@Flugen for me it was the worst showing for a long time Nintendo had done, nothing there really appealed to me other than fortnite ......... I think Ubisoft won E3 with Sony a close 2nd, wow even EA was better than Nintendo’s
There's no case what so ever here. Joycon controllers work separately to each other from the console tablet and in co-junction with it too............Gamevice does not have the tech to do that. Nintendo will take that company to bits and completely rinse it out of money in court then for Nintendo to counter sue.
Who remembers the SUPER FX CHIP in the Snes carts, to give an extra boost of graphical power............. the Switch uses sd cards maybe I just don't know but maybe they will do something similar for Switch VR!!!!!!! just saying.
I think the people on here praising Nintendo saying the memory can be expandable to 2TB are in La La land.........and who pays for it!!!!!!!!!! Not Nintendo but you the public, the Switch isn't £280, it's now £330/£350/£370 and the costs keep on growing. There should already be at least 500Gb in side it in the first place.
@faint lol very funny. To be honest I do wish for it to be a huge success however looking at the launch line up it doesn't look good. Was very hyped up for this as it's right up my street with the portability factor............ but the funtamental thing is that Nintendo has not learnt from their mistakes and haven't listened to what the gamers want............ it's the gamers who feed them not the other way round. Poor line up. Not Anough memory. No mention of VC. No mention on how much online is going to be. Over priced accessories. Over priced console. Timid 3rd party support. Oh and yeah shoulder buttons are not analog , a massive let down on racing junkies, I mean this day and age and there is no analog L2 and R2, c'mon get real. This is the truth at the moment FACT
I really do hope Nintendo pulls out all the stops and make things better and LISTENS to what people are saying.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE I'm totally with you on this, I wrote pretty much the same thing in another article. Nintendo need to pull their thumbs out and make some huge announcements for the switch or this will be worst failure than the WiiU. I have lost faith in them.
Nintendo direct will shortly be announced for damage limitation on all the negativity. They will put in a free game with it, probably 1-2 switch as that game won't sell 10 copies. Free online. Bigger storage, probably 128gb. VC with a 1 free game from every generation up to the GameCube. Cheaper games. Blah blah blah
Wow no analog triggers in this day and age..........are you f'ing kidding me, For racing junkies this is a big no, I would have to buy a overpriced pro controller, that's one of the reasons I didn't buy a WiiU. Talk about digging your own grave and throwing yourself in it, I mean you gave yourself the shovel and dug it, you haven't even waited for the public to throw you in it, you threw yourself in it. Bye bye Nintendo DOA. £280 price tag is too much, at that price it should come with a free game. Only 32gb memory, should have been 500gb or at least 256gb.....make an effort Nintendo. No launch line up. 3-6 hours battery. No mention of VC. No mention of how much the online service will cost. The price of game is way too expensive. The extra accessories are overpriced. Didn't see much 3rd party support.
For a modern console they should at least compete with the big boys. It's like an amateur boxer going up against Mike Tyson or going into war against a tank, just armed with a stone................AGAIN MAKE A BLOODY EFFORT NINTENDO and stop mugging the paying public off.
Prediction is This will fail, like I predicted the WiiU would fail and it did. Good bye Nintendo my gaming memories with you will live long in my mind and heart.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo........................... I've been put off it now, damn you Zelda looking so good to me can't do no wrong. Wait maybe a year or so when it gets cheaper and maybe an updated version with bigger storage.
Zelda Zelda Zelda
Awwwww damn Zelda looks too good not to be a day 1 purchase!!!!!
This was the best thing from the presentation, the rest was quite mediocre. So much left unanswered. Launch line. Prices of games. Price of online No mention VC No mention specs of hardware. Come on Nintendo don't shoot yourselves in the foot again, Zelda is probably the thing that has saved you this morning.
@KingofSaiyanZ the PS2 did have fun games however the killer app was the inclusion of a DVD player,a lot cheaper than the DVD players that were out at that time, I know myself and all my mates had one but had more dvd's films than actual games, for me and most of my friends we see the PS2 as a DVD player that could play some fun games....... that's why it sold over 155 million.......and I thought everyone new that!!!!
This is right up my street. I can see my self playing on the big screen the night before and then continuing where I left off while waiting for the lads to turn up for work in the morning.
The "NintendoGo" has had a delay for a chip upgrade to be at least as powerful as X1 and PS4 so 3rd parties would develop for them as the Scorpio and Pro would be out soon but would still have to develop for the older models.😱
The peripheral is a case for your phone, but not as we know it but a controller case,your phone is already the touch screen. You just add the game cart to that case that was in your NX and away you go.
The thing is companies talk, Dev teams talk. A Dev team who's developing for ps4, X1 receives Dev kits for NX and says to the others that the NX is much more powerful and will blow your mind........the others respond,they had a concept 6 months ago and now they are going through with it. I do believe and my sources believe this ps4k is a direct response to the NX and the rumoured X1 upgrade.
One of the best controllers that was made and still enjoy the N64 till this day. Recently bought a n64 to GameCube controller adapter,so am playing N64 games with the GameCube controller which is very good but takes a bit of time figuring out what each button does.
@LemonSlice It might do,and would save Nintendo a lot of money by doing it. In its present state as the above pictures you can be on the train playing it like a touch screen phone,but when you get home you clip it into a controller shel to finish the game you were playing.
Has anyone on here actually thought it might be real??? And it fits into an actual controller shel to be played on the tv and when you go out you can keep playing but in its form that we see via the photos at the top??
Anyone
Anyone.
Let's think outside the box.........it is Nintendo after all.
Oh yeah if that was the case it would save Nintendo a lot of money by doing that and not have to make a separate controller for the hardcore.......just clip in and play.
