Unless you really wanna replay BotW over and over there is no reason to buy a Switch right now. Just gonna get one during the holidays, you know assuming Nintendo stops doing there low quantity bullshit.
Dylan Parker
Won't they just add the virtual console to the shop after games get ported?
Austin Howard
>old ass webm from some of the first gameplay reveals of the game Why do people do this?
Blake Thomas
Nah, they're waiting to sell the nes and snes classics first, THEN gie a switch a virtual console
Just needed a Nintendo thing for the thread, meant nothing by it
Owen Cox
>pop in zelda.webm >obviously meant to inflame people into getting into arguments about the switch's graphical power >meant nothing by it Okay buddy.
Nathan Williams
Relax. We can all see it's old ass E3 footage.
Isaac Wright
Its the Wii U version at e3 dude, calm down
Kayden Ross
>no disc player >this is a bad thing for a handheld
Jackson Carter
The switch isn't a handheld.
Or rather, it shouldn't be.
Nathan Green
Why can't the PS4 play UHD Blu Ray discs?
Oliver Reyes
So I guess the dock was never meant to be anything more than a glorified hdmi cable. Good to know.
Colton Moore
>Or rather, it shouldn't be.
Eli Gomez
Glad you understand.
Nicholas Edwards
Poor sony fan, he forgot consoles are meant to play games, not movies.
Charles Gutierrez
Not that Sony fan but to bad then, The Switch will have the same old Mario, Zelda games and maybe a Metroid or Icarus Kid game thrown into the mix with barely any third party.
Julian Scott
>third party
which one? Japanese or western? Western can fuck off, because I donĀ“t need their 3 Games.
Levi Gomez
>play disc game >undock switch >
Ayden Perez
I don't give a rat's ass about any of those, I have a PC. I fucking hate that Sony has turned every console into a "multimedia platform". IT'S ABOUT THE VIDEO GAMES NIGGER. VIDEO GAMES.
Aaron Rivera
To be fair the final release has atrocious pop-in too. But that's unfortunately pretty common for open world games.
Xavier Brooks
>wanting to check your email and type up a resume on your games console I'm happy my switch doesn't try to be anything but a videogame player. I bought it for videogames, after all. The PS4 and especially the Xboner are weighed down by all the extra shit they try to do.
Andrew Russell
All of that is coming once they launch the actual online. A lot of people seem unaware that the Switch's online system/full OS hasn't launched yet.
Ayden Gray
You think their handheld hybrid will have anything worth a while at all? I don't buy handheld shit. What third party makes games for Nintendo in Japan? Square-enix? From Software? Maybe a third tier student project.
Ironic when a PC is a multimedia platform if anything and the consoles can just try to be one and cry when they fail at it.
Logan Gray
>Unless you really wanna replay BotW over and over there is no reason to buy a Switch right now
If you own a wii u, it doesn't even have Zelda going for it. It's sad to see how little nintendo cares about those who supported it in the past.
Sebastian Rivera
It actually doesn't though. It has pop in but nowhere near like in that webm and never at that close of a distance.
Joshua Sullivan
Oh thank god, I thought I was alone in this way of thinking.
Gavin Price
Aren't you the one crying?
Carter Foster
I mean it's been a while since I played the game but it was really bad. Not sure if there's a difference between the Wii U and Switch versions in that regard.
Charles Long
Who needs or wants any of these things though?
Michael Reed
so much this.
Cooper Morales
Atlus Capcom. They lit a fire under Konami. Amd who ever is doing blood stained. In the west EA and ubisoft have games in the pipeline.
Not to mention of it runs unreal 4 it will work on the switch
Isaac Moore
this the OS is god tier
Chase Wood
I'm not even a Nintendo fan, I basically bought the switch Day 1 because A) I had a chance to and B) No More Heroes 3, Splatoon 2 was just a bonus (and every day is hell waiting for it).
I don't get the autistic hatred for it. It has no games? It's a new console, it'll have Arms, Xenoblade 2, Splatoon 2, and Mario Odyssey by the end of the year and this thing launched in March. Doesn't have multimedia features? It'll get them. It shouldn't be a handheld? Well clearly you haven't experienced how easy and fun it is to pull it off the dock and continue playing, and vice-versa. Nintendo hit a home run with the console design, save some of the stupid quirks like putting the fucking JoyCon straps on backwards WHY IS THIS A THING?
Nathan Morgan
BotW webm thread? botw webm thread
Jayden Murphy
its not even the switch version of the game

Isaac James
The game still has some crazy pop in at points. I remember within my first hour of the game I went to walk over what I thought was a stump and a fucking tree appeared in front of my face 5 feet away. I have yet to encounter anything that bad since though, thankfully.
Juan Scott
>left controller has a weak bluetooth signal >the dock sucks I guess it's worse than that exploding phone from last year, yeah
Jaxson Thompson
It just came out you fucking door knob. People need to stop using this as a defense. It's like if you went and bought a belt for some slacks that are on the way via delivery and when you talk about how nice it is the response to the belt is "but you don't even have slacks yet why'd you buy the belt."
Aaron Long
Who the fuck buys a console for any of those things?
Landon Gomez
...
Henry Ward
I played on Switch if that means anything. Never had pop in at as close of a distance as that webm.
Hunter Nelson
So are we not gonna talk about what happens if you ride a horse onto that stump with the flame sword on it in Hyrule field? (The enemies literally pop in next to you)
Or how enemies only appear on the gigantic skull soaked in goop when you're on it, so they all spot you and instantly try smack you off
Lincoln Gomez
Post more speed run webms
Noah Bennett
It's borderline impossible on Wii U, I had to just give up. The motion controls are fucked. Good old nintendo, making people wait an entire gen for a zelda game, then giving fans a half assed port unless they buy the new console. Switch will be the first nintendo console I'm not buying. Fuck this company.
Henry Flores
It really is amazing, isn't it? For the first time in console history, Nintendo has actually managed to sell idiots a console that has less features than its predecessor... and these shitbirds just lap it up. Tell me, how does Nintendo's shit taste? Is it salty?
Nathan Cruz
I am impressed with how shitty the gray hazy overlay makes everything look. What in the fuck were they thinking?
Luis Bell
Is there any combat in this game that doesn't make enemies look retarded as fuck?
Aaron Cook

Ryan Lopez
>The PS4 and especially the Xboner are weighed down by all the extra shit they try to do. Care to explain this shit you pulled out of your ass? Are you saying that adding a browser somehow makes device worse at being a game console?
Austin Ramirez
This shrine isn't hard though? I don't get why everyone complains about it.
Jeremiah Bennett
These are the same people hyped for a 3 year old Mario Kart game, a tetris game, and shovelware shit like ARMS. They are simply to autistic to ever realize how shit nintendo has become.
Ethan Jenkins
just flip the controller over
Brandon Wilson
That shrine was a fucking nightmare in handheld mode.
Dylan Sanders
Absolutely, the UI on both consoles is a fucking disaster. Every time my PS4 starts it tries to get me to sign up for its shitty Facebook clone and the Xboner is designed for M+KB.
Michael Jenkins
...
Kevin Evans
>less features than its predecessor
Having less gimmicks is a good thing user.
Caleb Ward
It doesn't, but it's unnecessary. If I wanted a browser, I'd walk five feet over to my computer instead.
Chase Lopez
The backwards joycon strap thing seems to be because they wanted the straps to work with either joycon. Guess they could have made the plus and minus signs stand out more though.
Adrian Moore
The Wii U version was ported to Switch, not the other way around
Eli Rogers
>For the first time in console history
Sony does it all the time though.
Eli Williams
>a game console is treating games like they are the important factor and not movie shit Fuck off Microsoft ruined vidya when they allowed movies to be streamed on the 360
Colton Reyes
It's like that when it's about to rain. Look at the clouds.
John Russell
Hahahaha, you are a delusional retard my man. "Weighed down"? What are you smoking, holy fuck. Both the PS4 and X1 are vastly more powerful than this piece of shit, you make it sound like the ability to play Netflix and look up a walkthrough on your console is somehow making it slower or less useful. Way to skew the facts in a sad attempt to defend your faggot console. There is no excuse for omitting standard features like a basic browser, you cannot seriously be stupid enough to believe this, can you?
Samuel Anderson
The game doesn't really look like that in real life. The weather of the game is constantly changing and sometimes it is really foggy, sometimes not at all, and sometimes sort of. It's really easy to notice. You're also looking at a shitty, low-res, compressed webm and not the actual screen. The game has impressive graphics for being on a handheld.
Nathan Myers
Is it me or is that sky ceiling different from the final game?
Maybe that's one of the things they downscaled to reduce the popup.
Leo Martin
>getting this mad The UI on both consoles sucks and the PS4 has an entire cpu core dedicated to it when it could be used to stop the games from running so poorly
Chase Reed
>It's a game console! Why would you buy a game console to play games?!

>Having less gimmicks is a good thing user. LOL next you're going to tell me that online capabilities are a gimmick.
Miiverse is a gimmick. A web browser, apps, download play, etc... these are standard features that should be included in every console.
The games don't run poorly and the PS4 UI is fucking lightyears ahead of the Switch whose UI literally looks like Windows Phone. You want to see a game run poorly? Play BotW on the Switch. Fucking sub-30fps with 2007 graphics, absolutely pathetic.
Mason Wilson
>hurr but I use my underpowered tablet for GAMES ONLY! Useful features are for casuals!!
Jayden Jenkins
Why are you getting so uppity about needless functionalities?

sometimes mashing attack doesn't work sadly
Eli Anderson
The entire point of owning a Switch is convience. You don't need both a handheld and a console, you have a Switch! Right? How fucking convenient is it to constantly toggle between a game console and a PC/media device every time I want to, say, watch Netflix? It isn't fucking convenient. Don't try and act like nobody uses these features, there are literally millions of people who use consoles to watch Netflix and YouTube alone. Omitting these features is fucking pathetic and you know it.
Mason Wright
Are you telling me you're actually impressed by an absence of stunlock?
Sebastian Lee
Why can't the PC play UHD Blu Ray discs?
Brandon Lee
Well obviously that's why you put the CD player IN THE SWITCH.
Julian Parker
I bought a Switch and I don't have a PC, a PS3, a PS4, an Xbox 360, an Xbox One, a Wii U, a phone, a tablet, a 3DS or a Vita so what the fuck am I supposed to use to get on the internet? Fuck you Nintendo!
Nathan Clark
...
Liam Rodriguez
So, in other words, it's okay for the Switch to omit standard features like Netflix and an internet browser because most people already own another console that can do it.
Lol. Just, lol.
Jayden Kelly
>another console
You mean PC.
Jacob Rogers
As somebody who got a PS4 a year ago, I really don't know why you're knocking the switch so hard. Only recently has the PS4 gotten any good games, and even they don't run all that well. My favorite ps4 games are Bloodborne and Nier Automata and they have their hiccups. Digimon got boring real fast, same with Overwatch, and both Nioh and Dark Souls got fairly old quickly.
My friend reviews games so he got the "new" mario kart recently and it's a lot of fun. Breath of The Wild was also really enjoyable too and I really don't notice any particular hiccups that ruin the game. Then again, I liked Bloodborne. I'm not an autist that can only play games at 60 fps or I think the game is dogshit like you.
P.S. The UI of both consoles are basic and easy to understand. The only one that's even vaguely difficult to understand is the Xbox One.
Daniel Cooper
>it's okay for the Switch to omit standard features like Netflix and an internet browser because most people already own another console that can do it Absolutely. I'm glad we're on the same page.
Joshua Torres
Oh, of course not I was just requested to show the enemies being not retarded. Dunno why it makes me remember that I was a poise fag in the original dark souls.
Here, enemies catching the weapon you throw to them mid air.
Luis Roberts
>Netflix and Internet Browser >Standard features Holy shit we ARE spoiled by today's technology.
