I'm hoping Nintendo can justify all my cons, but with the information we have right now, I'm gonna stick with my opinions. If Nintendo really makes a great case for all the cons, I'll be happy to change my mind.

Again it's too early to say. Nintendo haven't even revealed their online plans yet and I think we're going to see all of that at E3. I'm actually not worried about it at all and I think that there's going to be some changed minds when things are revealed. Nintendo should have kept their mouths shut and waited until they fully revealed the service with all it's features. This is like when Iwata announced the "NX" and everyone started assuming shit before a single detail was announced. Feel free to stick with your opinion but there is no substantial information to go on, no real facts. Just speculation over a few tidbits and some rumors and speculation which could end up looking pretty good. I'm just really confused because I had a feeling we would be paying for online this time around. I even stated this a fair few days prior to the event, but I thought online gameplay would be free.... I'm wondering if Nintendo is going to have two different tiers for their online service. A Cheap one that covers the basic functions and is likely priced cheaper than the competition and then a more expensive premium service that could be something like $80-100 a year. Maybe more depending on overhead costs and how much the serves cost to run. If it works as speculated it won't be for everyone but it will have a crowd and a market that it'll attract. Regardless give it time. If things don't work out by E3 and you still don't like it, then by all means. Complain.

First impressions matter, just ask XB1. MS did a piss poor job of revealing the XB1, got a huge back lash that they  haven't been able to shake off, even though they've made great efforts to address the publics concerns. They're still a distant second in the console race; they probably always would have ended up in second place this time around, but not bysuch a huge margin. Nintendo have left a lot unsaid, leaving US, the public, to fill in the gaps, and that'äs not a good thing, that leads to speculation, which leads opinions being form, which will cement a certain view of the Switch that will be hard to shake off down the road.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
