Personally, I think Nintendo are currently the least interesting they've been since the Gamecube era.

In the 7th gen at least motion controls opened up new horizons and stuff like Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess, and Xenoblade Chronicles sparked the imagination, while early on with the Wii U there was still the tantalizing thought of "imagine what Nintendo will pull off with HD tech", but they don't seem to be interested in pushing boundaries any more.

Nope, Nintendo is getting more interesting than ever but it never stopped being interesting.

That opinion is hold by most people that played it, something you didn't.

Will people who avoided Wii U buy the Switch though??? Those great Wii U games were not enough to get people to buy one. I think Switch will sell better probably due to it being portable, but how much better is the question. Nintendo prolonging the 3DS for a while longer is a very good move, at least they have a contingency plan to release another handheld in the DS family which I still believe is a strong brand.

How many do you think know that the Wii U exists, let alone know what it does or realize it's a different console compared to the original Wii?

Considering they make their own cards, that indicates they just don't get the game anymore. Which was fairly accurate for the Wii U era at least. Let's hope they do know what to do with the Switch, although all these rumoured ports don't really get my hopes up. I can't really blame them if you look at TLOU, Halo and Uncharted remasters. Although they shouldn't forget that GOW and GOW 3 remastered didn't do very well, while being high profile games.

On a certains sense I agree. Actually the most interesting thing about the Switch is the unified library which should give them more opportunities to diversify their library. But I guess we'll see how that turns out on January.

I've noticed that a lot of your posts have been very bitter/aggressive recently. Don't let the hate get to you, try and focus on the positive!

I think it kinda boils down to expectations.

If you are expecting Switch to be a market leading type of system that redefines game play and all that jazz (ie: the second coming of the Wii or DS) for the sake of market share bragging or has tons of the best third party support because you want it to compete directly with the PS4/XB1 ... you're likely not going to be happy.

If you just want a Nintendo system that has a lot of games on it without all the damn droughts ... you'll probably be happy with the Switch. The sheer ability to combine their library output will over the course of even 3-4 years result in a lot of good Nintendo games on the system, whatever third parties bring is gravy.

I think they've always been "interesting" I'm not really sure what that means, it did go a little down hill after gamecube though, for home consoles anyway.

Super Mario Sunshine gets too much hate!
