Uh, check again. You weren't addressing me, you were addressing NATO.

Doesn't change what I said though, the Switch isn't out yet, so I obviously wasn't referring to that console.

I don't know, they still release tablets without browsers, maybe it's still 10 AD.

So not only do you use internet browsers on home consoles, but also wired headphones? What's next? Wired controllers?

I think you're getting very confused, because why on earth would you respond to NATO clearly talking about the SWITCH not having a browser, by instead referring to a random home console.

By your own admition the Switch isn't a home console, so your response to him is completely illogical.

No, I'm making fun of the fact that he seems to consider an internet browser on a console so important.

Like I said numerous times before, the Switch will get an internet browser eventually. You're making a big deal out of nothing. 

I'm not buying the Switch for Netflix or an internet browser.

this is what happens when they try so desperately to defend the indefensible, funny isn't it xD

On a "home console" you specifically said, again your point didn't make sense.

That's what he games on, doesn't he?

But hey, if you consider an internet browser or a headphone port so important then don't buy the Switch.

Doesn't matter what I game on, I specifically said "releasing a tablet without a browser", the switch is a tablet, ps4/xbox one are not.

Try harder.

Dude, he specifically said "A tablet in 2017", clearly he's talking about the SWITCH a HANDHELD device (hybrid). Why does it matter what he games on. He made the point that a handheld device should have a browser in 2017, your defense was about Home Consoles. It made no sense whatsoever.

But regardless I'm buying a Switch, I don't overly care that it doesn't have a browser and no headphone port on the Pro Controller is an inconvenience but a tolerable one.

You're trying to argue with me assuming I'm trying to hate-on the switch, when in reality I'm just pointing out your illogical defense.

No, the Switch is a dedicated gaming device. 

People aren't buying it for the same reason they buy a tablet. Or else it would have 4G. 

There are many things the PS4, PS4 Pro and X1 didn't launch with that they got later on through updates. What's your point exactly?

His point would be valid if he said gaming device or handheld, but he said tablet. Switch is not going after the tablet market. It's going after the gamer market. 

Besides, I never used the browser on my 3DS.

Your point was that wired headphones are a thing of the past.

I pointed out that a tablet released in 2017 without a browser is "in the past" too.

You didn't like it, not one bit.

Point is, you've no good defense as to why the browser wont be included at launch, and you've no good defense as to why the pro controller doesn't have a headphone port either. and you use "but I dont need these things" as if it cancels out the people who state that they do, well it doesn't, it's a shit defense.

And your repeated insistance that "If it was a tablet it would have 4G" is bullshit too, most tablets do not have 4G either.
