Let people express their grievances

Okay.

But only if they are actually open minded about buying one. If they aren't even interested (or aren't even on the fence about buying one) in buying a Switch and make a "I'm disappointed because Switch _____" thread, they must be labeled assholes.

So you can't talk about something you don't plan to buy right now? If you're not currently putting money aside or if you don't have a pre-order ready, you have to shut up?

Great tolerance here, I'm so glad you made a thread to spread it.

That's a valid option. Wish more people were like you.

heh, should mention I didn't say I wouldn't still complain about it though. Even if the chances of complaining about lack of features results in those features being added is minute, it still has a slighty better chance than not complaining

It's your dime. I think it's more effective to vote with your wallet but I don't make the rules. I just make suggestions.

When I'm comparing a system, I compare it first with the previous one made by the same manufacturer.

And sorry, but besides being a handheld, the Switch brings nothing new in comparison with the WiiU.

That could be said about PS4 and XB1, too. Right? Hell, at launch, those two lost several last gen features as well. Some still aren't on the current gen models. Hasn't stopped my enjoyment in the slightest.

 

And no need to apologise. It's just video games.

PS4 and Xbox One improve on the one important thing that has been at the center of video game evolution : they are more powerful.

People can bitch all they want, trying to make other people believe that there is a debate between gameplay and graphics. But they are wrong.

More power = better graphics AND more gameplay possibilities.

The increase of power in gaming brought us 3D, physics, real time effects, open world, destructible environments, multiplications of elements, all of those being breakthroughs in how games plays.

People should understand that by now, and people should realize that the Switch is just stuck in the past.

That's the exact attitude that leads to featureless consoles.

I wouldn't say "featureless". I'd say one console has something that the other doesn't. Hell, most consoles offer something that the other doesn't. If every console has the same features, why but another console? I already made comparison threads showing what PS4 offered that Xbox One didn't. I also made one showing what Xbox One offers that PS4 doesn't. Give me about a month and I'll make one for the Switch, too.

Wrong. New technology should have more features than previous generations. It's bad enough that consoles barely evolve so we simply cannot and should not support consoles that are trying to go backwards.

A lot of features have been added to consoles only because of strong demands by customers. So telling people to stop demanding more features is counter productive.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Bolded.

And?

I wasn't initially interested in the Wii or the 3DS, and I got both eventually. But I complained about it first and didn't buy them at launch, so I was an asshole?

Stop insulting people just because you disagree with them.

Except that PS4 and Xbox One also cut features. In a perfect world, that wouldn't have been the case.

 

Example: Can't download content from the web on PS4. You could on PS3. It took months, if not years for some last gen features to be included in current gen consoles.

 

*I've been replying a lot. I'm going to sit back and watch the thread live (or die) on its on. I'll be watching, though.*

The triangle is definetely the Y button, those sneaky snakes just moved the top line to the bottom and flipped it, just so no one accuses them of stealing Sony's

"I have no idea how to defend the nonsense I said so I'l try derailing the discussion by using nonsense off-topic bait, that will show them!"

 

Try again.
