Would have if the pre-orders weren't sold out. If at all possible, I will.

Honestly could be lucky like I was which is walking into a store on launch (After an hour of store opening) and picking up the console (My ps4 story). 

I can't count on such luck.

Anyways, I ducked out of work and managed to get to EB Games just as they were opening up. Got the Switch (grey joy cons) and Zelda.  I'm now happy again.

Nintendo will always have a soft spot in my heart, but all post GC consoles have been trash.

Release a powerful console with all modern features without relying on these gimmicks.

That's what most of us traditional gamers want.

Attachments should be optional purchases just like Kinnect and Sony's VR.

It will depend on the library of games. Zelda alone is not enough.



Yes, any true gamer should.



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Nope. The price is simply too high for what it offers atm. I really, really wanna play Zelda, but it will just have to wait. I guess I'll just stick with my PC and 3DS for now...maybe pick up a Switch this Holiday season if they have a Zelda or Mario bundle for $299, but otherwise I'll be waiting until I can find the console in the $200 range.



No sooner than 6 months after launch, depending on the general atmosphere around the damn thing.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

Not on release date. I'll wait for November when I go to US so I can buy it cheap ($300 - I love to see you guys complaning about the price, I would buy it day 1 if it was this cheap here).

Just keep in mind that in the US they don't include tax in the advertised price. So you'll have to pay tax on top of that $300.

You're going to be too busy trying to force 11 million immigrants out to play it anyways.



Have a preorder. Its not an absolute though



In retrospect. Has there been any console worth getting at launch? PS4, Bone, U, IMO all were not worth there price until after launch.

You're pretty much beta testers.

We’re going to have job growth like you’ve never seen. I’m very good for jobs. In fact, I will be the greatest president for jobs that God ever created. That I can tell you. Believe me.
