I adore the Switch as a console. However, I am annoyed by the lesser number of released first party games. The console by now is as outclassed by the PS5/XSX as much as the Wii was outclassed by its competitors. I'm also sort of disappointed that outside of a select few games (BOTW, Odyssey, AC and Smash), other exclusives are not getting the same budget and attention. (Fire Emblem, I'm looking at you. Best game on the console imo, but those graphics are proof it was underbudgeted.)
I could understand Wii owners not needing a 360 or PS3 to continuously get solid releases as the console was on a totally different lane. However, the Switch has been having performance issues on pretty much 95% of third party games. When your console is clearly trying to compete with the other consoles, I think this is a big issue. Nintendo NEED to announce and release a Switch Pro with more power before the release of the big guns like BOTW2 and MP4.
Yeah okay I can finally say Pokemon Go broke them. That’s it. I’m done supporting this company. Pokemon fan for 20+ years, I’m out. How did anyone think this was a good idea!?!? How out of touch are these people?!?!?
@Cartune I feel like adding minigames (maybe those arcade machines) and extra modes could make AC muuuuuuuuch more of a social media bomb than it already is.
Nintendo aren't dumb. They will have a holiday drop. If you really want to buy a game soon, support buy the Xenoblade port. I'm sure they will have SOMETHING for Q3 or Q4.....
