Anything on the 3DS
A bad port of S/M for the Switch

The old thread is full of babies complaining about the Switch. I'm tired of being held back by 244p 3DS garbage from 2011, let's have some new stuff please

>>32677395
>244p
It's 240p dumbass

>>32677395
>Something on the Switch

Why the fuck would you want something on the Switch? I finished Zelda and the thing has been collecting dust because it took so damn long.

Pokemon belongs on a handheld, not something I can't take more than a few miles from my house. Until they make this thing work as they claimed it does i'd rather be held back by 244p than be stuck at home to play Pokemon.

>>32677297
>WHAT DO YOU WANT?
Revisit any of the older regions.

>WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?
New Alola game

>WHAT DO YOU DREAD?
New Alola game. Fuck that region and everything about it.

>want
Sinnoh
More cross gen evolutions.
>expect
Alola
More regional variants/Z moves
>dread
A Kanto remake. A sequel wouldn't be that bad I guess.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?
Something 3DS, especially a D/P remake. If they must be remade, they need remade on a system with two screens.
WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?
Something Switch.
WHAT DO YOU DREAD?
D/P remakes on the Switch.

Seriously I even own a Switch but that would be horrible.

>Hopes
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon with Ultra Beasts on the Switch. The Ultra Beasts could even straight-up invade the world of Pokemon, instead of having a handful pop through.
Make the world fully explorable, and you have to find new dungeons. No traveling straight to any dungeon from a hub town. Have Ultra Space be a whole other world that you can also explore.

Alternatively, have the protagonist be somebody who has never heard of Ultra Beasts or Ultra Space, but they wake up in Ultra Space as one.
>Expectations
Pokemon Stars. I'd be okay with it if it's a third version, and very disappointed if it's just a port. Sequels would be a pleasant surprise.

I agree, it would be cool to see more of the worst region in the franchise just to see how shitty Gamefreak can get after Cutscenes: The Experience

>>32677456
>The Switch is a handheld
No it's not. Barely fits in even larger pockets, price range of a home console(with none of the perks of a handheld), and 80 dollars to replace the things you *have* to take off to force it into your pocket.
We could get on the issue of battery life but I'm sure we both know how shit that is.

>Then why wouldn't you want a new game for it?
It doesn't collect dust because it has no games, it collects dust because I prefer handhelds and am often away on business. The 3DS is just better as a handheld. I'd take inferior graphics for the game to be portable.

Anon, I've had a Switch since day 1, and from my experience, it's not nearly as inconvenient as you're making it out to be.
And it's not just me that finds it easy to carry around, because I know 3 other people who have had Switches since launch and take them with them everywhere.

It's gonna be Pokemon Stars and/or Pokemon Gen IV remakes on the Switch. Their reveal Directs are always short like that.

>>32677626
I know plenty of people who bought the switch and most of them got rid of it not long after, its only notable game so far is Zelda and Mario isnt out for ages, adding pokemon to it would bulk it up to 3 games. Its not that we're poor fags, we're just not paying out over $300 to play 3 games at max.
I skipped out on the wiiU for the exact same reason and i've never regretted it once, when the next actual handheld comes out i'll buy it.

This. I don't get the whole "Switch isn't portable" thing. It's not really any bigger than your average tablet, but you don't see people claiming tablets aren't portable.

Probably the Pokken Switch that was leaked last week and some stuff about Marshadow's US distribution.

Has Ash-Pikachu been officially unveiled in the US yet? Probably that, too.

>>32677687
>I know plenty of people who bought the switch and most of them got rid of it not long after
So you know plenty of idiots? Why would they get rid of the console? It's not like Nintendo was secretive about when ARMS, Splatoon, or Mario were coming out, either. They had a schedule to look at to know what to expect.

I take my Switch on on my commute to and from work everyday, about 3 hours total.

I've never had an issue, and I have a portable battery the size of a lipstick cylinder if I need it.

I get like 4 hours playing Mario Kart in portable mode, and it's comfy to play.

>>32677493
>Barely fits in even larger pockets
It's not called it pocketheld, now is it? You think the original Gameboy was comfortable to take around? Even the Color was pretty bulky.

>>32677680
Mine is day one as well, and I can't at all see how anybody could take this with them "everywhere"
In my experience i've found people who can take it "anywhere" don't really take it much farther than their WiiU pad, and if they do it's on short car trips under half an hour.

I define everywhere as trips across state, at a minimum, and really the only convenience the Switch offered me was zelda on the shitter.
It's not especially portable, it's not at all convenient, and the only way to cram it into your pocket is to remove controller cons that cost a third of the console to replace.

The general consensus around here is that it's not very portable at all, do you perhaps live densely populated area where you don't have to go very far? It's hard enough for adult owners to carry this places, the poor kids that got them on launch have already had them scratched by their own docks.
After a hardware revision this could be right for pokemon, but not now.

>>32677675
Battery life is horrid but thats just a given and we don't need to keep beating a deadhorse.

>>32677744
Some Japanese online store accidentally mentioned it on the list of compatible games for a Switching fighting game controller, then quickly deleted that bit.

>>32677759
I can give you it's a better handheld than the Gameboy. But is it a better handheld than the 3DS? No. Fine as a home console, great for those stuck with a WiiU all these years.

>>32677761
>Battery life is horrid but thats just a given and we don't need to keep beating a deadhorse.
Get ready for people to say you can buy a battery extender to remedy this when that just adds an even larger cost to an already overpriced console.

Got a switch for my morning commute and was very disappointed in the handheld mode but at least I have a solid home system

>>32677776
>But is it a better handheld than the 3DS? No.
The 3DS was pretty shit until it got games. The Switch is already the best handheld, hardware-wise, and has some a great selection of games to start it off in its first year.

>>32677776
It is a better handheld than the 3DS, though. Sure, it's bigger and not as easily pocketed, but a 6 inch 720p screen with really solid graphics for a portable is fucking heaven after the tiny screen 240p pixel hell that is the 3DS.

>>32677761
A lot of people especially city-dwellers have go bags they take with them daily. I'm assuming anyone who takes their switch "everywhere" is one of these. You can't shove it in a pocket easily, but a Switch in a case fits just fine in a bag.

>>32677795

Switch stomps 3DS as a handheld.

3-4 hours average if what the launch 3DS had and I'm not getting eye cancer from 240p bullshit anymore.

I'm not a fag obsessed with shit going in my pockets, I have a messenger bag for my shit because that's nornal in today's society where everyone has a laptop, tablet, etc to carry.

I can't go back anymore, Shit has a lower resolution than the fucking PSP which released in fucking 04.

>>32677793

I love mine for my commute, what issues do you have?

>>32677805

Handhelds, let alone Nintendo products, have never been about the graphics. Even in comparison the Switch isn't all that good to any other console on the market right now.

It's about convenience and being a good handheld. Having nice graphics does not make something a good handheld, nevermind that even if the Switch did get a mainline pokemon game the 3DS library would make it a superior long journey choice for the next two years, at least.
3DS is one system, with superior battery life, with a bunch of games on it no muss/no fuss in a single pocket. The Switch demands two, at least, with the joycons split off to even fit. If you break/lose your 3DS it can be replaced for half the cost of the wii and the only losable part, the stylus, is pocket chance.

Compare with the Switch that needs another 100 dollars in accessories to even attempt to function outside and overpriced controllers that you can easily lose. For children this is a nightmare, and that's the target audience for pokemon. Trapping them at home is really shitty because some anon wants a main series pokemon game he can play on his TV(especially when we could have another XD/collo)

>WHAT DO YOU DREAD?

I don't give a fuck what they announce. Just not that, please. The remakes don't deserve that shitty handheld.

>>32677839
Ranting anon seemed to cover them pretty well, but I guess the system build? The snap on controls are hella wobbly and it feels like the thing will break at anytime(this is apparently common among the Switches around here). It's just not comfortable to play along side the other issues rantnon brought up.
I use online sparingly/just for pokemon and most stick to offline games. Paid online scares me.

>>32677845
>>WHAT DO YOU DREAD?
>DP remakes on the fucking 3DS

So you would force the games that introduced the two screen gimmick onto something that only has one? That would ruin like half the fun shit from that era.
D/P remakes should be 3DS, maybe even N3DS exclusive, if Pokemon has to move onto the Switch and not another handheld.

>>32677840
Graphics fucking matter.

240p Is not okay anymore, I'm not asking for photorealism but the ability to experience important things like making out facial details.

Also Pokémon on Switch could finally fix frame rate, 3DS is so underpowered it effects gameplay. We could be back to constant 60fps.

>>32677840

>>32677856
Oh I agree it feels a bit cheap, yeah.

I've never felt like it would break though, you could always wait for the inevitable hardware revision with better quality.

Paid online sucks but it was inevitable, and at $20 an hour it's not painful at least.

>>32677871
The framerate only really suffers when the 3D is on which we wont have.
But if graphics matter why the fuck are we settling for the Switch? The Switch is only good in comparison to the 3DS, graphics wise. Have you seen the specs on that thing?

Nevermind what you're asking for is trying to make pokemon closer to the generic artstyle the 3DS has already been forcing it to. No matter the tech they should keep things simple.

>>32677864
Fuck off. They can easily make a single screen experience again. The Switch didn't stop Splatoon devs to ditch the gamepad features and keep everything in one screen.

The 3DS is a cancer handheld that needs to die. Look how fucking useless the touchscreen was in SM. They don't give a fuck about it anymore. Get S2M2 or Stars or whatever the fuck you want for 5 fps double battles, just stay the fuck away from potential DP remakes.

>>32677875
What is the purpose of a handheld-only switch? It's not going to be significantly cheaper because all of the tech is already in the tablet, the dock is just an encrypted TV out.

>>32677906
>It's not going to be significantly cheaper
No dock + no joycons = $100 less.

>>32677875
>Switch IS replacing the 3DS, you retard mongrel.

The sad part is the Switch is replacing both the 3DS and the WiiU.
We've been cheating twice with a shitty, underpowered, home console that is graphically inferior to it's rivals combined with a halfassed shitty handheld gimmick.
No party wins in this scenario.

>>32677875
>What is Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga DX

>>32677901
Are you brain dead?

In SM double battles drop to like 20fps.

If you turn on weather and send out Mons like Moltres you can hit close to 10fps

>>32677919
The tech inside the joycons would have to be the same, attaching them to the console isn't going to make them cheaper.

The post under me will eat a bag of dicks if the following things in this post is not mentioned

>>32677942
They don't have to be joycons. The handheld could just be compatible with them, but just have its own buttons attached to it.

>>32677845
>The remakes don't deserve that shitty handheld.
They absolutely do

>>32677901
Switch is pretty much the best you can do graphically in that form factor without breaking $1500 to use high end laptop components.

Switch graphics are great as well, not every game needs to be The Witcher 3 graphically.

240p graphics are eye cancer, that is a resolution from the 90s.

>>32677904
>Get S2M2 or Stars or whatever the fuck you want for 5 fps double battles, just stay the fuck away from potential DP remakes.
So the things that would ACTUALLY FIT ON THE SWITCH should remain on the handheld? What the fuck?

I'm not arguing they can't do a single screen experience, but the D/P remakes are ones that DESERVE the two screen experience. You proved my own point with the Sun/Moon not using the touchscreen: they would be perfect for the Switch.

Meanwhile D/P remakes could have all those nice touch games they forgot about and make it a proper remake, rather than Sun/Moon with a Sinnoh skin. Holy shit have you even played the originals?

>>32677937
>FE team already said Echoes was the last 3DS FE game
>GF hired people to make Wii U tier 3D models

HMM

>>32677938
Is this an O3DS thing? It runs fine on my N3DS and it sounds like a lot of problems could be solved with N3DS exclusive games(what with N2DS coming out and Nintendo dropping support for O3DS).

>>32677845
At best you'll be getting a switch port. If we get DP remakes they're going to at least be on the 3DS. They aren't going to drop a console in the middle of the generation.

>>32677967
How can you argue graphics matter yet defend the fucking Switch? I'm not asking for everything to be Witcher 3 graphically I'm asking for Nintendo to make a system thats up to snuff.

>>32677959
It's not going to make the console significantly cheaper for Nintendo to produce just because the controls are attached. And their whole marketing strategy is tied up in pushing the hybrid angle. Making a Switch that doesn't switch is stupid.
If someone wants a portable Switch, they can just use their Switch exclusively in handheld mode.

>>32677992

>D/P remakes on switch
Why would you burden the remakes on the Switch? Stars would make more sense as the first Switch game.
Instead of making the best of both they just created an underpowered homesystem with the worst part of handhelds.

>THE DSi IS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD

You are really a clueless idiot if you think Nintendo is still going to keep supporting it, especially since sales have tanked, and a shitty hardware revision doesn't mean shit. The Wii Mini came out and that didn't stop the Wii from dying to the Wii U

Yes and this was when the NX had the potential to the bridge gap. Fastforeward to the Switch and we have something that can't function as a handheld in battery life, build quality, support, or price.
I'd have liked a unified console more than anybody but it just wasn't in the cards this gen.

Sadly Nintendo probably will replace the 3DS with this because they have no qualms about turning their back on the handheld gamers that kept them alive in the WiiU dryspell.

People like you get a home console that is underpowered, but passable, but what do handheld gamers get? Nothing.
Just because you like to shin the sunlight doesn't mean we all do.

Ergo why they're going to make a handheld only version of the Switch. Cheaper, and more portable.

Not a brand new hardware, and certainly not keeping the dying 3DS alive. It's the only logical outcome

A more logical outcome would be a true handheld some 2-3 years down the line.

Why make a Switch that doesn't Switch?
One could argue the 2DS was a 3DS without it's gimmick but the 3D is nowhere near important enough to compared to what they claim is a "hybrid"

More likely would be the Switch's basic frame with a new gimmick added on, at best.

Nope, gotta squeeze as much money from 3DS before it's completely phased out.

>>32678259
The logical outcome is we get a Switch thats a finished product, rather than a proof of concent, as a hardware revision and the current Switch drops to handheld price.

It's the shittiest future but one we need to live with.

The handheld would still be compatible with the dock and joycons, but you'd need to purchase them individually.
The handheld version would be for those who don't care about the home console aspect at all.

>>32678295
It's good to have this mindset. I envy you.

>>32678295
and somehow still experience immense disappointment

>>32678295
The only way people won't get their panties in a twist.

>>32678296
But you're acting like ditching those will make it that much cheaper to produce. It doesn't mean Nintendo will be able to drop off 60 dollars for no dock and another 80 for no joycons off the price for the console, that's not how accessory pricing works.

>>32677680
Oh so you're one of those guys that sticks his O3DS in his cargo shorts pockets? Lrn 2carry a manpurse messengerbag

>>32678296
So how is this any different than the normal Switch? The joycons are half of how they get you with the stock unit and the dock is just a hunk of plastic with an hdmi cable.

It makes no logical sense to do it like this when it would defeat the entire point of the system.

>>32678322
I use that for work. Pockets are gaming.
I'm not putting something as fragile as a Switch in any form of bag anyway.

Really the great part about the 3DS is I can shove it in almost any pocket, especially since I didn't fall for the XL meme.

>>32678320
Switch is $299
So handheld only without dock and joycons could slash the price to $199-$229
Perfectly affordable for the handheld market.

>>32678256
The Switch seems has two modes of battery consumption based on the game it's playing.
Something like Breath of the Wild or Mario Kart 8 would average betwen 2.5 and 3 hours.
Other games like Disgaea 5 or Blaster Master Zero average about 5 hours.
Pokemon would likely be towards the 5 hour mark as it's not a graphically intensive action game or uses any physics.

Additionally, Sun and Moon are battery hogs on any iteration of the 3DS and I seriously doubt you get 6 hours while playing either one unless you turn off wifi, turn the brightness down to 1, and turn on power saving mode.

>>32678342
Wtf are you doing with your bags where things are breaking? Switch is no less fragile than any other tablet. I'd say pockets are more dangerous

It seems like everyone is talking shit about Kanto, but the fact is that SM is the 6th sequel to RBY. Do you get mad because Mario is in SMB3? You all are lucky to have as many Pokémon as you have, and really need to shut this "Kanto pandering" meme the fuck up. Deal with the fact that every new game is, in the end, an expansion on the originals.

>>32678343
It wouldn't though. The production cost of the Switch is currently something like 257 dollars. Knocking off the dock and joycon shells (because the inner components would still be attached to the system) would not reduce the price that much.

Precisely. People want it on the Switch because it would "look amazing" but it would probably look little better than it's 3DS variant, at least this gen, and gain nothing from actually being on the Switch.

Best to milk the 3DS market with remakes and put nostalgia kanto shit/stars/gen 8 on the Switch. Right now we'd just get shitty 3DS elements.

>>32678365
>because the inner components would still be attached to the system)

???
Why would they?
The point of the handheld is to have its own controllers attached to it. Just for inputs.
The point is that the system would still be compatible with joycons, if you decided to purchase them individually. It wouldn't just be two joycons soldered to each side of the device.

>Playing a main series Pokemon game on a giant flat screen TV, curled up in blankets

It's a little more fragile than the tablets i've owned, especially because Nintendo isn't supporting the Switch very well at this time.
Dead pixels out of the box? Upwards of 10? This is normal!
Scratched by the dock it comes with? This is normal.
Combine with the joycons being hella fragile and easy to lose you have a losing combination. At least the clamshell designs protect the screens without having to invest a case/bag/screen protector/etc... to further up the price to make up for poor design. My 3DS' shell still looks mostly unharmed, while my Switch is already showing dents.

It's not graphically intensive because there's usually only a handful of complex models on screen at once. That doesn't mean the models aren't good. They would undoubtedly look much better on Switch. However, the bigger thing holding Sun and Moon back from looking good on Switch is the textures. If Game Freak has high res textures stored away because they knew about the Switch while working on SM, this shouldn't be a big issue. If they don't have these textures, it'll likely be like Monster Hunter XX.

Yeah, I've seen a lot of people complain about "having to carry a bag around just for the switch" but I already take a string bag with me pretty much everywhere. It holds my phone charger, water bottle, pens, and if the day permits it, my switch/3ds. I carry my 3ds in a large case as well, so carrying my hand-held in a separate bag instead of a pocket has been something I've done for a while.

So if the 3DS is dead why did we just get a banwave? Wouldn't it have been best to cut losses?

>>32678600
The problem is things only work like that a for vocal minority at best. The 3ds would have been fine in a bag but most certainly not a Switch.

It's the inferior choice for both bags and pockets unless yer willing to sink another 1/3 of it's price in accessories.

You'll need a lot more than a case to make that thing handheld ready.

>>32678623

>>32678465
MHXX not looking like BotW is a combination of Capcom being Capcom, MHX being a 2015 game, and the general geometry of the landscape in the 3DS version being rather low to make the game run at a playable framerate for an action game.

In any case, we don't know what kind of effort would go into a Pokemon for Switch. We've seen the same models used in Go and they look much better there. As for the rest of the game, it's very dependent on how far ahead Game Freak was thinking.

>>32678664

Switch is more powerful than both the 3DS and Wii U and fills both functions as a TV console and handheld, so I don't see what the problem is. It was always the smartest move Nintendo could make for their next system. If they made a new dedicated home console and dedicated handheld instead they would still be underpowered compared to the competition, so I don't know what you're complaining about. It's just one less $400 system you have to buy.

>>32677970
>You proved my own point with the Sun/Moon not using the touchscreen: they would be perfect for the Switch.
Exactly why there isnt going to be a third version other than they literally havent done one since Platinum. No crystal remake, no Emerald remake. no Grey, no Z.
But we'll get a super version for Sun/Moon? What the fuck is wrong with people?

>fills both functions as a TV console and handheld
Incorrect.
While it's a passable home console, it's underpowered compared to anything the rival market has going on.
The "handheld" mode is nothing a handheld should be. It's not convenient to use or carry nor is it portable. It's battery life is horrid and Nintendo gives shit tech support with it. You need a fuggin smartphone to chat to boot, and paid online for the same shit we'd been getting for free is always bad.

Sadly Nintendo will probably go the dumbest route and have it fill both roles, screwing their handheld fanbase that kept them floating while the WiiU was being a steaming pile of shit.
Before I could have just purchased a 200 dollar handheld and be happy but now im forced to pay 100 more dollars+ for things/features I'll be seeing no use out of in any capacity.
>>32678766

Three hours of battery life and no easy way to carry without huge pockets, a purse, or a Nintendo-brand "please rob me" bag is definitely the trademark of a handheld console. It's portable (sorta) but it's not a handheld.

I'm expecting a new pokemon 3DS game since they are just releasing the new 2DSXL.

I am HOPING for a higher resolution switch version. They don't even NEED to make higher polygon models since the models will look just fine on the Switch screen. Just up particle count or some shit on the attack effects and maybe have some nice weather visuals.

If they announced the next game is switch and 3ds. These 3ds fags would still bitch about it.

>>32679043
>caring about graphics on something that is supposed to be a handheld.
I bet you snubbed the GBA for the Gamecube as well.

This argument has been going on for joys but you're both ignoring the main draw of Pokemon on the Switch:

M U L T I P L E S A V E F I L E S

>>32679069

It's a standalone all in one console you can play with or without TV. It's a handheld no matter how you look at it. If PSP/PSV count as a handheld there is no argument against the switch being a handheld albeit with a docking feature.

>>32679012
People have been wanting that since the N64

>>32679098

>Durdur graffix caring on hAndhald
When I have the choice between playing in HD and on a potato, I'm going to side with HD.

>>32679095
Sadly Nintendo is just shitty enough to force that on handheld gamers.

It's just really, really shitty without a TV.
I could my WiiU on the shitter as well but that doesn't make it a handheld.

Good for you, at least you have that choice.
Meanwhile people who want to leave their house have no choices.

This fine and all for you home console devoted guys after the travesty that was the WiiU. Even if it's a piece of crap it cant be worse than the WiiU.

>>32679139
>Meanwhile people who want to leave their house have no choices.

You are a moron.

>>32679099
The positives for switch pokemon far out ways the 3ds positives.

Switch

Can play on my tv
Can play on handheld
Multiple save files
Better graphics
Better sound qualities

3ds
You can put your 3ds 240p in your pocket.

That's it

From another thread:

>I personally really like the 3DS. I'm glad Monster Hunter will have Switch/3DS compatibility, it means I can play at home on a TV, at my friends' houses on my Switch screen (also when the kids want the TV so I don't have to move my whole console), and on my 3DS when I have to go somewhere. Say what you will, but the Switch isn't as portable as everyone sees to think.

I can only hope that GF implements something similar if they do a release on both platforms. The Switch screen isn't that portable. It's got fairly poor battery life when not docked, it's much larger than even the 2DS. It's main draw, in my opinion, is you take it to a friend's house who has a Switch, and multiplay there. It's not for the train, or the doctor's office, or whatever. Unless you wear JNCO jeans or cargoes all the time, or you carry a bag all the time, it's simply not that portable.

>>32679149
>You can put your 3ds 240p in your pocket.

But it's an important feature! Some of us don't have a choice!!

the switch is fine for shit like traveling, of course it's a little hard to take it between work or whatever but i'd rather have a better game than one i can play on the way to work.

>>32679157
Fairly poor battery life? I get between 3 and 3 1/2 hours with Zelda, and 5 to 5 1/2 hours with games like Shovel Knight and Has-Been Heroes. How is that bad?

>>32679159
>implying HD is an important feature
I'm not seeing the downside to a graphically inferior system I can take on the go as opposed to a slight better graphical experience that grounds me to my house.

>>32677687
What is mk8?

>>32679159
Put in your bag or buy a switch carrying case if it bothers you so much

>>32679149
>Multiple save files

as if GF would do that.

>>32679176
I get 7-8 on my N3DS with Monster Hunter, can get more with Pokémon. If I want to use 3D and Max brightness I still get at least five.

>>32679157
I'd love that but the Switch fanboys will call you a shitposter.

They have to force this shitty notion that HD gaming is the most important thing to fix their buyer's remorse. This isn't about quality of gaming to them, it's just a shitposting war at this point.

>>32679181
Where do you play your 3ds?

The switch battery life is the same as the original 3ds on handheld mode

>>32678418
this XDDDD

>>32679189
They will unless they find a way to force the multiple Switch profiles to use the same save file. If they somehow do that it's just bullshit.

>>32679181
This, like seriously
>>32679184
Ha! I live in Chicago. I'm not getting a carrying case for a Switch, that's like asking to get robbed.

>>32679181
You're not grounded to your house if you're a functioning human being.

If your monkey hands can figure out how to mash out the jibberish you're spouting, you're smart enough (just) to work it out.

>>32679183
I can play that on my WiiU.
I've already made one regrettable console choice, why should I make two?

>>32679192
Switch matches original 3DS in battery life. N3DS does have a better battery life, but I don't see how the Switch's is bad by any means.

>>32679193
It's not just HD. 3DS also has worse buttons, a slow ass OS, poor internet (far worse than Switch), and a shitty Hasbro design.

I rarely have time to spend at home, and I'm usually on the go be it around the county(usually 6 or so hours in a car any given day unless an off day), or im on a flight for work to another country.

The Switch's battery life isnt good for this, let alone all the other setbacks. My N3DS (non XL) is pushing it as it is but the battery life is a little better my O3DS so I put up with it.
The Switch is just a whole nother ballgame and not worth the effort when I have a game library on a handheld that's truly portable with consistent battery life that doesn't depend on the game(nevermind that the only game currently worth playing gives about 3 hours and mariokart is just a port).

>>32679206
>This, like seriously

I feel ya. Nintendo needs to give more options rather than try to force their handheld fanbase to homeconsoles.

>>32679207

The 3DS is too large to fit in most pockets. Unless you're an 11 year old fat kid who still wears cargo shorts their mom bought them.

I take a Laptop to school every day to school lol.

Switch is smaller than that. It's not hard to adjust

Pick one. Also this is the age of smart devices, if you're stuck using your game system's Internet browser, you're probably the problem.

Most people who have a 3ds. Have the original 3ds. They didn't upgrade to the new 3ds. They wouldn't even know the difference in battery life with switch

>>32679217

So aside from the slowish OS nothing major over the 3DS then?

>>32679221
>the difference between the resolution of an nes game and the resolution of a modern console is "slight"
Yes? I mean I don't see what Sony fanboys see in the Switch but they seem to be flocking to it and demand all their games be ultra HD all of the sudden.

>>32679234
Three since I own a Switch.
Fuck.

>>32679254
Fits fine in literally all my pockets, and I wear Lucky Brand. It's comparable in size to my Note 4, which also fits in my pocket just fine.

>>32679271
So are you, to be fair.
Plugging your ears and humming isn't going to make the point any less valid.

>>32679271

Design doesn't mean clamshell, dipshit for brains.

I'm allowed to bring electonics with me. But between my phone, my laptop, and my wallet it's best to carry a handheld rather than a Switch.

bring the charger with you and charge it at the airport. for a car ride, you can buy a portable charger. i don't see what problems you would have with a switch that you wouldn't have with a 3ds.

>>32679293
Nintendo devices have always looked like kids toys! The Switch does, too! I don't dislike the Switch. I own one, bought it day one, I love it. I'm just not blind to its limitations. I own a N3DS also, and in terms of how well I can port it around, it's objectively loads better.

>>32679308
Not seeing a significant difference to be honest.

>>32679308
Most people I see playing a Switch look like >>32679301

3ds users are mostly children.

>>32679308
>nintendo condoning manspreading
fuck the switch

>>32679300

It's barely fucking bigger than the 3ds. If you can carry around a laptop and a 3ds then there's no reason why you can't carry around a laptop and a switch.

>>32679318
>you can buy a portable charger. i don't see what problems you would have with a switch that you wouldn't have with a 3ds.

So after spending 100+ dollars on a function I wont be using, I need to put even more into this thing to make it into a handheld?

The 3DS has battery life that can keep going without needing charged on the car no matter what I play. Switch limits me to shovelware.

>>32679331
The 3DS barely fits as it is, the bag is filled with the laptop.
The Switch isn't build to be shoved into places like the 3DS is, i'd rather not ruin the thing trying to force it to be something its not.

Meanwhile the 3DS' size, design, battery life, and game library make it a superior choice to take around with me.
