Gaming in bed is awesome. Even though I have a PS4 and a 4K TV in the bedroom, I still spend more time on Switch or Remote Play. Just much more comfortable playing a handheld while laying down.

The problem with multiplats on the Switch is the performance is a bit rough. I bought Doom and WWE 2K18 to test out a few multiplats, and both games feel like I am playing in slow motion, especially WWE 2K18. Firing up the Vita for Remote Play from my PS4 Pro offers a better expereince in both games. Based on those results, I have no interest in buying another Multiplat on the Switch. 

With the Switch being so big, the only time I can carry it with me on the go is when I have an extra beg. In these situations I am typically traveling, and have Wifi, were I can get the better expereince via Remote Play. The Switch is nice for flights, but I the couple dozen times I could use it a year just doesn't justify buying multiplats on it.

 It is a great system for Nintendo games. They are doing excellent making their titles work great in both home and handheld mode. When it comes to Multiplats though, I can get a much better expereince at Home and on the go Via both Sony and Microsofts platforms.

Yeah, but you'll need to have both devices (which few people do) and can't change the game in your PS4 drive while on the go. But I can understand why you prefer playing multiplats on the Vita through remote play.

@bolded: How do you play mobile with microsoft? A laptop is very unwieldy on the go, not even mentioning using anything else than the keyboard then. 

Any Windows device that supports the Xbox App. Pair it with the Xbox One controller and you have the home expereince anywhere. I have only done it once on my sister surface, just to test it out, and it worked quite well. I don't own any other Microsoft devices except the Xbox One X, so I don't use it, but it is very viable for anyone with an Xbox One and a Laptop. You can do the same thing with PS4 and a Laptop or the PlayStation TV. When I go on multi-day trips I bring my PSTV and my DS4, hook up to the Hotel/Motel TV, and Remote Play with that way.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

Are you implying shipped numbers could be way off sell through? Regardless that's what this site is for, though the 20m is shipped so Nintendo will be able to tell us whether they've made it or not.

I don't think they will say anything, but it be would be great if they do.

This sites numbers aren't reliable. the sale through numbers could be very well be off, remember nintendo was finally was able to have enough stock WW to  fulfill demand last quarter.

yeah you bought the worst Switch port which is WWE 2K18 so that's why you think 3rd party performances are rough. South Park, Skyrim, Crash Bandicoot, Dark Souls, Dragon Ball FighterZ, Xenoverse 2, Bayonetta, Xenoverse 2, Fifa 18, NBA 2K18 or L.A. Noire are way better ports than WWE 2K18.

And I think Doom is a very solid port and I love playing it so I can't answer to that point

Smash and Pokemon will likely get that done.

You think a non core Pokemon will cut it though? Genuine question because I haven't kept up with people's interest in it. After they announced that the main game wasn't coming out until (next year?) I lost all interest completely.

So you're just not gonna believe any numbers then?
