So games like this were running fine on the Switch in 2017 & 2018, so it must be developers not putting the care and attention into this port, but then you suggest Nintendo should update their hardware, even though you clearly stated this was not the issue in the first place.
Don't by digital for the main games, we all know Nintendo's account sytem is not up the the standards of Microsoft etc, why this is still a surprise to people is a mystery.
A with you on the older designs being over sexualized and stereotypical, but sureley there has to be a balance between that and an almost totally unfemenine designs, we are now presented with. A strong female figher can still look female.
I would suggest them supportiing the Wii U for as they did, considering it only sold 13 million consoles, and it's best selling game around 8 million copies, is being very customer orientated. Even the 3DS was well down on DS numbers.
Or simply the economy, sad as this is, people tend to lose their jobs when times get tough, which of course is the last time you want to see anybody lose their job... but if the comapny goes under then everybody will suffer, well certainly the regular staff, so this way at least it's not everybody.
Yes I do remember that, and the epic.... "will the Nintendo Switch be a success" thread on NeoGaf, which has now been closed down, rather than left to be bumped every time the Switch reaches another sales milestone, to serve as a reminder why Niche core hobby gamers are the last people you should be asking about these things.
This is the only time a console tht was never announced in the first place got delayed, which in reality means no delay at all, and will be released when it was supposed to be released.
This is the only time a console tht was never announced in the first place got delayed, which in reality means no delay at all, and will be released when it was supposed to be released.
I know it's all for advertising clicks and sunscriptions, and of course will go on forever until Nintendo spill the beans, and most probebly after the Nintendo reveal.
As people once again are upset by something or other.
Your conclusion lacks a lot of nuance, there are very big differences with previous generations transitions, Nintendo simply did not know understand the more casual nature of Wii U gamers, and the fact they were simply not there to upgade to the Wii U....... The Switch is a totally different scenario.
I thought the Steam deck came after the Switch, not only in terms of release date.........but also sales.
These guys are such hacks, rumors about rumors, based on nothing but pure speculation, no different form the ten a penny low rent You Tubers, that have very few subscribers and even less views, that post video after video suggesting.....
" We need to talk about this latest Switch rumor "
Or if a direct does not happen in january, it's most probably coming in February....... and on and on...... rinse & repeat..
You are talking about opinions, but seem to only take your own subjective views into account.
Who is to say there is a dark side to these games selling well, the vast majority are enjoying them, as they look for positives and fun in games, rather then the core minority "Hobby gamers", who look for reasons not to like games, and spend far too much time playing games and discussing them on the intrenet.
The main audience for these games simply do not see this, or are even aware that people are having issues in the first place.
You simply can't measure the Switch by the PS5/Series X metrics, the Switch looks like it will still shift around 17million units per year, and being ubderpowered has not hindered it's sales in the slightest. Look at the software sales, there are lots of Switch users more than happy with the current console.
Firstly your comments a lot of times are rarely constructive on this particular subject, although they may seem to be in your own mind, and secondly, which I think is your main issue with this, is that you keep alluding to a common public sentiment or complaint, which has no basis in fact or indeed evidence to back it up.
As I have always said there is a very loud and vocal part of the Pokemon community, that are very toxic and complain all the time, but I would suggest these are the core minorities, rather than a more widspread crusade against these games, which I have said over and over, are far from perfect, but still very enjoyable.
I have deleted my initial comment to you, as it was also not very constructive.
Even though I have no issues myself, I still see there are problems, but does it have to taint every single joycon related thread?, pretty sure it does not. Just let people be happy about some new colours. There have been many other articles about the drift issues.

Not sure your comment makes much sense.
Re: Rumour: 'Switch 2' Will Reportedly Feature Magnetic Joy-Cons
@Samalik.
Now that would make far more sense, and current Joycon would be compatible.
Re: Rumour: 'Switch 2' Will Reportedly Feature Magnetic Joy-Cons
This rumor is so fake, just like all the other ones I guess.
Re: Japanese Charts: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Takes Pole Position As Game Sales Falter
@Mgalens,
Switch 2 is going to be a beast, as long as Nintendo keep it simple, and build on the massive success of the original.
Re: Japanese Charts: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Takes Pole Position As Game Sales Falter
@Joe-b,
Like you said, just your own personal opinion.
Re: Japanese Charts: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Takes Pole Position As Game Sales Falter
Will the Switch's total dominance in Japan ever end?.............Switch 2 perhaps.

Re: Rumour: New Report From Nikkei Corroborates 'Switch 2' Delay Into 2025
@-wc-
Very true, the only time a console that was never announced in the first place got delayed.
Nintendo are also buggers for delaying unnanounced Nitendo directs, almost every single month too.

So this game cost almost nothing to make. is that your own personal feeling, or based on any facts or real evidence.
Re: Random: Some Rare Fans Are Upset About The Latest Switch Online Announcement
@Faucet,
Yes because Rare have been so prolofic ever since Nintendo dropped them, I would say Nintendo dodged a huge bullet with this one.

Re: More Switch 2 Rumours Surface In New "Exclusive" From Reuters
@SwitchForce,
Not many though.
Re: More Switch 2 Rumours Surface In New "Exclusive" From Reuters
**** Rumor story check list ****
Article based on previous rumors, about rumors, with little to no facts.... check!
Insert known source to give credibility... like Reuters.... check!
Sprinkle in somebody who worked on the chip for the last console... like Nvidia......... check!
Usually add an analyst to give a little more weight to it.... check!
Then reffer back to previous unfounded rumor articles, and claim this somehow supports them, even though most totally contradict each other... check!
Secret unamed source.... check!
Yes all the usual ingredients to make basically any rumor, that if you wait long enough is bound to happen, and at least be partly correct.
Could we not leave all this to those desperate YouTuber's with very few subscribers, and even less vews.
