You took it a bit too far with that statement

oh come on... how many too positive Nintendo topics are made by her daily? i'm 95% confident that she's a Nintendo PR hired to post on forums, like just look at her history, it's sad, and if she's not paid to do all the Nintendo damage controll and she's doing it for free in ther free time then that's just sad

 

Whatever the argument you had with her, you lost the moment you insulted her.

And Nintendo chose wisely when they decided to trust Nvidia to power their next handheld hardware. Nvidia are the best at power efficiency.

So you didn't look it up? Great. Now try again and stop talking about streaming. Thanks.

A Tegra Tablet with a controller that plugs into your TV. Sound familiar? Nintendo added a new Name and remodeled the controller, then called it a day.

Not saying they stole the idea, just that it's very very far from the definition of groundbreaking.

even when I I agree with you, you  are mean, I said that I KNOW and the SWITCH IS BASICALLY THE SEQUEL OF THE TABLET FROM NVIDIA, BUT THAT TABLET IS SHIT BECAUSE THE GAMES ARE not WOTH IT AND IF YOU WANT TO PLAY GOOD GAME ON THE TABLET YOU HAVE TO USE THEIR STREAMING SERVICE. caps lock because you deserve it.

Everytime someone tries to point out a WiiU port of Skyrim, they lose all credibility in the conversation as it becomes obvious that they are reaching it is pathetic.

 

Two words that nullifies that garbage comment. SPECIAL EDITION.

 

Have a nice day.

what other games are on Switch except Wii U games and some version of Skyrim that is probably worse than the original one?

 

Skyrim special edition wqs only released recently on the PS4 and X1. WiiU would not be able to run it. Please try harder because you are only proving my point. EDIT: Just noticed he was banned. Guess I can assume he won't be replying then.

I can't stand the waiting. First, I want to know if the docking unit can provide any significant extra power, and second I need to know the overall power of Switch, and whether it comes within 50% of an XBone or not.

If it's clearly less than 50% of an Xbox, then I think we'll see extremely few multiplatforms and for my personal tastes the machine is too weak. It's just a powerful handheld and I don't like handhelds. I won't buy it.

If it's clearly faster than 50% of an Xbox, I think chances are high that we'll see at least a decent amount of third party multiplatforms ported to the sistem, and for me personally I think the graphics are good enough. I will buy on day one.

Yeah apparently he did. Not sure if it is permanent or just to teach him a lesson.

Well not ground breaking, but hopefully this meets sales of their expectations

Dear, everything  you said, I know, I have to explain that to him but he would not understand. Other thing, I'm talking about efficiency when you compare pascal with amd's old architecture on the ps4 and xbox. put two gpus with the same power, one from amd's old architecture and one from Nvidia's new architecture, and the new one from nvidia is going to have an advantage in terms of efficiency and power consumption. 

You're the one that used those figures and then compared them with the Switch .

And sure, Nvidia is more efficient than AMD, but we're talking about a device that will consume 15, maybe up to 20W in a best case scenario while the competing machines (PS4 Slim & XboxOne S) use more than 3x that power and are build in the same manufacturing process. Not even Nvidia is that efficient.

And let's not forget that, while Maxwell or Pascal can do certain tasks better than AMD's Tahiti, the latest can also do certain tasks better than what Nvidia has.

Just have on mind that PS4Slim/XB1s have AMD tech from 2012, while Switch has Nvidia tech most likely from 2016, so comparing consumptions of different tech from different period doesn't make too much sense. Also Switch can easily consume 20W or more in docked mode. So yes, we can definatly say that Switch will have advantage in terms of efficiency and power consumption compared to real power of hardware.

lol what are they supposed to say? That they hate Switch and they are glad its over? Its standard PR speak.
