Is the Switch the best Console since the PS2?

No. PS2

>FFX
>Okami
>Ico
>Shadow of the Colossus
>SMT nocturne
>Kingdom Hearts II
>MGS2
>MGS3
>Silent Hill 2

I'm not even counting games that aged like milk like GTAIII

Look, I'm a Nintendofag myself. But literally the only exclusives of that caliber are Odyssey and BotW (and I'm generous including BotW), and maybe FE three houses. The rest are multiplayer party games only retards like, ports of old games and indie trash.

When the Switch gets a handful of God tier exclusives like in the ps2 list we can initiate a discussion, in the meantime shut the fuck up.

shut the fuck up, spic

OP said "since the PS2" you illiterate fuck

Yes. A system with like 1 game worth playing per year it's so like the PS2.

How the fuck does one measure "fun and soul"?

>in terms of fun and soul
You're a fucking mental destitute, I feel sorry for your parents.
Consoles are as good as the software made for them, and the switch is full of old game ports and a couple of good exclusives. The PS2 had tons of good games made specifically for the platform and didn't rely on ROMs you could download for an emulator.

This.
Switch is the epitome of soulless.

It's a vita, but you can use not retarded storage, and plug it into a tv.
Only thing I can think about is maybe joycon drift shit
Paid online and not building in an ethernet port on the dock.
it's kind of made up for since generic Ethernet over USBs are a LITTLE more friendly with it than the Wii and Wii U
It's borderline unforgivable for games not to have a LAN mode in this day and age if they have online mode. Fuck even nintendo let's you use VPNs for online play for like all of their games that have online

I like how the steam one is the longest shitpost and yet there is no epic games shitpost here
chinkoid shills

Wasnt it Dreamcast who introduced paid online? Xbox popularized it though.

100% accurate.

>objectively worse ports of everything
>ports from the Wii U with little added/changed, charged for full price
>Super Mario Odyssey as the only must-have exclusive

No, the Switch doesn't have even 1/10th the value of the PS2.

Sega Online was an isp. You could connect through your own internet connection if you had one already iirc.

>muh chinks
Seething steamcuck.
Epic isn't included because no one actually uses it.

It’s got exclusive rights to Deadly Premonition 2 so there’s some kind of care towards cult fanbases.
You wouldn’t get that with XBONE or PS4, they just cater to the lowest common denominator normalfag.

Nintendo has been swinging their wii warchest around on indies and auteurs since before the switch launched in order to secure their future. I'm waiting to see how all these investments pay off this, and more interestingly, next gen.

No, the gameboy advance and DS hold that distinction. The switch is finally getting more good games but the amount of dog shit and 3+ year old PC ports vastly outweighs the good.

>Is the Switch the best Console since the PS2?
>Released after VITA
>Many of the exact same problems as the Vita
Fuck no. Releasing physical games that are only half on the cartridge should lead to a class action lawsuit.

My god Nintendo dick suckers are annoying as fuck

Your consoles are IRRELEVANT.

>barely a few worthwhile games like 3h
Yeah, it's a truly fun and soulful console

XBAND was the first paid online. Seganet also was paid online, but was optional

Why’d you post a selfie?

>Many of the exact same problems as the Vita
The switch gets Physical copies and doesn't have a retarded proprietary 4mb/s storage sold at like a 200% premium

The vita’s biggest issues were a poor launch and over priced memory cards
Switch is a vita done right

I don't think anyone else is looking at the long game. Being a platform where quirky shit thrives is going to destroy other platforms that usually get those releases out of sheer size of the user base. Imagine if something like psyconauts was exclusive.

>it only has wiiu games and old ports for twice the price with added practices like lootboxes, dlcs, cut content, paid online, season pass

Hell No

both fucked the backups option though. Backups I mean simply as taking your legally purchased games from the mem card and backing it up to your PC or some flash-drive. The Vita allowed you to do that, but only through some DRM ridden piece of shit app. Hackers fixed it and made it work just like on PSP though.

The Switch though? It can't be done at all. You literally can't back anything up. Sure, you can transfer the files from the SD card to your PC, but if you transfer them back to the Switch, they won't work... they'd have to be re-downloaded again.

No? I moved my stuff to a 256gb sd from a 32gb one and it worked fine

The only soul Switch can provide is the bliss you feel after successfully pirating a game in it

wait really?

I remember reading some time ago that it doesn't work.

are you sure you just transferred everything from one card to another and it worked?

have you tried backing stuff up to your computer? deleting it from the Switch, and then transferring it back to the Switch from your computer?

I fucking hate this guy. All his videos are click bait bullshit and he's the biggest basedboy in the world. Funny thing is he used to actually be watchable. Back when he lived in australia he did a rip off of the Game Chasers show but he was actually entertaining. After moving to America he just became a lazy boring and click baiting fag.

How would it be on my switch if I took the sd card out?

Vita also required you to back up entire 3.3GB digital games if all you wanted to do was back up a 1MB save file. So with their terrible read speed you'd routinely spend 10 minutes or more doing that. And when you delete a digital game it also deletes your save with no option not to do that.

are you retarded? Transfer it to the SD card, and then put the SD card back in the Switch...

this was meant for:

that guy

Why though?

The best console after the PS2 is the Nintendo DS.

nevermind...

you were trying to go for a roast but came out looking like a fucking retard since that photo is clearly not a selfie

No, but this will be.

Attached: Switch Lite.jpg (1280x720, 249K)

what fucking bullshit. The PSP was so insanely better than the DS. I rmeember getting a DS Lite, the cool looking red one, and I bought an Acekard2i with it. I pirated literally every popular game, and liked NONE of them.

Plenty of them had promise, but that was back when Ninty was on their "innovative" schtick, with the Wii etc. So they made games like Zelda controllable only through the Stylus stick, which was completely unnecessary. I played and finished Spirit Tracks somehow, and ended up not even bohtering with Phantom Hourglass. Aside from that, the Dragon Ball Origins games could have been so amazingly good were they not fucked by the stylus only inputs. They literally could have been Dragon Ball versions of the Legacy of Goku games, but they completely fucked them up. Imagine those games remade for Switch with proper controls.

This is how it feels to me, take a game like The Witcher 3, or Skyrim, or BotW, and then make them only playable with motion controls or a stylus. It's so laughably stupid. DB Origins was the game that everyone expects DBZ Kakarot to be, in the DB world with Goku as a kid, and they completely squandered and because of Ninty's obsession with pushing the stylus bullshit.

fuck, I couldn't stand Ninty back then. I'm so glad they're passed that derpy phase. Switch has probably already overtaken the PS2, PSP and PS Vita as my favorite system of all time now. All it really needs now is the Metal Gear series.

I've had more fun with bloodborne compared to mario, mario kart and botw combined, so no

its not even technical on ps2 level because it hasnt a ethernetport
go away basedswitchlet

oh yeah, one more thing, for those of you unaware, there was one DS game I liked, but just one. It was a Dragon Ball fighting game that never made it out of japan. They made a sequel for it on the 3DS, but it's inferior to the DS game in every way. The 3DS game is like a downy Dragon Ball FighterZ, but the DS game was an incredible fighting game, with a story mode that was on par with the original Budokai game. It even had some cool what if segments. It had one of hte best story modes in any dragon ball fighting game. I wish it'd been localized. It was called Dragon Ball Ultimate Butouden.

DS had very intense third party support and plenty of high quality games. I won't say PSP wasn't a very good competitor and a close second for the role: PS1 emulation, Monster Hunter and some nice games did good for it.

Both models of ps2 needed you to buy an attachment for ethernet didn't they?

nope the newer model didnt need an adapter, if you dont believe me look it up:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_2_online_functionality
thats right folks nintendo so_y is defending this

Lite didn't. I know because I use it to my computer to play games without disks.

I mean earlier I said it was stupid that the dock doesn't have an ethernet port, but you know, whatever. Neat that the slim ps2 has ethernet built in.

Nah that’s the Wii or DS

Switch is still great though and I’ll admit I might be blinded by nostalgia

ps2 games eventually went down in price though
nintendo fags are so blind in their fandom they allow nintendo to eternally charge full price or near full price for all their games

Why did this faggot photoshop his eye colour?

>DS
Absolutely.
>Wii
Nah. Some of the best games in the gen don't save that console from its troubles.

Fuck no.

>screen show one of the worst pokemon games and alot of late port of indies or worse versions of 3rd party
is this satire?

Switch is more for gamers and hobbyists than the PS4/Xbone. PS4/Xbone are for fifa playing normies that want a box to watch netflix and other non gaming shit, while the Switch is purely for games and as a result doesn't have a bloated as fuck OS that take ages to boot up, getting into a game taking usually less than 20 seconds. So in that way it is like the PS2 because its made for games first and everything else secondary, meanwhile the other modern systems are entertainment boxes first, games second.

Attached: 1549566592839.png (277x385, 112K)

I don't get why people even want netflix on the Switch...

If you have a Switch, you probably have a PC too. Just get it on that.

It's only the console only faggots who don't even own a PC that thinks having Netflix is a must for a system, because they don't know what a gaming console actually is for.

>for gamer and hobbyist
>data shows that the switchsoys play many great games for the first time after being released on switch years after
yeah sure

wtf? did he photoshop his eyes to be bluer or something?

As a console it is literally a step down from the Wii U. Only portability saves it from being an objective downgrade.

It's just a Vita with Nintendo ports instead of Sony, no soul.

Don’t believe everything you read on the internet kid

Should I buy one?
I despise Nintendo games, but Astral Chain and Daemon X are quite fun.

Most room layouts don't support connecting your PC to your TV user... you DO have friends over to watch things with you, right??

Friends are a normalfag concept.

I have changed sd cards like 3 times on my Switch and never lost anything, the only thing it does is getting prompts for downloads, but then scans for existing files and then just finds it, its almost as easy as changing folders for your Steam installs.

If it wasn't for MHGU and Smash being a good game to play with friends, I would have sold this shit.

Every Nintendo handheld has soul. The Switch is the first console to have it, simply because it had the benefits of handheld titles.

You say that like you've played them already. If you are emulating them and are content with that just stick to emulation. Look at the games on the switch, do they appeal to you? For me I dislike a lot of what Nintendo produces these days, but I got one and have gotten more use than I thought I would. I wouldn't consider Astral Chain a console seller, but it is very good, and I can't speak on Daemon X Machina since I haven't bought it yet.

Oh, no. Oh no no no no.....

So deragatory names are now the consoles fault?

And the PS4 is a literal step down from the PS3 and PS2 in everything except graphics

well shit, goddamn I didn't know it was that easy.

And to think, I "archived" a bunch of huge games when I could've just transferred them to my PC.

Wait, is there a way to tell which game is which when you're in your Switch's SD card directory on your PC?

His Survey was his ass
The survey takers were corn and the expert was Dr. toilet paper

PC gaming have turned me into a turbo jew, never paying more than $20 for a vidya, but every console game is at least $50 holy shit.
Wanted to get the ps1 classic or snes mini but no one sells them anymore.

Yeah they literally have their own folders

Switch's UI has no soul.

All of these can be applied to any consolewar faggots console of choice

sure its all the hardcore gamers that play good games that buy 3 year old games on mass oon the switch!
Switchlet are also brainlets, who knew.

As said, as long as you have a SD card reader, its as easy if not easier than managing your Steam folders

There was moment when Sony tried to forgot about PSP and it survived mostly thanks to monhun, locoroc and patapon.
It was great homebrew machine, but it honestly struggled in beginning, because of Sony mismanagement.
On other hand DS had steady supply of good titles all time. DS Lite was also smexy as fuck.

SNES was great. It produced Nintendo's greatest titles in addition to some of the greatest third party installations in history. You are right though, Nintendo has never really made a bad handheld unless you count that monstrosity Virtual Boy as a "handheld"

Hmm, maybe its the consumers trying out the novelty of having it be on a portable system?

>shitty downgraded ports
>shovelware
>soulless bibendo games
Switch games catalogue is a garbage can.

I like playing it because it doesn't sound like a jet plane taking off like my PS4pro does.

After the ps2 we only had soulless consoles.

It's not better than PS3.

>free online
>higher-quality exclusives
>better controller
>you can add a friend by searching their name
>games from PS+ better than NES games
>soulful system menu
>can back up saves to USB and play literal movies
>ungodly third-party support, with games like MGSV and Persona 5 releasing incredibly late in its lifespan, with P5 specifically releasing 11 years after the PS3's launch

I love my Switch don't get me wrong, but it's far from infallible.

>implying it didn't have roms in the form of collections such as the Megaman one, X, Ghosts 'n Goblins, etc.
>implying Nintendo Switch is the only console with said collections on it
Honestly you guys cherrypick everything. Daemon X Machina, Link's Awakening remake, Astral Chain, and Dragon Quest XI S are all basically being released within a single month. What more could you possibly want at this point? It's not like PS4 or Xbone have much more going for it in September.

So much soul I can barely hold all of it

I agree with you 100% I generally meant post 6th gen consoles are the true definition of soulless. SNES and the PS1 have magical libraries that imo, moved to handhelds when it became to expensive to produce on HD shit.

I don't get why Sony releases handhelds and just gives up on them so quickly. They aren't nearly this passive with consoles. I would think they would be a little more aggressive. Otherwise why even make one? Is it just to prevent Nintendo from getting 100% marketshare?

Nah maybe next gen, 1-2 years after xbox 4 and ps5 comes out.

confirmed underage

Who the fuck is this faggot and why do his videos keep showing up in my recommendations

Oh yeah, you're absolutely correct. Nothing in this age compares to what we had in the past. 6th gen was definitely the last decent one. Not saying we have literally nothing now, but every gen after has been a relative disappointment.

Only one but it does have a huge dick that makes all the ladies run to the hills.

Astral Chain hasn't been played before, and XI S is the definitive version that doesn't have shitty MiDI music.
>also x machina is shit
Have you even played it yet?

stale pasta

>Astral Chain
thats why i didnt include it?...user
> XI S is the definitive version that doesn't have shitty MiDI music.
yeah good for you, doesnt make me want to replay an 80 hours jrpg tho, figures
>Have you even played it yet?

>switchlet now thinking we are even close of that ascendency that was the 6th gen with its myriad of ideas and titles
this gets me angry

I mean if you've already bought it then I guess it doesn't make much sense. But those who held off are getting the best version. Definitely not a bad release at all.
>yes
Okay, explain it to me, why is it bad? Don't just say generic stuff like "it runs badly on a shitty tablet and it's casual". I wanna know specifics.

I wont support retarded hardware decisions, no matter how much I want to play FE and smash.
just make a normal fucking console already

Game is unfinished, lacking a obvious pvp mode and the story is a generic rush job to.The customization is lackluster compared to armored core
also yes, it runs like shit. Thats a specific

Wii is more similar in terms of place in the market, library and many other factors.

But yeah, Switch is one of the best consoles ever alongside PS4.

t. Almighty Idort

if it were just a "normal" console, it'd be another PSBore and XCuntX, plus it'd probably still be weaker anyway knowing Ninty, and so it'd probably fail the same way Wii U did, which was marketed towards the 'hardcore' gamers.

No one wants Ninty to go that route. Why do yu want another graphics machine. Perosnally I'd prefer a game machine, which the Switch does exceedingly better than the competition.

Looking at this list there's no fucking way any console comes close to this due to hard falls from grace during the past 15 years.

>just make a normal fucking console already
But the Switch is just that?
