>In short, it means that the Switch has gained enough sales momentum to likely give confidence to Japanese third-party publishers to further invest in the platform. Considering that Japanese games still sell globally, this in turn means that the Switch’s gaming library will no doubt increase in the coming months. With new projects announced off the back off of these launch sales.
Aside from Zelda, I'm only seeing Android games on the Switch right now.
Where's Mario Kart? Where's Super Smash Bros? Street Fighter, Tekken, Metroids
Right now it's not worth it to buy this console unless you really want to play Breath of the Wild.. and even then, the game works fine on Wii U so if you're a Nintendo person you probably have a WiiU already
So.. if sales are any indication of a Console's success, I'm not seeing it in the games yet

>blizard just said overwatch probably wont be coming to the switch nintendo isnt even an option to most aaa devs also fuck off to with your broken down fisherprice shit
Cameron Turner
It's happening!!!!
2005 - Apple steals BSD
2006 - Sony steals BSD
2013 - Sony steals BSD
2017 - Nintendo steals BSD!!!!!!!
Oh wait, it isn't happening because none of these companies are ever going to give anything back
"yoooo more ppl stealing it means we win :))))"
Kill your are self.
Brayden Harris
still doesn't change the fact that the hardware is shit.
Nope. Doesn't run BSD. If you look at it it doesn't look like BSD at all. It's still various services doing things and some syscalls. It's similar to the 3DS's microkernel OS.
Mason Sullivan
Haha, cool story man but HOW DO I FUCKING BUY ONE SINCE IT'S ALWAYS SOLD OUT?
Dylan Barnes
It just uses the TCP stack from BSD, it's has nothing else from BSD

It's awful enough to be seen with a 3ds in public, let alone a fucking switch
Liam Cook
Nintoddlers are cancer, it's no wonder the ones who aren't children are lonely forever virgins. Concentrate on your own improving lives instead of living vicariously through some nip company who wants to sell you the same game fifty times t. PC master race
Nolan Fisher
Isn't it a piece of trash?
I would tell you to fuck off to Sup Forums but hey, you know, I would be happy for them if they actually put devs into their sack for -once-, they haven't done it properly in a fucking decade. What that little piece of shit needs is dev support to counter the fact that it's underpowered hardware, and probably a price drop as well because that thing is damn expensive for what it is.

Oliver Flores
Checkmate Linuxfags, FreeBSD has drivers!
William Lee
I don't really play games, and those girls are all laughing at you, if you really interacted with women you'd know they have no interests with men who play children's games and yes whether you like it or not women generally differentiate between the kiddie games and the dudebro games Sorry to burst your bubble
People have been saying that here before r.eddit was a thing, you need to go back there newfag

Alexander Thompson
Never been there
Exactly the types who play Nintendo games, apart from actual kids Seriously, women don't like autists playing kid's games, real gamer girls are usually ugly and have poor hygiene
John Fisher

Jayden Bailey
Question time: Which one of the guys on pic related are more likely to get laid?
Christopher Lee
Somehow R manages to be more cancerous than Sup Forums, probably because of karma whoring. I'm horribly addicted to it even though I've grown to despise most of the community.
As for those "ugly" gamer girls, I actually have a thing for them. ;)
ANYWAY, to get this back on fucking topic, has anyone managed to run homebrew on the Switch yet? It's based around a Tegra so it shouldn't be too hard to do.
Connor Allen
>I have a thing for ugly women cool
Kevin Walker

Well memed. Enjoy your mature games for mature people.

Matthew Davis
All I know about that place is they provide lots of info and streams etc, I see them posted here all the time, and lets face it Sup Forums wouldn't help you if you're drowning. I'd check it out based on that alone but I don't want to deal with more circlejerks Just don't kid yourself into believing the loner gamer girl types are any more virtuous than the aaverage girl. They're far easier and more desperate to get laid, not what I'd recommend for a long relationship. As long as you know that then enjoy, hate seeing guys tied down to women like that
It's reality, you can deny it all you want but it's the truth. I hope you're a teen, don't even mean it in a bad way. Women have little interest in men with those hobbies, even worse when it's kiddie stuff I know a guy, he's been searching for his "waifu" since he was a teen, he works as a developer and is a typical nintard. Lets just say in the real world women don't go for that sort of thing, but nothing snaps him out of it
Aiden Murphy
>It's reality, you can deny
Meanwhile in the real world
>sweaty obese pc gamer is forced to play alone in his bedroom at home
This is the only PC gamer reality
Evan Cooper
That's basically the same thing.
James Russell
You're quite desperate to defend PC gaming after being BTFO. Girls love mobile gaming and HATE PC anything.
Have you seen the fan base for the Nintendo DS and 3DS? Half are girls.
Go sit in your dark lonely corner playing DOTA2 against 12 year olds.
Jackson Howard
Long term relationships? Fuck those. I don't ever want to be tied down.
Mason James
>Being this triggered over kidtendo I don't give a fuck about video games, but you clearly do, even your mom is just pretending she's interested
Jacob Gonzalez
See Girls like candy crush and phone games, stop pretending you interact with women on anything more than a friend level Being this defensive over a nip video game company should be a clear sign you're ill
Brandon Bell
You realize that most of those girls are also around 12 years old, do you?
Asher Thompson
Sooner or later you will be, it's natural Find yourself a good girl when you're older and know that a lot of shut in girls have serious issues, if faithful is what you want a lot of those girls are easily swayed into fucking even they're married, gamer girls are generally to be avoided
Elijah Martin
100% false
Nathan Jackson

Wew lad, you really made a point, my dude. The girl on the right even has cuts on her arm, makes this even funnier.
Parker Rodriguez
I have serious issues too. Why else would I be posting here at the ass crack of dawn on a Sunday?
Carson Thomas
I'm sure this will come back to benefit you guys in the BSD community. I'm sure Nintendo will upstream some sour- Oh wait no they won't because you retards let them just take your code with no commitment to make upstream better.
Sony sure upstreamed a lot of stuff from the PS3 and PS4, didn't they?
Good job retards.
Caleb Torres
Switch doesn't fucking run BSD you goddamn retard.
Dominic Foster
LMAO Best part is he has all this saved on his computer because he's constantly having to defend his Nintendo shilling
Eli Walker
Man why do americans gobble Nintendo garbage this much?
Evan Long
>hahaha just kidding
Full fox and the grapes damage control mode
Luke Morgan
I live in Luxembourg and it's sold out everywhere here.
Ryder Hernandez
The NES' triumph over the crash of 83/84 had long-term implications. It made Nintendo practically synonymous with video games here. Meanwhile, Japan never really went through a crash, and Europe had a stronger home computer gaming scene.
Gavin Gomez
>fox and the grapes The Nintendo isn't made out of unobtanium. It's 350 euros and half a week of shipping away from my door if I want it.
Jaxon Evans
i would think Sup Forums would be hype as shit for this thing to get hacked.
Camden Bell
>If I accuse them of damage control they won't notice that I'm in damage control.
Joshua Brown
Nintendo probably shipped 3 units to your countrylet
Isaiah Jones
Why? It's just a tablet with shitty battery life and a controller.
Samuel Phillips
Aside from piracy what exactly is the benefit of hacking a console in this day and age?
Connor Richardson
> sour grapes switch.jpg > 310,08 € > costs as much as three T420 chinkpads > sour grapes Step up your game.
Alexander Morales
The battery's pretty good when it isn't running full fledged console games and even then it still lasts over 2.5 hours.
Asher Foster
Emulators, customization, homebrew, stuff like that.
Joseph Morales
More Nintendo IPs will come to the Switch in good time. They've more or less been planning to not do everything all at once, so as to keep people interested.
>steals BSD They original BSD is still available for use. Nothing was ever "stolen."
I've seen plenty of people in public with 3DSs, including quite a few women. There's nothing wrong with it. Quit being a major autist and judging people for having different tastes than you. In the real world, nobody gives a fuck.
Daniel Ortiz
> not willing to run Linux on everything that have a CPU Get out.
Connor Price
>Emulators Mostly this. Playing SNES games on my Wii is comfy.
Kevin Harris
Who cares about all this stuff? There are probably dozens of systems better suited for emulation than a flimsy tablet with no dpad and shitty battery life.
Homebrew is also a joke, wow I can't wait for the millionth doom port.
Colton Hughes
I care. I don't like locked down hardware.
Austin Young
the buttons on the joy cons are just as good ad a D-Pad pretty much
Oliver Johnson
>mature games for mature gamers
Liam Bailey
The Switch is just a shittier Nvidia Shield, go buy that instead and have fun
Aiden Edwards
I'm pretty sure it's better than the Shield though
Parker Myers
Nvidia shield is inferior in every way.
Firstly it runs Android while the Switch runs BSD. Secondly the Switch has exclusive AAA games while the Shield has shitty Android mobile games only. Thirdly the Switch hardware will be updated every year with the latest Nvidia chips like the iPhone gets upgraded yearly.
Connor Wright
Shield can't play Breath of the Wild or Skyrim, unless somehow someone manages to hack Nintendo's OS onto one.
Jayden Gutierrez
>damage control Are you retarded? You're btfo yourself with every post, proving you're a manchild LOL the tripfag agrees with you, no surprise there
Julian Myers
It's the same hardware, someone will inevitably put freebsd on it (which is what the switch runs)
Aaron Parker
The switch is using BSD kernels but the people in the scene say it's a modified version of the 3DS OS
In any case I don't see any reason to be be excited for the hacking of this device. There are so many things, cheaper things even, that can already do all that shit out of the box. I guess if you still like Nintendo games and want to pirate them it's fine. Maybe I'm just too old for this shit.
Jack Green
>Thirdly the Switch hardware will be updated every year with the latest Nvidia chips like the iPhone gets upgraded yearly. Did they say this anywhere? Interesting if true.
Also did the switch end up running on Vulkan, having Japanese game devs all using Vulkan will help adoption.
Jayden Adams
>full fledged console games
You mean android tablet games?
Anthony Adams
I'll be honest, I'd be willing to get a Shield if I didn't have a hate boner for Nvidia. Maybe I should buy one used.
Zachary Gomez
It would be a pretty good All-in-one. It plays official Nintendo games yet when hacked, it dual boots Android (Shield ROM) for all your Emulation and App needs.
Juan Rogers
>implying i want their shitty non-free code anyway
Realistically, what you'd get out of them if they practiced straight up copylefting is drivers for the specific set of hardware, and their DRM scheme (Which is obviously why they went BSD and not GPLx)
Really the biggest advantage we'd see is that we'd see hacks and homebrew on the system faster and better than before.
>steals BSD Says it's okay and they credit everything they use. fuck off stallman
