I merely provided facts to his arguments.
- He hasn't played Zelda, but he claims it will be archaic.
- He claims there is a 6-7 month drought of First Party games until Super Mario Odyssey releases. This is not true as Mario Kart 8 releases at the end of April, Arms in the Spring and Splatoon 2 releases in the Summer. There's also Fire Emblem Warriors in the Fall and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 which is slated for 2017 (which could admittetly be delayed to 2018 very easily).
- He hasn't played Arms, but he claims it's just "motion control nonsense" despite the fact that it supports traditional controllers as well.
- He claims Nintendo is creating artificial scarcity despite the fact that Nintendo is shipping similar numbers compared to the PS4 launch. You can't argue with numbers.
- He says there is a lack of third party support (which is true), but he claims Ubisoft is the most notable example of this lack of support, which is bollocks. Steep, Rayman Legends and Just Dance 2017 might not be much, but it's still better than an HD port of a 26-year old game that is sold at $40 (Capcom). Or Level-5 who weren't even present at the conference despite having seen huge success on the 3DS. That's a notable absence.
- Claims a bunch of things about the online platform and the virtual console that are unconfirmed. He's making assumptions. How do we know the service is too expensive when we don't even know how much it will cost or everything it will offer...
