By LFMartins86 Go To PostInsane but deserved. It’s really an amazing piece of hardware with some all-time classics.
Crazy numbers.
By s y Go To PostI haven't met anyone irl who either has one or has seen mine that wasn't impressed by the hardware. My wife's besties new bf (COD player) had his mind blown when after showing him Mario for 20 minutes I took the switch out of the dock and kept playing.
Might be why it's the fastest selling console of all time...
By Smokey Go To PostWhy does homie have a gun though?
It's shit hardware with great games lol
There's no reason why this thing should look at Bluetooth technology like it came from the moon.

Hardware is more than raw specs and ticking boxes on a list of features, especially to non message board types. The dude from my previous posts exact words were "they got real games for this shit?" He was impressed by the Switch not Odyssey.
As far as the Bluetooth thing that's Nintendo prioritizing being able to connect like 9 controllers at once over other bt devices. I don't care either way but that could theoretically be patched in later.
And post your damn friend code dude. Stop being weird...

lmao
By Smokey Go To PostThis game just lives to blatantly rip off other games, doesn't it?

why is it shit hardware?
By Smokey Go To PostYeah DY post your friend code in 2018Yeah friend codes are dumb and now that Nintendo let's you friend request people that you match up with in game they seem pretty pointless. But I don't get the 2018 thing. Friend codes exist because Nintendos trying to protect kids, it's not an outdated tech thing. Hey at least they're allowing cross play though...

How is it protecting kids
Some kid can just as easily give his friend code out online as his name. Except grown folks have to also deal with the nonsense.
friend codes mean that everyone can have the name they want and change it all the time. less xxXXxXSephirothXxxX699 is always good.
The best console hardware out is the new xbox. Docked, this is ugly by every standard. I feel like I'm missing something each time people prop up BOTW or Mario because I'm pretttty sure we all know the difference between art design and actual power. I've yet to see a 3d game not stutter on this.
Having to come out of pocket to "accessorize" things into being what floats around the norm (controller quality) is something people shouldn't have to tolerate.
I'm still floored at the lack of audio options in general as well. Not even going to address the in game communication stuff. Fortunately I don't have to deal with that.
Is there really some innate need to not criticize a product you own? I can easily clown PSN for being slow or my pro sounding like a blender each time I play Battlefield. The switch is the weakest console out and even if you want to play the "its portable!"to theme you're stuck with the same issues of it not being some true game changer from any other portable system. Portable gaming absolutely existed before the Switch came out. Any time someone uses that to prop up the system I'm forced to recall people bragging about how great the PSP was for allowing them to treadmill and game simultaneously.
I'm not getting the revolution. I understand a great library happening that isn't shackled to the Wii or Wii U though. That makes sense. I really think I'm missing the magic here.

By Mariosalic Go To Postfriend codes mean that everyone can have the name they want and change it all the time. less xxXXxXSephirothXxxX699 is always good.So why not just use a username/screen name like Twitter instead FCs?
The hardware is selling so well because it's new. And cheap. And Mario. And Zelda. And MS suck. And Sony are reaching max saturation at their current price point.
They've had an amazing first year and it's awesome that there are four options across three platforms with games for everyone. The Nintendo IP they've put out in 2017 will be difficult to replicate but stuff like Bayo and Pokemon will help I guess. They're not Zelda and Mario though.

By Mariosalic Go To Postwhat if they tried something completely new?If you're implying that people are buying the system more than previous consoles simply because of its ability to be played on the go, then I don't know how to respond to that. I don't believe any number of answers already provided on this page would convince you otherwise.
By livefromkyoto Go To PostI got some sweet bluetooth earbuds for Christmas.Even though you can't run an explicitly wire-free headset/earphones/etc piece from the PS4, you can still run anything decent enough that's actually set up for operating off of a home theater system. You won't be able to use your typical gym headphones obviously, but you can absolutely use most wireless gear on the market that operates off of a hub or something.

Meanwhile, even docked the switch doesn't recognize anything. Not only that, but the audio options docked are an afterthought as well. As a portable system released in 2017, you kinda can't get around the lack of bluetooth features either.
Fortunately there's like.... nothing I'd play multiplayer on Switch so I can't ever see myself stressed over it, but communications shouldn't be utter nonsense tbh.

I take it that he's hinting at a new IP for 2018 that could sell consoles.

By Red Blaster Go To Postdipro are they bringing back famicom detective clubyes
By Mariosalic Go To Posti meant in 2018Okay, well I guess we'll see then.
Personally, Mario and Zelda are their biggest franchises and nothing else in their portfolio (recent or otherwise) appeals to me, so I can't imagine I'm their customer for whatever new it is they have planned. New Mario Kart with Switch features would be nice or whatever they're doing with Metroid.
I’m only upset that the Switch doesn’t work with my G533 wireless headset, but works with another cheaper Logitech headset. Pure horse shit that.
Other than that, can’t really complain about the system for what I use it for.
If I was a competitive Splatoon player (is that even a real thing?) I’d be pissed with how the phone app/voice chat thing works.

i mean hey, maybe the new smash is actually good and not something everyone has to become a zealot to defend all the way to evo
I'll be happy with a metroid and star fox that doesn't suck. I've already accepted that Fire Emblem is nothing but trash waifu wars now. i should be okay.

Smash is garbage. Always has been. God I hated playing that shit on the N64 with my cousins.
By Mariosalic Go To PostSaleswise neither 3d mario nor zelda have been the biggest sellers in years.Uh oh, Switch Fit! is Nintendo's killer 2018 app.
Switch buyers are 20-30 yo males.
If they want to go big(ger), they need to appeal to people that aren't us.

smash as a fighting game was cute at first but people are crazy and we can't have nice things

No.
By s y Go To PostI mean, you gotta imagine that if you time traveled from 1980 and the first piece of hardware someone handed you was a Switch? Then yes, it would be amazing. Context, bro.
By Mariosalic Go To PostNo.its as much of a competitive fighter as splatoon is a competitive shooter
By DY_nasty Go To Postits as much of a competitive fighter as splatoon is a competitive shooter
I meant the second part of your sentence.
By DY_nasty Go To Postits as much of a competitive fighter as splatoon is a competitive shooterHes talking about the demographic part
Also "smash is not a competitive fighter" is a dumb opinion when its by far the most popular conpetitive fighter.
