TBH straight after Nintendo's January presentation I'd give people a free pass for reactionary posts.

That presentation was awful.

I was disappointed with it myself

I thought it was ok. The price was within what some expected and the release date was sooner than anyone expected. The overall online features outside of the online gaming itself are still in question as Nintendo has only begun releasing the app but hasn't mentioned the potential virtual console or deals that can be made once paid and all. We'll just have to wait and see. Still playing online is pretty fun with Splatoon 2 and ARMS The joy cons themselves have potential if utilized. Switch being region free was news. The amount of options of playing was interesting due to the hybrid concept. The trailers ranged from ok to great. While I'll admit ARMS didn't necessarily have a great first impression, I'm glad it showed it was more than flinging punches as previews, later trailers, and reviews showed it was more than Wii Boxing 2. 1-2 Switch was weird but not really terrible and I've seen worse trailers. It sucks FE Warriors was only a teaser at the time. Xenoblade 2 was great. Odyssey was amazing. Zelda was awe inspiring. I think what people didn't like were the news after the presentation such as the online features once paid (or that it was paid at all), the prices for the controllers and other accessories, and the few launch day titles (which was like about 15 if you include the Japan only titles).
