So I'm sure most of you have seen at least some of the thousands of Nintendo Switch YouTube videos out there and after watching this video I just couldn't take it anymore. It is a perfect example of how these channels are just cashing in on what's the buzz right now by producing click bait titles and spreading false information to get attention. 

and yet you give the video attention by mentioning it and then proceeding to post the video for all of us to watch.

Oh no, now they must be definitely raking in the cash. I'm sure those couple hundred or at best thousand views must of made a huge impact out of the almost 10 million views they get monthly. You're just being petty to keep something like that to keep you from calling out something and using your freedom of speech. What's the use in keeping to yourself, that's not going to make a difference in any situation.

Just saw this in my sub box. Was thinking the exact same thing.

"Oh, we need a good story, even if it isn't stable or necessarily true"

"How about we talk bad about Nintendo Switch, even though it has a lot of positive energy"

"YEAH, LETS DO THAT".

I guess the fake news trend of 2016 didn't want to get left behind. I usually like the know. It's like with Ashley gone, things always go out of wack in terms of Nintendo. The largest, first HD Zelda, ever made shouldn't ever be in the same sentence as "weak launch".

Actually it should.  A launch can not be one game.  A one game launch is very, very weak.

It doesn't make ZELDA weak. It doesn't make the switch weak. It doesn't make the release games of the year weak. It makes the launch weak.

When someone goes "I have no interest in zelda" and then suddenly you are out of options - that is a very weak launch lineup.

The only game I played on ps4 launch was knack. Looking at the list of games available though, you can't sell it weak.

Maybe so, but the Weakest launch? Not by a long shot. Try 64 or Famicom or Gameboy Color. Switch currently has 10 games at launch. To my knowledge, that's more than 2. They could have at least put, "Last 2 decades" in the title. Fake reporting at its finest.

Positive shit almost never get hits, people love to hate or watch other people's misfortunes to make themselves feel better about their own shitty lives. Welcome to humans.

So you didn't like it when the guy said that Zelda is "worth five launch games"?  I don't understand.  They were back and forth with saying good things and being objective.  What is the problem with that?

No, because that isn't true. A game is a game is a game. You have to have watched the know for a while. Sure, they may have not totally ragged on it, but the click baity title is what people see first. Most of them don't hang around to watch the rest of the video sadly, and then they'll use vids like this as ammo, rinse and repeat But I'm probably over reacting, I shouldn't even be worried about the Switch. Can't even play it when it releases.
