And that was an example of many things that show that they launched it before it's really ready, just look at the OS and how bare bones it is. You don't think it'll have a much needed a big OS update before the holiday season? The rushed decisions on some of the hardware problems like scratching/bending etc. Now I doubt they're as big of a problem as its getting press time after all, the blogs need to get their daily post count but still it's more than an isolated incident. It literally has less things than what the Wii U had at launch, hell even exclusive games as BOTW is a Wii U port. I'm glad it's apparently going to sell well and I hope they fix these problems soon but they seem to not have learned anything from the Wii U or 3DS launch. I really like the idea of the switch but it doesn't seem like it. |

As for lack of Virtual Console... well the Wii U has one as does the 3DS, so no need to rush one for Switch. I think most people can wait until later this year. |

If the lack of Netflix or YouTube on the Switch is part of why you're not getting it right away, you're getting it for the wrong reasons.

I don't think I've ever watched shows on any of my gaming consoles. I also barely ever use the internet browser or whatever other app nonsense.
I use my consoles to play games only. I also have a blu-ray player so I don't have to play blu-rays in my PS3/PS4 even though I could. |

I just bought a Switch at a Walmart. You're probably better off finding one at a store as opposed to someplace like GameStop. There were only two left and I just decide to get that with Zelda and Bomberman.
Zelda's really fun and it's weird because I'm spending more time exploring my surroundings than making some actual progress. Bomberman's a blast to play! It's a nice side game in case you want a break from Zelda and want to play something else. And I already pre-ordered Mario Kart 8. |

After the NES Classic got so much mainstream attention, and added so much value and interest to their back-catalogue of games, I'm hoping Nintendo go all-out with the Virtual Console this time.

Found a Swiiiiiiiiitch! Just Samurai Shodown IV and Wonder Boy so far for it. They didn't have any games in stock at the store.
Wonder Boy is TIGHT. I loved it back on the Master System and this is everything I could have wanted in a remake.

Wonderboy looks super cool. It'll be ages before I get a Switch, so I might grab the Steam version when it drops in June.

I've never heard of Wonderboy but it looks pretty cool. Definitely gonna add it to my Switch collection.

I might get that because my New 3DS XL is acting wonky.

It looks so sleek, the best looking 3DS Family model and best DS since the DSlite; Reminds me a lot of the original GBA design. I really want one but there's two things holding me back:
1-I'm going to wait until E3 to see how serious Nintendo is with keeping the 3DS alive or if they'll just GB Micro their "third pillar" strategy. 2- I'm one of the few but I loved playing games in 3D, I always wanted a New 3DS for the improved 3D but found it difficult to justify the price for basically the same system I already had and had already upgraded (3ds to XL). So the New 2DS doesn't have many benefits anymore, besides the slighy specs increase that only helps a few games. I would hope we get a New 3DS that has the micro SD slot like the new 2ds and maybe some better colors for the new 3DS... |

I really like it, even if it is unnecessary and confusing. I wanted a new 3ds but I don't need 3d and that price even used is still too steep. It prolly won't be long before these are knocked down to 100 or so and I'll grab one then.

I hope E3 is nuts for Nintendo this year.

It's nice to see Nintendo doing so well again though it sucks that they're doing the minimum and barely addressing the issues they've had for years with the new system so I doubt they'll learn anything from the Wii U failure.
Any predictions for E3? I'm expecting a rather boring Nintendo conference, it'll be cool but no earth shattering announcements, basically the best scenario I can hope for is that all the rumors for the Switch announcement will finally be announced and shown they were real. But there's no way they'll be announcing big stuff when they have Mario Odyssey and they don't want to take the spotlight out of their big holiday title. The surprises will include Rabbids + Mario, and other smaller stuff that we don't know about, what we can hope for is maybe the rumored Smash Switch port and Pokemon Stars. I'm guessing there'll be a big title for the 3DS line for the holidays and of course Animal Crossing mobile, Sadly we won't get much news about the online, VC, apps and other issues that people have with the switch. They've never really used E3 for those in recent years, they'll leave those for a direct down the line. |
