I agree with you but it does come with the dock.

Joshua Carter
I've been a nintenfag for the past 2 decades, I've even Stockholm syndrome'd the WiiU. But this shit is simply irredeemable. As shilly as both Sony and MS are, ignoring games and exclusives, at least they have a competitive machine for a product. There's literally no reason to get the Switch, but people will still do it, and convince Nintendo that they're doing good.
As of now a n3DS is a better investment than the Switch. I'm glad they aren't just going to forget about that at least.
Aaron Murphy
>no backwards compatability
Wait, are you serious? I missed that in the reveal stream. Not even gba or snes ports of games? You know, games that would be perfect to play on a """""portable""""" console?
Chase Rivera
b-but.. m-muh.. zelda.. muh mario
Hunter Murphy
will this be censored in the US version?
John Richardson
>"handheld. >Doesn't have backward compatibility with the 3DS RIP
Hudson Cooper
How much do you want to bet they're gonna charge you full price for any VC games you have on your 3DS/Wii U again?
Ryder Cox
Of course. Breath of the wild does look promising, but I honestly can't remember the last good open world game nintendo did as a first party title.
Xenoblade chronicles was fucking great, kinda held back by the wii, and was amazing when emulated on a high end pc.
Fuck, has Nintendo even made any first party open world games? This is starting to bug me. Now I'm REALLY worried that they are just going to use other open world games as references, without refining the details that make open world games actually interesting to play.
This might turn into another game filled with nothing but glorified fetch quests, people both love and hate those types of games, so expect nothing but mixed opinions for the entire month of march
Matthew Cook
This Console resolves none of Nintendo's past issues in regards to
•Power •Online Infastructure •3rd Party Support •Features •Overly Catering to the Younger Demographic
My Overall Nintendo Switch Thoughts
PROS: •Looks to be a good portable system •Looks to have some JRPGS •Powerful Portable •Unique Hybrid Gaming Device •USB – C Charge Port
CONS: •Overpriced Hardware •Overpriced Peripherals •Underpowered Home Console •No Ethernet Port •Limited Launch Lineup •Pay to Play Online •No Announced Achievements •3rd Party Support •No Retro Studios Game •32GB Storage Capacity •High End SD Card Are Expensive $150 - $200 •SD Cards Are Slow •Max Transfer Rate of 95MB/Second •Half the speed of a 7200RPM HDD •Non-Removable Battery
Camden Thomas
I wouldn't be surprised at all.
I can forgive the voice chat thing being done through some mobile app because it's kind of an interesting way to go about it, and I personally don't care because I never use voice chat.

I'd expect that on a bargain bin tablet, but not a premium console.

Samuel Myers
You left out the part where their current system has been dead as fuck for two years and they still barely have anything ready to go for launch.
Robert Torres
If I want to pay for voice chat, it better be done through the system, otherwise what stops me from just using discord with my friends?
Samuel Morales
No one at nintendo over 30 has played a videogame in 20 years. It would be interesting if they took something from SotC, but as it is, it's probably just going to be what OoT was supposed to be. Zeldarim.
Samuel Barnes
Yeah the SD card thing is kind of an issue. And aren't they supposedly using cartridges for games? How the fuck are they going to make that work with larger titles?
I'm betting you'll have to download the content for games like on xbone or ps4. If there's one thing I hate about newer games, it's having to install an update before you can even play the fucking thing.
Thomas Fisher
So, ... I guess you don't like it?
Colton Perez

Oliver Cooper
>no backwards compatibility >paid online
that's it. Out of your entire list, those are the only things that are true. This is some next level shitposting, user. Why you so mad though?
Caleb Jones
Everything has garbage artstyles too
Ryder Lopez
...
Matthew Jones
>if they took something from SotC See, that'd be a great way to go about it.
The skyrim point you made is pretty understandable though, like honestly Nintendo is probably going to dumb it down since this console is mostly being targeted to children again. Something also tells me they're going to pull a FFXV with it and claim the map is fuck-huge and have a massive fucking portion of it closed off or inaccessible.
Adam Morgan
How would it even be possible? People bitched at their last account system, so they changed it. Those games are tied to those old accounts.
Thomas Lewis
>Fuck, has Nintendo even made any first party open world games? Yeah, the original Zelda
Hudson Wilson
well, given that the pre-orders are sold out nearly everywhere already I think they just may get away with it again.
Mason Barnes
>two launch titles
Aaron Davis
No, just a lot of mad scalpers
Anthony Ortiz
Three decades ago.
Something tells me people are going to be let down immensely. Get ready for those buyer's remorse threads.
Joshua Jones
My biggest concern is that they will lose how well-designed the areas usually are with this open world mess. Linear sections aren't a bad thing and I need towns and forests that feel like forests. It already looks too much like the Great Sea only with guardians instead of barrels and a horse instead of a boat.
Evan Thomas

Caleb Russell
Never gets old.
Kayden Perry
>shit screen >shit build quality Fuck off, those two are things people that have been hands on with the damn thing are giving props to Nintendo for. >doesn't come with a dock >not portable It does come with a dock and it is as portable as the New 3DS XL. Here is an actual objective list of Pros and Cons:
Pros: >Good build quality for the system >Major Nintendo IPs coming in its first year >No mandatory gimmicks, i.e. you can use it as a regular home console or handheld without having to bother about the other >No region lock >Uses USB Type-C
Cons: >Weak as fuck launch line-up >High cost peripherals >No built in voice chat >Charging grip not included >Paid online
I think that the presentation itself is to blame for the "negative" impression the Switch gave. People that have gone hands on with the damn thing are saying the games and the console are good, and in the end that is all that matters. Still, I don't believe that is an excuse for some of the bullshit that Nintendo is trying to pull on us, like their fucking online "communication" system.
Sebastian Edwards
>It would be interesting if they took something from SotC They did, did you not see that miniboss? And those colossal sheika mech things, that the trailer seems to imply you go into to destroy them? Climbing is a main mechanic so SotC-like bosses seem very likely too
Aaron Watson
>System fails to close the hardware gap
Graphics aren't everything but this is going to bite them in the ass with multiplats yet again.
>"Get the next Call of Duty on Xbox One, PS4 or Steam!" >"Get Call of Duty: Reloaded Edition with less features and no multiplayer but waggle controls on Switch!"
Blake Jackson
>is as portable as the New 3DS XL This is false
Carson Ward
How could a portable device be as strong as a PS4 or even Xbone to begin with?
Camden Johnson
no one is looking to buy a switch to play call of duty. everyone already owns a platform to play it on.
Juan Gomez
It can't, and people who thought so are delusional and have no idea how technology works.
Jack Howard
He's right, once you detach the joycons (which you can put in the other pockets, I guess) it's the same size as a 3DS XL and is slightly smaller than a Vita.
Nathaniel Gomez
Sorry,
>from something else other than SotC
don't know what happened there. There are a lot of games they could draw something from, like the occasionally superior Okami.
Elijah Diaz
The Nintendo switch is overpriced meme need to die
Jack Taylor
>>Major Nintendo IPs coming in its first year
Aren't most of them also on WiiU?
Wyatt Hernandez
>Another "massive" open world that is mostly empty
Great, it's daggerfall and skyrim all over again. Fuck.
Isaiah Fisher
>Replying about time wasting on the same board. Here's your (you).
Anthony Scott
Does it have the Maxwell or the Pascal chip?
Cameron Gray
>three pieces, larger overall size >just as portable as one piece Again, "as portable as the New 3DS XL" is still false.
David Davis
I just used Call of Duty as an example. But the inability to provide the same multiplat experience that all the other options can do will become glaring.
Ian Russell
...
Xavier Rodriguez
Web browsers on consoles are so fucking shit that they're not even worth using.
Nathaniel Long
Only Zelda and Mario Kart 8, and since no one has a Wii U the new games will help move Switch units.
Luke Davis
Think of it this way. Those memory cards will sell for less going forward. While the Vita memory cards stayed the same for more than 5 years now.
Andrew Roberts
Nah, retards like you need to die.
Jeremiah Morris
It would actually be: >>"Get Call of Duty: Reloaded Edition with less features and no multiplayer but you can feel the ice in your glass when you go to treat your wounds."
Parker Carter
The reason why Vita memory cards are so expensive is because they're some kind special microSD.
SD cards aren't expensive because everything uses that shit
Ethan Hughes
again, everyone already has a place to play those multiplat games. Anyone who has any sort of interest in AAA games has already bought a PS4/Xbone/PC by now.
What the Switch needs to be is a place to play Nintendo's first party games and the types of games that typically would come out on 3DS/Vita.
Juan Russell
Exactly, captain obvious. And what can you take from this lesson?
Jackson Ramirez
They're Sony's proprietary format. They did the same thing with the PSP.
Thankfully, the PSP has an adapter to accept traditional SD/microSD. I'm pretty sure the Vita doesn't allow this though.
Grayson Price
Soon, user. Nintendo will announce its new console and the Switch will be forgotten.
Carson Young
>(you) There. That's what you wanted, right?
Julian Hall
>Charging grip not included This is a non issue since the batteries last 20hrs.
If you buy this thing you are a certified retard.
Christian Cooper
>This is a non issue since the batteries last 20hrs. >20hrs. What the fuck, for some reason I thought it was way less than that. Disregard that point then.
Daniel Lopez
Does 3DS still have game support?
Luis Rivera
Yeah, Nintendo worked some kind of wizardy on their controller batteries, since apparently the pro lasts for 40hrs on top of it.
It's gonna drop dead soon enough since it's cracked wide open.
Ethan Bennett
Where was that confirmed?
Jaxon Ward
This. OP doesn't even know what the fuck he's talking about.
Oliver Cook
The Schadenfreude will be the most glorious thing in a long time.
Lucas Ortiz
But the 3ds has an amazing library. It's totally worth it to buy one, hack it and pirate just about everything.
Samuel Jackson
>720p IPS is perfectly fine for a screen of that size >meanwhile, smartphones come with 1440x2560 displays
Nintenshills.
Michael Nelson
Nintendo did 240p in 2011 with the 3DS. They're cheap as fuck.
Parker Peterson
Anyone notice when someone brings up valid points about the Switch the Nintentoddlers come out and just call it bait without trying to refuite the points?
Like "Well I think paid online where you have to use a phone for voice chat is pretty shitty" "FUCKING B8!!!"
Aiden Lee
Damn, but what are some good games for it other then Resident Evil and Metroid? I already have a Vita and game support for that ia dead as well so I dont care.
Sebastian Miller
resolution that size on a screen that small is pure meme.
Adrian Thomas
...
Angel Richardson
user, new 3DS game releases have slowed down to a crawl thanks to last year's wave of hacks, deaths, and Sup Forums memes, like Brexit and Trump. The 3DS will last at least a year or two more before it bites the dust, though.
Charles Peterson
It doesn't come with a dock?
Blake Evans
Not debating that, but it won't keep getting support for much longer I don't think.
Grayson Adams
I bet you're one of those dumb faggots who used to say 1080p doesn't pay off on anything smaller than 40".
Jacob Mitchell
>Not even gba or snes ports of games? ports != backwards compat
Samuel Stewart
it had a even worse launch than the switch.
in a few years time the switch very well could have an equally impressive library.
Oliver Gonzalez
>doesn't come with a dock it comes with one
Lucas Richardson
Most of the stuff that comes up in the tile icons when you google Nintendo 3DS Games is good
Blake Scott
That list of cons is inflated with idiocy and lies. Only a few points are true. Read the rest of the thread for that.
Jeremiah Murphy
I can't unsee the cock.
Tyler Rivera
it kinda doesn't unless you are 2 feet away from it.
Xavier Roberts
>this is what Nintenshills actually believe
Mason Reed
Shouldn't it be either overpriced or underpowered? It's overpriced for a handheld, but that's because it's supposed to be a home console where it's cheap as fuck. It's underpowered for a home console, but that's because it can double as a handheld, where it's significantly more powerful than average.
Honestly, I think this weird hybrid shit is just impossible to evaluate until people actually start playing with it.
Sebastian Cruz
>it's the 4th cheapest console of all time Doesn't matter. It should be the cheapest console given how weak the hardware is.
>we still have no idea what the power is other than the stuff from the leakers who have gotten everything else wrong BotW on the Switch is confirmed to be 900p 30FPS, for a flagship AAA release in 2017. That's just sad.
>720p IPS is perfectly fine for a screen of that size It's not IPS. It's fucking TN.
>NES and SNES virtual console confirmed with online multiplayer for 2 playert games That's not backwards compatibility. That's just emulation. Not only that, but Nintendo will take away those "free" NES and SNES ROMs each new month.
