I’m not sure if the Switch can completely overtake the 3DS as peoples’ primary portable gaming system... it’s certainly portable, but it’s just a touch too big to easily carry around, and it doesn’t have quite the battery life of the 3DS.

lol I saw your reply and saw the “January 13" date that I made that comment but I was so confused because I had 0 recollection of ever reading this article, didn’t realize it was January of last year aha

And literally no one was surprised

....what? He found a ridiculous auction with a ridiculous sales pitch in the description and posted it.

For some reason I just assumed this was set in like the 1500s this entire time and didn’t realize it was HBO. I saw some snippets of reviews mentioning that there’s music by LMFAO and just thought it was a trashy absurd show. Knowing that it’s set in modern times and is an HBO show only kiiiiinda makes it seem less…

He’s always gonna be fondly remembered for this!

Yep and they already came out and said that they won’t be selling the Switch at a loss

Yep. The PS4 sold 6 million units by March 2014, with it being available for about 4 months in NA/EU and available for about 2 weeks in Japan. AND, that was with the PS4 being available and launching in NA/EU during the holiday season.

After poking around looks like those outlets are taking it back, so not 60fps for BotW

That’s all the reports so far. I don’t think it’ll be a consistent 60fps in handheld mode but I definitely know they’re aiming for 60fps in docked mode

As always, the issue is going to be games. I think it’ll definitely be more successful than the WiiU (low bar to clear). And, I think it’ll definitely have more 3rd party support...just not Western 3rd party support. Honestly, if it pans out the way I think it will, I’ll definitely really enjoy it, it probably just…

Yep, USB-C and I hear 802.11ac for Wi-fi and Micro-SD for storage. It’s very not-proprietary

Yeah, most people were already thinking that anyways

Carts, that’s been confirmed for a while

It 100% runs better. They’re saying docked it’s 1080p60fps and undocked is 720p60fps, and I’m pretty sure the WiiU version is aiming for 30fos

The included grip doesn’t charge the Joycons, but you can buy a charging grip for $20, so definitely a cheaper alternative to buying a Pro controller

Other outlets have said it’s definitely comfortable in full handheld mode, and Nintendo says it’ll run 720p60fps.

They’ve also never had a generation where the base pair didn’t get an updated 3rd version or a sequel, until that happened with XY. They’ve never made a game without 8 gyms until Sun and Moon. They may be very formulaic but I’ve learned to stop saying “oh Game Freak has never done it like that so they won’t do it like…

I mean, it’s not like there’s going to be another 3DS Mario Kart or Smash or those types any time soon so they could easily be making those while still making Ever Oasis for the 3DS.

I’m pretty excited for it and it’s the perfect setup for me but I’m also pretty sure it’s not going to solve all the WiiU’s problems. Realistically I just don’t think Nintendo’s going to push for power because they value affordability, and the form factor definitely doesn’t help in pushing down costs (a Switch that’s…
