xenoblade x2, fire emblem warriors would love shin towads 2017 holiday for na release, the big games will sell big too, too hard to find a switch now, and not the light switch xd. ps real fire emblem hope for q1 or q2 2018 for na release
i still think nintendo is waiting on smah bros version for switch or new one that has both wii u and 3ds, i hope e3 gets those amiibos dated, still hyped about fe warriors, can't decide to get both or swith version, would not mend b3, and ff7 remake on switch this year or next would like Xenoblade Chronicles 2 to use shulk amiibo for a small befit or get a few more new ones.
i went to my local gamestop, and they would take my 3ds xl red in great condition for about 80 towards a switch, i'm hoping another gamestop wil tell me differently tomorrow, note this is w/o pro membership note my store is in Pa
@Anti-Matter variants can happen, don't think wii u get one from Nintendo,but knowing them in the past, they will want to keep same dock ,joy-cons, most likely x1 custom, for them to function about the same. But if the newer guy has greed, then it will need mini dock, xl dock, more expansive for us consumers New switch midgen x2 custom,better battery life, new dock 4k, improved joy cons, all under $400, bonuses can be improved internal memory, better card reader,better sdxc reader if i can dream a bit mini will need to be charper, xl expect 350 tops
@UK-Nintendo for xenoblade chronicle x i thought it was alot better if u did have enough internal space for it as far as stuff goes,
seams nintendo wants digital over physical, not only rewards, but now gameload,
my ? is it worth easy trade in or ebay,over tied to your account
best buy games club is 20% of physical games, amazon has something similar believe, Can 3rd or 2nd or 1st party , do black friday deals every month? Taget sometimes does the buy2 get one free, toyrus buy1 get on 40%off sometimes, and then theres games that price drops every so often so that 60 is now40, the 40 is now 30 the 30 is now 20 for physical ones, while digital stays about the same.
once your internal storage is full u buy sd card unless u are fine deleting old stuff, so i hope eshop games reflects some of what they don't need ,but you might.
i'm not asking nintendo to make v1.1 with 128gb internal storage for switch, but maybe something to help loading times for games u buy physically. i know its far to early for the half gen upgrade for specs and stuff. i think its still a but early for digital only for the masses.
edited this is w/o tax in usd
10 switch games retail for 60 so thats 600
10 switch games with 20% off 60 is 480 + membership costs
10switch game with buy 1 one get 40% off is 480
10 switch games with buy 2 get 1for 60 free is 420
10 switch games retail sale each costs 40 400
i'll be generous with gb size wise but like 10 gb ave each 100 gb expect 3rd and 2nd party and first to eat it; up plenty for indies for like 26 gb internal storage
so if u don't delete u need 128 gb or better,min of like 40$
so thats like 640 at worst-cost for digital
and Nintendo gets more in there bank for digital
so 640- 400 is 240 almost enough for a 2nd switch, or other gaming consoles.
aliens , bad idea , hyrule wars might be fine, rockstar link risky spin off possible, biker link can be possible if gannon comes back and is based on today's world or another evil doer. Hipster link how can, he be a silent protagonist and that? Yo hoie where's gannon's lair and can u take it there home boy?
zelda has a theme, but mostly not advanced tech, boss are from the world he lives in, mostly fantasy setting, not sci, does save some or all persons, restores peace, travel, explore, solve puzzles, deals with super natural beings.
leave aliens to Samus Aran and make a Real Metroid!
this months full of no spending again, was expecting better games, at this point I'd rather take gold for 30% off anything, plat up to 20% off that's been on the market for 5 months or longer, it seams this month might be my worst month in a long time. at least EU had Zelda last month for discounts. Also maybe replacement for Reggie would be nice or do a real switch bundle with a game announcement. also dieing to see how fe goes for my nintendo for fe heroes on Mobile within 24 hours
another battery disappointment if 3 hours playing zelda was not bad enough til its dead for 1 full charge. i think i like might like a mid gen switch with a replaceable battery that i can do it myself for under $50 today. So much as for o its almost dead; saves game, o wait i have to charge it, not do a 5 min switch for the battery. (sarcasm) and snaps. Better go with extended warranty this time i'll need it. (Ponders O this is why no CE Switchs with games included makes perfect choice now ppl have hard time parting with CE items. Glad i'll use external storage for game saves, dlc, game itself, another perfect choice for 32 GB internal memory not much space wasted when u cant get the switch to switch on. another expanse for consumer. Well now i can't complain about internal storage Hoping 3 to 4 years at the b4 its used up and i'll miss it. Also ponders why they call it a home console, $60 games, battery can't play on the go onces its gone, expansive accessory's, lets add paid online service while we at it.
This sounds worse than the wii u right now til they name a price from a profitable range. Switch is all about switch your money, money, and more money .Name makes total sense now.
ps my ds still works fine without charging in 5-6 years ago
@thesilverbrick , Nintendo know that wii u was a failure at that time , and said we want profit, make amiibo stuff to add to the game and port it over to the switch and take your time, want it done holiday 2016, or march 2017 at deadline more or less. untill i beat it once its comes out, i'll see how many different stuff it has compared to other zelda games thats open world, if it looked rushed or waiting on amiibo production to keep up, switch production, other switch games too.
i do want botw to be great a bit more than having rest of the smash bros line.
@audiobrainiac for web browser it has not been shown off, or conformed for launch day so it would be possibility not to have one at start, there could be a chance that system update to include it on day one.
hoping for a new smash with 3 amiibo due last year for half price for dragging their buttholes, if its ported better contain both wii u and 3ds versions and new sub emissary for only $60 or better have 1.5 char and stages, better hear something near e3 for them, usual treatment keeps things worse for overdue stuff. seams they are busy with all kinds recent amiibos announcements, but the one they pretended to start on last year, one of the reasons why i'm waiting on a deal b4 getting switch, or a nice limited zelda switch ed gaming system i'm not getting burned again. ps still have quite the backlog of games, i do have some patience left but it looks like Nintendo enjoys making us wait for the smash switch announcement for those 3 which is not cool, and let me guess store exclusives again! but i'm guessing smash bros this year or next, or i'll forgot buying them. not too happy about game a gets 10 amiibo game b gets 2 amiibo game c gets none (pub forgot paywall) and does not produce the ones we want. (zelda was delayed for amiibos and released on switch no question.) and yes wolf link gamestop sold separately next month at usa.
@Ps4all i'm pretty sure we will get new versions at some point, based on older hardware xp, probable not with the wii u this time from Nintendo , no real proof, just instinct. i'll say this the largely depends on units sold and games gear toward that makes money. kids might want a smaller one, adults more power as a example.
names guesses could be coughs
who wants a New switch instead of switch? plays all switch and new switch games (similar to new3ds)
who wants a Portable switch?
who wants a home console switch?
who wants switch xl?
who wants mini switch?
who wants switch sandwich? (joke)
unless Nintendo tries something different with naming schemes.
switch is a hybrid
@SharkAttackU guessing stores a really lazy, have trouble with numbers, stores like to slash consoles at $50 a time easy, its too hard for them to just go from 279. to 229.99 maybe its harder to read people's spending habits.
reactions 249.99 well its not 200 but its nicer than 300
reactions 299.99 man its not 250 glad its not 350
reactions 3:49.99 i'll get it on sale for 300 maybe
reactions 199:99 day one buy
reactions 99:99 sign me up i'll take 5 for 1 myself, 1 for bro, 2 for my niece and nephew,( 1 for my boss. (big raise ))
reactions for .99 everyone can get one. no brainer
@DarkKirby hope switch does good, i do think 3ds is starting to phase out, but not quite the new 3ds, personally i got about 25 games for 3ds thats aaa, wii u for new games like 6 aaa, more of a vc purchases and eshop indies this time around. id be okay if i got atleast 13 AAA thats new stuff for me to buy personally thats hinted at and facted, fe warriors, fe main 2018, xenoblade 2, Shin Megami Tensei, Project Octopath Traveler, zelda breath of wild, rumors of metroid teaser next year, so i'm about 50% for titles, just for maybe 2 years, alot better than wii u.
@MrPuzzlez
1 better battery life 3hours for zelda is a joke.
2 1st and 2nd party games (insert a game)
3 3rd party games (insert a game)
4 money for system
5 a place to stay when the lights go out, when food spoils over, when robbers take stuff when camera is not on
6 more storage space 32 gb is not cutting it. so 128 sdxc which more money
7 less expansive controllers. save money
8 payed online serviced which could use your smart phone as a way to play online (more money)
@audiobrainiac they are atleast thinking about getting those apps, should be easy to do with ac wifi, battery life is another story for longer time away from home.
@TheBigK and @elhozzo there is always a chance for hardware revisions, which could change screen-size, maybe without a dock but much better battery life, this is based on 3ds, 2ds, 3ds xl, new 3d new 3ds xl, wii, wii mini, gameboy advanced, gameboy advanced sp, as far as nintendo does things, and i'll just bs about 4k dock for 4k tvs at 60 fps for another hardware revision, would need much better cpu, ram, and graghics cards, heat sinks, fans etc.
for me 99% as home console , when visiting others as a handle, bring a ac for power to free up the tv, its a bit too big for black friday camp overs not to say the battery life needs 4x for zelda
hoping a replacing battery is easy and not too expansive, hopefully someone will make one then maybe then it might do better as a handle. Would do fine for 1 way commutes, bring a ac to charge it at lunch or breaks if it takes longer than 1 hour and 30 mins. we don't know how long it takes to boot up at this point.
the big thing is price per month, then 3 months or 1 year if its worse than ms and sony it wil fail, which is a good thing, if they skip on penny s for a dollars, the deals would have to be like atleast 10% off , maybe up to 50% of a few games on your list if it like 60 dollars a year lucky for me online games i expect are maybe fire emblem warriors and main one, smash bros without a doubt for the ones i will get sooner or later will not really need switch for maybe 10 months if im generous. only xenoblade 2 might come out this year, not sure on fire emblem warriors. i'll be playing new zelda on my wii u, so i don't have to worry about dust after i beat zelda on switch if i would have gotten it. Only e3 can change my mind sooner than black friday. i got burned on wii u early on, maybe its time for nintendo to got of its high horse, ps might get zelda for cheap on switch sometime, if its cheaper and easier for online, i would expect online multiplayer games to be able to be done in real time, real player in turn based ones, id better look better for $60, if its about $60 a year
launch is bad for me, only have 2 of them this year for certain Zelda and xenoblade 2 reggie coughed metroid announcement in about year so i really can wait around, i'll keep tabs open news
no zelda bundle with switch at launch, no included game for it, no lessons learned, storage joke, accessory prices high, i'm going to say this ceo wants money than more affordable accessory's, sorry not near launch day buy, ony xb2, fe warriors, maybe otho from sony, can get breath on wii u than dust for a change. maketing needs overhaul like blah blah lets get 5 mill for 300, maybe 1 m for high priced accessory , right man system with game makes sense, Zelda bundle switch with pro controllar 400 lets get 10 mill for 400 prints money only losing 30 dollars each but its zelda. we can get 5 mil for reasonbly price accessorys. 60
CEO i like 300 no games included, 80 joy con, joy in my wallet, 3.700 bil don't want, wants 150 mil now sounds good for investors not players, players will buy games at 60 so thats like 180 mil genius and give that guy a raise again.
needless to say not getting one any time soon after launch. and they could get a NewSwitch in 1 or 2 years of course needs all new stuff again.
well i do like game more than metroid warriors money wise, can use fe amiibo in smash, i can only hope stat gains are fixed for lvling, classing, reclassing, promoting, hope weapons don't break, if this is not going to be a turn based game, hope you don't get wrong weapon or can change depending on your class freely, might be nice if we got a town like fate, thinking gold for currency, hope fights are not one on one, most of the time. hope for easy stat increasing drops but does show limites, could do relationship bonus as well, kids too.
@leo13 from my personal xp, it is great game, some fun mini there in the games, im not trying to convenience you to buy it, but if u have a computer that can run steam software u can buy it there for about $12 just throwing you some options, and they can do refunds if u have trouble, not sure if ff 7 is on ipad or iphones, or andriod.
if theirs a limited bundle with Zelda i'll go to that store, if theirs bundle with Zelda and makes sense to buy them together i'll buy it at that store, i'm hope its not the rumored 2mill at launch. price and with it comes with it is deal maker or breaker. would not mind going to NYC even it takes me 7 hours to get there and park.
@leo13 that mostly depends on square but it could even be a cash grab, not really do anything with cloud amiibo when they make it for other bonuses. and would you want the old one or the hd one? if cloud amiibo gets sold out, Sony might think easy cash cow, considering they have dev kits. Or the other way is switch because the wii's units sold so it would make no sense to try for 100mill.potentially buyers.
@Ryu_Niiyama never bought or played a Dsi, i got my ds with metroid hunters demo back then. did not seam like real worth to upgrade. i think ds was last region free.
@Moshugan Online multiplayer for classic VC titles would be fantastic too, but not gonna happen.
Those games could get a remaster; hd version potentially, if it was of the selling points from those games, or at bare 2 players using joy cons, or pro controllers should go without saying so.
hopes $250 basic system, $300 with a game, $340 to $350 game plus pro controller, bundle guesses, Zelda, splatoon, or Mario? would like a limited ed bundle for Zelda, otherwise they really need replace their pr division and marketing division. vc discounts or free shared among your wii u and 3ds that u bought. for gc vc would like Zelda 4 swords with a online mode coop and or local if docked, final fantasy crystal chronicles with a online mode coop and or local if docked if Square might try to do a few more releases for switch at some point. would welcome Metroid Prime 4 announcement or teaser within 2 days or e3 i do hope that the rumor about sdxc is true for expandable storage up to 128gb, if they don't like usb for storage, rather not have to delete internal storage over and over for big games, and dlc, since i think storage might be 32 gb at the low end, considering the console size i would not expect a 500 gb hard drive. High end size could be 64gb or if we are a bit lucky 128gb considering the game sizes could be 16Gb or higher for digital download. just guessing based on pricing; hope ports do add value to it than a cash grab.
@River3636 a new IP ca be good and bad, if the new ip take off , other IPs get lower priority, IP flunked, lose of money, lose of jobs, company goes under. i would welcome ideas but if its something i don't want i don't get. what if mario on switch only sold 1 mill software with 5 aaa games using mario in it. what if splatoon on switch sold 100 mill day 1. nintendo would be trying new ips and letting old ones left undeveloped . more risk more money in that case, vs more of the same thing over and over again but a bit different each time.
@LARSUSMAKSIMUS , i really don't think they are aiming for high end gaming pcs , to have them convert to them, but would u rather spent 500 dollars on a console with 4 to 5 aaa games u like, or 3k on the pc plus 60 dollars each game if your lucky, and replace it within 6 years?
i would say specs play a key role too weak is bad, getting install base early on is a key role, software release is key role, more software more hardware sells more 3rd party support,
i'll agree switch vs ps pro or ms scop spec wise is a joke, px4 or xbox one might be a bit under powered, however nintendo does have more 1st party and 2nd party support for each gaming system and yeah is mobile worth it? for buyers If we got all favs at launch, 1 3d zelda, 2d zelda, new smash bros, real metroid, donkey kong, splatoon, 3d mario, 2d mario, general sports game, xenoblades, we would easily get wii like units sold off the bat, offset they would need to hold back another 5 years to do the same launch on their next system, while ps and xbox can go easy more 3 to 5 years later for new system, since their systems cycles a lot longer for hardware consoles
$250 is good for the standard, hoping for a zelda limited bundle under $350 for game, more storage, pro controller, praying, i don't think theirs going to be a mario bundle at launch, splatoon has a chance. unrealistic Metroid 4 Prime: the metroid we hold off from 3ds and wii u , switch bundle because we want everything going to switch within 1 year of launch (insert evil laugh to screw our current install base hahaha!) we want people to switch over to our switch lol! hence the name ,since we don't know how give easy non confusion names next one hum how about the New Switch for mid life? and plays switch games and only New switch games. Seriously we can only like have 2 skus for switch at launch if some rumors are true. i don't think they can make it lower without losing more $,$$$,$$$,$$$,$$$,$$$ vs 8 mill unsold units this year
price factor is okay, after Zelda only a few old ports for 6 months i don't necessary need it day 1 still have them.
@River3636 Spatoon did great for how wii u sold, but im not in their target age, i tend to buy teenage and up games, hyrule warriors did great too both 3ds and wii u, fe # was not bad, the worst console for me for total owned game wise was snes, just had like 4 games, secret of mana, link to past, super metroid, i think blastoid with super scope for single player. handheld wise gameboy color pretty much pokemon. but the thing with new ips its usually a bit riskier unless your target group makes up a great number of units sold. like when smash bros came out it was a nice, but if u look at code steam for 3ds it was very bad that used fire emblem amiibos, i will say everyone has different tastes for games. i buy games i'm into, not to keep who ever made it to the market staying there. Nintendo trys to solve problems with mario mario and more mario, not too much at how to use the ips we own in a timely manner, soloutions hire more developers with use ips that did okay in the past. if software output is more of the problem try to get more exclusive games does not have to use any of your own ips.
@River3636 Xenoblade Chronicles sequel even would be nice, ff was not the metroid we wanted, other m had some moments, i think ff was just a rushed job just for something so we did not forgot about it, not really time stoper, if they stop trying too many experiments or bad judgement calls on it; it could be okay, zero mission and metroid fusion was okay 2d, primes great, id give them 1 more time with samus as a playable char in a prime game, i think a metroid warrior one would be okay just for rise of for metroid awareness . Prime game has to be 1st party only with help from select 2nd party to change its image. for halo like, recore was decent as far as i saw it. i used final fantasy as a joke one, but if it does get wii like units sold theres atleast a 1% chance that we might get a title. nintendo has to be more flexible when choosing their target audience, spin off are turn off if its been way to long, how good are the development teams that are trying something similar to that audience and expect it to work, spin off are okay if we have a good idea that theirs really ones coming to that system, if they really can't manage it , they should look to sell the ip, as long as they get all games for their systems too. id even say a 2d metroid maker might be okay ,i know its not that original, it could shake things up in a better way, vr metroid would be nice . Nintendo needs to figure out what happened and how to fix it next time and not break whats not broken.
@River3636 I'll say for stuff thats not even on this page for my switch wish list
Metroid prime 4 : the real Metroid game with Samus kicking buts and taking names from bad guys. trying to be within rating and finding nice places for power ups.
Xenoblade chonicle x sequal
fire emblem warriors (spin off)
fire emblem (main) is pretty much a giving at this point not speculated how long it will take within 3 years could be nice
knowing Nintendo most likely another multiplayer Zelda game
fire emblem fe# sequel something bayonetta release for wii u
my unrealistic that would not happen would be final fantasy 17 switch exclusive with female party members
now the one that has a bit more of a chance metroid warriors; a space anonymity happened space time continuum that brought all of the characters together at planet (Nintendo xyz) to battle for resources, battle bases, ships, research labs, and a way to stop the anonymity to restore all living beings, places, things, and time as they should be.
Instead of using melee weapons as primary weapons, u simple: shot, dodge, charge up shot for more damage, missile attacks, maybe ship attacks for pin down attacks, events kill the metroids in time, kill omega metroid b4 it gets too strong, stop space pirates from supply run, save the weak fed trooper from space pirates,etc, Playable characters Samus suited, zero suit samus elite space pirate, Mother Brain standing on 2 legs, ridley, metal ridley fed trooper, bounty hunters, Dark samus, SA-X, chrozo ghosts, chrozo statues, hachling metroid full size, other mini boss, or boss that can have move and other strong allies or helpers with dealing with current threat with the various games to advance the plot or goal.
For me this time after getting burned from Wii U bought it close after launch I'll might wait for some games to come out b4 getting the system. Only got like 9 games AAA total, half old vc and 15 eshop games non retail disc , if the wii u gotten even a spin off metroid i would not feel so burned, i don't blame 3rd party's this time, id say price and lack of ads ruined it and like no prices drops every few years, like smash bros enhanced port, xenoblade chonicles x enhanced port, new fire emblem, maybe what's Monolith soft and retro is developing respectfully, real metroid game, depending on the warriors game using Nintendo IP, not sure on Zelda botw system to use, if there's a bundle or limited bundle with Zelda I'd most likely Pre-order it if it's a good deal.it The price matters most i think this time, if its really 250 retail for basic one it has huge chance for wii numbers i take retail price with tons of salt, also wonders how many Confirmed games at launch out of those 17 i hope at-least 1/3 at launch.
@rjejr I think Nintendo did not really try to sell Wii U last holiday and no price drops , seams Nintendo being Nintendo , trying to not look like Wii U at all, all the retailers will most likely but rushed to get who preorders done in time and I'm willing to say it will be understocked if price info is right, preorders should have been done about 3 months ago with details of there's more than 1 sku and at least 1 party games listed for launch or close to launch date. It's not cool for them to make everyone hurry up when gearing up for launch. Keep getting in mind if there PR works they will do this next time but I think price is the bigger factor this time 250 is great compared to Wii U 350 launch price id like them to do more info around 6 months b4 it comes out .

i still think nintendo is waiting on smah bros version for switch or new one that has both wii u and 3ds, i hope e3 gets those amiibos dated, still hyped about fe warriors, can't decide to get both or swith version, would not mend b3, and ff7 remake on switch this year or next would like Xenoblade Chronicles 2 to use shulk amiibo for a small befit or get a few more new ones.

Re: Nintendo Switch Chip X-Ray Suggests The Console Is Running A Stock Nvidia Tegra X1
@Anti-Matter variants can happen, don't think wii u get one from Nintendo,but knowing them in the past, they will want to keep same dock ,joy-cons, most likely x1 custom, for them to function about the same. But if the newer guy has greed, then it will need mini dock, xl dock, more expansive for us consumers
New switch midgen x2 custom,better battery life, new dock 4k, improved joy cons, all under $400, bonuses can be improved internal memory, better card reader,better sdxc reader if i can dream a bit
mini will need to be charper, xl expect 350 tops
Re: Video: Digital Foundry Shows How to Get the Fastest Load Times on Nintendo Switch
@UK-Nintendo for xenoblade chronicle x i thought it was alot better if u did have enough internal space for it as far as stuff goes,
seams nintendo wants digital over physical, not only rewards, but now gameload,
my ? is it worth easy trade in or ebay,over tied to your account
best buy games club is 20% of physical games, amazon has something similar believe, Can 3rd or 2nd or 1st party , do black friday deals every month? Taget sometimes does the buy2 get one free, toyrus buy1 get on 40%off sometimes, and then theres games that price drops every so often so that 60 is now40, the 40 is now 30 the 30 is now 20 for physical ones, while digital stays about the same.
once your internal storage is full u buy sd card unless u are fine deleting old stuff, so i hope eshop games reflects some of what they don't need ,but you might.
i'm not asking nintendo to make v1.1 with 128gb internal storage for switch, but maybe something to help loading times for games u buy physically. i know its far to early for the half gen upgrade for specs and stuff. i think its still a but early for digital only for the masses.
edited this is w/o tax in usd
10 switch games retail for 60 so thats 600
10 switch games with 20% off 60 is 480 + membership costs
10switch game with buy 1 one get 40% off is 480
10 switch games with buy 2 get 1for 60 free is 420
10 switch games retail sale each costs 40 400
i'll be generous with gb size wise but like 10 gb ave each 100 gb expect 3rd and 2nd party and first to eat it; up plenty for indies for like 26 gb internal storage
so if u don't delete u need 128 gb or better,min of like 40$
so thats like 640 at worst-cost for digital
and Nintendo gets more in there bank for digital
so 640- 400 is 240 almost enough for a 2nd switch, or other gaming consoles.
Re: Zelda: Breath of the Wild GDC Presentation Shows Off Dev Process and Bizarre Early Concepts

Hipster link how can, he be a silent protagonist and that? Yo hoie where's gannon's lair and can u take it there home boy?
zelda has a theme, but mostly not advanced tech, boss are from the world he lives in, mostly fantasy setting, not sci, does save some or all persons, restores peace, travel, explore, solve puzzles, deals with super natural beings.

Re: Nintendo Will Replace Your Dead Switch Battery, At A Cost
another battery disappointment if 3 hours playing zelda was not bad enough til its dead for 1 full charge. i think i like might like a mid gen switch with a replaceable battery that i can do it myself for under $50 today. So much as for o its almost dead; saves game, o wait i have to charge it, not do a 5 min switch for the battery. (sarcasm) and snaps. Better go with extended warranty this time i'll need it. (Ponders O this is why no CE Switchs with games included makes perfect choice now ppl have hard time parting with CE items. Glad i'll use external storage for game saves, dlc, game itself, another perfect choice for 32 GB internal memory not much space wasted when u cant get the switch to switch on. another expanse for consumer. Well now i can't complain about internal storage Hoping 3 to 4 years at the b4 its used up and i'll miss it. Also ponders why they call it a home console, $60 games, battery can't play on the go onces its gone, expansive accessory's, lets add paid online service while we at it.
This sounds worse than the wii u right now til they name a price from a profitable range. Switch is all about switch your money, money, and more money .Name makes total sense now.
ps my ds still works fine without charging in 5-6 years ago
Re: Talking Point: Important Features Yet to be Revealed for the Nintendo Switch
another thing web browser info, it comes or not? i'm guessing Nintendo wants ppl to talk about the switch as much as possible,
Re: Rumour: A New CPSIA Listing Implies More Smash Bros. amiibo Are Coming
@thesilverbrick , Nintendo know that wii u was a failure at that time , and said we want profit, make amiibo stuff to add to the game and port it over to the switch and take your time, want it done holiday 2016, or march 2017 at deadline more or less. untill i beat it once its comes out, i'll see how many different stuff it has compared to other zelda games thats open world, if it looked rushed or waiting on amiibo production to keep up, switch production, other switch games too.
i do want botw to be great a bit more than having rest of the smash bros line.
Re: Talking Point: Is the Nintendo Switch a Handheld or Console? Does it Matter?
@audiobrainiac for web browser it has not been shown off, or conformed for launch day so it would be possibility not to have one at start, there could be a chance that system update to include it on day one.
Re: Rumour: A New CPSIA Listing Implies More Smash Bros. amiibo Are Coming
hoping for a new smash with 3 amiibo due last year for half price for dragging their buttholes, if its ported better contain both wii u and 3ds versions and new sub emissary for only $60 or better have 1.5 char and stages, better hear something near e3 for them, usual treatment keeps things worse for overdue stuff. seams they are busy with all kinds recent amiibos announcements, but the one they pretended to start on last year, one of the reasons why i'm waiting on a deal b4 getting switch, or a nice limited zelda switch ed gaming system i'm not getting burned again. ps still have quite the backlog of games, i do have some patience left but it looks like Nintendo enjoys making us wait for the smash switch announcement for those 3 which is not cool, and let me guess store exclusives again! but i'm guessing smash bros this year or next, or i'll forgot buying them.
not too happy about game a gets 10 amiibo game b gets 2 amiibo game c gets none (pub forgot paywall) and does not produce the ones we want. (zelda was delayed for amiibos and released on switch no question.) and yes wolf link gamestop sold separately next month at usa.
Re: Talking Point: Is the Nintendo Switch a Handheld or Console? Does it Matter?
@Ps4all i'm pretty sure we will get new versions at some point, based on older hardware xp, probable not with the wii u this time from Nintendo , no real proof, just instinct. i'll say this the largely depends on units sold and games gear toward that makes money. kids might want a smaller one, adults more power as a example.
names guesses could be coughs
who wants a New switch instead of switch? plays all switch and new switch games (similar to new3ds)
who wants a Portable switch?
who wants a home console switch?
who wants switch xl?
who wants mini switch?
who wants switch sandwich? (joke)
unless Nintendo tries something different with naming schemes.
switch is a hybrid
Re: Talking Point: Is the Nintendo Switch a Handheld or Console? Does it Matter?
@SharkAttackU guessing stores a really lazy, have trouble with numbers, stores like to slash consoles at $50 a time easy, its too hard for them to just go from 279. to 229.99 maybe its harder to read people's spending habits.
reactions 249.99 well its not 200 but its nicer than 300
reactions 299.99 man its not 250 glad its not 350
reactions 3:49.99 i'll get it on sale for 300 maybe
reactions 199:99 day one buy
reactions 99:99 sign me up i'll take 5 for 1 myself, 1 for bro, 2 for my niece and nephew,( 1 for my boss. (big raise ))
reactions for .99 everyone can get one. no brainer
Re: Talking Point: Is the Nintendo Switch a Handheld or Console? Does it Matter?
@DarkKirby hope switch does good, i do think 3ds is starting to phase out, but not quite the new 3ds, personally i got about 25 games for 3ds thats aaa, wii u for new games like 6 aaa, more of a vc purchases and eshop indies this time around.
id be okay if i got atleast 13 AAA thats new stuff for me to buy personally thats hinted at and facted, fe warriors, fe main 2018, xenoblade 2, Shin Megami Tensei, Project Octopath Traveler, zelda breath of wild, rumors of metroid teaser next year, so i'm about 50% for titles, just for maybe 2 years, alot better than wii u.
Re: Talking Point: Is the Nintendo Switch a Handheld or Console? Does it Matter?
@Frosty_09 2.5 hours is kind of low, a better battery would do wonders for portable side, for when not at home to recharge.
Re: Talking Point: Is the Nintendo Switch a Handheld or Console? Does it Matter?
@audiobrainiac i'm not sure if we even get a web browser, i like being prepared for things too, ps got a 128 gb sdxc for expansion slot already,
Re: Talking Point: Is the Nintendo Switch a Handheld or Console? Does it Matter?
@MrPuzzlez
1 better battery life 3hours for zelda is a joke.
2 1st and 2nd party games (insert a game)
3 3rd party games (insert a game)
4 money for system
5 a place to stay when the lights go out, when food spoils over, when robbers take stuff when camera is not on
6 more storage space 32 gb is not cutting it. so 128 sdxc which more money
7 less expansive controllers. save money
8 payed online serviced which could use your smart phone as a way to play online (more money)
Re: Talking Point: Is the Nintendo Switch a Handheld or Console? Does it Matter?
@audiobrainiac they are atleast thinking about getting those apps, should be easy to do with ac wifi, battery life is another story for longer time away from home.
Re: Talking Point: Is the Nintendo Switch a Handheld or Console? Does it Matter?
@TheBigK and @elhozzo there is always a chance for hardware revisions, which could change screen-size, maybe without a dock but much better battery life, this is based on 3ds, 2ds, 3ds xl, new 3d new 3ds xl, wii, wii mini, gameboy advanced, gameboy advanced sp, as far as nintendo does things, and i'll just bs about 4k dock for 4k tvs at 60 fps for another hardware revision, would need much better cpu, ram, and graghics cards, heat sinks, fans etc.
Re: Talking Point: Handheld or Console? - With Nintendo Switch, Does it Matter?
for me 99% as home console , when visiting others as a handle, bring a ac for power to free up the tv, its a bit too big for black friday camp overs not to say the battery life needs 4x for zelda
hoping a replacing battery is easy and not too expansive, hopefully someone will make one then maybe then it might do better as a handle. Would do fine for 1 way commutes, bring a ac to charge it at lunch or breaks if it takes longer than 1 hour and 30 mins. we don't know how long it takes to boot up at this point.
Re: Breaking Down the Nintendo Switch Online Service Details
@Urameshi
they are banking on zelda til splatoon 2, if anyone buying it for online and does not know about fall change id feel sorry for them
i rember wii u lineup was atleast time wise better, but not too much worth the trouble.
Re: Breaking Down the Nintendo Switch Online Service Details
the big thing is price per month, then 3 months or 1 year if its worse than ms and sony it wil fail, which is a good thing, if they skip on penny s for a dollars, the deals would have to be like atleast 10% off , maybe up to 50% of a few games on your list if it like 60 dollars a year
lucky for me online games i expect are maybe fire emblem warriors and main one, smash bros without a doubt for the ones i will get sooner or later will not really need switch for maybe 10 months if im generous. only xenoblade 2 might come out this year, not sure on fire emblem warriors. i'll be playing new zelda on my wii u, so i don't have to worry about dust after i beat zelda on switch if i would have gotten it. Only e3 can change my mind sooner than black friday. i got burned on wii u early on, maybe its time for nintendo to got of its high horse, ps might get zelda for cheap on switch sometime,
if its cheaper and easier for online, i would expect online multiplayer games to be able to be done in real time, real player in turn based ones, id better look better for $60, if its about $60 a year
launch is bad for me, only have 2 of them this year for certain Zelda and xenoblade 2
reggie coughed metroid announcement in about year so i really can wait around, i'll keep tabs open news
Re: Hands On: Putting the Nintendo Switch Hardware Through Its Paces
no zelda bundle with switch at launch, no included game for it, no lessons learned, storage joke, accessory prices high, i'm going to say this ceo wants money than more affordable accessory's, sorry not near launch day buy, ony xb2, fe warriors, maybe otho from sony, can get breath on wii u than dust for a change. maketing needs overhaul like blah blah lets get 5 mill for 300, maybe 1 m for high priced accessory , right man system with game makes sense, Zelda bundle switch with pro controllar 400 lets get 10 mill for 400 prints money only losing 30 dollars each but its zelda. we can get 5 mil for reasonbly price accessorys. 60
CEO i like 300 no games included, 80 joy con, joy in my wallet, 3.700 bil don't want, wants 150 mil now sounds good for investors not players, players will buy games at 60 so thats like 180 mil genius and give that guy a raise again.
needless to say not getting one any time soon after launch. and they could get a NewSwitch in 1 or 2 years of course needs all new stuff again.
Re: Fire Emblem Nintendo Direct Confirmed for 18th January
well i do like game more than metroid warriors money wise, can use fe amiibo in smash, i can only hope stat gains are fixed for lvling, classing, reclassing, promoting, hope weapons don't break, if this is not going to be a turn based game, hope you don't get wrong weapon or can change depending on your class freely, might be nice if we got a town like fate, thinking gold for currency, hope fights are not one on one, most of the time. hope for easy stat increasing drops but does show limites, could do relationship bonus as well, kids too.
Re: Nintendo Switch to Introduce Paid Online Service in Autumn / Fall
other than maybe smash bros and chancy fire emblem warriors not too much so far, bettter be under $60 a year with some perks.
Re: Feature: Our Hopes and Expectations for the Nintendo Switch Presentation
@leo13 from my personal xp, it is great game, some fun mini there in the games, im not trying to convenience you to buy it, but if u have a computer that can run steam software u can buy it there for about $12 just throwing you some options, and they can do refunds if u have trouble, not sure if ff 7 is on ipad or iphones, or andriod.
Re: Nintendo NY Store Confirms A 'Limited Quantity of Pre-Orders' for Nintendo Switch on 13th January
if theirs a limited bundle with Zelda i'll go to that store, if theirs bundle with Zelda and makes sense to buy them together i'll buy it at that store, i'm hope its not the rumored 2mill at launch.
price and with it comes with it is deal maker or breaker.
would not mind going to NYC even it takes me 7 hours to get there and park.
Re: Feature: Our Hopes and Expectations for the Nintendo Switch Presentation
@leo13 that mostly depends on square but it could even be a cash grab, not really do anything with cloud amiibo when they make it for other bonuses. and would you want the old one or the hd one?
if cloud amiibo gets sold out, Sony might think easy cash cow, considering they have dev kits. Or the other way is switch because the wii's units sold so it would make no sense to try for 100mill.potentially buyers.
Re: Feature: Our Hopes and Expectations for the Nintendo Switch Presentation
@Ryu_Niiyama never bought or played a Dsi, i got my ds with metroid hunters demo back then. did not seam like real worth to upgrade. i think ds was last region free.
Re: Feature: Our Hopes and Expectations for the Nintendo Switch Presentation
@Moshugan Online multiplayer for classic VC titles would be fantastic too, but not gonna happen.
Those games could get a remaster; hd version potentially, if it was of the selling points from those games, or at bare 2 players using joy cons, or pro controllers should go without saying so.
Re: Feature: Our Hopes and Expectations for the Nintendo Switch Presentation
hopes $250 basic system, $300 with a game, $340 to $350 game plus pro controller, bundle guesses, Zelda, splatoon, or Mario? would like a limited ed bundle for Zelda, otherwise they really need replace their pr division and marketing division.
vc discounts or free shared among your wii u and 3ds that u bought. for gc vc would like Zelda 4 swords with a online mode coop and or local if docked, final fantasy crystal chronicles with a online mode coop and or local if docked if Square might try to do a few more releases for switch at some point.
would welcome Metroid Prime 4 announcement or teaser within 2 days or e3
i do hope that the rumor about sdxc is true for expandable storage up to 128gb, if they don't like usb for storage, rather not have to delete internal storage over and over for big games, and dlc, since i think storage might be 32 gb at the low end, considering the console size i would not expect a 500 gb hard drive. High end size could be 64gb or if we are a bit lucky 128gb
considering the game sizes could be 16Gb or higher for digital download. just guessing based on pricing; hope ports do add value to it than a cash grab.
Re: Feature: Everything You Need to Know About the Nintendo Switch, So Far
@River3636 a new IP ca be good and bad, if the new ip take off , other IPs get lower priority, IP flunked, lose of money, lose of jobs, company goes under. i would welcome ideas but if its something i don't want i don't get.
what if mario on switch only sold 1 mill software with 5 aaa games using mario in it.
what if splatoon on switch sold 100 mill day 1.
nintendo would be trying new ips and letting old ones left undeveloped .
more risk more money in that case, vs more of the same thing over and over again but a bit different each time.
Re: Soapbox: The Nintendo Switch's Final Specs Don't Matter
@LARSUSMAKSIMUS , i really don't think they are aiming for high end gaming pcs , to have them convert to them, but would u rather spent 500 dollars on a console with 4 to 5 aaa games u like, or 3k on the pc plus 60 dollars each game if your lucky, and replace it within 6 years?
Re: Soapbox: The Nintendo Switch's Final Specs Don't Matter
i would say specs play a key role too weak is bad, getting install base early on is a key role, software release is key role, more software more hardware sells more 3rd party support,
i'll agree switch vs ps pro or ms scop spec wise is a joke,
px4 or xbox one might be a bit under powered,
however nintendo does have more 1st party and 2nd party support for each gaming system
and yeah is mobile worth it? for buyers
If we got all favs at launch, 1 3d zelda, 2d zelda, new smash bros, real metroid, donkey kong, splatoon, 3d mario, 2d mario, general sports game, xenoblades, we would easily get wii like units sold off the bat, offset they would need to hold back another 5 years to do the same launch on their next system,
while ps and xbox can go easy more 3 to 5 years later for new system, since their systems cycles a lot longer for hardware consoles
Re: Best Buy Rumour Reinforces Talk of $250 Nintendo Switch Price
$250 is good for the standard, hoping for a zelda limited bundle under $350 for game, more storage, pro controller, praying, i don't think theirs going to be a mario bundle at launch, splatoon has a chance.
unrealistic Metroid 4 Prime: the metroid we hold off from 3ds and wii u , switch bundle because we want everything going to switch within 1 year of launch (insert evil laugh to screw our current install base hahaha!) we want people to switch over to our switch lol! hence the name ,since we don't know how give easy non confusion names next one hum how about the New Switch for mid life? and plays switch games and only New switch games.
Seriously we can only like have 2 skus for switch at launch if some rumors are true. i don't think they can make it lower without losing more $,$$$,$$$,$$$,$$$,$$$ vs 8 mill unsold units this year
price factor is okay, after Zelda only a few old ports for 6 months i don't necessary need it day 1 still have them.
Re: Feature: Everything You Need to Know About the Nintendo Switch, So Far
@River3636 Spatoon did great for how wii u sold, but im not in their target age, i tend to buy teenage and up games, hyrule warriors did great too both 3ds and wii u, fe # was not bad,
the worst console for me for total owned game wise was snes, just had like 4 games, secret of mana, link to past, super metroid, i think blastoid with super scope for single player. handheld wise gameboy color pretty much pokemon.
but the thing with new ips its usually a bit riskier unless your target group makes up a great number of units sold. like when smash bros came out it was a nice, but if u look at code steam for 3ds it was very bad that used fire emblem amiibos, i will say everyone has different tastes for games. i buy games i'm into, not to keep who ever made it to the market staying there. Nintendo trys to solve problems with mario mario and more mario, not too much at how to use the ips we own in a timely manner, soloutions hire more developers with use ips that did okay in the past. if software output is more of the problem try to get more exclusive games does not have to use any of your own ips.
Re: Feature: Everything You Need to Know About the Nintendo Switch, So Far
@River3636 Xenoblade Chronicles sequel even would be nice, ff was not the metroid we wanted, other m had some moments, i think ff was just a rushed job just for something so we did not forgot about it, not really time stoper, if they stop trying too many experiments or bad judgement calls on it; it could be okay, zero mission and metroid fusion was okay 2d, primes great, id give them 1 more time with samus as a playable char in a prime game, i think a metroid warrior one would be okay just for rise of for metroid awareness . Prime game has to be 1st party only with help from select 2nd party to change its image. for halo like, recore was decent as far as i saw it.
i used final fantasy as a joke one, but if it does get wii like units sold theres atleast a 1% chance that we might get a title. nintendo has to be more flexible when choosing their target audience, spin off are turn off if its been way to long, how good are the development teams that are trying something similar to that audience and expect it to work, spin off are okay if we have a good idea that theirs really ones coming to that system, if they really can't manage it , they should look to sell the ip, as long as they get all games for their systems too. id even say a 2d metroid maker might be okay ,i know its not that original, it could shake things up in a better way, vr metroid would be nice . Nintendo needs to figure out what happened and how to fix it next time and not break whats not broken.
Re: Feature: Everything You Need to Know About the Nintendo Switch, So Far
@River3636 I'll say for stuff thats not even on this page for my switch wish list
Metroid prime 4 : the real Metroid game with Samus kicking buts and taking names from bad guys. trying to be within rating and finding nice places for power ups.
Xenoblade chonicle x sequal
fire emblem warriors (spin off)
fire emblem (main) is pretty much a giving at this point not speculated how long it will take within 3 years could be nice
knowing Nintendo most likely another multiplayer Zelda game
fire emblem fe# sequel something bayonetta release for wii u
my unrealistic that would not happen would be final fantasy 17 switch exclusive with female party members
now the one that has a bit more of a chance metroid warriors; a space anonymity happened space time continuum that brought all of the characters together at planet (Nintendo xyz) to battle for resources, battle bases, ships, research labs, and a way to stop the anonymity to restore all living beings, places, things, and time as they should be.
Instead of using melee weapons as primary weapons, u simple: shot, dodge, charge up shot for more damage, missile attacks, maybe ship attacks for pin down attacks, events kill the metroids in time, kill omega metroid b4 it gets too strong, stop space pirates from supply run, save the weak fed trooper from space pirates,etc, Playable characters Samus suited, zero suit samus elite space pirate, Mother Brain standing on 2 legs, ridley, metal ridley fed trooper, bounty hunters, Dark samus, SA-X, chrozo ghosts, chrozo statues, hachling metroid full size, other mini boss, or boss that can have move and other strong allies or helpers with dealing with current threat with the various games to advance the plot or goal.
Re: Feature: Everything You Need to Know About the Nintendo Switch, So Far
For me this time after getting burned from Wii U bought it close after launch I'll might wait for some games to come out b4 getting the system. Only got like 9 games AAA total, half old vc and 15 eshop games non retail disc , if the wii u gotten even a spin off metroid i would not feel so burned, i don't blame 3rd party's this time, id say price and lack of ads ruined it and like no prices drops every few years, like smash bros enhanced port, xenoblade chonicles x enhanced port, new fire emblem, maybe what's Monolith soft and retro is developing respectfully, real metroid game, depending on the warriors game using Nintendo IP, not sure on Zelda botw system to use, if there's a bundle or limited bundle with Zelda I'd most likely Pre-order it if it's a good deal.it The price matters most i think this time, if its really 250 retail for basic one it has huge chance for wii numbers i take retail price with tons of salt, also wonders how many Confirmed games at launch out of those 17 i hope at-least 1/3 at launch.
Re: Feature: Everything You Need to Know About the Nintendo Switch, So Far
@rjejr I think Nintendo did not really try to sell Wii U last holiday and no price drops , seams Nintendo being Nintendo , trying to not look like Wii U at all, all the retailers will most likely but rushed to get who preorders done in time and I'm willing to say it will be understocked if price info is right, preorders should have been done about 3 months ago with details of there's more than 1 sku and at least 1 party games listed for launch or close to launch date. It's not cool for them to make everyone hurry up when gearing up for launch. Keep getting in mind if there PR works they will do this next time but I think price is the bigger factor this time 250 is great compared to Wii U 350 launch price id like them to do more info around 6 months b4 it comes out .
