The number one reason I am a Nintendo fan is because of Mario Kart.
I own every version of the game. I go to Dave & Busters to play MARIO KART ARCADE GP DX and Nintedno has finally came up with the one version of Mario Kart that I will not be buying.
For the Switch to be a replacement for the 3DS I would need to buy three of them for my two kids and me and THAT IS NOT HAPPENING! Heck I am not even going to by one of them.
We each have are own 3DS XL and we each have are own DSi XL. I am not going to spend $1000+ for each of us to have a new portable device.
The Switch is going to go down in FLAMES!
I think our next portable gaming devices with be NVIDIA SHIELD K1 8" Tablet.
I could care less about specs and graphics quality. All I care about is the freaking games.
But in my humble opinion, the Switch looks like a gimmicky train wreck. I could litterly care less about the Switch. Which hurts coming from a Nintendo Fanboy that has been there from the beginning.
I think I can officially call myself a recovering Nintendo Fanboy. I am 45 years old and have been there from the beginning. I will no longer being jumping through Nintendo's hoops.
I have switched eligince and found a company that has no problems taking my money and they are called Microsoft.
Why does Nintendo make it so freaking hard to buy their products? I set $70 aside for the NES Classic and a extra controller. I just put it on my Xbox One account, Microsoft has no problems taking my money.
I will not be buying one new, I will wait till I can buy one used from Amazon Warehouse. Nintendo will never get another penny from me.
Never have I had this issue with Sony or Microsoft.
I am 45 and have been there from the start, I can't fathom how much money I have spent on Nintendo.
But Nintendo will never get another penny from me. I will still buy Nintendo products, but I will only buy used from Amazon Warehouse Deals. I am fed up with their crap.
I have an Xbox One, and playing Forza Horizon 3 and Overwatch. Battlefied 1 and COD Infinite Warfare are just around the corner.
Pokemon Sun and Moon are a month and a half away.
Then on my PS Vita I will soon be playing Dragon Quest Builders and Final Fantasy World.
I could not care less about the NX, it will be my first Nintendo device I will not buy Day One and I have been there since the beginning ( I'm 45 ). I will maybe buy it 18 months are 2 years down the road.

Can't wait for this game! Long Live the 3DS!
Re: Talking Point: The Nintendo 3DS, A System That Still Has a Role to Play
For portable gaming I will take my 3DS XL, DSi XL, PS Vita and PSP over the Switch every single day of the week.
Re: Kerbal Space Program Developer Reevaluating Proposed Wii U Port
Love it on PC, but the Xbox One version is unplayable.
Was really hoping for a Wii U version, I thought it was the perfect system for it.
Re: Mario Sports Superstars Heading to Europe on 10th March
Already have 2 copies pre-odored from Amazon, can't wait. My kids and me love all the Mario sports games.
Re: Parent Trap: Nintendo Switch Parental Controls Beat Console Rivals To The Punch
I do not use any parent controls on any of the devices I own.
My kids know what they can and can not do. They know if they break the rules, there will be real consequences.
Re: Parent Trap: Nintendo Switch Parental Controls Beat Console Rivals To The Punch
@Anti-Matter There is no correlation between video games and peoples behavior. Don't use video games to excuse bad parents and bad kids.
Re: Switch Will Succeed By Offering Something You Can't Get On PlayStation Or Xbox, Says Randy Pitchford
I have $300 burning a whole in my pocket. I have a Wii U, 2 Xbox Ones, PS3, 3DS XL, PS Vita, Vita TV and a Gaming PC.
For that $300 if I could find one I could get a Switch that would be useless because I only have $300.
Or, for $300 I can get a PS4 Slim with Uncharted 4, Final Fantasy XV and a 2nd controller.
I think it is a no brainer. Maybe I will consider a Switch come Black Friday 2018.
Re: Pokémon Bank Update Adds Support for Pokémon Sun & Moon
Now Nintendo needs to remind you when your year is almost up. I have no concept of time, so my year was up and I lost all my Pokemon.
Re: Talking Point: Let's Explore What Could Be Done with HD Rumble on the Nintendo Switch
@rjejr Nintendo should hire you. You have almost sold me on the switch.
Re: DFC Intelligence Believes Nintendo Switch Can Shift 40 Million Units by 2020
@00Wyvern It's a home console that can be moved easily. It is not a portable device.
Re: Feature: The Quest for the Ultimate NES Classic Edition Wireless Controller
Still do not have a NES Classic Mini!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Random: Of Course You Can't Fit The Nintendo Switch In Your Pocket
I use a Gaems G155 with my Xbox One. It's just as portable as a Switch.

Re: Breaking Down the Nintendo Switch Online Service Details
People really need to take off their rose colored glasses.
I can't believe anybody is excited about this trainwreck.
Re: Gallery: Here's What The Nintendo Switch Looks Like From (Almost) Every Angle
The Switch is going to end up making the Wii U look like a Grand Slam.
Re: Hands On: Putting the Nintendo Switch Hardware Through Its Paces
@Danrenfroe2016 I just traded in my copy of Splatoon for exactly that reason, before it becomes worthless.
Amazon gave me $25
Re: Hands On: Putting the Nintendo Switch Hardware Through Its Paces
Happy I have my Wii U and 3DS XL.
The Switch is just not for me. Maybe next time Nintendo, if there is a next time.
Re: Soapbox: The Switch Presentation Was Good, but Not Perfect
Maybe I will pick one up during Black Friday 2018.
I honestly can't figure out how anybody could be excited about the Switch. There is not one single aspect that interests me.
Re: Gallery: New Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Screenshots Look Pretty Fresh
90% of my gaming is racing. I love Mario Kart, but the The Switch and MK8 Redux is a big NO!
If its still a thing, might pick it up Black Friday 2018.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think of the Nintendo Switch Presentation?
The wait is over, I am getting a PS4. The Switch is a big NO GO! After the presentation I am even more sure I am not buying one.
I don't play Zelda games and I already own MK8.
PS4 has a new Gran Tourismo and Hot Shots Golf coming out, much more excited about those that anything the Switch has to offer.
For now I will just play my PC, Xbox One, Wii U, 3DS and PS Vita.
THE SWITCH IS DEAD IN THE WATER FOR ME.
Re: Nintendo NY Store Confirms A 'Limited Quantity of Pre-Orders' for Nintendo Switch on 13th January
I'll buy a Switch after I can walk into a store and purchase a NES Mini Classic.
Re: Soapbox: The Nintendo Switch's Final Specs Don't Matter
I could care less about specs and graphics quality. All I care about is the freaking games.
But in my humble opinion, the Switch looks like a gimmicky train wreck. I could litterly care less about the Switch. Which hurts coming from a Nintendo Fanboy that has been there from the beginning.
Re: Poll: Are You Optimistic for Nintendo's 2017?
I am very pessimistic! I hope Nintendo proves me wrong.
But until they do, thank God for my Xbox One, 3DS and PS Vita.
Re: Hype Builds as Nintendo Switch Advertisements Continue to Appear in Stores
NO HYPE for ME! Maybe 2 or 3 years down the road I might pick one up.
I no longer have faith in Nintendo.
Re: Talking Point: Splatoon May Be Winding Down, But Its Legacy Could Be Significant
How long before the servers are shut off and the game becomes useless?
Amazon will give me $24 for the game on Trade In. I am seriously considering trading it in.

Re: EA Executive Clarifies Scope of Nintendo Switch Support, but is Cautious of Its Prospects

Re: Nintendo of America Promises 'Steady Flow' of NES Classic Edition Units Through Holiday Period
Nope! This is bad and all the blames falls on Nintendo. There is no good reason why this is happening.
I am fed up with Nintendo and their apologist.
Re: Hardware Review: NES Classic Mini: Nintendo Entertainment System
Why does Nintendo make it so freaking hard to buy their products? I set $70 aside for the NES Classic and a extra controller. I just put it on my Xbox One account, Microsoft has no problems taking my money.
I will not be buying one new, I will wait till I can buy one used from Amazon Warehouse. Nintendo will never get another penny from me.
Never have I had this issue with Sony or Microsoft.
Re: Video: Mark NES Classic Mini Day With This Heartwarming Home Movie From The Past

Re: Reminder: Set Your Alarm Clock To Snag A NES Classic Edition For The Holiday Season
@ironside1911 raspberry pi emulation is not that great.
Re: Reminder: Set Your Alarm Clock To Snag A NES Classic Edition For The Holiday Season
I want one, but I will not be jumping through hoops to buy one.
When I can walk in any store, or just go to Amazon.com or B&H.com and just buy one, then I will.
Nintendo really needs to get their together.
Re: Nintendo Switch Won't Be Sold At A Loss, Two Million Units To Ship In Time For March
Sad to say, I will not be buying one of those 2 million units. Maybe 2 or 3 years down the road I will pick one up.
I'm good, I will still have my 3DS, Wii U, PS Vita, Xbox One and my Gaming PC.
Re: Nintendo Won't Be Making Any Game or Spec Related Switch Announcements Until 2017
Way to many Nintendo apologists.
Re: Say Hello to the Nintendo Switch, a New Concept for Gaming
As a 45 year old gamer, that owns every single Nintendo gaming device. All I can say right now is NOPE!
I will not be buying day one. Maybe two or three years done the road I will pick one up for my collection.

Re: Poll: Six Months On - How Do You Feel About My Nintendo?
I quit even bothering about it about a week after it first came out.
I want Club Nintendo back, it was a 1000 times better than this crap.
Nintendo just keeps on digging the knife deeper and deeper into my heart.
