3rd party games being trash on it.

 

Other than that, wondering how good a new Metroid or Xenoblade COULD have been.

 

Beyond that not a thing. If Nintendo fans are cool with getting a product that is $250, and paying for a screen and a battery they really didn't want or NEED included in the cost, then on top of that having to pay for a pro controller because the Switch puppy head looks uncomfortable and doesn't have a proper Dpad then dope. I just hope they have a decent library of NEW software first year.

 

Keep in mind, this isn't the first time I've hated Nintendo hardware and loved the gen in whole. The Wii takes the cake on that.

 

Third party games will be trash on Switch? Some third parties are making Switch exclusive games right now. Mario x Rabbids anyone? As far as the Switch being the first true hybrid gaming system that means yes, it has a screen and battery. For the cost of one system you are getting two, a decent powered home console and a crazy powered portable. Having multiple controller options is a huge plus. Having so many Wii U ports is just smart business sense on Nintendo's part because very few people played those games. Maybe when Nintendo has their full reveal you will change your mind.

Dodging the point. Exclusives of course will be fine, but multiplats are gonna be trash.

 

Next point, you aren't really getting two consoles in one, you're getting a powerful handheld that can connect to a tv, and in turn the people who simply wanted a stronger home console now not only have to deal with a slightly more power Wii U for 5 years, and have to pay for pieces of a console that weren't wanted. Beyond that stating it's a decent powered home console is off mark. 

Having multiple controller options is good. Every console ever has had multiple controller options. It's having a bad in box controller that sucks, and even if you hated the wii u controller, this is the same controller out the box, but smaller grips and a bad d pad. It took something people didn't like and made it far worse. The buttons being directly above/below the analog sticks also screams bad design.

Last, having wii u ports may be a smart move.... We'll see, but it also gives me no incentive to buy.
