Relax, shills; I'll get the zelda game in a few months when the cheap used consoles start hitting the market
Owen Sanchez
Of course you shouldn't buy a console at release. You buy a console once it has a proven list of games that dilutes the cost of the hardware per game. People buying consoles at launch are fucking retarded.
That said: Do you have any other gaming systems?
Jacob Sanders
>That said: Do you have any other gaming systems? None that are really comparable
I have a workstation PC but I can pretty much only use it for indie games

Yeah, that's what I thought.
Brayden Scott
Well, you could try giving the PC a $150 kick in the form of a GPU, that'd open a good library per dollar.
Otherwise, yes, go with the ps4 for now, and hold back the switch until it has a better library. But don't expect actual 4k. In games where it's possible, rather gun for 1080p/60fps, because that'll give much better results at living room scale.

Instead of building a dedicated windows gaming box I'd rather buy a console first
Cooper Martin
Meant Dragon Quest Builders instead of Heroes

Normalfags need their Pokémon. And Japanese need their handheld gaming.
And don't forget Nintendo cultists: they ONLY play Nintendo games no matter what.

Benjamin Campbell
>Listing inferior products instead of just playing GOTD Poor life choices.
Eli Kelly
Ah, right. That kind of workstation. Go with the ps4 then. It's a modest library as far as exclusives go, but without a PC, the multiplats can carry it.
Angel Gray
Adding some of my own research results: >Can you crack it and download all the games for free? Apparently you can crack the older versions but not the newer firmware, which newer games require. So in practice, I can't
>Can you plug in a mouse and keyboard for first person games? It lets you plug them in but apparently barely any game supports it, since the game developers need to implement support for it themselves
Zachary Cruz
It's been a week and the switch hasn't even sold 1 million units worldwide yet (PS4 did it in less than 24 hours, Xbone in 48 hours).
Shit's a flop. Nintendo is going to have to rush pokemon, monster hunter and youkai watch in Japan and Mario, Splatoon and Smash in the west just to match wiiu sales.
In two years maximum nintendo will drop out of the hardware business and everybody else will be playing zelda on their preferred platforms. Thanks for betatesting cucks
Andrew Young
>It's been a week and the switch hasn't even sold 1 million units worldwide yet Because they're all fucking sold out, stupid artificially limited supply
Leo Green
Get Nioh. Its amazing on PS4 Pro
Bentley Parker
Fair enough. It's one of the highest-rated as well
I'll just get Horizon, Nioh and Nier at launch and borrow The Last of Us from a friend.
Camden Campbell
You know, i've been watching some gameplay and i've tried a bunch of the previous Zelda games and i must say... I just don't get it. They are all mediocre and shallow. They do have some charm, but they are objectively not good games.
The only reason for all the good reviews is the fact that everyone who praises BotW is either
A: some faggot who grew up with the franchise and is desperate to relive their childhood and are therefore completely blinded by nostalgia or
B: Someone who got swept up in the hype and just plays along.
There can be no other explanation. I feel like an outsider, somehow nintendo is the darling of the industry when they pull more consumer unfriendly practices out of their corrupt assholes than fucking ubisoft but that doesn't matter because they used to make good games and systems in the past.
It's like those fucking japs are using ancient mind control magic on the world and i'm one of the few who is immune to their nipjew spells.

If I search for ““ on geizhals I find multiple versions of the game, e.g. (german), (english) and (polish), with a different price.
If I buy the german version (cheapest), can I still play it in english? Or how does that work?
Nicholas Evans
If he has tv witch 1k up motion refresh rate and feature like motionflow from sony or truemotion from lg, then they will look as smooth as 60fps, so he wont have to bother with "cinematic experience"

it doesn't matter man. you have to be a pretty big faggot to care about one system or platform enough to make a post like this. of course this is what Sup Forums clings to. it's sad. most people have more than one platform to play games anyway. fuckking losers man

Bentley Morris
I'm worried because I live in germany and am afraid that if I get the english version I'll be unable to play it on a german console, but if I get the german version I'd be unable to play it in english
I'll just try it out, I guess. I only mentioned the price because it leads me to believe they might be region-locked.
Because I never leave the house; why would I care about it being a tablet?
I'm a poor student, my budget isn't infinite. I don't give a shit about brand loyalty but I can only afford one console right now
Christian Sullivan
3D Zeldas have always been kinda shallow.
They are great games with often good artstyle but the setting is just not engaging.
Some mechanically less functional games like Sacrifice and Anachronox are many times more fun because they can just do what the fuck they want instead of trying to pander to casuals without imagination.
Josiah Evans
That's the difference between a stationary and a mobile device.

It's also more expensive and has access to none of the PS-exclusives I've been wanting to play for a while now

those choices are all strange and the prices are wrong.
no one should be buying a 23" 1080p 60hz monitor that is that expensive. You can get a 144hz 1440 monitor for that.

Angel Howard

What? For fucking years now everything needs DX11.
I don't think PS4 exclusives are worth it considering everything you listed but Bloodborne and Yakuza is meh, and Nier is multiplat. The reality is that regardless of what you buy, you're gonna end up occupying most of your time with multiplats.
Legit opinion, if you're happy with your current PC's abilities I'd buy a Switch instead. If exclusives are what you want, Nintendo is the best company in that regard, their only problem being the lack of multiplats which is what you'd use your PC for.
>Also SSD in "midrange" It's 2017, Pajeet. SSD reached low end in first world. >100 DOLLAR SLOW RAM It's the fastest RAM currently in manufacturing. Overclocked RAM is a waste of money in a midrange configuration. >50 DOLLAR CD player >100 DOLLAR win 10 Less than 10 % of the total. >80 Dollar shit tier M&KB >It doesn't have RGB LEDs, it shit!

Why do you lie on the internet, lad? Switch is the best launch ever, better than ps2, 3, 4 and Wii. It's alright, you were wrong, it happens. Just walk it off my man.

well maybe if youre doing some shit degree like art and literature sure, but when i was in my 3rd year between group projects, study and work i had no time. sure the 4th year which was a research year gave me more time to do stuff but i woulndt be wasting the very little free time i had gaming.
Nicholas Rivera
semantics, a disc drive, what ever you wanna call it they're practically synonymous for all intents and purposes
are you really so autistic because someone didn't refer to your special blu-ray drive by its explicit brand, name and model number?

OP here, I actually work while studying too.
I have all the time in the world since you can study for up to 11 semesters with no penalty, and I'm working part-time as a linux sysadmin for our IT infrastructure. (I work one day a week for 400 per month)
So that's like one day per week of work, plus a few days at the end of the semester actually learning whatever crap they want me to learn.
Life's good
