| CrazyGamer2017 said: Good for Nintendo, but not good for those who care to have better hardware. If one can expect flaws in one's system of choice to be improved on the next time they release new hardware cause they want to keep motivation of people to buy it, well Nintendo does not have to worry about that. Why improve hardware, just create new concepts (which is fine, don't get me wrong on that) Why improve current flaws? People are going to buy the machine anyways. Examples: Why better battery life? 3 Hours for games like Zelda is fine, people buy it regardless, Why choosing better CPU's and GPU's. The Tegra 1 chip chosen was already outdated by the Tegra 2 chip when the Switch was released. But Nintendo still went for the inferior Tegra 1 and did that stop the sales? Nope. Why making a home system, a dedicated one I mean? People don't seem to care about that, they seem to think some kind of cross system is the same as an actual home system. About chatting, everybody including some Nintendo fans agree that their solution to chat in online play using cables and a smart phone, is bad, really bad but does that stop the system from selling? Nope, so why even bothering to implement a simple chatting system as you see on PC/PS4/Xbox? No reason since people buy it anyway. Ok then at least this hardware means a cheap retail price? Nope, it's as expensive if not more expensive than other systems that are way more powerful like the PS4... Bottom line is that the only true winner here is Nintendo, fans not so much and hardcore gamers, not at all. Too bad cause I would have loved to one day explore the realms of BOTW or play Mario in his Odyssey or play that 4th episode of Metroid Prime as I really enjoyed the first 3 episodes back when I had a GameCube and later on a Wii. My hopes so far were that one day Nintendo would make better hardware that would bring their games to modern day graphics but Why would they do that? What motivation for them to do that? There's always a slim chance that they do cause no one can tell for sure what will be done in 5 or 10 years from now but the chance is small really small... |
Better hardware!? Better than what hardware exatly!? Switch is first real hybrid console, and actualy its pretty good hardware. Tegra 2 wasnt available on market for Switch on time, I think that you still dont have not single Tegra 2 devaice on market, having that on mind, Switch couldnt had better battery life or stronger power, but next revisions and iterations will probably have improved those things.
Yes, online chat is bad, but offcourse that bad chat will not stop people from buying console that has great concept, good hardware and great games, those things are incomparible more important. Switch is not expansive for hybrid devaice.
Nintendo Switch games look prety modern and good.
Very strange post, it seems that you confusing good hardware with strong hardware, Switch has good hardware but its not strong, and if I understood you corect, you want Nintendo to make console with strong hardware, thats ok, but you also need to realise that most people dont care about power of hardware espacily if console have great concept like Switch.
| LethalP said: Switch done 10 million in 284 days, PS4 done 10 million in 268 days. That's a close one. Wonder if Switch can overtake PS4 considering PS4 was also ahead of the Wii at this point. |
Switch has 20 days of sales of December left so Switch will take PS4, but later PS4 will enter second holiday season so will overtake Switch, thats why its not best comparsion, but its important both consoles have great sales.
