The system is snappy as hell." It's also barebones as hell. Don't get me wrong, I think efficiency is more important than having a pretty OS, but a lot of features are still missing. The Switch OS is far from doing what the PS4 and One OS does. People are going to say : "but the PS4 and Xbox One had 4 years, when they launched they were missing features" Yes but most of those features were new features, features that weren't available on PS3/360. Here Nintendo had 4 years to look at what their competitors were doing and build the features that were the most used and demanded by players. Everything was already paved. Where is the VC? Vocal chat? Apps? Video Streaming? Trophies? Why does Nintendo always go out of their way to try and not meet people expectations? From a business standpoint, It kind of baffles me every time. I understand why they delayed the internet browser though. They need to make sure people can't hack the machine through it. That's of the utmost importance for the future of the system. I know, turns out they managed to hack it anyway, but well... |
Why aren't you comparing it to the WiiU as I stated in the OP?
The WiiU OS would crawl when booting up. It takes literally 5min to change the system language.
Apps and VC will come at a later time, they won't affect the OS.
Trophies could be included in My Nintendo.
Voice chat? That might be linked to the smartphones.
Things still need to be confirmed.
