I was surprised by how long the line was at the Best Buy I went to here in Georgia. I got there at 5 PM and there were already a few people waiting—I was 7th in line. By midnight, the line was nearly wrapping around the building. I had originally planned to get there at 9 PM, and I’m so glad I didn’t. I’ll be surprised if everyone in that line managed to get a Switch.
Nintendo delivered. The Digital Event was amazing, hilarious and entertaining. I wasn't bored one second of it. Just watch the other two companies start doing the same thing in a couple of years. Mark my words, it will happen.
Nothing against local multiplayer, but Nintendo also need to start focusing on online multiplayer. They could have easily included online multi. to Nintendo Land and New Super Mario Bros Wii U.
I wasn't impressed with the new Xbox revel yesterday. Too much TV and Kinect, not enough games. It felt like MS was trying to compete with Comcast and Direct TV and not Nintendo and Sony.
Anyways, going back on topic, Nintendo needs to step up their game. WiiU's hardware might be inferior to the PS4 and XboxOne, but Nintendo got amazing exclusives. If they release SSB, Mario 3D and and a new Zelda game and a price cut this year, the WiiU will be just fine. Might not sell as much as the Wii, but I think it has a good chance of winning this gen.
