I think it's pretty darn cool, I don't see the problem everyone has with it.

Yes, it might not have some games like Smash or some others on it, but I really wasn't expecting another smash game so soon after they stopped adding content.

I will definitely be buying it when I have the money. I think the new games look cool as hell and loads of fun. The two player and on the go at the same time is pretty cool, but first i'd need some friends to play with.

Pricing -> it's depend,like I always think,a game shouldn't be payed 60-70$... Will see....

Considering having it.... Well........... Payed online.... I think it's my answer for now (will probably buy it but I will always be disapointed :().

Hardware -> welp I just want to know what's the ARM processor type of it to get my hand on the ASM. Otherwise,I don't check a console pwer generally,mostly game type and other.

I am perfectly fine with paying 30 cad a year considering xbox live's pricing, anywhere above that is going to kill the switch. How much is online anyway?

Still need a WiiU before you can't buy one anymore. The difference in architecture more or less proves the switch won't even try to handle WiiU or Wii games.

$70 for a pro controller and $80 for the replacement joycon controllers is insane. $300 is insane for the system when you consider it has a nonremovable battery in the main unit. It was easier to swallow the awful battery life of the WiiU tablet because it could be replaced, and there are options for a battery with a better capacity. No such fortune here.

HDMI only means I will also need to wait and invest in a capture card that can handle these fast enough for competitive level play; not so much because I intend to play online, but a fair number of games I care about can indeed be affected with any kind of processing or input lag.

Don't care for Zelda, and never will. So it's not a launch thing for me, even though it's launching right before my birthday. No more heroes 3 is practically a must. Super Mario Odyssey is the first new Mario game in a while, that has me interested enough to want to play.
