Well according to everyone on this site it's already competing with PS and Xbox. In fact, it's not just competing, it's thrashing them! So, the people here really aren't going to appreciate that question. They think that once that switch slides into that dock, it turns into a monstrous and powerful console that is the envy of Sony and Microsoft, even it was only powerful enough to run one big third party release all year. Sonic shadow generations. Doesn't matter to anyone on here though. Who needs third party games?

I don't think anyone considers the Switch a "monstrous and powerful console" considering its power is somewhere in between the Xbox 360/PS3 and Xbox One/PS4 with it being closer to the former. Even with its lack of hardware strength compared to the competition, it's still a very successful console for Nintendo with its exclusives and the third party support it has gotten over the past 7 years. That being said, with the Lite being the exception, the Switch family is both a home and a handheld console. Hence why its considered a hybrid.

The Switch has only received one big title one big third party title all year. Sonic shadow generations. How can anyone be happy about that and still defend the Switch? These devices are supposed to play games! Why defend a platform that isn't getting games?

I don't get your point. Switch is evidently competing with them when it comes to sales figures, not when it comes to power. A Nintendo home console could never compete with them on sales figures though, even if they could compete on power. A powerful Nintendo console wouldn't stop Square Enix from making new Final Fantasy games only for Playstation, and same for the other big third parties.

There's no point trying to have a rational discussion with him, he's just trolling.

I wasn't trolling actually. I just added a little sarcasm but what I said was still the truth. The only big third party game that the Switch has received this year is Sonic shadow generations. You just ran away from me in another thread and won't speak to me since, even though what I said in the other thread was also the truth. I have a thread without about 200 replies in it, so it seems like plenty of other people are willing to engage and talk to me on this platform?
