I've compiled a list of notable things from the presentation. In the list, I don't consider the presence of content or features (however gimmicky they might be) to be cons, and I also take into account the expectations of Sup Forums before marking something (such as the price tag) a con.
>PROS: No region locking Touch screen Three modes NFC Reader/writer, screen-capture button for image/video sharing, motion sensors, gyroscopes, colors, and wrist straps on joy-con Internal ice cubes (HD rumble) Object-detecting camera Virtual shaving (1-2 Switch) Rock'em sock'em boppers with split screen (Arms) Splatoon 2 (now with dual-wielding) Pro controller compatibility Mario GTA Xenoblade 2 Fire Emblem Warriors 50 third parties, 80 games in development SMT Octopath Traveler Yakuza has their back Skyrim FIFA Breath of the Wild is a launch title and has female Zelda
>CONS: $300 Paid online 2.5 - 6 hours of battery life Joy-cons are small Friends and alcohol sold separately Quality translations have been called into question
What do you guys think? Anything you wanted to see that you didn't, or was there something you saw that you wish you didn't?
Battery life is disappointing, but is on par with 3DS and Vita so it's not bad.
That portable charger you bought for Pokemon Go finally has another use.
Evan Stewart
but if it's just another 3DS, why would i get this?
Sebastian Gomez
>battery life
I don't understand, this is a handheld console?
Adrian Ramirez
>handheld >console pick one, you can't have both
Gavin Hernandez
>Female Zelda Dude
James Smith
>female zelda im missing the joke here, right?
Oliver Howard
So its not?
Gavin Sanders
What are the launch titles again? Zelda and what else?
Brayden Campbell
300$ is pretty cheap
Carson Roberts
It's a hybrid. You can take it off the dock and play it wherever like a normal handheld. But you can also dock it and play it on your TV with better performance.
Jeremiah Collins
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>better performance
Austin Allen
300$ isn't a con or a pro, please stop acting like it's bad.
Kevin Kelly
the internals run at a higher speed and the thing allows up to 1080p resolution docked.
So yes, better performance docked.
Levi Moore
>we added kernels of corn to your shit, now its better wow thanks Nintendo can't wait to pay three hundred fucking dollars
Jonathan Moore
>8 Off yourselves. High price, high cost for more controllers, shitty pace, 15 second trailers, translator fucking up on the spot live, stupid ass weak start showing 1 2 switch.
Gabriel Hughes
>1, 2 Switch >The Legend of Zelda: BotW >Just Dance 2017 >Has Been Heroes >Snipperclips >Super Bomberman R >Disgaea 5 Complete >Puyo Puyo Tetris >Rayman Legends >Steep >Skylanders: Imaginators >I Am Setsuna
Bomberman is looking very promising, hate that most people are overlooking it since it wasn't at the presentation.
Adam Carter
Go figure. If you were hyped for it then bad news won't kill your hype, if you were sceptical then it was a fucking disaster.
Joseph Rivera
I can play most of the interesting games already thanks to owning a PC and a PS4. Is zelda still coming to the Wii U?
Luis Sullivan
Its a homeheld. Fuvking coin that term.
Luke Edwards
It actually looks pretty cool and I luuv what they are doing with Zelda by the looks of it. I might preorder this console. I'll get the money by selling shit I don't need like my Xbox after I beat ff7 and uh, re7 obvs. I like the idea of a console I can lug around and use as a tablet or something in bed, or plug inta my second screen
Jayden Phillips
>Bomberman,Disgaea, Zelda as solid titles >a couple other tossups Looks good. Better than the last 3 fuckups at lainch by a MASSIVE margin. The Wii U, Ps4, and XB1 all launched with zero good games(unless 3dworld was a launch, then Wii U had one)
Josiah Price
>I might pre order Lol sorry m8 but youre about 30 minutes too late. Sold out basically everywhere already.
Jose Ross
Lmao I can do what I want
Henry Williams
It's too expensive for the underpowered hardware that it's running. The paid online is meh since most games are single player anyway. The controller prices are highway robbery and the console doesn't even sell with a game. It's a pass for me, maybe I'll buy one in a year or two but right now it's not looking very interesting honestly.
Jeremiah Gray
how is $300 listed as a con oh that's right none of you have jobs
Jack Ortiz
I don't like the paid online, and it would be nice it it was cheaper but otherwise it seems good. Probably won't buy it until December though.
Jordan Brooks
$300 is expensive when it doesn't even come with a game. You're looking at $360 to get it with Zelda plus whatever tax so somewhere near $400. Totally not worth it for that.
Benjamin Robinson
What the fuck is the skyrim a beefer normal ver or a downgrade special edition...
Jeremiah Collins
>+300 >+60 >+8% CA TAX >----------------------- >$388.80
Almost $400 out the gate. That's a lot of money considering I will only get it to play Zelda.
Nathan Peterson
what are you talking about amazon still lets you pre order, stop spreading misinformation.
Justin Thomas
>Launch line-up not a con
Nicholas Reyes
"I don't consider the presence of content or features (however gimmicky they might be) to be cons"
Eli Martinez
>Already sold out in a few online store fronts, including Amazon
Remember when shit posters were saying it wouldn't be hard to find at launch?
Thomas Martinez
>Quality translations have been called into question
loling at you eops
Jason Diaz
Scalpers always do this. They'll get stuck with them like they did with the Wii Us.
Isaiah Parker
>Three Modes >Splatoon 2 >Pro controller compatibility Are you handicapped? You really think these are "pros"?
It'll have one year of shitty ports of AAA titles, dropped right after that after the games sell and perform like shit and will rely ONLY on first party games and games Nintendo has contracted companies to make, which after the Wii U they havent got a fucking cent to do it with.
Nintendo will die with this, and good fucking riddance. They havent made a quality game in 10 years.
Samuel Perez
>1-2 games
Kayden Ortiz
>Already sold out in a few online store fronts, including Amazon
>put up 10 items for sale >10 autistic manchildren preorder them WOAH GUYS I CANT BELIEVE IT SWITCHES ARE JUST FLYING OFF THE SHELVES WE'RE OUT OF STOCK THE DEMAND WAS JUST TOO GREAT
Please considder suicide.
Henry Perry
>Shit games arent a con Im not surprised in the least you buy nintendo.
Christopher Rivera
>Can play Zelda right away >Have to wait a year for Mario
JUST FUCK ME UP WHY
Gabriel Morales
kek
Samuel Taylor
>8s, 6s and 7s Sup Forums being pretty rational for once.
