If you wait till 2020 then it might have 2 games worth playing.
Have fun with your Zelda spoilers
Holiday 2020 sounds like a better idea.
Yes.
Waiting that long if you're interested in BotW and Odyssey is almost as stupid as waiting till the current year to get a PS4.
Zelda really has no story to spoil
You should wait until they bring out the next console in 2 years
>buying a console for two games
It should be five games at the very least.
Just wait until they go third party.
here is a spoiler for every zelda game
link finds a sword and defeats the evil thing
If 2020 is that late for you then just wait till holiday 2018, but you will miss out on that sweet free online.
You could wait, but the price isn't going to drop in a looooong time, so if you know that you will buy it sooner or later either way, you might as well just buy it on release.
Yeah then the switch XL comes out
that's actually a good point
I bought the Wii U at launch and I got burned big time from that.
I'm not making that mistake again.
you have to be clinically retarded not to see BOTW is going to be a lore shitstorm
Summer is fine. They'll bring it down to $200 once it flops at release. Or at least bundle it bazillion stuff instead of just an empty piece of plastic in a cardboard box.
Buy it now and wait for custom firmware.
Considering every hacker worth their salt already knows the WiiU OS, should only be a few months until free games.
Dude, by 2020 they'll move on to their next train wreck of a console.
>you might as well just buy it on release.
Don't do this because there will be an updated version within a year and a half and new games won't run on the old one properly. They did this shit with the 3DS.
free game*
Don't over exaggerate the Switch's library user.
As much hate as this is getting, I honestly think the only major problems are the cost of the accessories and the paid online.
I don't know why everyone is acting like $300 is too much for a new console. The Bone launched at $500
This is your last chance.
After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue joycon - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red joycon - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.
I chose the Gray Joycon.
Or you choose both to match the only 2 games you'll have to play.
>did this shit with the 3ds
>3-4 games run better with ONE exclusive
Eat shit, sonygger
The bone was also not as powerful as the 360, and they got rid of the motion control gimmick shit being a mandatory purchase due to backlash. Nintendo isn't going to lower the price by removing the happy meal toy scanners and waggle shit from it's controllers. $300 is absolutely too much for a system like this, it has one fucking game of note coming out in the next 6 months and it's not even available in a bundle for $20 off.
Zelda's plot is literally been the same copy/paste shit since the 1980s. Even remote tribes in Africa know the plot to this series.
I already got it preordered, but thinking about cancelling now that more information has released.
I can't believe the fucking joycon dock is just plastic and not able to charge them and I gottta go buy one just for charging.
Also no info on Virtual Console, or compatibility with Wii/Wii U remotes. Also fucking sucks that even though it's running USB 3.1, it doesn't have quick charge or OPPO
Not even joking or memeing.
If you still buy nintendo products and you're an adult, you're actually autisitc.
>I can't believe the fucking joycon dock is just plastic and not able to charge them and I gottta go buy one just for charging.
the battery life is 20hours on the joycons.
Do you know how easy it would be just to add a port and some wires to make the hunk of plastic into a charger?
Like fuck me, I'm insulted by the bait and switch alone.
>4 games on launch.
I think this is worse than PS3 launch.
you can get a version of the dock that charges them.
Yes. But it's not included in the box. The one you get is a fake.
just dock them when you're done.
I doubt you'll play more than 20 hours a day
The fact you have to buy it seperate is fucking garbage.
You don't understand. I don't care about having to charge them on the tablet itself
It's the fact that they include a dock that looks exactly like something you have buy separate.
I'd honestly prefer if they didn't even give you the hunk of plastic tricking people into thinking it has function.
Plus I just know that after the summer, that the charger version will be included with every console
If you think the holiday 2017 titles will be enticing, sure. I'm getting it on launch because I want the definitive version of BotW and I don't want to wait an extra 8 months to play it while others are talking about it.
>as stupid as waiting till the current year to get a PS4
Speak for yourself, I don't think it was worth buying it until very recently.
>Plus I just know that after the summer, that the charger version will be included with every console
probably not imo
>I'd honestly prefer if they didn't even give you the hunk of plastic tricking people into thinking it has function.
>tricking people
people are just stupid
Yeah and I'm one of those stupid people.
I'm cancelling my preorder tomorrow. Fuck this. It's just gonna be like when I bought a launch 3DS again.
>Announce a new No More Heroes and SMT.
>Neither of these games have barely started development yet.
>mfw I'll just wait 2-3 years for the superior Switch lite and pick up all the good exclusives then.
I made the same mistake of buying the 3DS on launch, it was actually covered in dust after the first year since it hardly got played with. At least with the Switch I'll have BotW, Sonic 2017, Fire Emblem Warriors, Super Mario Odyssey, and Yooka Laylee to look forward to in the first year, and E3 hasn't even started yet.
Im buying a ps4 when persona drops. Its gonna be awesome having atleast 10 games wprth getting on it (there is like 10 right?)
Yeah, same. Bought mine during Black Friday, and only really went hard on Bloodborne. Waiting for March/April for more gaem.
I even made the mistake as not waiting to get one until the afternoon and I didn't even preorder it, I should've known something was wrong when it was still on the shelf by the time I got there. At least I got to try out a few GBA titles I otherwise never would've played, I even go back to playing them every now and again.
Im waiting to see what Nintendo brings to E3. If the line up gets more promising, I might pick it up after a price drop
>PRICE DROP AT E3
PRICE DROP AT E3
>PRICE DROP AT E3
YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST. ITS LITERALLY A PERFECT STRATERGY
Make bank of scalpers and the hardcore Nintendo, reveal casual titles at E3 and then drop the price to be more appealing to the masses
I expect a 250 1,2 Switch bundle by E3 as well
works for me, no doubt they'd give some dank compensation then for the early folks
ambassador program 2.0 baby
>buying a nintendo console at launch after the disaster of the wii and wii u
im so excited for BOTW. The Mario game looks awesome. But the feeling of having a no games brick sitting under your tv sucks. it has a shitty gimmick. And Please everybody remember the third party support doesnt mean anything every single developer said the wii u would be supported but lo and behold they arent.
no buy until price cut and a killer app or 2
I actually really liked what Nintendo did with the ambassador program, when they realized the mistake they made with the pricing they dropped it as soon as they could, and did something special for the fans that chose to support them besides the rather uneventful first year in its run. It felt like they actually cared about its consumers, which might have to do with Iwata still being in charge back then. I can't help but shake the feeling Nintendo has changed after Iwata passed, with all of these super high prices for the Switch, paid online services, and all of these ports for Wii U games making my purchase of the system feel like a complete waste, it just gives me a vibe they care less about loyal consumers now.
LITERALLY THIS
PEOPLE ARE JUST TOO STUPID TO REALIZE THIS
E3 GETS MORE COVERAGE THAN AN OBSCURE EVENT AT 5AM, AND THEY CAN ANNOUNCE THE PRICE DROP THERE.
>reveal casual titles at E3
youtube.com
>nintendo
>e3
i dunnow if you're dumb or what bit niny has avoided e3 like the plauge for the past 5 years or so
>wait for five games you want
>$500 console + $100 per game = $1000
>no time to play all the games you just bought
This is why I like to get in early when there's just one or two games I really want, especially if I know I'm going to eventually buy the thing anyway.
They still do livestreamed news during E3, it's the same result in the end so why does it really matter?
I'll buy one when there is a confirmed working mod because fuck jewtendo but I still want to play super mario Odyssey
...
>year and a half
>They did this shit with the 3DS.
New 3DS came out a whole 4 fucking years after the 3DS and got a total of ONE (1) exclusive.
No glitz and glamour and the gritty realism of a on stage presentation
Don't all consoles have shitty launch lineups?
I personally don't really mind as long if we get the same announcements for the same games. I already know what I'll want to buy and I like saving gameplay footage for when I get the game myself.
>obscure event
>literally a console reveal
>for Nintendo
You are both fucking idiots. One, Nintendo doesn't do E3, and two, a company that is going this fully jew on hardware, accessories, games, etc is not going to drop the price within six months of the console's launch. They stopped production of Wii U's and they were still full price on store shelves. Stop making excuses for these slanty eyed kikes.
>excuses
Do you remeber the 3DS. Switch at launch is literally a copy of the 3DS at launch. And since it is their only thing going forward, a price drop is inevitable
Yes, it´s enough time to know when are the games are coming after E3 and what game will be by 2019 or 2020
>Just Dance
>Skylanders
>Zelda!!! (but wait it's already being released for the previous gen and there's barely any performance difference because the two are so similar in terms of power
>Bomberman (Sort of cool but it looks like a $10 e-shop game
This is by far the worst console launch I've ever seen, and I thought PS4 was garbage.
Exactly my point. Casuals gobble this shit up
They aren't going to drop the price in six months when there still aren't any fucking games for it, you imbecile. At best they'll do a $300 bundle with a red and white joycon for Black Friday if Mario Odyssey is out by then.
>1080/900 vs 720 and a stable framerate vs unstable framerate
>not a big performance difference
BAKA DESU SENPAI
The last time they showed Zelda on Wii U was like 9 months ago, dude. You think they aren't going to do any optimizing at all? The game looks like shit on both, anyways. It's not worth a $300 upgrade when they'll both be pretty close. It's not like a jump from PS1 to PS2.
I hope for my sake they don't get a large casual crowd for this thing. It's been a decade since the Wii has been a thing and the casuals have been gone for years now. I know they're trying to chase that crowd again what with the whole joycon having motion controls and 1, 2 Switch that I honestly couldn't care less about. I want traditional games that aren't hollow and forgettable once when the craze is gone.
Seriously, what the fuck was up with that? By the time I actually wanted a 3DS the N3DS was on the way so I waited but I probably would have felt like a complete asshole if I bought one prior. N3DS didn't even come with a fucking charger.
Fuck off wit hthe Wii U meme. It';s only being released on Wii U as a fucking condolence.
>The game looks like shit on both, anyways
TA
TA
TA TA TA TARIGGEREDDDD!!!!
>I hope for my sake they don't get a large casual crowd for this thing
Have you SEEN the games they're advertising to casuals with? No one wants to fucking play this. Normalfags only liked Wii Sports because it came with the system, for a lot of Wii owners they literally never bought another game. They were fun little minigames that used wacky space technology that let you bowl without using a controller, this shit is just embarrassing and weird, it also costs $50 for probably an hour before you get bored.
>implying games won't be announced
E3 announces games, along with a price drop.
>announcing games AFTER the launch
yeah real smart marketing there
nintendead
You are underestimating the YouTube appeal of this game, along with its potential as a drunk game
Nintendo has been a generation behind since the Wii, I'm not sure that anyone expected amazing graphics. I won't stand up for Nintendo in that regard but I honestly think you have to be a fucking retard to expect graphics that compare to Xbone or PS4, let alone PC.
No, it's a Wii U game they ported to the Switch.
i expected them to learn their lesson with the wii u
Is this ironic? Sometimes I don't know anymore.
Exactly my point, if they have two consoles in a row where they don't have an avid casual crowd, they might snap back into their senses. I might try this game out if a friend has it, but I am in no way purchasing this game, I want stuff like this to be gone.
If you don't like Zelda than yes.
filename made me laugh more than it should have.
They did, with the name and marketing
The rest, eh, not so much
I ordered on Amazon who will drop my preorder price so I hope this happens.
Nintendo doesn't do E3. Nintendo also doesn't do price drops unless the system is completely tanking, and even then only for handhelds. This is a home console. This is Wii U2.
>youtube appeal
How is that a large crowd? Some fucking let's player plays it on stream, big deal. No one will want to play this while drunk because anyone who would buy this shit isn't old enough to drink. If it had been Switch Sports, and a pack-in, they would have made their console worthy of buying at launch. This is just weird, akward waggle shit.
But they're actively trying to get the same success they had with the Wii, without understanding why they had that success in the first place.
>implying nintendo will keep making consoles after this fuckup
its all mobile games from here sir
I'm a Nintendo fanboy and I agree that the Wii U was a piece of shit. I don't plan on getting rid of mine at all but it's a god damn paper weight at this point. I hope to God the Switch turns out somewhat decent at the end of it's lifetime.
I want to fuck that soccer mom-looking woman Cammie.
Why would anyone unironically want to buy this piece of shit
>Nintendo selling a piece of hardware with a low battery life
Hmm...
Was at a media/VIP session, played it - you can wait, at least until they release a revised version.
-Significant slowdown when undocked, on nearly every game I tried
-Joycons are horrible to hold without the straps/grips, button placement is really uncomfortable as are the triggers
-1 2 Switch and Arms are just waggle controls, back to Wii level
-Only decent game was Zelda and it's out on Wii U anyway.
Wait for them to release a better/Lite/XL model and more games. It's not a great experience yet.
you have to be clinically retarded to not realize that Nintendo always falsely advertises Zelda stories.
Remember when they advertised Skyward Sword as having a romance between Link and Zelda, titling a trailer "Love Trailer", only for the "romance" to be three fakeout will they wont they kisses in the first three hours and literally nothing else for the entire game.
Also the "romance" song they used in the trailer was used in a fucking sidequest where a ugly bitch wants Link's cock lmao
>two consoles in a row...might snap them to their senses
History says sega thought that too
It's even worse than the Wii U gamepad because you can't replace the battery, ever.
me too. I love my wii u but it was the worst 300 bucks ive ever spent
The game I ended playing most on mine was Ninja Gaiden. Xenoblade might have kept my attention longer if I didn't lose my save after several hours because I had to download and install on a flashdrive that it refused to read from.
