Nintendo Switch

Better than the windwaker. Lol

 

Im a zelda die hard but refused to buy a wii u or skyward sword.

 

I pre-ordered one with the Master Set of the new Zelda game. My wife has been waiting for this game to be released so I went ahead and bought everything as a surprise. It should be here on 3/3. She'll be excited.

 

Gamecube was good, it was the fact that it had a actual traditional controller that i liked lol. Wiimote is annoying af

 

The Gamecube was Nintendo's last attempt at the traditional console gamer. Now they've moved on to trying to provide a unique physical experience with every generation because they don't see value in competing with the other consoles.

 

It's going to be a pass for me. I'm still pretty happy with my Wii.

 

I'm unclear on where you're getting your information from. Nintendo artificially limited stock to create hype on the WiiU and the NES Classic after they saw what a runaway success the Wii was- there weren't WiiU's 'stuck in inventory' anywhere until years after launch. The Nintendo executives have also promised that they will not have supply issues at launch of the Switch (although I don't believe that) due to the massive backlash on them after the NES Classic fiasco

 

And what a mess. 3 months later and still can't find even a goddamn controller

 

Nice, with THAT said and graphics are noticeably better than the Wii U then my statement would be reversed. I still don't plan on playing games on the go but I do appreciate good graphics for any console over $250.

 

Hmmm I simply remember not having an issue finding a WiiU locally at launch. After a year in Canada they were still everywhere with relatively little support compared to the Wii. The rest I'm not sure what you're mad about. Nintendo does like to short things to create demand. People want what they can have especially if the limited group that has one likes what they have a lot.

 

Any concern that the booster graphics are going to be a pain for ported games? Kind of seems like the PC problem where stock low price laptops never seem to have enough jam to run the newest or best looking games.

BTW Nintendo has only released speculation on the graphics as far as IRL testing is concerned they haven't shown anything definitive. The numbers they've thrown out are impressive but this is the first console implementation of ARM architecture and boosted graphics. I'm interested to see how this turns out.

 

Maybe it was different in Canada but in US they were nearly impossible to find. I'm not 'mad', just remarking that what you're saying is contrary to well documented industry statistics about the WiiU supply and the promise by Nintendo to not have shortages on the Switch.

Different areas very realistically may have experienced different supply

 

Yeah, time will tell. It's also a bit misleading when you can't tell either what demand is really like. When the Wii came out I don't think anyone thought demand would skyrocket like it did.

 

Remember the N64 booster memory pack? I hope the system doesn't scale that far back. Some games were barely playable without the red expansion.

 

I'll wait a month after it releases. Want to be sure it's worth the purchase, or i can use that money towards my Tacoma.
