N64 may be extreme since that was such early/basic 3D that most games look like shit in retrospect but if GC was closer to DC than yes Wave Race would still have looked/played great.

Yes graphics matter, I was explaining to you that when people say they don't they aren't trying to say graphics never need to advance, just that it's not the be all, end all of what makes a game great.

And that's not true that Switch will be barely more powerful than PS3/360, it has been explained 1000 times on this site by now, GFLOPS are not the only thing that dictates how powerful a device is and that you can't just look at the numbers and assume the higher one is better. The Switch CPU & GPU are much better than PS3/360, along with 8x the amount of RAM.

It might not be something you want but the likelihood of Switch selling well with the current concept is far greater than it likely would as a PS4/XBO clone.

Yep, it all comes down to execution, if Switch has strong marketing, an attractive price & a steady flow of quality software than I see it doing very well.

Only two? Well here's twenty words!

That's just a bunch of old games bundled together, not Nintendo's next system that developers will be making games for.

Let me resume what you said :  "power doesn't matter, but it matters, but it's alright if the Switch is underpowered, but it's not, because we said it isn't."

Am I the only one seeing this? I mean when I said that Nintendo fans don't make sense anymore I didn't thought someone would run to give me an example.

You're going to have to pick a position. I know it's hard but look at me, I did it. Took me 3 years after buying a Wii, but I realized that the "graphic doesn't matter is just a way of lying to oneself"

When you end up playing Mass Effect, and batman Akham Asylum while your Wii is collecting dust because you don't give a crap about New super Mario bros because you played this game on your Supernes 12 years ago, that's when it strikes.

Nintendo said they wanted to make money off the system and that they weren't going for power. I kinda knew it then. Too bad all these rumors gets people hopes up.

We've already got the Playstation aka the 'Sony Xbox' and the Xbox aka the 'Microsoft Playstation'. There simply isn't room in the console market for three practically identical systems separated only by proprietary formatting.
If Nintendo wants to keep making hardware (which they have to if they don't want to let a LOT of their employees go, which carries a massive stigma in Japanese business) then they have to either find or create a new niche.
There's no room on the console space, and mobile phones have changed the portable space away from the first party takes all landscape Nintendo used to thrive in.
So now it looks like they're focusing on making a handheld that can do what mobile phones and tablets can't, that is give you a console game like experience on the move.
It's the kind of thing that different enough that people maybe won't think to themselves "But I already have a phone" or "But I already have a playstation".
But having to optimise the game twice for docked and undocked, and with neither of those specs sounding to be all that powerful if rumours are to be believed, it might be too esoteric to develop for and publishers might wander off again.

That's not what I said at all.

Power does matter to an extent, I never denied that. What I said is that when people say, "power doesn't matter", they do not literally mean that power should never advance, instead it means that games can look & play great even if they are on a device weaker than other devices.

I also never said Switch wasn't underpowered compared to PS4/XBO, it certainly is, I corrected a false statement that you made which was that Switch is barely more powerful than PS3/360.

Nothing I have said is a contradiction, you are just twisting my words around.

As for your last paragraph, I had 100x more fun playing my Wii than I did with my PS3, its almost as if different people have different preferences!!!!!

Nostalgia often makes people forget how much of a laughing stock Gamecube was back in the day. It was seen as a child's toy. The only people who loved it were hardcore Nintendo fans, mainstream gamers regarded it with either contempt or apathy.

I think you're projecting too much of your own feelings towards the systems in question and assuming everyone feels the way you do.

No, I'm not projecting anything, yes the GC had trouble because of its image, but by the end of the gen, a lot of people changed their mind about it, not to the point of buying it, because that ship had sailed. But certainly to the point of thinking about buying the next console made by Nintendo.

I don't think so; GC, like Wii U, was practically forgotten by its last year on the market. By then, all eyes were on the Wii. What was there to change its image anyway? All its major games besides Twilight Princess had long since been and gone, and none of them had been enough to save it from 3rd place.
