@Pemalite Edit: I messed something up. I shouldn't have said splitscreen but this is another feature Nintendo Switch offers that I doubt any prior Nintendo handheld offers because its a hybrid. I meant shared screen local multiplayer which you absurdly implied the joycons were designed for on the go multiplayer just because you can't accept Switch was designed to be home console as well. On the go multiplayer with the joycons could only mean two players sharing the Switch screen such as Super Smash Bros. Funny enough, Super Smash Bros is on 3DS yet likely doesn't offer the ability for two players on one system multiplayer like joycons allow on Switch. 3DS doesn't even sale additional controllers because it was designed to be "primarily" mobile. What Nintendo says matters because you are the one putting words in their mouth insisting you know what Switch was primarily designed for when Nintendo said otherwise ie home console and portable console. Splitscreen multiplayer and shared screen multiplayer are home console features that Switch offers while GB, GBA, DS, and 3DS likely don't offer these features for obvious reasons. |
It's not absurd. You can't take a Nintendo 64 outside by itself and start multiplayer gaming as it never came with a display integrated.
Also... The Nintendo DS had some games where you could have more than one player playing at the same time. (Wario Ware comes to mind). |
I don't follow why you brought up the N64. It's obviously meant to be a home console, how does that stop Switch from being a home console and portable console? The joycons are also motion controllers hence why they come with straps similar to you know... Wii, a home console. Finally, I am trying to find these multiplayer games in Warioware Touch It and youtube failed me. What specific games in Warioware come to mind?
So I'll repeat, how I know Nintendo is telling the truth about Switch being designed to be a home and handheld console is the fact that have gone out of their way to include things they never did in their prior handheld consoles. These are instead things they did in their prior home consoles.
