January 14, 20179 yr Looks interesting but the list of games is underwhelming. I'm ready for a Realistic Zelda, a new pilot wings, and a new rogue squadron. I think Nintendo really needs to go for nostalgia and offer the older games like they have been doing. They also have to really go for the mature audience as well. They can't afford to cater to one audience. I feel this is there last big shot in the console market. If they bomb this console, they should really think about becoming software only.
January 14, 20179 yr Author Nintendo could say fuck hardware and only release games and charge $99 each. Reason is people buy their console just to play certain games. So price the most revenue into the games and reach a wider audience on better hardware. This makes sense
January 14, 20179 yr Author Still hoping he gets you those ASG tickets huh? Quiet, don't give away my plans
January 15, 20179 yr Mario in the city just looks strange. I like the premise of the console, but man there's barely any games for the thing.
January 15, 20179 yr Author I pre-ordered it so I could decide over the next month or so in case it sells out. Not sure if I will cancel it yet.
January 15, 20179 yr I pre-ordered it so I could decide over the next month or so in case it sells out. Not sure if I will cancel it yet. I tried to do that, but by the morning it was gone.
January 15, 20179 yr Really hoping some of those games demoed during the press conference aren't 60 bucks as well. I don't think the 1-2 switch or the Arms one is really going to be worth that.
January 15, 20179 yr Nintendo hasn't made a relevant console since the N64, for enteraintment purposes I think a ps4 is money better spent. Nostalgia is the only thing keeping Nintendo alive. Everyone wants a relevant Nintendo console and a return to its glory days, its just not coming back. Developers would rather sell on the much more profitable XBOX and PS platforms because they'll reach a wider audience and can be ported easily. THe days of first person shooter and RPG's being introduced soley on the nintendo are long gone. If your going to invest so much into a game, you want to maximize its audience.
January 15, 20179 yr Author I think a ps4 is money better spent. I already have a PS4, I think the Switch is a better purchase than a 2nd PS4 for me
January 15, 20179 yr I already have a PS4, I think the Switch is a better purchase than a 2nd PS4 for me True, lol. What about the VR headset? I feel like the Nintendo Bi would have sold millions to the LGBT community.
January 16, 20179 yr I'm a Nintendo fanboy, so I pre-ordered one. The lack of launch games and pricing of the accessories is disappointing though.
January 16, 20179 yr Author I'm out of the loop. Has Nintendo even been relevant since the year 2000?
January 16, 20179 yr Author I'm out of the loop. Has Nintendo even been relevant since the year 2000? Not really
January 16, 20179 yr Author I feel like the last time I used a Nintendo product was circa 1999. Game library was probably the same. Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong
January 16, 20179 yr Not really I think the portable handheld DS/3DS were the quiet successes of Nintendo over the past several years. There's a zillion games and the systems are inexpensive and don't break.
January 18, 20179 yr graphics looks the same as the N64 when it was a wow factor point for Nintendo. I rather play my original game boy
January 18, 20179 yr I'm out of the loop. Has Nintendo even been relevant since the year 2000? Only relevant gaming they've had are the Pokemon Series of games and the Gameboy and GameBoy Advance and GameBoy DS products. Thats their niche but they need to start making app based games for phones or their flagship console (HandHeld Gaming) is going to go out the window too.
January 18, 20179 yr poor nintendo...there are some great games for the Wii U but overall what a disaster
