Too bad, would have been nice to have on the Switch as well.

On the other hand, I'm not sure how much I would play it though considering it requires a constant online connection and the Switch lacks any kind of mobile network features..

Looking forward to: No More Heroes: Travis Strikes Again

I'm amused to no end that the big games of the year so far are Monster Hunter, Shadow of the Colossus and a DBZ fighter by Arc System Works.

It's like the west dominated 7th generation of consoles never even happened.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Looks like we can also assume Overwatch is never coming too. Not that I thought it would come anyway but Nintendo needs those online games for the paid online service to be worthwhile.

@kkslider5552000 It's great. Japanese devs are back on top, EA's disgusting practices are getting pushback, Nintendo is finally popular again: it's like the true sequel to the 6th gen.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Well, they aren't exactly lying. I'm sure Mario & Rabbids outsold the next two third party titles for the system combined.

Regarding Ubisoft and their claim, they've definitely got the most successful selling 3rd party game on Switch. But in terms of numbers of games released they've not been great, with mainly cheap ports.

Be curious to see if Activision Blizzard will release any more games.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE The Switch is both as you see fit to use it.

Its been almost a year. This isnt hard. Just because they advertise it more as a portable doesnt mean it suddenly isnt also capable of being a home system.

@YummyHappyPills As a home console it's not much more powerful than the Wii U which itself was criticised for its lack of power back when it launched. As a portable, however, it's a beast. Nintendo know what way it should be advertised predominantly. When the 3DS dies, Nintendo will fully back it as a handheld. And also because its lack of power as a home console is only going to widen with time.

@YummyHappyPills If rumors are to be believed, the Crash Trilogy is coming to Switch this year and they also have plans for more Crash games.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Actually as a portable it is barely above Wii U. As a home console it sits between Wii U and Xbox One.

Sure in GPU power its not that far ahead but in CPU power it is leagues above Wii U, which is why we are seeing Wii U games run better even when they are literal straight ports.

Bayonetta 2 for instance has a 10fps increase when nothing has been done to the game.

Marketibg Switch as a home cobsole is not wrong. Thats what it is. Marketing it as a portable is also not wrong. Thats what it is.

Also I find it odd that Wii U was criticised for power when it launched. So you mean to tell me in November 2012 before the PS4 and Xbox One were publicly known quantities. The Wii U outside of CPU ran rings around Xbox 360 and PS3.

Wure a year after launch itd be considered underpowered, but in 2012, not so much.

Also underpowered isnt the term Id use for a system that is below its contemporaries. Underpowered implies there is a minimum sufficient specification that has been failed to reach.

@IceClimbers Rumours + Switch. Ok thats cute.

Until it is confirmed or definitively denied there is nothing to speculate.

@YummyHappyPills
If it was confirmed there'd be no need to speculate.

Speculation is, and always has been, inextricably tied to rumors.
