Hi y'all. I'm back from my bancation. I want to congratulate you on cherry picking through my previous posts and taking everthing I said totally out of context. Fine work indeed.

I did respond to the majority of your points, so I'm not sure how you could call that "Cherry Picking".

Hows about you respond to my points in kind?

But what do you think about Digital Foundry affecting the sales of game consoles with very early spec leaks of hardware that is not even finalized yet. Some people are saying they changed their minds about pre-ordering the Switch because of DF's opinion. No one knows the real specs of the Switch yet.

It's called "life".

Because even the "final" specs are not dramatically different to the "leaked" specs, thus those same people would have likely have made the same choice anyway, eventually... So blame Nintendo not the consumers or Digital Foundry. It's not their fault, it's Nintendo's.

Nintendo are not entitled to our money if they make business decisions that we do not agree with, same goes for Sony, same goes for Microsoft.

So you have the final specs? You have a Switch and have tested it? You have a Scorpio and have tested it?

And placing blame? No one is being blamed for anything. Why do you feel the need to blame anyone? Digital Foundry's spec assumptions are affecting peoples purchasing decisions. That is a fact. Why cant you admit it.

Why do you have to keep spining the topic away from that fact. Why do you feel the need to defend Digital Foundry when they are just spreading rumors and assumptions? Why are you so obviously offended because a YouTube channel makes assumptions to get clicks?

You also told another forum user in this thread to move along because they did not agree with your twisted version of reality. Buddy, this is MY thread, not yours. WHY DON'T YOU STOP DERAILING MY THREAD AND JUST MOVE ALONG.



   

Hey! They got SONY on my amiibo! Wait a minute. Two great gaming tastes that game great together!

No because specs aren't the be-all, end-all when it comes to winning a generation. If that were true, the Wii wouldn't have taken names like it did. Consoles win and lose based on many factors.

We have some of the final specs.
No I don't intend to buy a Switch or test it. - I'm not interested.
No I do not have a Scorpio, don't be silly.

Nice circular logic.
And why can't I admit it? I have admitted it, you should try paying attention.
And I don't care if it affects people's purchasing decisions, if anything that is a good thing that it does, that is the point of reviews, analysis etc'.

If Nintendo cannot come to the party with what consumers want, cannot communicate what they are presenting properly... Then that is no one elses fault but their own.
Fact is, some people are Hardware enthusiasts and wish to know every aspect.

Digital Foundry is just reporting what they have discovered and what their sources have substantuated, that is how reporting usually works, Nintendo would be privvy to all the rumors floating around and can put a stop to it instantly.

Because Digital Foundry is one of the best sources of tech information on the internet, they earned their respect, I will choose their opinion over someone like yourself (No offense) every day of the week. And that is the way it should be.

And where have I stated that I am offended by anything?

What happens in another thread is irrellevent to this one, I am sticking to the topic, not derailing anything, calm down, if you think I am off-topic, report me and let a moderator deal with it.

I know that you hang around Nintend and their Switch everyday . 

To speak fankly , your behavior is unsightly.

If the leaks are accurate then I'm all for them. They temper expectations, overhyping and the resultant disappointment is a big issue.

Eurogamer/Digitalfoundry have an excellent track record recently.



Were there people that genuinely believed that Scorpio would play every game at native 4K?

Nintendo's fun is infectious, isn't it.
