How dare Nintendo try to do things that could appeal to adults
Noise cancelling works great on a lot of products why don't you think it will work on the switch? Lol
Also Nintendo has some of the best parental controls features ever. plus not like ps or Xbox has kids calling me a fuck face over chat 😂

Far as pricing is concerned if they pump out more stuff like totk I'll gladly pay more,not every game they will release will be 80/90
Totk was 70 then echo was 60
And honestly echos was amazing
Nintendo puts way more money into development over their competitors so I don't blame them for raising the price to keep doing so


Looks like this should have been the Switch Pro.
Still insanely expensive for more recycled IP's, remasters, and ports.
$513.60 after tax, buying Mario Kart World to go next to your other 8 karts: $96.30. Wait a month for DK, maybe buy totk again to play 120fps.
$609.30, Rivaling the Ps5 pro on launch is enough for me to tap out.

I personally will not be paying that, everyone I watched direct with over some brews the other night were actually so dissapointed.
I'm not a Nintedno or console guy at all, but my IRL friends love that shit, had 5 sad dudes, and 2 girls they would only buy it for a new animal crossing game or Harvest Moon/Whatever its called now.

Taking what I gathered from our banter IRL, that's a bad turnout for fans it seems at least from my small circle.
Haven't done any online research to see if people are liking what they see or not.
This is pure feedback from my kitchen table.

We did admit the mouse controllers were cool, and 120fps needs to be seen more often.

Looks neat, they needed a crumb of something new.
I'd be curious to learn the overall consensus behind this direct/switch 2 release.
I'm avoiding looking anything up about it at all. lol

Until my fiance begs me to get the AC editioned themed switch2.
It's a no go.

There's enough "Leave my multi billion dollar company alone people" to sell out any brand. Nintendo consumers are loyal, could have been $700 still would have been sold out.

Also my IRL friends don't own a Twitter, at least I don't think.
This is purely an opinion formed by fans in front of me being disappointed then conversing about it.

I mean if it sells out isn't that a sample size itself lol
Yea Nintendo has its loyalist but just in this thread you can see it has a lot of haters that probably would never be happy with Nintendo as well

Also price concerned there a reason for that though doesn't belong here

Too lazy to look up specs. Are they improving these APUs?

You couldn't run games on a 1080p screen with switch 1 because they used a weak quad core apu with GTX970M level of power
I actually didn't bother finishing a couple games because they were unplayable. You would get lots of bad frame dips.
Bad advertising for a product that claims you can switch over to your TV
