I am probably a little over-critical.
No huge Mario or Zelda titles for this Holiday Season... Leaving the currently heavily criticized Metroid to fend for itself mostly. Game Key Cards are an abomination. Initial release full of remastered re-released titles at full price, many games don't include the DLC either. (Zelda)
Hardware leaves much to be desired, display is inferior to the Switch 1 LCD, let alone the OLED variant... Shorter battery life even with games like Breath of the Wild compared to Switch OLED. Fake HDR due to a lack of local dimming, VRR not able to be used in docked mode.
Could have done with an extra 4GB of Ram to let the hardware breathe a little more for the next 7 years.
Console is significantly more expensive, but that is an industry-wide issue rather than a strictly Nintendo issue.
Happy with the CPU and GPU capabilities, improved Joycons, large and higher resolution display and vastly improved speakers. |
I mean it less as a question of the system itself, but more a question of their transitional strategy, given in the past they have often had difficulty maintaining momentum and userbase when transitioning from one generation to the next.
