    Those Joy Cons should be dope for the indie developers. I can see amazin' multiplayer games where you only need to use say the analog stick on each pad and say one of the buttons

    I personally don't give a shut about 3rd party support for Nintendo
    I have a ps4
    I just want more than the status quo from Nintendo when it comes to their first party titles
    I bought the a link between worlds 3ds...and the only other games I have for it are ocarina of time and bunch of Megan man titles

    Thinkin' about it, this could really be a game changer. Like, for next gen, why would Sony or Microsoft make a home console that can't be portable? Doesn't really make since ? gamers all have a gamin' PC and if this Switch does get the third party support, it kinda renders the other two systems pointless.

    Those two side pads looks small but Mario Kart looks like it could be dope. Go to the park with my ? and some bud

    Nah, the amount of people who are really into the portable aspect of gaming on a dedicated device is really quite slim compared to the general gaming population. Cellphones and tablets are Nintendo's direct competition if they go this route. Sony & MS learned that gimmicks aren't going to be what long term success comes from. Good software and a device to play them on is still what sells and the gimmick stuff can hurt more than it helps to get ahead of the rest. You'll see how they're starting to push streaming games to PC and maybe in the next 3-5 years, you'll see console games coming to PC.

    Nintendo gets away with their attempts because of their IPs and nothing else. Without Mario and friends, they'd be Sega right now. Only on the internet do I hear of people who are psyched about Nintendo consoles and I personally think it's a waste to buy a console for 4 good first party titles. I'm sure one of my nephews will get one of these for their 6th birthday or something though so I'll play through the whole lineup in a weekend.

    You're already seeing console games on PC. Xbox are doing it with Microsoft.

    That second paragraph is just nonsense IMO. No diss.

    The Switch isn't a dedicated handheld tho, that's kinda the point of it. As far as software is concerned, Nintendo >>> Sony and Microsoft by a million miles so I don't kno' what point you're makin' there. They both have the third party support that Nintendo is lackin'. If, it's a very big if, but if Nintendo does get all the games that X Box and PS4 get, it will definitely be able to compete. Like I said, real gamers who actually care about graphics have super PCs so if there's a choice between Nintendo games, Playstation games and XBox games, I'd say they'd go for the Nintendo games

    Nintendo games sell very well so I dunno about that 'only on the Internet' thing

    Lastly, there's a large contingent of gamers that have been lookin' for a powerful home device to play the Nintendo first party games on. This suits them too

    It looks pretty good, but personally I'd need 3rd party confirmation before I'd cop.

    I've never gave a ? about Mario, Zelda or Pokemon.
