launch windows. The first game that anybody really gave a fuck about on the PS4 was Bloodborne (hence the common "Bloodborne machine" insult that was prevalent for quite some time), and that came out 16 months after the PS4 did. The PS4 also launched with 20 games, while the Wii U launched with 29 games, so by that logic, the Wii U should have outsold the PS4.

It's not the number of games the device has in its launch window, it's what those games are. Nobody gave a shit about full-priced vanilla Mass Effect 3 on the Wii U when other platforms got the discounted Mass Effect Trilogy with all DLC included weeks earlier. Nobody cared about Bamham City or Nintendo Land or NSMBU. Then there was that seven month dry spell that was finally broken by New Super Luigi U, Game & Wario, and soon after, Pikmin 3. But the first "must have" game on the Wii U was Super Mario 3D World announced at E3 2013 and set to be released that holiday season, and by then, it was too late.

If we're going by the big name titles in the launch window, we have
>The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Launch
>Splatoon 2 - Summer
>Skyrim - Fall
>Super Mario Odyssey - Holiday
Breath of the Wild and Odyssey are the killer apps on this. You might argue that Skyrim's age means nobody will buy it, but people have talked more about Skyrim than any other third-party game on a Nintendo device. The idea of having portable Skyrim is intriguing to people. I don't think Arms and 1-2-Switch are currently seen as big games at the moment, so we'll see with them.

As much as I like SMT, Xenoblade, No More Heroes, and Dragon Quest, I know that non-Nintendo Japanese games are niche titles now.

But this is very acceptable as a launch window for the average consumer. The actual concern consumers should be having is the price of the Switch, games, accessories, and online.

>>31406592

>b-b-but sony!

Nobody says Ps4 had a good launch either. But at least 3rd party support was pretty much guaranteed, while nintendo always promises 3rd party support but we just get minigame collections.

Nintendo also let the wii u flounder with nothing for 2 years so that they could have an amazing library for the switch. The only reason to buy switch at launch was breath of the wild, but that's also on wii u

>>31406592

I fucking hate that people consider 9 months a "launch window"

People used to consider launch the games available on day 1. If games aren't coming out until fall or winter, maybe they shouldn't have released the switch until fall or winter

>>31405346
Stupid normie

>>31404956
Probably will buy the switch, so far the new Zelda game looks excellent. Honestly strongly depends on the lineup of the switch, but it's looking good so far.

>>31406644
>but that's also on wii u
And do you think Nintendo is going to promote the Wii U version over the Switch version? Do you think people who didn't own a Wii U are going to buy one NOW for Breath of the Wild? Or do you think they're going to see the better versions of BotW and Mario Kart 8 on the hot new console that can play them on the TV as well as on the go?

The average consumer (ie. non-core players of video games) still thinks that the Wii U is an accessory to the Wii. People I know who don't play video games have asked me what I thought of the Switch. If anyone ever asked me about the Wii U, I would usually have to explain to them that it's a new console.

The biggest reason that the PS4 sold so well was its 10/10 marketing, and the fact that Microsoft shot the Xbox One in the foot over and over again during its launch. Sony made perfect use of that fact by going "Hey, we're not those guys!" and "#4theplayers". That Perfect Day commercial in late 2013 was perfect. Nintendo seemed to forget to market their console after its launch, and it went 7 straight months without any effort put into marketing when it really needed it.

The fact of the matter is that there's never a singular reason a console does good or bad. It's a combination of factors, and there were MANY miscalculations with the Wii U, while there were MANY spot-on decisions for the PS4, enough that it sold great through dry seasons, confusing even Shuhei Yoshida. The Switch is probably more on the positive side right now, with the biggest detractors being how much the consumer is being charged for a full experience. The $300 launch price is acceptable ($250 would have been optimal), but 1-2-Switch not being a pack-in is a misstep. According to ProJared who spoke to Reggie, the decision for paid online was at the behest of third-parties so that they could feel assured that they would be making a profit with their games. While I hate the idea of paid online, if it helps...

>>31406781
>And do you think Nintendo is going to promote the Wii U version over the Switch version? Do you think people who didn't own a Wii U are going to buy one NOW for Breath of the Wild?

I don't think many people will buy a wii u if they don't have one at this point, but there is a base of zelda/nintendo fans that basically buy consoles for zelda/mario and those games alone. The nintendo loyal already have a wii u, so it's questionable as to whether they will wait on a switch because they don't need one until christams for mario odyssey. If even the nintendo loyal hold off on the switch, and all these reports of the switch selling horribly for 9 months come out, it's probably going to go the way of the wii u

>>31404956
No, I've been on /vp/ for years, I literally bought the 3DS or any other console day one because "one day it will have pokémon".
On top of that I buy any main game releases, I'm a sheep.

>>31404956

>>31405424

>>31404956
i don't see why would i

>>31406781
...if it helps bring in third-parties, then I can accept it. Also if Nintendo's online experience actually improves dramatically thanks to it and becomes on par with current consoles.

Right now, the Switch is in a good position. The people complaining are MOSTLY core players who are looking more for a reason not to buy it than a reason to buy it. Hence the comparisons of games released during a console's launch year to consoles that have been out for years. It's unlikely that non-core players watched this Thursday night livestream from Japan primarily showing Japanese games to Japanese businessmen, and they probably only remember the initial reveal (which quickly surpassed the lifetime views of the Wii U's reveal). If they got anything from this presentation, it's probably secondary information related to the launch, price, and big games. I doubt any of them heard about Patrick Söderlund saying his son's middle name is Luigi or that the new SMT is running on UE4 or what Fire Emblem Warriors even is.

>>31406814
I think that the Switch will do fairly well at launch, as most consoles do. Rumor has it that Nintendo is doing their artificial scarcity thing again. If it works out well, people will be clamoring for a Switch like the NES Classic in the coming months, even if sales suffer a bit. But the summer is when they can really hit their stride if they release Splatoon 2 early that season. The worst case scenario I can envision is Nintendo pulling a 3DS and doing a $50 price drop a few months into its release, which might be the reason they priced it at $300 USD.

>>31406858
Oh right, and I forgot to mention that even if the Switch fails as a AAA western multiplat device, it can fall back on Japanese support like with the 3DS and thrive in that environment. All future Nintendo software is also going to be on this one device as well. But I do think that there are some big announcements planned for this E3 that'll keep the blood pumping and push people into wanting the console. For example, we're likely to see the Dark Souls Trilogy, and maybe even some VR stuff in the future (though I think that it'll probably be cheaper VR instead of big budget headsets).

The March release date and January press conference were probably chosen so as not to overlap with other major console announcements, specifically coming after the PS4 Pro and before the Scorpio. It's a blank season in gaming, which is why it's getting so much online attention now. There are still numerous Switch threads on /v/, and even if they're not all positive (more of a split actually), it does show that it's still on many people's minds, and you couldn't say that for the Wii U.

But like Iwata once said, he thinks it's Pokémon that helps sell Nintendo's handhelds. If we see Pokémon Stars in the coming months (most likely in May or at E3), the Switch will have established itself as a major device.

>people complain about paid online
>when smogon exists

I guess you injectors just going to pay to play this time.

>>31406938
What does smogon have anything to do with this? What people use showdown.

I wouldn't buy it at launch because of the cost, the reason I play handhelds is for the low price, but a few years down the line when it's dropped a little I might pick it up, if I think it looks interesting

I kind of hope it does go that was so I can have a real look at the game before I buy it, I've become a bit of a sheep for pokemon recently, preordering the games and avoiding information in the build up, so it'd be nice to have enough information available to really decide if I want to buy a new game

Yes, I would. The only reason I got back into Pokemon was because the 3ds and games are a lot cheaper. Plus the switch games look like garbage except for Breath of the Wild.

>>31404956
Considering that I don't care about the Multiplayer, no. In any case, I love ROM Hacks as much as the official games (at least until Gen IV, didn't tried VI) so..

>>31405179
>50% of the Switch is a home console, the other 50% is a handheld.
People still don't get it.. sigh.

>>31405444
>MH is the kind of game that really could use more detail and a bigger screen in general.
I can confirm. Play freedom unite on an emulator and it's gorgeous. The game scales up well on its own

>>31405202
Just like the Gamecube and GBA right?

>>31405037
Since I expected the price to be around €250,-, I would definitely buy it at release if I were able to get such a discount.
Does anybody know about any pre-order discounts in the Netherlands?

>My husband is getting the Switch anyway
>I'm still going to be playing on my 3ds while he's playing on the switch

Probably. I was willing to pay ~$90 to get a used 2DS and play Gen 7, but I really don't think I could justify over $300 for just one game. This is the problem with not liking very many vidya.

>>31404956

I dunno family. I'd totally nut if I saw a CG Candice in a high res version of X/Y or Sun/Moon's engine

No, but I hope Pokemon never goes back to single screen.

> Nothing wrong with this as long as GF is smart enough to create models with a smaller amount of polygons so the weak 3DS don't suffer because of them.
Ftfy.

>>31405407
They really should though. 240p in times of 1440p/Road-to-4k is disgusting.

>>31405431
>At least I can play when I'm not home.
And you couldn't play when you're not home on a Console with a higher quality overall because...?

The problem is not the size of the screen but the resolution at which the console runs.
If we were to talk about sizes, anything higher than 4" would pretty much ruin the experience when talking about Handhelds/Portable Consoles, imho.

>>31405518
Look at "Cemu".

>>31405740
Because Nintendo already announced a new handheld console *EvenThoughThat'dBeTheSwitch* that will take on the 3DS' Spot, amirite?
And because supporting an old and weak ass handheld that doesn't even run at 720p is a good idea when we are in fucking 2017, amirite?

>>31405407
Eh...I'm pretty sure even normies notice how jaggedy the models in the 3DS games are, especially since they even have the nicer ones on Go to compare them to.

That and the fact that the 3DS games dip into single-digit FPS is noticeable to everyone.

>>31404956

I'm already buying a Switch so that's an invalid question

What the fuck are you doing?

>>/v/ is that way if you want to shitpost

>>31404956
Its going to the Switch, so either deal with it or not. People buy the new handhelds constantly for Pokemon, Switch is no different.

>>31406350

That's invalid

Everybody who isn't a PC fag is used to pain online

Also the Xbone has it worse and it still did well

The massive negativity on Switch is stupid

>>31406592

People also seem to forget that E3 exists to announce even more games and Nintendo themselves said they still have more games to announce before launch

No it's not. It has potential but it is currently terrible with no end on the horizon. Take your tongue outta nintendos anal cavity for 5 seconds and look from a neutral perspective and you'll agree.

>>31404956
The Switch will be the price of a N3DS XL when the next Pokémon game comes out.
Well, a second handed Switch, at least.

>>31405118
No. the 3ds cant handle any more games. Its limiting gamefreak from what they want to do. Reggie just said they will still supprot it for a short while. Pikmin will probably be its last game

>>31407693
>neutral perspective
Which you obviously do not have.

>>31404956
Depends. Will it suck? When will the Switch get hacked so I can get a used one and pirate everything without giving Neo-Nintendo a cent? Would it be better if I just get a Vita, hack that, and enjoy all those PSP games I missed out on? I'm still pissed off because of Prism. Nintendo almost ruined my Christmas.

Yes, if I have to pay to go online to battle and trade. This is most likely my last gen anyway after playing RO cbt.

I'm a poorfag that only gets somewhere in the $800 checks. $300 is a lot for me because bills and what can happen during the time I'm waiting for the next check.

I want Mario Kart 8 DX, Zelda: BOTW, Skyrim, Mario Odyssey and Pokemon. If there is a Pokemon on the system that is, because it hasn't been confirmed. Do these 4-5 games warrant me paying $300 then $240/$300 more for the 4-5 games? Then an extra $60 dollars just to play online after the free trial has ended?

>>31407693
>It has potential but it is currently terrible
There have been far worse launches anon. At worse this is an 'eh' on the scale of Unforgivable to Fantastic.

>>31408415
A rule many people tend to follow is the "five game rule".
If a system has five games on it that you want to buy then it's a worthwhile purchase.

At the moment you have 4 with a potential five so I would wait until that game or another would show up. Also a price point hasn't been revealed for the online.

>>31408215

After bills and groceries just put away as much money as you can into savings. You might not get it on day 1 but you've got a month and a half to save up. It's not hard.

>>31409601
Only reason I was able to preorder a switch the day after the presentation was because I bought groceries a week before I got paid and I had extra money already set aside

Guys, why is it called the "Switch"? I looked at some pictures of it, and could only find buttons, no switches anywhere.

>>31411239
Because it was designed by and for trannies. That's why they had the one do the demo.

good thing there wont be a mainline pokemon game for the switch

Gamefreak works on "pokemon Sumo" (its kinda like Pokken) so people stop calling Sun and Moon "SuMo"

>>31404956
Maybe

No...but I'm mainly worried about what happens when this thing fails. 3rd party nintendo? Franchises die? GF takes pokemon to mobile.

>>31406044
Online will ALL be paid. It's not a fee per game, it's a subscription like PSN+ or XBL. No subscription = no online features.

>>31406919
>maybe even some VR stuff in the future (though I think that it'll probably be cheaper VR instead of big budget headsets).
Now this is interesting. I didn't think of it before, but if the tracking is good enough the Joycons would make good VR controllers. Just add a headset and the Switch could be a great little VR ready device.

>>31405015
It's $299, actually.

>>31404956
No, I'm excited for Super Mario Odyssey, Yooka Laylee, Sonic 2017, and as an avid Fire Emblem fan I'm looking forward to the new Warriors game. Getting it day one with BotW because I want to try it on the Switch.

>>31413809
Pokemon will be a nice bonus if it was on there but I won't be buying it because of that. Also never tried Skyrim so I might buy it on Switch.

THIS THREAD IS FULL OF SHILLS

>>31408367
> spending 1/29th of your yearly income on nintenshit
Maybe invest your neet bux in producing a product people want. That's a bad idea to buy a switch.

Very likely. Pokémon was born and originated on Nintendo's console handheld GameBoy platforms. Making a full blown mainline Pokémon games for home console that of the originals like the handheld versions would pretty much be killing it with a new different out of sync player experience and nothing would go right anyway. It'd be a new system and platform for Pokémon, I bet Pokémon Switch's game/s will be nothing like the handheld mainline games. Just watch, if any Pokémon Switch title/s / game/s hit, it'll/they'll be very likely another Pokémon Stadium spin-off clone.

>>31407650
>>31414135
That wouldn't be a bad thing mainline Pokemon needs to shake up badly. Hopefully console Pokemon can change tbat

No. I'm mainly a Pokemon fan, but I was also gonna get a Switch anyways

>>31404965
>>31404969

I think that people are upset about online being locked behind a paywall with the Switch, which is entirely reasonable, considering that online was always free before.

I'm buying a switch because zelda, splatoon and Mario are all going to be amazing games just like the last iterations of each of those series. Also I can play splatoon on the shitter.. So there's that

>>31404956
No. There is no escape.

>>31406938
Paid online is problematic if you're trying to update your Living Dex like me.

yes not going to buy an entire new console just to play pokemon

>>31404956
No, but I might play it less.
I'll still get it, make no mistake, but a lot of my Poketime is out and about, during breaks in my day. Given this things battery life (And let's be honest, price), I'm not going to bother or risk taking it with me.

>>31405348
My understanding is that there is a separate project for both the switch and the 3ds.
The 3ds project is suspected to be a Nocturne remake, the Switch project is suspected to be SMT 5.

>>31404956
No, but it'd piss me off.
For families with more than one kid, buying multiple copies of the same console seems pretty unreasonable.

>inb4 it's also a handheld
Like parents are gonna care or understand that. It's marketed as a home console, and that's how they're gonna view it.

Expecting a parent to buy two of the same home console is as unrealistic as expecting parents to buy a Wii U when they already have a Wii.

Non-gamers are dumb about this stuff, and it won't bode well for the future of Pokemon.

>>31405407
It's not just /vp/. Lots of people have noticed that S&M look weird, and run poorly.
I'm not a graphicsfag. I'd have been happy if Pokemon looked like Gen 4/5 for the rest of time. But most people are, and even I care if the game chugs.

>>31418735
Yeah, that's why this is the first gen where I've had no interest in VGC. The second I get 4 mons on the same screen, my game slows to a crawl.

I have an O3DS, so it's pretty bad, but it's noticeable even on a N3DS.

I don't know what the fuck GF was thinking with those high-poly models. Keep them for future games, but damn it, optimize it for your current hardware.

>>31404956
no becouse i don't have a switch

>>31418803
Nobody does, Anon.
It's not out yet,

>>31404956
no but i'll probably wait awhile to get the game + the system like i did with the 3DS
not that i remember my reason for doing that in the first place...

>>31404956
No, what kind of a fucking question is that?

I don't know. I've never been an early adopter for any system. The first run has product flaws that get fixed or price issues that get lowered. Likelihood goes up if they have a pared down version tailored to be a handheld and a cost to match.

>>31414135
The switch is a handheld

>>31418974
Are they advertising it as a handheld? Or are they advertising it as a home console?

I'm not saying its going to be bad, but they have missed their chance to control the narrative if they want us to think of it as a handheld that can be played on TV instead of a home console that can come with you.

If they do think its a home console you can bring with you, they have done a poor job convincing us that its worth buying on day one. The roster of launch titles is either not clear or severely lacking.

>>31409601
Actually, I've decided to use some my tax income for it.

>>31411639
I don't think so.

The word "handheld" isn't used in the presser, while "home console" is used several times. It is not a handheld.
