How many here actually bought a Switch?

How many here actually bought a Switch?

I've seen more complaining here about the system so I am intrigued as to how many here actually bought the system.

Naturally, one has to assume that since this is Sup Forums and the instinct here is to bitch about anything related to video games. I am just intrigued into how many buyers Nintendo had.

I bought one because I was eyeing a Nintendo system for so long and almost bought a Wii U until stopping myself by telling myself that the NX was just around the corner which it was since the Switch was announced and because of future Nintendo games. I still have Splatoon 2 on pre-order. There are more Nintendo games that I want to play that makes my purchase of a PS4 regrettable. Owning my PS4 really does make me feel like a console peasant who can't make good investments. I should have just put that money into my PC which I later acquired, but the principal was there.

As a long time sony fan, ive bought a nintendo switch and it is so epic!!!111!!!

waiting until kurisumasu

but i'm heavily thinking about getting one now

I bought it and have had no blue or orange screens, no controller connectivity issues, no dead pixels, nothing to speak of. Enjoying the fuck out of Zelda right now, the Specter Knight game, and that Racing game from the eShop. I'm not sure what everyone's complaining about.

I have one and haven't had any problems with it.

I won't because I own a launch Wii U and learned my lesson. Also Nintendo doesn't deserve success anymore.

I'm waiting for more games but do I do intend to get one.

I know Nintendo always struggles with third party support but their first party stuff is generally good and I like the "gimmick" they've gone for this time around.

I look forward to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe since I never got to play that version on the Wii U. Splatoon 2 is going to be a pretty fun experience I bet. Still sad I never experienced the first game though. I might also buy Minecraft for the system since I am a whore to that game. I hope 2K brings over the WWE games to the system with no bullshit like THQ did for the Wii WWE games.

Curious, when you cannot login to the eShop this is because Nintendo is doing maintenance, right?

>Also Nintendo doesn't deserve success anymore.
And why, praytell, don't they deserve success anymore?

...

I'm not sure any time I accessed it it was working
Maybe just reset your password

I got it
No problems so far.

I bought it and love the portability and how fun Zelda is. Metal Slug is kinda weird tho and has these weird lag issues

Not bought it but played on my friends and it was pretty great.

Are there any good games/ third party exclusives confirmed for the console? I think that'd be what sells me on whether it's worth buying or not.

Nintendo consoles are the only ones worth owning since you won't get thier exclusives on PC. Even more so with the Switch since you can play those exclusives anywhere.

I bought it. Not really a Zelda fan but bomberman is pretty fun.

> dock is an hdmi cable and charger
Uhh, no shit, if the console is a portable system and a home console. What were you expecting? Most consoles nowadays only have a hdmi hookup and an av power hookup.

> dock is $100
What? The dock comes with the system and I don't know where you would buy a replacement to be honest.

> dock scratches screen under regular use
I never had this problem. Are you fucking pushing it in quickly? Who the fuck doesn't treat their electronics delicately? Do you scratch your discs too?

> left joycon constantly disconnects
Some report it's the right. So why did this specify a side?

> changing port is underneath the console making the flimsy kickstand near useless
It's actually not. It's at the bottom of the console itself and the kickstand is at the side. What you should be complaining about is the decision to only include the kickstand on one side.

> pay monthly subscription to play online
This is standard in all systems and this isn't really a fault. This just sounds like entitlement now. Didn't Nintendo say online would be cheap at like around $2.49 and below?

> still uses friend codes under paid online service
This isn't the only way of adding friends.

> unable to use same SD card on another Switch without first deleting all game data
Now this sounds bad. I presume this is due to DRM issues, right?

It doesn't allow me to select anything and all of the buttons are greyed out. So far this was my only issue with the console. It still works at times though.

bought it, and I'm really sad that it arrived on Monday instead of Friday cause I want to keep playing Zelda but I have to go to work....

I preordered, but because of launch Bomberman and later Mario Kart with a fixed Battle Mode with offline friends. I couldn't have given less of a shit about Zelda.

I must have been one of the lucky ones. No issues with screen, dock, or Joy-Cons. Still, my heart goes out to anyone who did end up with faulty product.

You are fucking terrible and don't understand a single point of defense you just put out.

>I must have been one of the lucky ones. No issues with screen, dock, or Joy-Cons. Still, my heart goes out to anyone who did end up with faulty product.

user, the switch is ok, Sup Forums is overblowing shit out of proportion, just look at their shitposting threads, the same video over and over showing defects.

Well, I have. I have a PC and a Switch. That's all I need.

I bought it and am enjoy Zelda with no hardware problems at all. The joycons have mediocre joysticks but beyond that I'm happy with the purchase.

I hear the pro controller is 10/10 despite the steep price I'm waiting for them to stock up on em

I won't buy Nintendo shit until they catch up to current gens.

It appears his post riled you up a bit.

It's a bullet I'll sadly have to bite when MK8/Spa2n comes out. That being said the joycons are functional for less fast paced games like Zelda and I can see a fun WarioWare esque game (aka 1-2 Switch but actually good) making great use of the gimmick.

Which is more powerful, the switch or the OUYA?

...

The OUYA was without a doubt a true piece of shit.

that doesn't answer my question

It does. The OUYA being a piece of shit obviously means it is less powerful than the Switch.

1. The fact that it's an HDMI port and a charger into a giant piece of plastic is absolutely horrid. It feels extremely cheap because of it.

2. The dock is $100. Period. Need to replace it or not, they are valuing it at $100. If you need to replace it for whatever reason then pay $100. That's terrible for what it does.

3. Read again. Under. Regular. Use. No carelessness, no excuses. Regular use. Period.

4. So are you saying the right ALSO may have issues? I specified a side because the antenna inside each joycon is different. Easy to spot when you don't even understand your own arguing points.

5. The charging port is still not letting the console stand upright to play it with the kickstand while charging. Gtfo.

6. You can't be serious.

7. No. Only friend codes. The other option is to send an email to a friend with your friend code in it.

8. Come on now. Think about it. Why would anyone do this? No excuse.

I want to get one but I don't want it to get in the way of my school work so I'm going to wait for the summer.

> Read again. Under. Regular. Use. No carelessness, no excuses. Regular use. Period.
So what is regular use then? You don't take care of your shit whenever you want to use it regularly? This shows that your irresponsible.

> So are you saying the right ALSO may have issues? I specified a side because the antenna inside each joycon is different. Easy to spot when you don't even understand your own arguing points.
Keep getting mad because I already won the argument, kiddo.

> The charging port is still not letting the console stand upright to play it with the kickstand while charging. Gtfo.
It's not suppose to stand vertically.

> You can't be serious.
Nice entitlement post. Systems today charge for online play unless you game on PC. It's just how things are.

> No. Only friend codes. The other option is to send an email to a friend with your friend code in it.
Pic related.

> Come on now. Think about it. Why would anyone do this? No excuse.
Well, you can download games straight to the microUSB card, right? If you were to import it into another Switch then this essentially discourages others from buying in the eShop since they'd have the games already on the card. It clearly sounds like this has to do with nasty DRM. So there is an excuse, you may not like it, but that is an excuse.

> Nintendo didn't make a console according to my NEET standards so I am now going to complain about it on an Anonymous message board while discouraging others from enjoying their systems.
Your autism is flaring up.

I got one.

Not a single issue so far. And i've tried testing the Joycon desynching shit, held it behind my back, under some blankets etc. No desynchs at all.

No hardware or software issues.
I think people really need to read the directions that come with the console if they're retarded enough not to match up the plus and minus signs with each other.

> I think people really need to read the directions that come with the console if they're retarded enough not to match up the plus and minus signs with each other.
Do you know the reason why there are also signs on the backs of the joycons? Because I saw that and questioned what their purpose was for.

I bought a Switch. Zelda is pretty fun, but I mostly bought it for the inevitable Monster Hunter. I also owned a WiiU which I played the shit out of MH3U on.

I bought one, here it is running game of the year, BotW baby!!!!

I'll wait for Xenoblade again.

How did you break your console, bud?

>It's not suppose to stand vertically

Apparently it's not suppose to stand horizontally while charging either.

I turned it on.

He means the screen isn't suppose to stand straight up, ya mora. It's suppose to be tilted at an angle.

But didn't you take it apart to do something? Don't lie to me.

I bought one, not the biggest Nintendo fan and I own a PS4 (although I never owned Xbox)

Honestly its an amazing concept and a very good system. Havent had a single problem with it and I have used it for over 50 hours. Zelda is perfect and both Bomberman R and snipperclips are fun multiplayer. RMX is brilliant.

Only wish we had more games in the launch window.If Nintendo release a constant flow of games and no droughts like the Wii U this will sell 50-60 million or more.

I think it will get a lot of Japanese support from the big developers, doubt we will see much Western support outside indies and smaller projects or the usual Activision shovelware.

Look out! We have a bad ass saboteur over here.

>let's talk about the switch guys btw the ps4 sucks lol

Nah man that's all it took, I unboxed it and turned it on, boom, it's THAT easy, Nintendo always makes things so simple.

Bought one on launch. Used 2/3rds of the funds I got from selling off my Wii U and five games (got 350 or so USD). No problems with the system. Joycons feel solid when in handheld mode, no scratches on screen when docking/undocking without a screen protector, never once got a desync even when attempting to replicate it with blankets and other obstructions.

Zelda is fantastic especially the dense in-game systems at work. Framerate is up and down but never fucked up a battle encounter for me. Only other game i have is 1-2-Switch which was a blast at the last house party I threw but I can tell it's shelf life is very short compared to Wii Sports Resort. HD rumble is impressive though.

Yeah he broke his several hundred dollar console just so he could make an epic anonymous troll on 4chins.

God you "people" are fucking delusional.

I own the switch and absolutely love it but I have no fucking clue why you say:

>It's actually not. It's at the bottom of the console itself and the kickstand is at the side. What you should be complaining about is the decision to only include the kickstand on one side.

and

>It's not suppose to stand vertically.

The point he/she is making, is that the charging port is on the bottom of the handheld device. Whilst you have the device set up on a table using the kickstand, you can not play in this position and charge without the need for an additional cost (Nintendo licensed stand or other third party alternatives).

I'm not sure why you mentioned which side the kickstand is positioned as it doesn't matter and I'm also not sure why you mention the console standing vertically?

Don't get me wrong, I disagree with a lot of his/her points but I do agree that it's a bit of a fuckup to advertise this kickstand mode and not allow you to charge it at the same time without the need for a further cost.

That new pro-controller is god-tier and the best controller ive ever used.

I said stop lying to me, bud. I know your kind.

> implying people on Sup Forums aren't capable of spending money to troll or meme
You must be new here.

youtube.com/watch?v=qdC_Cu9X4wc

Damn, you caught me, I straight did this on purpose.
Here's how, I turned on the system, and tried to start the game, I clearly shouldn't have done that.

You seem retarded. He is saying that the screen shouldn't stand vertically when it is suppose to sit at a tilt. And you can charge it while in this mode. I've done it before. Just run the wire beside the console. You should really get your autism checked out and work on your text voice, because your samefag still shows though.

>want a switch
>no stores near me accepting pre-orders
>nobody willing to ship just the console except for eBay scalpers
>gamestop only willing to ship it as a bundle with a bunch of games I don't want
>no stores getting it in stock this week
>no stores willing to backorder it for me

Literally all I want is to play the new Zelda, why is it so difficult to exchange my money for goods and services

Have you not seen the compilation video being spammed around Sup Forums lately about switch hardware failures? Including failures in public presentations? I'm sure they too were epic ruses made for the sole purpose of trolling on 4chainz.

That sucks but you know you are the smallest of minorities right. I had a RROD 360, I know the feeling.

Hope your RMA process goes smoothly. Too bad the Switch is selling like hotcakes and it might take you a bit to get a replacement.

I love mine and so do the two other people I know who own one...they also love Zelda.

Wow pure coincidence people are enjoying it.

I'm sure you aren't old enough to remember this but there would be PLENTY of people that would go to midnight launches just to smash it in front of the crowd for shits and giggles.

I think people are missing the point.

This is Nintendos new handheld.
Not their new console.
Of course it's not going to be as powerful as a PS4 you fucking retards.

> Damn, you caught me, I straight did this on purpose.
Thanks for the confession.
> Here's how, I turned on the system, and tried to start the game, I clearly shouldn't have done that.
Why do you expect anyone to believe you after you confessed to being a liar?

YT:DW

Nice samefag.

>The system is -p-perfect
>he b-b-broke it on p-p-purpose
>No one is having problems at all
Kek so all these people "sabotaged" their systems too? I hope you get paid to try and shill at least.

youtu.be/Cb-srOfRqNc

I got mine at midnight on launch day. Since then I have been playing Breath of the Wild pretty much non stop (sometimes I play Fast RMX to take a break).

In the 4 days I've had it, nothing has gone wrong.

-No desync issue (of course I had the joy-con attached for the day 1 patch)
-No scratches from docking/undocking
-No scratches when I take it out with me (even though I don't have a carrying case yet)
-Joy-cons feel surprisingly comfortable in all configurations despite my ham hands.

The "problems" that keep getting posted are just lies and slander. Seriously though, don't base your opinions on the dumb shit that gets posted here by anti-Nintendo kiddies. Figure out how to try one for yourself to see if you'd like it.

Mine has been playing zelda and going into sleep mode since launch.

No problems, some frame drops in zelda tho.

I have 3 friends with them, no problems for them either.

See > YT:DW

meh, I have money. Bought one for shits and giggles to go with my PC :^)

>being so desperate to defend a broken mess of a system that you make a post on the level of a 6 year old trying to say "heheh, nope nope nope ur wrong"
Man, this is hysterical.

>can't run its own exclusives at 1080p
You mean like the xbox one

>linking crowbcat

This fucking guy.

That's like linking to Nintendo Power for an unbiased opinion.

Well I heard for the last few days not only that Zelda was shit, but the Switch was shit, and wouldn't sell. So you should obviously have no problem finding a Switch.

Those are fallacies obviously. Zelda is amazing. I got to the first boss and popped an erection.

Planning on getting one at some point, but not around launch. I'll wait a month or 2, i guess. IMO, it should've been marketed as a handheld that's able to be used as a home console, rather than the other way around.

Honestly if it wasn't for the Zelda title at launch i wouldn't consider getting one any time soon.

I love how the scratches on the screen in this video clearly look like someone took a key and manually put them there.

Prove it faggot, you're the only one magically gifted enough to figure out this very real design flaw.

>everyone is j-jusy lying
Is this really the best excuses people can come up with? Damn, buyers remorse makes people desperate.

There is NO fucking way the dock scratched the screen like that.

Youd have to make a fucking crazy effort to do that with the dock.

>waaah fuck evidence
so this is the power of drones......

It appears my posts are riling you up.

Google it.

Bought one, works perfectly fine for me. No scratches or nothing so far.

Yup, I'm amped to the tits my man, seeing this kind of defensive posting gives me a hard on.

I've been out of the loop for a while. What exactly is the switch? Is it a game boy that you can plug into your TV? Shouldn't it be considered a competitor to the Vita in that case, not the PS4?

Dear developers:
DO NOT FUCKING PORT PS3 GAMES TO THE SWITCH.
IT IS THE STUPIDIEST IDEA YOU CAN HAVE.

The PS3 CPU is made from the ground up to deliver a very high GFLOP throughput, not only being better than the switch CPU on that, as being a lot better than the PS4 CPU at that.
So the code made for this CPU runs like garbage on both of those systems.
Also you miss out all the vulkan tier GPU optimizations that you absolutely fucking need on the switch.

To correctly make ports to the switch, you get the PS4 codebase, not the PS3, then you downgrade it until it runs fine.

You has been warned.

Owning a PS4, a console most likely to get the higher end games is regrettable to you over a gimmick console? You deserve whatever you get.

Sarcasm is a symptom of the disorder known as autism.

>Google it.

So you're bullshitting.
Carry on.

The PS4 only has high graphical lice (linear interactive computer experiences) not games. You sound like a nugget who needs his hand held through every objective because he's a special little snowflake.

I've been trying to fucking buy a switch for days now. This is shit has been sold out in every store within 10 miles of my apartment, and unless I'm willing to pay 150% more for one I haven't been able to find any to order online either. I should have had faith in nintendo and preordered one.

This is the best shit ever, post more.

Don't taunt me you fucking ghoul gobbler

So you're still madposting and getting upset over silly little Nintendoes.

Diagnosis: Autism
Prescription: Domestos

Unoriginal shtick is unoriginal.

that awoo looks dangerously comfy

tfw no comfy or switch

Nah man, it's a "feature" for sure who wants to play while charging anyway? That's what the hundred dollars dock is for.

You talk about autism and being retarded, yet you're so insecure about your online argument that you're claiming samefagging and you're also claiming to read through someones 'text voice' to make that assumption. How do those backseat bus windows taste bud?

He didn't mention the screen standing vertically for one, there was no mention of the console sitting at any particular angle and it was actually implied the console would be sitting at a tilt. The claim was that when using the kickstand you are unable to use the charging port on the bottom of the console, which is a fact, it's the reason that third party stands that actually lift the console unit up are mostly out of stock.

You haven't actually got a switch have you? I can tell by your claim to being able to charge the unit with the kickstand out. You're just pretending so you can get in on the 'arguments'.

Damn you're a dumb fuck.

A question for people who bought the switch:

Why are you here? Go fucking play Zelda and have fun.

>shtick
Nigger I'm serious as a heart attack, I love reading these types of posts.

Their consoles broke so they can't

this thread is a microcosm of Sup Forums

>handful of people posting about the game/experience
