Ofc sc2 isn't, how are you supposed to play the game without a keyboard.

You would barely be able to beat the game on casual.

Only 2 real things I can say to someone who thinks this....

The article talks about how much of a pain in the ass it was to convert it to N64 and the series is more complex than it was back then so they dont think its worth the effort to bring it to consoles.

Doesnt really work for docked mode and i dont think many devs want to release games that cant be played in both forms.

SC2 is a mess right now they need to to focus on balancing the game as its broken right now and deal with the large amount of hacks running rampant on the ladder since the game went f2p before then even consider porting it anywhere.

No wonder BW is getting a third wind and new resurgence.

Hacks? That isn't happening mate. And the balance is fine, not the best but one of the best periods in sc2. 

BW is only getting a resurgence in Korea, and it is such a different game you can't compare it to SC2. 

Lol want to bet mate because the are a whole number of videos and streamers who have demonstrated them an example of one is linked below the's another which someused while streaming that shows all the information next to the mini map even from what production they're building to units and on the map itself you can see the units waypoints, these are now rampant on the ladder as f2p means if someone is banned they just make a new free account.

Balance is far from fine the are so many issues across all match ups that if you want to take it there I can detail what is wrong in each of them this is one of the worse periods for SC2, the best was during the HOTS era.

Time to port it then? It ll be 3years old atleast by the time the Switch gets it, so you might want to work on that now if its possible and you plan to do so.

Overwatch and Heartstone make far more sense for Switch than Starcraft 2.

SC2 isn't starcraft.

You've never played the game. Silly argument

That is 1 video, as someone who watches streams and plays daily it isn't any worse then it's been in WOL and in HOS. 

HOTS era had the broken infestor/Broodlord builds. The scene atm is better, even Terran has had recent buffs. Only argument you can have is that Terran has been at a disadvantage since HOS, but the current best player in the world plays Terran.
