I mean...that's all Nintendo could come up with...

But seriously though, are you really comparing HD rumble and an NFC chip reader to features like media apps, a web browser, intergrated voice chat, a headphone jack in the controller...You know, features people just assume a system released after 2012 would have...

It's not about people wanting the Switch to be just like the Xbox One and PS4, it's about the Switch missing really obvious features.

Who says it doesn't have integrated voice chat? I'd wait for Nintendo to actually unveil its online service before claiming that. 

And no, 1-2 Switch isn't all they came up with. Arms uses the HD rumble as well as will many future Nintendo games. The Switch isn't out yet, while the PS4 is in its 5th year already and the only thing you can come up with is a tech demo... These list wars are really desperate if you're going to count shit like that. It's the same as claiming that the PS4 can play games on the go... No, it can't. You need a Vita or laptop and constant internet access for that to work. I find it funny that Sony fans love to bring this Remote Play feature up yet they mock Nintendo for apparently handling voice chat through smart phones. Oh, so now using a second device doesn't count anymore? Hah, double standards at its finest. 

And don't try to claim that the portability of the Switch isn't a big deal because it is. 

And I'd rather have HD rumble over features almost nobody uses and can be easily added through updates (web browser, media apps). 

You'd assume everyone in 2017 has a wireless headphone and isn't still using headphones with wires... They're not exactly expensive anymore... And if you're really that desperate for a headphone jack at least the Switch itself has one for portable mode.

You are more than welcome to  believe the Switch will have intergrated voice chat...but everything Ninteno has said points to it only being in the app.

You're still totally missing the point. This has nothing to to with the Switch vs. any other system. The Switch at launch is going to be missing several key features that most people assumed it would have. Somebody who wanted to use their Switch to watch Netflix, or use wired headphones while in TV mode, don't give a shit if you like HD rumble.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
