If true, won't sting as much as some people think. The major fans like me are gonna get a Switch at launch and pick it up for that.

If true, i'll bet it'll be because they can't get the game to run close enough to 30fps to be playable, and still run at 720p. The Wii U, and I barked about this back in 2012... they way, way underdelivered in the specs on that system. Third parties had trouble getting PS3 ports to run on that thing.

And if this is true, Nintendo, you better get the news out of the way like right now.  Rip off the band aid, so that come January when you fully unveil the Switch, people have had a month to get over it, and within a few months it'll be mostly forgotten.

I knew the possibility of this was real when the rumors of the game missing the Switch launch started to come out.  The longer BotW comes after Switch's launch, the harder it is to justify a new Wii U physical retail release.  At some point the major retail stores are gonna say "We don't want to order any more Wii U games", if they haven't done so already.  The market has moved on from Wii U.  That's the reality.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.
