The Switch is Nintendo wanting a presence in home console arena but focusing on being a portable device. This is because 3DS did fine and Nintendo Wii U flopped (worst selling Nintendo home console ever). Nintendo simply doesn't want to compete with X1 and PS4 directly, too expensive. Forget the console war BS, this is the reality. Even if NIntendo claims is a home console first, that's PR bullshit. The console was designed for portability and that has affected price and capabilities more than anything. |
People are going to see it the way they want to see it. I did not argue the dude because he is allowed to see the console any way he wants. He wants to believe it is a home console, he should be allowed to do that. However, people like me that have been calling the console a hand held are not going away. Fire cannot melt steel beams... just because Nintendo SAYS it is a home console, some of us are not fooled. Not one bit.
My point in this reply is to say you should not debate this guy because he will feel right and entitled because he is, as I see it, being dooped by a marketing ploy. He will feel he is correct and so will the people that stand on the other side. The real problem is that he has not come into contact with, or seen any of these inner fights before which leads me to believe he is not on the Nintendo boards enough to know that this position predates the actual October showing of the console. It leads me to believe this person is not a Nintendo fan. He seems to think this is a NEW move by Nintendo fans to damage control the current negative publicity when in fact, we have been saying this since before there was any negative press about the console.
