Forums - Nintendo - [New Poll] Will you buy multiplatform games on Switch or PS4/XBO/PC?

 

Will you buy multiplats on Switch or PS4/XBO/PC if you own both systems?

Switch 270 37.04%
 
PS4/XBO/PC 331 45.40%
 
Won't own a Switch 109 14.95%
 
Won't own a PS4/XBO/PC 19 2.61%
 
Total:729

PS4. Might get a Switch for the usual Nintendo games/playing Pokemon on an actual TV, but I don't game while I'm out, so no reason to get multiplats on the Switch.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

If it's on Switch I buy it on Switch instead.

On the Switch, not only you can play on the go but in whatever position you like, I sometimes have back problems and stop playing because it starts hurting me, with WiiU it was easy to play in whatever position when that happens and so it will be with Switch, but this time everywhere you want, and also looks like games will look great on that screen.

Also, that poll is hardly representative, what do you think the hater comunity with no intentions of ever getting a Nintendo console is voting? At least give a third option with "I don't give a ..."

Yeah, that's why I worded it it as "play anywhere/anytime" instead of "on the go."

The poll is fine. No one is being a hater.

Since I already have a PS4, and will be getting a Switch eventually, it will probably be a toss up. However, this all depends on if the Switch even gets any multiplat support.

Assuming that most/all multiplats that are released on the PS4/XBO/PC are also released on the Switch



Sorry, didn't read.  In that case, my first point still stands.  If said multiplat would benefit from optional portablility, thn Switch it is.

Thinking on it more, I should have added a "Won't own a Switch" and "Won't own a PS4/XBO/PC" option, as the poll is only supposed to reflect people who plan on owning multiple systems.

Should I redo the poll?



Whatever platform is best for that game. - So likely PC. (Better graphics, better controls, better audio, cheaper price.)

I functionally always buy the PC version. I'm fortunate enough to have a PC that laughs all the way to the pixel bank, and i also prefer the secondary advantages on PC gaming. The majority of my gaming friends are also on PC, so there's rarely an instance i can't play with them.

If i didn't own a PC, i'd have spent the generation buying everything on the PS4, and now the Pro. Once the Scorpio release, i'd have moved onto that for multi-plats.

The obvious theme of all of this being that if i have a choice in where i play something, i'll follow the pixels. *sniffs up line of pixels* Aaaah, that's the stuff.



Okay, I made a new poll to be more specific because I wasn't satisfied with the last one.

Switch, since I don't directly own a Xbone or a PS4.

Same here
