Yeah, but as the Switch is portable, you can play it while homeless.

Pretty pricey overall for extra controllers.

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 02:28 AM

Ordered a neon one now. UI looks nice.

I've got an order with amazon.co.uk and game.co.uk to play it safe. £279.99

Although not charged yet. Will be charged when it ships.

Amazon don't seem to have any games to pre-order, do they?

Mario and Zelda look great obviously, but maaaaaaan is that launch lineup disappointing. I mean I like a handful of games on the launch list, but they are games that already have iterations elsewhere. Puyo Puyo Tetris is fucking great, and I think that is a great choice for a portable game, but I already imported it for Vita long ago. Zelda will straight make up for everything though when it comes to sales. I am just super disappointed they didn't get more first party games ready for launch.

I will try and reserve my judgment on the Joy-Con controllers for now, but I'm just not sold on them currently based on the demos they showed. Arms looks like a game most people will just flail in, and 1, 2 Switch looks like a complete novelty game that will last for one party session. I didn't expect HD Rumble to be the thing they spent so much time on.

Big Vic 01-13-2017 08:40 AM

1-2-Switch stole the show :roll:

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 09:28 AM

Personally getting at launch:

Zelda
Bomberman
Puyo Puyo Tetris

Then it's only a month to wait for Mario Kart and other smaller games, Splatoon and E3 for the rest of the holiday line up... And Mario. Even without another console, that would be fine.

Nah, Europe is yet to confirm the exact line up for us

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 09:31 AM

www.twitch.tv/nintendo showing off some games.

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 09:31 AM

Shame the hotter Treehouse girl got fired.

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 09:32 AM

Game montage with no sound. Smooth move Nintendo. Arms time.

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 09:44 AM

Oh the grey haired bird is pretty nice.

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 09:54 AM

ARMS looks fucking sweet. It's not just motion, has controller support too.

Big Vic 01-13-2017 10:36 AM

It looks cool and I would buy if it didn't have such an awful name :roll:

Wii?

Shadow 01-13-2017 10:56 AM

Switch Destor Switch.

So Console and Breath of the Wild looks like for me. Then Skyrim which I hope gets mod support on the Switch.

"Big Vic" AKA "Savio" chiming in on names here.

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 11:35 AM

Bomberman looks like the standard fun, but man, Konami really shat this one out.

Thank you, #BROKEN Hasney.

Obviously I was trolling though.

The dock costs $100 if you wanted to be able to hook it up to multiple tvs.

I know, I wasn't being serious either brah

Droford 01-13-2017 03:04 PM

So the resellers snap up all the presales and drive the price up and none of the launch games besides Zelda sell well

Gonna be a massive pile of failure

I promise the price doesnt move.


Only zelda will sell well though, yes.

Big Vic 01-13-2017 03:20 PM

Droford the negative nancy. "Shocking".

road doggy dogg 01-13-2017 04:38 PM

Preordered my console and Zelda today. Didn't get the Master Edition though :( But oh well.

I had a WiiU Zelda preordered already that I ended up cancelling. If I'm going to get the Switch, the only thing worth playing early on will be Zelda so no point in not getting it/getting it for WiiU.

RIP WiiU you were greatly misunderstood

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 05:00 PM

Feel like there's a lot of bad news out there, but nothing that's a dealbreaker.

Weirdly, the joycon grip doesn't charge controllers. You need a separate charging one to do that ($30), so the joycons only charge attached to the tablet in the dock. 20 hour battery life though anyway.

Pro controller is $70. Why the fuck they would put NFC in it for Amiibos and increase the price is beyond me

Street Fighter 2 is $40

FIFA is a port of the 360 version

The "one free NES or SNES game a month" with the paid online is a rental. You lose access after the month is up.

#BROKEN Hasney 01-13-2017 05:01 PM

Snipperclips is $20 and really fun looking though.

Isn't the grip just a shell for the joy-cons?

Controller prices would feel a lot more comfortable if they were about $20 cheaper.

:lol: EA. Knew there had to be a catch with the FIFA announcement considering the low key vibe the presenter was giving for it.
