How about you leave the moderating to the moderators? K, thanks.

It's not about moderation, it's a basic principle of human interaction. I agree with lots of your points and see where your logic comes from, I just don't agree with the way you delievered it and I'm entitled to make an observation about it. Moderators are enforcing rules rather than coordinating transactions between individuals, I've made my point and if you don't care about it, it's fine. I'd rather have you aknowledge something or reflect about it, but at least we had the discussion and you know my point of view about sensibilities.

I'm sorry, are you new here? Have you seen the moderators on this site work? They actually do "coordinate" interactions between individuals all of the time to a point of practically adding tone policing to the rules. But that's besides the point. Here you are, such shining example of how humans should interact, and with such wisdom regarding the human considition, that you feel that you should be imparting that wisdom onto others, and more importantly that they heed your profound advice. How gracious of you.

Thank you for stating your preference that I acknowledge your comments, and that I reflect upon it. However, I cannot state more plainly, that I could not possibly care less about your preferences. Your comments appeal to me in the same way that 1-2 Switch does.

I've been moderator. I know the wheelwork so I speak from experience. And I'm no shining example, I've just noticed many of your interventions and how poorly they were handled. I'm older than you on this forum (but not from actual age... I hope you're not really 53 like your profile states, because that's sad as fuck).

Anyhow, I'm done. Thank you.

I believe this thread is quite simple. Name features/games that will make you go out and buy a Switch. Doesn't have to be must-have. Can be things you'd simply appreciate to see.

 

Personal example:

-Nintendo games such as mario, pokemon, zelda, animal crossing, metroid, etc

-New IP's

-Better 3rd party support

-$250-$299 price launch

-4+ hour battery life

After learning the switch plays in 720p (instead of my predicted 480-520p), must say that the battery life isn't too disappointing.

 

The switch looks rather promising

Cursing! That's no way to interact with your fellow man! How dare you make such assumptions about my age or the time I have spent on this forum!

I strongly suggest you depart from this session of interaction with the world wide web,  and reflect upon how you poorly you handled this interaction, and dwell on how you may improve upon such interactions henceforth!

Already planned on buying it before I even knew what it was. Preordered the first chance I could, and spent yesterday reorganizing my game room in preparation. I'm all in!

Price drop, good bundle, and a series of games I want at least shown. I know... I'm asking far too much.

Nah, you're not. It's all very basic common sense. You'll get your price drop and bundle at the very least, in a year or two.

I'll have access to one soon after launch so I'm in no hurry. I'll more than likely play Xenoblade 2, but can wait to play everything else. Makes the choice a TON easier.

What game(s) would make you buy it?

Not right away, but I'm interested. Just waiting to see if the rough patches get ironed out first. Maybe going into the holiday sounds good.
