Hardware Thoughts about the Nintendo Switch reveal

[Sheikah Impa]

So, I'm sure I'm not the only one who has been hyped for the event. Me and a couple of online friends chatted and watched the reveal together..And I must say, I wasn't impressed as I thought I'd be. The paid online service sort of turned me off, along with the game where you play without the screen and all the small gimmicks. But there were a few cool things, like the games. My gosh, the games! The new mario game, shin megami, skyrim. They were all good. Including no more heroes 3. I want so bad.


What are your thoughts? Was it everything you had hoped for?

Really dissapointed in the reveal. Mario is almost unrecognizable anymore. Gimmicky games like 1 2 switch and arms. Rehashed Skyrim (like most people haven't already had their fill). Paid online services for having never offered a real online solution for a home console. At least the region free thing was a surprise. I can honestly say I only care about Breath of the Wild (which will be released in holiday 2017 at the earliest). I will not ever pay 299.99 for this system.

Don't care, I need more Inkling waifus in my life.

the Breath of the wild trailer look really interesting. That gerudo girl (I'm assuming she's a gerudo.) caught my eye.

Mario looked good. Though the fact their are real people is so strange.
Xenoblade 2 was a shock. I loved the first one.
Fire Emblem Warriors...meh I'm thinking hyrule warriors? I'm done with those games for about 2 years.
Dragon Quest 10 and 11..I'm a fan though I really need to play the others.
shin megami tensei and octoexpolyer(spelling that wrong) - octoexpolyer looked good. never been a shin megami tensei beyond persona...find them harder then balls

Wow skyrim on this thing?? Then again played enough for one life time.

Was planning on pre-ordering... now I'm not so sure.

Nintendo killed me with The Super Mario Odyssey release date. Holidays on 2017, Screw You Nintendo.

 

[IpsoFact0]

wow...that was awfull..

wtf are the launch games BOTW and the tech demo?

I think I'll still get it. Though, the entire reveal was just...EH. I think they talked about things I didn't really care about. The early trailers made it seem like it was a console that would appeal to everyone, but it just ended up looking like family friendly crap.

 

[Luckkill4u]

The only reason I'd buy one is Shin Megami Tensei. THAT'S IT!

oh and Metroid if that will ever happen... not likely

 

[TotalInsanity4]

They nailed it in my opinion

Typical Nintendo only revealing so much info. Looked like Mario Kart has proper battle modes though, that's awesome. Mario looks fantastic. Splatoon 2 of course looks like a lot of fun. The 2 new throwaway IPs look forgettable, but maybe they'll be alright, spent way too much time on them though. Great that Zelda is a launch title, that's awesome, comes out in like a month and a half. So many questions left unanswered, is Mother 3 coming out? Are Gamecube games indeed coming to the virtual console? What about Smash and Mario Maker? I'd give the presentation a B overall. Still excited for the Switch, but not exactly the reveal I was hoping it would be.

Any hardware specs? Yeah it has touch and fancy controls but what is with the real ones like resolution and tflops

 

[linuxares]

I on the other hand was deply impressed. I had low expectations and the gimmiky games and online pay turned me off. But when the third party started rolling, the mario game and that hell of a slamdunk ending... I got sold.

But... where is the hardware specs?

Nintendo never officially reveals that info especially not in a presentation video lol.

I hope they don't put a main series Pokemon game on it the pay to play online is going to ruin the game.
