Your selling me on this cat thing. 

Just looked them up, I wish the Orange was more of a construction vest orange. I would be totally sold on them then. 

But is this the new model switch or the old model?

No it isn’t. The Tegra X processor inside the switch is far more powerful than the chips inside the OG iPhone and that came out in 2007. 

Good for you, but you were complaining that the controllers are too small. They are NOT too small, it is a portable console and they need to be portable. They sell a larger controller, the pro controller.

The Switch isn’t any different than the PSP or Vita that came before it, both the PSP and Vita could be plugged into a TV and played on the big screen. The switch uses mobile hardware and is a portable game console like the gameboy. Yes it can be played on your tv but if it was a home console it would be made with

I really want this. I was actually thinking earlier that they don’t make purple joycons. Plus the Mickey home button is amazing. They should sell this here, I would 100% buy this. Hell just sell me those joycons. 

I am not a big fan of the Switch Pro Controller, it just feels slightly off enough to be weird. It feels like an off brand 360 controller, but like a slightly higher end one. 

They made a Wii U that had a gamepad controller

The switch is a portable console before it is a home console. 

Don’t forget the $60 price tag is there because of competition as well. So Tomb Raider dropped in price so fast because there are so many other games I can spend $60 on that I would rather play so they dropped the price to encourage people to buy their game instead. This is how capitalism is supposed to work, and also

Game price doesn’t need to go up, making game price go up only gives the CEOs and executives more money, it won’t change a damn thing for the developers. We need regulation and oversight for the industry as a whole.

Complexity was added. Honestly 360 and xbone controllers don’t last very long either, OG Xbox Controller still works though. The DS4 is pretty good but I wore 2 of them out playing Overwatch, that is probably my fault, I never had a PS3 controller break on me, I lost one PS2 controller when moving and have one that

This isn’t a glitch this is a selling point.

I think the $60 price has nothing to do with the video game industry and far more to do with the US economy as a whole. Wages in the US have stagnated for decades and disposable income has never been less. Video games have to sell for $60 if they raise their price they will sell far fewer copies when the games launch

I bet they launch together or at least close to the same time. 

To be honest this is the number one thing I wanted in a new Switch. I got my Tax return this year and decided I would finally get one, but rumors of new models made me wait. Now with this announcement and the Lite announcement it doesn’t look like a Pro version will be coming in the near future. So I will pick this

I would say this just means we won’t get one this year, not that we aren’t getting one. I would bet next year or the year after we will see a “Pro” model. 

The GoT Ultraboost were the same price as any regular Ultraboost. All Ultraboost are $180 unless you find them on sale.

Fair enough. I totally understand especially since the Duelshock 4 constantly goes on sale for less than $40 and has a lot of tech inside. Touchpad, dual rumble motors, speaker, headphone jack, led bar, analogue triggers, rechargeable battery, for half the price of joycons.
