Hardware What accessories would you want to see for the Switch?

[thorasgar]

I'd rather have the one from Nintendo. I wonder why they havent taken preorders yet for the pro controllers. I hope they'll be ready by launch.

I see GameCube Adapater all over again.

maybe a gun, that takes advantage of the L/R button
maybe for VR?

Who ever said VR would come to the system.

It's a tablet

Just because there is a USB on the console doesn't guarantee it will just be accepted with every game. With the proper homebrew in place, maybe.

Yeah, i'm 99.9% sure I plug in a mouse or keyboard and it won't work on the switch. Like I've said, Nintendo is probably closing the switch off A LOT this time.

You misunderstood, I was referring to the scalpers who bought them all up and were charging $120 on eBay for them. I am not preordering a Switch but if I did I would not want to play with two Snickers bars in my hands.

Same. The only console with the most unbearable controller has the most expensive controllers and non backwards compatibility with other controllers of the Nintendo line.

Theres something fishy going on here

It's possible for them to do VR. Nintendo just needs to make a periferal similar to the Gear VR where you put the console inside a headset in front of your face and your good to go. Cant guarantee it being good quality since Oculus and HTC Vive use much better screens than what the Switch has.

Yeah, but maybe just something that stream the screen to the screen inside the headset. I can't imagine having the switch on my face lol.

But that's probably too much to ask for

I've never bought from scalpers in my life. I'm patient enough to wait for a restock.

Admittedly the D-PAD on the Joycon doesn't look great but one has to try in order to see if it's suitable.

Nintendo restocked? When? Like a year later? Fortunately Mayflash came to our rescue.

I don't really know why people are making such a big mess about the d-pad. It looks fine tbh.

To be fair the D-Pad has to work like ABXY buttons for horizontal mode, it was a necessary change and even then the pro controller has a normal D-Pad.

I'm still waiting on an NES Classic. I heard they discontinued making them. If I dont buy one it wasn't meant to be.

If there is one thing Nintendo hates more than anything else it is profits.

Only 200k sold last I checked. Should easily have been over 1 million, EASILY.

I think Nintendo fear NES Nostalgia hurting their Switch efforts (creating confusion in the market if it gets too big). I think there is a risk of that. Nintendo could live off nostalgia alone if they wanted to.
