There's a lot of assumptions made in the original post.

Technically, the PS Vita would of completely destroyed the PSP homebrew-scene in terms of potency of the hardware, yet despite having all the precursors for a potent homebrew scene, the PS Vita's scene is essentially non-existent when compared to the bustling PSP scene of yesteryear.

We shouldn't rule out that the above scenario could be possible for the switch.

Are you serious? My PSP can last 5 hours of decent use out and about and can actually fit in my pocket. I don't want to play N64 games when I'm on the bus id rather play something geared towards handheld.

You'll have to pry my PSP-3000 out of my cold dead hands before you get me to switch to some shitty overpriced nvidia shield with wiimotes taped to it.

There are much better tablets than the switch. There are many good controllers.

A quality tablet will last significantly longer and emulate significantly more. Also, the wealth of android games trumps what will ever be available as homebrew.

The advantage to the switch is the first party titles and that will only be helped by hacking with piracy.
So if you simply mean you want the switch to be able to pirate games, I agree being able to pirate games on the switch will make it more valuable.

At this point for me personally, I'm sticking with my smartphone for mobile gaming and pc for home gaming. I do own a a9lh 3ds but it's not practical for mobile gaming IMO. The switch IMO wouldn't be practical for me as a mobile system, and it's garbage compared to any other home console of this generation(don't troll me it's just reality, spec wise the switch is weak as a home console.)

for portable emulation.
in a perfect world i'd love for homebrew and emulators to come out. but for once, for developers to unitedly say: "fuck pirates!" and not make any backup loaders whatsoever. But I know that's just wishful thinking. I just really want Nintendo to Succeed with the Switch. I love this system.


And modded with emulators... this thing will be SO MUCH FUN.

is it just me or is this not contradictory?
what 'emulator' plays an original cartridge or disk ?
it is okay to play games backed up from consoles as long as they are not for the console the game was made for ?

i dont care what the devs do , im thankful for all the effort they put into making all my consoles do more then the manufacturer intended

Wouldn't it make more sense to compare it favorably to vita? :blink: It's like saying my corvette could totally whip your Model T.

My personal feeling is it's going to be very difficult to keep hax on this thing with the way they have security set up on it.
(no cart saves, no proper browser, trustzone, etc.).

I just want a PSP emulator on my Switch one day so I don't have to bring my 3DS and PSP everywhere (Yes I still love my PSP)

Last time I checked, the Switch doesn't run 3DS games.
So... yay, you don't need to carry a 3DS and a PSP anymore!

Instead, you can carry a 3DS and a Switch!

I'm not going to carry a bag for ~2 hours of game play.
If by handheld you mean that it can be held in your hands and played sure.
It's not really portable though. IMO anything that requires a bag is not practical as a portable form of entertainment. If I'm carrying a bag, It's going to be my gaming laptop's bag. My gaming laptop being an incredibly powerful gaming device that demolishes Switch in both content and power.

Not trying to be rude, but if you aren't even planning on buying the switch why bother entering this section of the forums. So far so I've seen you do is just hate on the console. Seriously why even waste you time in a section about a console you obviously don't care about.

Yeah the way this thing is built you could potentially do anything you wanted. Definitely am excited to see this thing broken.

Built poorly you mean? With it's incredibly fragile screen, and numerous other issues.
Nintendo fanboys are officially as bad as Apple fanboys, You'll buy anything Nintendo produces, no matter how many issues it has.

Well, I meant internally but ok. The Switch actually is built incredibly well on the outside now that you mention it. It has a premium look to it, a very nice and big screen and is actually very durable if you watch drop test videos. Also no the screen isn't fragile and wont shatter because its plastic. What are these numerous other issues though, I would love to hear them.

Just a quick question, so actually own a switch to fairly judge it's build quality, or are you just assuming it to be poor build quality.
And as I told the other guy, why bother going through this forum section when you clearly aren't interested in the console.All you have been doing is peskering and belittling people for enjoying their switch.

This isn't /r/NintendoSwitch/ , this is a public forum about gaming not your little echo chamber. I've been buying and using Nintendo products all my life, I am a general consumer and are free to talk about it as I see fit. Along side he's making a general statement (that involves also the PSP, a handheld I'm fond of) and I'm simply giving my take on it? If something isn't positive doesn't mean it shouldn't be there, refer to my first sentence.

Ignoring all that, every other thread is dead and I just click whatever seems interesting in the "Recent Content" section when I'm bored.

I'm not your search engine.

Not being able to maintain 30 fps on your system seller is pretty bad. But fanboy away, you Nintendo and Apple fanboys can enjoy your crap hardware as far as I care.

So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM

  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
