The Switch is the first Nintendo console in 16 years to not have any dumb gimmicks.
The Switch is the first Nintendo console in 16 years to not have any dumb gimmicks
it literally has multiple dumb gimmicks
>it's a portable AND a home console isn't that fucking EPIC???
are you trearded?
That's not a gimmick, that's something that actually adds value.
What is swapping between tv and handheld?
>it's just a gimmick, not a dumb one
Its existence technologically gimped some of the greatest installments of some of the most beloved video game franchises of all time. There is no reason Mario Odyssey, BOTW, and Smash Ultimate should be so good while also looking like last gen games
The entire thing is the gimmick
A very good gimmick, but still a gimmick
They look fine autist.
Yeah, they look "fine", but they didn't need to look "fine".
>muh graphics
There is no need for games to look any better than they did on the gamecube. At this point it's all just bloat to justify $60.
All 3 of those games are able to achieve their intended art styles perfectly on the Switch though.
Yes they could look like shit and still be fun. They didn't need to look good but they do.
>snoyfags are STILL trying to memoryhole vita's marketing campaign which also ended in a class action lawsuit
>in before ">b-but snoy!"
>the absolute state of nintendofans
I have over 160 hours in Smash Ultimate and I still stand by what I said
>B-B-BUT SONY
>JUST BECAUSE I SAID IT BEFORE DOESNT MAKE IT VALID
Rent free nintendron3
Bait harder
yeah it has multiple gimmicks, like it even brough back wii motion controls if you play a certain way
they were all p good gimmicks in their own way
not something busted and dumb like the kinect was
>god-awful Joy-Con controllers that impedes future revisions with their existence
>either an uncomfortable giant handheld that fails at being a handheld or a grossly underpowered console
>stripped down of several QoL and outright essential features while still having the gall to charge a premium for it
It's an overpriced piece of shit hardware with its saving grace being its ocean of overpriced ports and Nintendo's half-assed sequels.
In terms of hardware, it's a colossal piece of shit, lacking even the most basic QoL features that other consoles, handhelds and even hardware Nintendo themselves implemented in the past; making it twice as retarded. Its only saving grace is that it has physical ports out the ass.
>my subjective opinion is right because I've spent more hours playing a game than you
Imagine thinking this is sound logic.
>waggle shit
yeah no, i love my switch but some of the fucking moons in odyssey made you detach the joycons and flail them around like retards just to collect them
Dude. The "take this game you're playing on a console and play it on the go" thing was literally something sony tried and failed at first, and suddenly it's dumb because Nintendo succeeded where Sony failed. So yes, bringing up Sony is fucking valid and appropriate, you mong.
>lacking even the most basic QoL features that other consoles
What does this even mean?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You know you could play gba games on gamecube so nintendo started it technically
What's going on in this thread?
>Not a pro controller oddsey chad
Gimmicks don't necessarily have to be negative.
You know you could play Gameboy games on SNES, fag.
Is that a fucking e-ink clock?
yeah, you have to buy most of the gimmicks piecemeal and assemble them yourself
Nice pebble, fag
>clock
It's called a watch you 3rd world retard.
The entire sentence structure was hastily made because I'm a retard. Basically, the Switch lacks even the most basic features that other consoles have: messaging, friends, online that ISN'T shit, voice chat, customization of any kind, an intuitive online store, multimedia features.
The Switch is as barebones as it gets and ironically a step backwards from the DS, a handheld released 15 years ago.
It's dying.. should I get a fb versa or nah?
>Amibo is a dumb gimick
>he thinks botw was good
Oh sweetie
But those are literally all useless gimmicks that have nothing to do with gameplay.
>voice chat, stable online gameplay, the ability to effectively play with friends without it being done in a roundabout way has nothing to do with a gaming experience
The joycons were a mistake they’re only good for the hd vibration
Yes, voice chat is a gimmick and there's nothing roundabout in getting a game of Smash started with friends. You text your friend on your phone and give them your arena code, simple as that. Mario Kart is even easier than that. And I haven't had stability issues with any online game. Maybe you need better internet and/or a better router.
Calm down dude. It was just a mistake.
Is it weird that despite being an Idort, the Switch is actually my favorite platform right now?
Not weird at all. It's the most convenient console to play on.
Spoiler:
it doesn't
Not really, it basically detracts value for me. I don't care about portability and would never bother taking a console with me. If I want a Switch for its games, I have to pay for the battery, screen and all the other shit which would not be required in a home console. Furthermore the battery isn't designed to be user replaceable and Li-ion batteries deteriorate over time and can even bloat up, thus becoming dangerous. So I'm paying for features I will never use which drive up the price of the console and at the same time actively reduce the hardware's potential longevity. That's a garbage deal, the Switch guts in a TV-only box would've been cheaper and more reliable long-term. Either that or they could have maintained the price, but put the money into better, faster hardware instead of portability, which would have directly improved the gaming experience.
The Switch's gimmick is basically an anti-feature to me, the console would've been much more appealing without it.
do they fug y/n
they get fugd
