@ironside1911 Yeah. I suppose it was just the other colors I saw that went past $60.

@Jcdbengals I'm not sure why everyone's making a fuss about that controller when I see $65 Dualshock 4 controllers all the time. I thought it was steep, but nobody seems to be talking about that.

Good news. But seeing the Switch unavailable everywhere is concerning. If nobody can buy it then how can you sell more? They should fix that soon.

Doesn't sound good. I imagine a lot of people still have yet to get their Switch.

10/10 GOTY

That is pretty neat. I would have never found that though.

@DonkeyKongBigBoy Well, that's good to hear.

@garthvader I want the system to be successful. But if it doesn't sell well, that's because Nintendo didn't convince enough people to want it.

The way I see it, Zelda is the only major game to get right now. But relax, guys. Obviously there are going to be people that buy it at launch just like every other console. And even though I would always recommend waiting, they have their own reasons. It could simply be because they don't want to worry about purchasing it later.

Amazing!

Depending on the type of news, it changes colors. Like blue, red, and even a darkish green I think. Lol it's pretty cool.

Well, whenever I do decide to get a Switch, I hope this isn't an issue anymore. I want to experience this in its full glory on a TV.

@Bruh I played Witcher 3 on PC and it ran pretty much flawlessly. That must be a console issue.

Good for people that got multiple TV's. This is pretty neato.

I don't know when I'll get a Switch. I'm actually more concerned about getting a PC or PS4. But I do have my eyes on the Switch. I'd use the portability a lot. But we'll see what happens.

I don't know if I would ever spend points on anything but discounts of games to be honest.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE I wanted a traditional console that was up to par with the other consoles, but I like the idea of the Switch. It lacks power compared to the other home consoles and is likely not going to get full third party support again. Normally, I would be furious. But unlike Nintendo's last two consoles, the Switch has a legitimate reason for being underpowered which is it's mobile chip that was necessary to use for it to be portable. And I can see them releasing an upgraded version a few years down. If it can at least get a big game every now and then like the GameCube did, it's fine to me. If it isn't able to do that, it's wasted potential. The Switch's ability to play any game anywhere at anytime is a MAJOR advantage over any console right now. Even if it can't compete with graphics, simply being able to take the game with you is already a selling point for a lot of people.

@Miles_Edgeworth They have the same screen size. But it's overall slimmer and smaller than the Gamepad.

@Rman12 To me, the Switch is improved over the Wii U by a lot. No region lock, games tied to account and not console, better online service, and the portability is something that's definitely useful to me. For people that don't care about playing handheld mode, I can see why they are not interested. And that's fine. Nintendo took a risk combining console and handheld into a single experience and even though it can act just fine as both, it falls behind when you try to use it as just one thing. Because it's not small and compact enough to be a handheld for a lot of people and it doesn't compete in terms of power as a home console compared to the other consoles which is a let down for those guys that wanted a comparable console to PS4 Pro or Scorpio.

I knew it. This game looks like a masterpiece. We had to wait so long for it, but the wait has paid off.

Now you don't have to worry about games only launching in a certain region.

...I was about to be furious. Thank goodness it's not the only way.

Good luck to you early adopters. I hope this console turns out well. We don't need another repeat of the Wii U.

OK... Now this only makes me tempted to actually try it.

@Blue_Dread Sonic Mania isn't really an indie.

I honestly don't get why some people don't like indies. Some of these games are actually better than AAA games. You'd be surprised.

The first party support for the Nintendo Switch looks promising. If I were to get the Switch, I'd be looking at Zelda, MK8 Deluxe, Splatoon 2, ARMS, FE Warriors, Super Mario Odyssey, to name a few. I agree the launch is lackluster. But not the lineup for the whole year. It's more impressive than the Wii U.

IMO, the Switch is definitely an improvement over the Wii U. The only real concern I have is the third party support. Because the lack of power for it won't get certain developers. It will have to sell well to make up for that.

I'm interested in this. But for that price... no. I'm not sure.

Wherever I do get a Nintendo Switch, the Pro Controller is definitely something I'll be getting. Nothing beats playing on the TV with the good ol' traditional style controller.

Wii U got what it deserved. Nintendo poorly advertised it and it was gimped in far too many ways. I get that they want to push the Gamepad and give us something new, but as a regular console, it is not up to par. Nintendo had more than enough time to learn from the PS3 and 360. I don't mean make a complete carbon copy of the two, but at least get basic stuff right like account system, console storage, etc.

I love the internet.

Man, I do not care about the elections or the President. I just want to play some games. Lmao.

Ohhhhh, I COMPLETELY forgot Zelda TPHD was on the Wii U. Man. I wasn't thinking I needed to get another Wii U, but now I'm thinking I'm starting to miss out on a bit too many exclusives.

Resident Evil 7?

Looking at that clean, slick, white Gamepad gives me memories of first opening my Wii U. Back when I thought the Wii U was actually gonna be a great success for Nintendo. First game I got was Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed. Spent like the whole night playing. Good times. Ahh... But here we are now. It never took off and was quickly abandoned by third parties. So much wasted potential.

@PrincePeach92 If you want to be surprised when they reveal the NX, would be best not to stick around and look for Nintendo news. It's guaranteed it will be leaked.

@BiasedSonyFan I'd rather have all platforms. But if I could only choose just one, it would easily be PC.

@yomanation "You could argue that Witcher 3 has higher quality, but it is in the expense of features and player freedom." Now this, I agree with. I've always thought The Witcher 3 was much better than Skyrim, but it is true that you don't have much choice in who you want to be. You can only be Geralt. You can be anyone in Skyrim. I personally find vanilla Skyrim pretty boring, but I won't deny how much content there is. The amount of powers, shouts, weapons, armor, quests, etc is big and the world is giant. When you get into modded Skyrim, the possibilities are endless. It's amazing.

It's amazing that they've managed to stay in business that long.

@Lucina At the end of the day, it really doesn't matter how much we complain about Ubisoft. Because nothing is going to change if everyone still buys their games. Truth be told, most people that say they hate Ubisoft are just a vocal minority. For every person that hates them, 10 people line up to buy their next game.

Looks like Nintendo is trying to kill the NX before it's even released.

The two main problems with VR gaming is it's high price and the lack of interesting games. Just give it time. Prices should go down and better games will release.

The game could benefit from an HD remaster. It would be great.

Personally, I think the game looks good. Only Fire Emblem I've played is Awakening and I have yet to play a Persona game. I don't know much about either franchise, so I guess that's why there's no need for me to really complain about it.

@Rumorlife Of course there will be whining. Without the help of third party games, you depend mainly on Nintendo. And when they don't deliver, it sucks. Hard.

I would be if they were actually showing the NX. Tired of rumours about it. I just want them to stop already.

VR is fine as long as it's optional. Just like with Vive and PSVR. But, you never know with Nintendo...

@ikki5 Well said. As usual, you're always one of the people on this site with common sense.

The NX is going to get new details revealed this E3. And I can say that it will get a release date sometime next year. Most likely during E3 2017. It COULD be a handheld. And it probably will be. But if it's a console, I would say it's a better idea to wait until around the time Sony and MS are ready to show off their next systems. but they probably won't even have theirs ready to reveal until 2019. There's no telling what's gonna happen. But I hope Nintendo is ready to get back into the competition and pull gamers towards their system. They should've already done this with the Wii U. (which shouldn't have even had Wii in its name) It's time to show people Nintendo isn't "kiddy" and that they can compete.
