My switch is perfectly fine. Really ready for a pro model though. I just cant believe it would release this year. I’m planning on next year. I have a lot of games I still want to play so no rush for me.
We are thankful to have them. Would love to see some games that people keep saying can’t come to to switch be made by them. Especially with the pro coming.
So happy this is finally out. Was tired of hearing people say the switch was fine and another model wasn’t needed until 2023. This is the right move. This is Nintendo being aggressive and proactive. This will rep rewards for them and their install base. Great times ahead.
@Friendly maybe there is a way. We all know we need a switch pro. The original switch is more capable then people think. Not because of brute force power but architecture and modernization. It’s time for a pro but his doesn’t surprise me one bit.
@anoyonmus possible but when people think frostbite they won’t be getting the big games. I assume if this does well they will probably try and bring over other games in the series. But battlefield won’t be coming. Doubt they even attempt madden. It will be games with more animated visuals.
There has always been hype. This isn’t an issue from the gamers perspective. I think developers should stop trying to hype there own games that won’t potentially live up to what they stated it would. Stop using the graphics buzz words to market and promote their games. A great game should speak for itself. Take a look at BOTW. Nintendo released that amazing prelaunch trailer. We saw a bit of the game at the E3 prior to its release. But overall the gameplay spoke for itself. Playing the game is what matters. Hype in itself isn’t a bad thing. It’s not bad for me as a consumer and gamer to be excited for a game. Developers just need to focus on making the game as great as they can within the constraints of the console and the engine they are using.
I disagree. I’m a big Nintendo fan and have no problem being objective. When they do good I give them praise when they don’t I let them know. It has the best Zelda story in my opinion but the worse gameplay and pacing. To each their own I guess.
@Manjushri amazing direct. No need to hold them to any particular standard. They know what they can get away with. I personally made the last mistake of actually watching it along with my wife. That mistake won’t be made again that’s for sure.

Re: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 Gets Its Nintendo Switch Release Date
@Friendly there is a video on YouTube you can watch of actual switch gameplay. Looks really good.
Re: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 Gets Its Nintendo Switch Release Date
Gameplay looks really good on switch.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Apex Legends: Legacy 'Gameplay Overview' Trailer Is Questionable
I don’t care. I won’t attempt to play this until a pro version of switch is released. Hopefully it gets a patch for better performance/visuals.
Re: Soapbox: Hurry Up And Release The Switch Pro Already, My Switch Is Dying
My switch is perfectly fine. Really ready for a pro model though. I just cant believe it would release this year. I’m planning on next year. I have a lot of games I still want to play so no rush for me.

Good choice kid

He has a purchase from me. I will support. Anyone know the story behind the industry shunning him?
Re: Space Commander: War And Trade Will Boldly Go Onto Switch In May
I’ve purchased a couple of “similar” games like this on the switch. I just cant get into them.
Re: Destroy All Humans Brings Its Earth Conquering Madness to Switch on 29th June
Never played this but it looks fun. Assuming it’s a solid port on switch then I will buy it.
Re: Monster Hunter Rise Ships Four Million Units In Opening Weekend
This will easily hit 10 million I’m thinking closer to 20 million sold lifetime.
Re: Poll: Monster Hunter Rise Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
No the series isn’t for me. This will have no problem crossing 10 million sold though.
Re: Feature: Plants Vs. Zombies Producer On Bringing EA's Frostbite Engine To Switch
I’m impressed overall. On the fence about the purchase. I want to support honestly. Wish there was a local co-op mode though.
Re: Maneater Takes A Bite Out Of Switch This May
Maybe! Very tempting
Re: Rustler Is A Medieval GTA Coming To Switch This Year
If it was full 3D then they would have had my attention.
Re: Cross-Platform Shooter Afterpulse Scouts A Switch Launch Later This Month
Would have tried if it was a FPS.
Re: EA Job Listing Suggests Madden Could Be Coming To Switch
If this is true I’m thinking next year and pro exclusive. No way madden runs or looks acceptable on current switch.

Yes please! This 100%.
Re: Review: Apex Legends - A Great Game Hamstrung By A Compromised Switch Port
Ambitious. Just wait for the revision to come. At this point publishers and developers just need to wait.
Re: Video: Nintendo Shares Beginner's Tips For Apex Legends, Out Today On Switch
@TheLightSpirit not worth the response. People with that attitude should just not even respond. Next time just ignore it’s a lot easier.
Re: Soapbox: Why Do People Love Games Like Stardew Valley And Animal Crossing?
To each their own. I can’t get into them. My daughter is in love with animal crossing.
Re: Feature: Panic Button And Respawn On The Challenge Of Bringing Apex Legends On Switch
We are thankful to have them. Would love to see some games that people keep saying can’t come to to switch be made by them. Especially with the pro coming.
Re: Valheim On Switch? Port Wizards Panic Button Would Love To Help Make It Happen
Definitely wouldn’t be my pick at all. Hopefully they get better chances for ports on the pro.
Re: Review: Skyforge - A Disastrous MMORPG Cursed With Technical Faults And Dire Gameplay
Seems like a lot of technical issues holding this back. Hopefully people are willing to jump back in when those are fixed later this year.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Switch Pro "Will Have Exclusives", Says Insider
So happy this is finally out. Was tired of hearing people say the switch was fine and another model wasn’t needed until 2023. This is the right move. This is Nintendo being aggressive and proactive. This will rep rewards for them and their install base. Great times ahead.
Re: Switch FPS Counter Recon: The First Mission Sure Does A Poor Impression Of Call Of Duty
@gutrippabear i can’t say enough how bad the switch needs COD.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo To Reveal New Switch Model With Samsung OLED Display And 4K Support
I’m ready for real leaks of specs.
Re: Nintendo Will Reportedly Reveal A New Switch Model This Year With "Bigger" Samsung OLED Display
So funny how people are spinning this now. “NOW” it’s legit and okay to want a switch pro. A lot of hypocrites out there.

I hope no one actually believes this.
Re: Review: Hellpoint - A Sci-Fi Soulslike Which Suffers From Hellish Technical Issues On Switch
Should have waited on switch pro.
Re: Hot Wheels Unleashed Speeds Onto Nintendo Switch This September
I hate trailers that don’t have actual gameplay footage. Might as well just make a press announcement and call it a day. That did nothing for me.
Re: Star Wars: Republic Commando Is Landing On Switch This April
@Mr-Fuggles777 You know Nintendo gamers don’t play FPS. 🤦🏾♂️

Re: New Nintendo Infographic Shows Off The 30+ Games Announced During This Week's Direct
Apex legends is all I will get. It’s free and worth trying. Other than that I guess I’ll wait on the next batch of announced games from mid year.
Re: EA Acquires Racing Game Specialist Codemasters
@6thHorizon I guess EA knows money talks. SAD
Re: Soapbox: Zelda: Skyward Sword Is Good, Actually
I disagree. I’m a big Nintendo fan and have no problem being objective. When they do good I give them praise when they don’t I let them know. It has the best Zelda story in my opinion but the worse gameplay and pacing. To each their own I guess.
Re: Splatoon 3: First Gameplay Mechanics, Weapons, And 'Splatlands' Lore Details Revealed
Local multiplayer or no buy. That simple for me.
Re: Random: A Reddit User Correctly Leaked Half Of Yesterday's Nintendo Direct Ahead Of Time
This always happens and people get slandered. Then when they get stuff right it’s called lucky guesses anyone could have made.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of The February 2021 Nintendo Direct, Then?
@Manjushri amazing direct. No need to hold them to any particular standard. They know what they can get away with. I personally made the last mistake of actually watching it along with my wife. That mistake won’t be made again that’s for sure.
Re: DC Super Hero Girls: Teen Power Is Coming To Switch This June
@Kalmaro part of one of the best directs ever.
Re: Check Out The Japan-Exclusive Games Revealed During Yesterday's Nintendo Direct
I feel like a lot of games that was in the NA direct should have been exclusive to Japan. Just the announcement itself.
Re: Gallery: Splatoon 3 Is Looking Pretty Fresh In These New Screenshots
How many 2022 games Did they have in the direct? I thought they were against announcing games that are far off.
Re: Stubbs The Zombie Makes A Surprise Return On Switch Next Month
@Rosona exactly what I wanted. Biggest surprise of the show. Couldn’t be happier honestly I’m overjoyed.
