and yet it can output shit like this

Oh, you see now see up to like 100 meters in semi-realistic graphics before the console's renderer reaches its limits, damn. It look 2010'ish at best. Compare to a game released in 2006:

Quite the similarities, huh? :P

And now a "real" current technology title (around 2014) with far vision (GTA 5 for PS4):

We have 2017 and that's Nintendo's best. Nintendo fanboys delusional as always but I'll be labeled a troll just watch :P

It looks to me like Mario has just blown a right big fart out and the bloke on the left is looking at him to say, that one stank bad! Mario is looking at him with a look of relief on his face as he goes along..

He should call the Government, they could catch him and dissect him to finally know how he can jump so high.

Yeah and? The graphics look 2010'ish at best. Compare to a game released in 2006:

I saw a video of Bully yesterday, and it didn't look nearly as good as this picture.

All I wanted was a proper console. Not this half baked hybrid.

It remains to be seen if this strategy is successful, I predict it will do 3DS level sales but nowhere close to the 100 million Kimishima is predicting.

This is a 3DS+ but it will sell due to the 3DS's decent success, not the Wii U's :P

You are trolling. As far as we're aware, there's still the potential for a GTA5 port on Switch. It's 1.1TFlops to XB1's 1.3TFlops. Let's not pretend that even PS4 is impressive compared to modern graphics technology...it's 2011 GCN architecture FFS. Nvidia > AMD every day of the week. Regardless, you don't buy consoles for high-end power. At least Switch offers unique functionality that makes the hardware worthwhile.

Yet again heavily dumped down if at all and I heavily doubt it even happens because Nintendo is terrible as usual and can't even keep up with current gen using their next gen device. How pathetic is that? None of the modern games want to be on the Switch now or any other Nintendo platform. They tried and failed on Wii, gave up on Wii U later on and now on the Switch they probably won't even bother anymore due to underpowered hardware.

Unique in being a 3DS+ console which can be connected to the TV screen. Wooow, so innovative. The same can be done with smartphones or laptops (which are far superior devices) if one wanted to but at the same time there are actually games coming out for those devices unlike the 5 Nintendo launch titles which are basically 4 rehashes till later when you get a few more. Who is going to carry around the Switch, a smartphone and a laptop now when travelling? Gaming nerds that want to play the same game at any time don't have the need to travel so stay at home and just play your "proper" home console or handheld. The selling point of the Switch is pointless. Even so, why not just switch the game when you start travelling. Not that this ever bothered anybody because things get dull so again, play the same game all day and stay at home if it matters to you that much :|

That'd be great if you could drop the schtick for a second and make some valid points rather than going full tard for the apparent purpose of trying to trigger me. It's not going to work. I mean, maybe you are just completely tech illiterate, but even if that were the case, c'mon man. 3DS is 240p. A "3DS+" would be 480p at best, not 720p/1080p. A decent gaming laptop is like $2000. A smartphone plays garbage mobile games, not console games. If you can't discern why there'd be demand for a hybrid console, then you're pretty much the only one.

At 85% of the power of an XB1, nothing needs to be "heavily dumped down." It's minor graphical changes at worst. Switch supports Vulkan, NVN, and OpenGL. It's the only console to support multiple APIs like PC. PS4/XB1 only support a single API each, forcing devs into something that often doesn't work as well for them.

You don't seem a troll to me, you look more like some kind of hater. And that's funny, because you're getting mad with everyone that defends Switch saying he's a fanboy.

Ah, apparently I made no valid points. How delusional are you? Just re-read my posts.

You're arguing from a graphics stand-point but the purpose is the one of a 3DS+, you can play on the go and on the home TV screen. Games are dumbed down since it's more a handheld than a home console still since it can't even beat the 2012 consoles by the competition in terms of hardware
A decent gaming laptop is like $2000. A smartphone plays garbage mobile games, not console games.
A laptop isn't just a gaming device unlike Nintendo consoles so you pay more for a good reason. And even for around 500 $ you get better hardware than the Switch. In case you didn't catch on, smartphones are now starting to receive big/elaborate mobile games (e.g. Pokémon GO and Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links) which are only slightly simpler than their "full" console counterparts and the gap is closing

That's great, but basically no 3rd party developers will makes games for it. Skyrim being one of the exceptions to make Nintendo look less retarded than the 3rd party support is going to be yet again. You come back in a couple months/a year and admit this was true ;)

There are no console wars anymore. Consoles had gone in a terminal illness and they don't care to fight anymore, they only die slowly watching the almighty PC take over half their tasks of yonder while smartphones take the other half.
Here the only fight is between a deluded variety of fanboys, that fight because... who knows? they have no life perhaps?

I'm pretty sure the smartphones will take the PC half very soon, so we will all be part of the smart race.

Yup, that makes every post of yours in this thread now. The things you type are incredibly childish and full of logical holes, and it's simply not worth my time responding any more, so on the ignore list you go.

My only horse in this race is pointing out obvious factual errors and fallacies. I already own a high-end gaming PC. Which is why Switch is the only current-gen console worth a damn in my eyes, it provides use cases that my PC cannot, while Sony/MS' worthless bricks would just sit on a shelf. I'll say it again so everybody can get it through their skulls: you don't buy a console for high-end power. Thus arguing over how PS4's 1.8 TFlops is "so much more impressive" than Switch's 1.1 TFlops is a fucking joke. That's 1.8 TFlops to my PC's ~18 TFlops. 10x the power and Sony didn't even manage a form factor 1/10th the size. Pathetic.

If a developer can do enough optimization to get a game running on the "weak" PS4, then it's not much more work to get it running on the "weak" Switch. Consoles are all in the same class of power, the only thing below them are smartphones.
