| Rogerioandrade said: For me, what really matters are the games. And people buy Nintendo consoles for their games - and also for some 3rd party support, specially in the handheld cathegory. People seems to forget, from time to time, that some very succesfull franchises today are in Nintendo consoles: Monster Hunter, Pokemon, Mario games, Yokai Watch, Animal Crossing, Shin Megami Tensei (in Japan, of course), Dragon Quest etc etc etc There´s enough great franchises to guarantee them some decent sales. People keep grumbling about specs and memory and battery and whatever but we´ve seen all those issues in many different devices recently and even in some consoles. Every console has its issues. I have a PS4 and I waited a long time to buy it because the initial $399 price tag was too much to me. It has "excellent" 500 Gb of memory but it doesn´t mean much because games require installation. I have only 07 games and they already consumed 40% of the memory! Also, the battery life of its controllers just suck hard. They barely last 04 hours even with all the energy saving options on. Setting multiplayer games is also cluncky with the need of creating multiple profiles. Why can´t I just press the damn start button for a second player? No console is perfect. In the end, what really matters are the games. Nintendo can be successfull if the Switch has a good flow of launches of its exclusive franchises, like the 3ds had, and a few adjustments on the peripherals prices. After all, what people really want are good games, not just high-tech expensive devices. A device like that can´t doanything if it has no great games |
But switch doesnt have that yet. We cant say they're coming to switch if those titles are not even announced for switch. Everyone made the same premise when wiiu came out, but the reality speaks different.
