Switch is a massive success everywhere

honestly, i'm not mad at the switch lite i'm just tired of waiting for a pro version.

The same rumors that said this was coming also said an upgraded version is coming, probably next year. It will be a good time because botw 2 and whatever new 3d Mario game will be coming soon and the system will probably be starting to get a lot more ps4 ports like the witcher 3. None of the major Nintendo games coming out this year really need better hardware.

>still 720p

Switch Lite is made for children. Being more light weighted so they can handle it.

>buy Nintendo console
>wants to play 3rd party garbage
ahhh

Can Switch run gamecube and wii games well? Just wondering how this could do as an emulation machine.

>The OG Switch is basically a buff handheld that can connect to your TV
>Surprised when Switch Lite is just the former without the latter for those who never use the latter
Are you telling me when you hear "Switch Lite", a console that HEAVILY advertised it's portability, you expected a dock-only version?

No one is surprised by Switch Lite. It seems illogical to have a console called the Switch that no longer switches, given a lot of the focus is on the joycons which now don't exist.
Given how much 3rd party support the Switch has gained people were hoping for a more powerful model that could at least play games on par with a base PS4 or Xbone.

>people were hoping for a more powerful model that could at least play games on par with a base PS4 or Xbone.
lol

When I say on par I really just mean in 1080p.

Oh, you just want a bigger screen. Even though that wouldn't change anything.

>3rd party

Did you miss all the indie & other games that have come out like Crash Team Racing or Gear XX Accent Core + R?

This. This is the main reason Switch will never have 3rd party support.

Not really. It could keep the same size screen and output 1080p instead of 720. Plus it would look better on a tv too. That would require a GPU upgrade as a bare minimum.

>>Every 3rd party dev thirsty to put their games on Switch
L O L

Dumb fucks should have just made it a switch without the dock, but the dock was an optional buy.

It would also call for a far bigger design or radically different design to allow cooling since we wouldn't want kids getting their hands burned by the damned thing after extended play.

>an upgraded model?

Is that even needed? Switch looks fine to me as it is currently. I hope you are not expecting docked 4K mode or something from that device.

>Switch – 75,481
>PS4 – 6,756
>PS4 Pro – 4,547
That's Japan. Look at those numbers. If you don't think those third party devs wish they could put their games on the Switch you're fucking insane.

1080p 60fps should be a standard across Nintendo games since they have such shit graphics, that would be a start.

Even PS4 can't keep that promise, what do you think handheld consoles are, magic?

If it's already a massive success as you say, why should they bother?

A lot of children couldn't afford a $300 console, but many might be able to get a $200 one.

>can't afford money that can be earned by just one week of work
>can magically afford 2/3 of it

Parents don't want to spend an extra $100 on a gift.

>it's ok when Nintendo sells me outdated shit because I love eating it

I'll gladly wait for you to be an adult so we can continue the discussion.

Haven't you heard the VII remake is supposedly coming after the PS4 version releases

My new job requires travel, this will be perfect. What are some of the best games for it besides Bing Bing wahoo and Zelda?

Are you two retarded?

It's actually indie devs

I bought a N3DSXL last year for the same price. I feel stupid.

I fucking hate technology for this reason.

Is that a comparison between the PS4 version on the left and the switch version on the right?

Making lots of money sitting in your parents basement amirite?

But where the fuck is the docked-only version?

>Nintendo games since they have such shit graphics
When the fuck is Yea Forums going to stop collectively trolling. Will the children ever leave. Will this always a constant battle where proper conversation will ever take place. Or are incompetent, illiterate mongs going to plague the site 4 ever.

Fuck you, idiot

I know, right? I'll just wait for Switch Lite XL.

Zoomers that cried that 3D hurt their wittle eyes and bought the 2DS are the reason for this.

Are you perhaps one of those "3rd party devs" who is actually a lazy entitled fuck who doesn't give a shit about compression or optimization and only wants a more powerful Switch so you don't have to actually try too hard with your port?

Is that so?
I'll be buyi-lol pirating the Switch one then. Has more SOUL.

Yep that's basically it. Lazy Unity and Unreal devs are mad because their drag&drop engine won't do magic for them.

It depends on optimization and the kind of shit you want to enable in your game.
Even a high end PC can get to single digit FPS when the game isn't optimized or you try to run it on 8K

Because it's already hard to make a game that works well in both handheld mode and docked. Adding a more pwoerful version means that new games would need to work well in 4 modes instead of 2. It amkes more sense to milk the current switch and bring out the Switch 2 or Super Switch in 2-3 years. Then they can make a big jump and forget developing for the old model.

>Zoomers that cried that 3D hurt their wittle eyes and bought the 2DS are the reason for this.

That makes no sense. Not only did they improve the 3d drastically between the 3ds and new3ds but they released two versions of the 3ds without the 3d entirely

>he actually buys multiplats

yikes

Octopath Traveler

some games play surprisingly well but there are horrible frame drops in other titles. south park even has shitty loading times and that game is fucking 2d

>Make console that's just cheap enough so that pokefags who were offput by the $300 price tag will buy it
>Make it lack the core features that would make anyone else want it
>Everyone else still buys the regular model
Woah... it's just like the 2DS's launch with X and Y... only the 3DS gimmick was actually not worth having...

No m8 that's the difference between the original game & the Remake so far,notice everything is almost a 1:1 adaption

The problem is that there's no way they can make it so only some games are playable one a certain version of the console without pissing everyone off. Imagine if you could only play certain Playstation games on a PS slim. People would be furious.

So is the standard model going to see a price drop or any sort of sale?

I doubt it

The 3DSXL had a bigger screen that didn't change anything, and a bigger battery. A portable machine with 3 hours of battery is laughable in every respect, and that includes the original 3DS.

>It's not Nintendo's fault! It's not their hardware! It's the lazy 3rd party devs! They're just not trying hard enough!
You've been screaming this for 5 generations now. You think you would have learned something over the course of literally a quarter of a century, but no.

if this turns out to be true which it seems to be then we'll be seeing Resident Evil II on the "pro" version

the bezel is finally not tremendous why the fuck couldn't they have made a better bezel on the launch unit

I haven't been screaming this for five generations now, but it's pretty fucking obvious how lazy devs have become when ports from PS3/360 run worse on the Switch.

does it support peripherals at all? can you play tv mode? love how they shit on people like ubisoft with their toys to life games
