Nintendo are like the lazy stoner of consoles, every now and then they do something pretty decent, then waste it all by sitting back and getting mashed and doing **** all for the rest of the year.

Seriously Nintendo FUCKING PUT SOME EFFORT IN FOR ONCE. Good launch sales and one decent game is not going to make Switch successful, it will stutter out and die without some massive pushing on your part.

They still seem more interested in their DS range tbh.

@Gbullet:

I've still played and enjoyed games before that have scored around 5, sometimes if you're a fan of a series or certain type of game you can happily look past flaws and still enjoy it for what it is.

Cool. Now reduce the price by 2/3rds and you've got yourself a deal.

@doubtless1:

ofc neither is Diablo 2. What a steaming pile of blocky point and click dog shite that game was.

VR still a thing! watched some porn, went on a rollercoaster, I'm out.

I remember Wonderboy games being "the" game to play when I was a kid at primary school, back when master system had built in games, but I never got to own one.

Thing is, if you ask me, this is still over priced. Switch games need to be priced comparatively to other hand helds and this should be about £8. I'd buy it for that but it doesn't offer enough gameplay for nearly £20, I can buy a full blown ps4 game on sale for that price.

Nintendo giveth with one hand

and taketh with the other.

To get the most out of this I'd need a 4k TV as well so I'd rather buy a p.c as I haven't owned a decent gaming p.c for years and that way at least I could play games I can't already play in a PS4 anyway.

I loved my 360 but my ONE has just languished gathering dust and playing movies in the bedroom for years now, better graphics is not going to change that fact.

But then I wouldn't buy a PRO either, not when the games are the same. I guess I'm just not the target audience for these "revisions", wake me up when the PS5 comes out.

@zerohournow:

Monster Hunter Tri, Xenoblade Chronicles, Rune Factory Frontier. Not much I grant you but quality titles I'm glad I played regardless and my kids got their money worth in family games. Nintendo aren't aiming at the hard-core single player gamer, they are aiming at the family couch gamers yet still throw out unmissable classics for those who own their consoles.

They create the perfect second console.

It's going to be a great handheld once the games library starts to take over from 3DS, we've never seen a game of the scope of BoTW on a handheld before and couple that with the ability to play on your TV in 1080p as well we could be looking at the most successful handheld console ever.

As long as Nintendo realise that this needs games, badly. Start shifting focus from 3DS onto switch and get that library growing or risk losing all momentum and stalling after the first year.

Hopefully the large sales numbers will kick start developers interest into developing for it but it's still going to be tough because you can't simply port PS4 games over due to it being underpowered for console games.

It needs Vita/3DS developers to move over and then take advantage of the massive power upgrade, not console developers who will struggle with the power downgrade and give up.

With Scorpio just around the corner and 3DS reaching a ripe old age Nintendo need to forget hybrid ideas and concentrate on super powered handheld with HDMI output, there's little competition in the handheld space, too much in the home console space.

Don't spread yourself too thin Nintendo, concentrate on where you're strongest.
