Yeah, I think that one is "just because"... you get to see see the results with a  touch of irony ;)

Yeah, but now its clear at least for me. This was not meant to be a ranting thread, but to specify the reasons. The only problem is the price for the vast majority. As in my case, many of the ones complaining would have say nothing if the console were lets say, $250 for starters. 

If the extra joycons and the PRO controller would be in the $50~$60 price range, many others would have not be complaining as well.

If they explain the online fee (price, features, free games) a lot les complainers.

I think Nintendo lacks a good marketing department. They could have had a triumphant presentation with no one saying a "but", but, they kind of screwd up a little bit. Needless to say, I wont but a Switch at $299, but Ill be getting one in the long run.

1) price of console
2) no home console bundle (no joy cons, a Pro controller instead.
3) price of accessories



To me it's peripherals and game prices. The console itself is ok. 250 would have been amazing. They overcharge in Europe and really should have had it for 299€ inkluding tax, but oh well.

What really bothers me is the price on those peripherals. And 70€ for Zelda? WHOFF.

Or it's all of the reasons people have been bringing up for the last 14 pages...



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

As a PC gamer I have to say that the online paywall the main problem for me.



No free online... That's kinda it...
