Nintendo Switch (Currently Plagued) - Here we shit post about the new Nintendo console, The Switch

[starborn427614]

Hoping for updates on BOTW2, Bayo 3 etc. at this year's E3. Nintendo seems to land a good showing every couple years and 2019's was really great IMO so we're about due for another of that calibre.

Ew don't use the PSP as an example of anything. It had one good game.

Don't care, we're talking about analog sticks and hardware. There's not a lot of stuff to compare it to. Unless you wanna talk about GPD (lol)

NIGGER FUCK YOUR CARES. I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER THIS DISCUSSION.

Oh I was wrong. I actually do like the UMD drive. It was a neat experiment and also the closest I will get to owning a spinfusor in my lifetime

I put the PSP1000 thumbstick on my 3DS nub. Highly recommend it. It fits on with no effort and is a vast improvement.

You'll be getting BOTW2 and Bayo 3 for the Switch Pro and then you'll have to sit through 6 months of reading 8,000 reddit posts justifying paying the 2 grand for the scalper price because botting will become even more frequent and nobody will be able to purchase one normally.

That sounds like the average Saturday for me anyway tbh

Mario Golf has always been fun since the n64. The 3DS one is my favorite and is also the latest entry until Rush is released. Golf IRL itself is actually fun when you begin to figure out the geometry of the course you’re on..

I hope they put in K. Rool.

E3 this year.

If they are smart they can do a Mario/Metroid/Zelda theme and announce and show a new game in each franchise. That would be pretty sick.

Instead we will probably get Mario Hockey and a hour long demonstration of someone sucking at Bayonetta 3.

Still holding my decade-long vigil for more Mario Kart 8 DLC.

Well aren't you mister optimist. I think we get a little Zelda but none of the other two.

It's ma'am.

I really hope they show Metroid Prime. Or even just port the original trilogy to Switch. Prime Trilogy on Wii was phenomenal. The motion controls actually enhanced the gameplay.

I don't want an Ocarina of Time remaster. The 3DS remake was plenty good.

50 bucks for an ethernet port LMAO

I'm just looking forward for the spare 64gb parts so I can stick them in my old Switch.

Earlier than I expected, it's going to be a fucking nightmare to get one especially once exclusive games come for it. They upped the clockspeed which means specific titles will not work on a base switch because it's like running Cyberpunk on a base PS4.

Won't happen the board is entirely different and the casing itself has dimension changes..

No real improvements where it matters, all the new additions do is make it less viable for portable, and give it an extra point of failure in addition to the terrible Joycons(which from what they say seems to be the same as they ever were.)

It's specifically for all the markets outside Japan, nobody in the west, china, and Korea really use the portable mode.

Joycons do look different though, they need to be opened up to be confirmed.

Citation needed pretty much everywhere.

They kept the same battery in the "improved battery life" model and switched to 16nm process chips while retaining the same clockspeeds. If they increased them in the OLED model that significantly, then that battery life estimate should have changed.

Same goes for overall dimensions, nothing's changed. Unless you want to make the claim they made the joycons bigger, while retaining the exact same proportions and position of the buttons and analogs. And lose physical compability with all joycons out there.

What? The only reason i'd ever want the switch is for portability. Otherwise it's just a gimped console with sub 30fps ports of modern games.

Every press release for it keeps saying that it will be more powerful than the original and lists the screen resolution as a separate feature.

Switch OLED 'Pro' Model Finally Officially Announced

Nintendo finally confirmed that a Switch Pro system is on the way, and it is called the Switch OLED model. Find out more about the upgrade.

I mean to me it sounds like they did up the clock speed, but you're right the battery life should have decreased.

I guess we'll find out when they do a teardown.

 

[Brahmin Baron]

Why were people so hyped for this? Is there any reason to buy this if you already own a switch?

Looks like I'll be able to save the money I would've spent on this. No real enticing improvements over the original, and the original has sold so well that they'll still be developing with its hardware in mind. Perhaps that was why there don't appear to be any significant processing improvements.
