Nintendo Switch

[Tsukoblue]

Anyone here going to get one?

I am hopefully on release day

[banditwolf]

Switch it. Switch it good.

Day one? No. Nintendo already said they are limiting production and I'm not dealing with that mess. When it gets clearanced in a couple years I'll grab it.

Limited production? My interest has been quelled.

[banditwolf]

When does Nintendo overproduce anymore?

[Tubsiwub]

They need to stop purposely producing "Limited" amounts, though. At least try to make the fans happy.

I had planned to buy every Amiibo when they were first announced, but as soon as I saw that we NEVER got ANY of them on release anywhere near me, I stopped caring. I own a few.

Nintendo has been under-producing launch windows since the original NES console.

I want a switch because it's the only real upcoming portable gaming machine. If they can keep the price competitive with Vita and tablets, I think that it should be fine.

I've always waited at least a year after a console launches before I buy it. Unless they reveal a ton of good launch or close-to-launch games on the 12th, that won't change.
But I am excited for this system. If they can really merge Nintendo's handheld and console libraries, while also beefing up the amount console-esque games, it'll be fantastic. And the amount of "hype" directed at the Switch already bodes well for the console.


My main concern with the Switch, and I thought this while watching the trailer, has always been...


What happens to Etrian Odyssey?
Without a touch screen mapping becomes even more of a hassle, and it's a feature that already turns people off to the series. I hope Atlus comes up with a good solution.

I'll end up getting one just to finally get to play Splatoon if nothing else.

I never got a WiiU because the only time I tried one, at a Kiosk, the load times were so bad I actually thought it might be broken. Was an extremely bad first/only impression.

I thought Wii U was "A#1 awesome ^_^"?
