Ill buy it eventually...when more games come out. I love the mobile aspect of it. I tend to play more on my 3ds than xbox
howardstern143
No one is disappointed... this started with if you don't vote you can't complain...which is bullshit...voters cant complain...they did it.
DanielDahMan
Not with that attitude
photog
Or can't because it's sold out. And I'm making this part up but I'm betting Nintendo is going to pull a Wii with supplies in the next year

I'm going to wait like 4-8 months. That's about when the Switch will be available everywhere at a $50 discount & with free games.
Nixeska
I don't buy consoles on release post N64, thank you to all the people that do though.
baronluke
Incorrect! I'm going to use a friend's Switch, I will be disappointed for free.
OriginaIPoster
I feel like its got an interesting future. I've heard a few stories that Nintendo is working on some pretty advanced augmented reality.
CaptainObviouslikesthemthicc
But why is the Wii U still like 400.00dollars?
Poketroid
Maybe because its out of circulation...so its either buy or let scalpers get it
troy11998822
Probably because of all of the hype Nintendo is getting coupled with the fact that the Switch has close to no games. Makes people like (1)
troy11998822
(2) myself crave the Nintendo titles/experience beyond the one good game the Switch has out
Smeelio
Yeah, but I can be disappointed by not having the new Zelda and trying to avoid spoilers for like a year or more until I get a Switch
Smeelio
BTW I bought a Wii U a year ago, I love it but now can't justify buying a Switch, and now have the dilemma of sucking it up and playing the
Smeelio
substandard Wii U one so I can play it quicker, or doing what I mentioned in my first comment. First world problems, eh?
shinagami091
Once they come out with games that I'm interested in, I'll bite.
shinagami091
Like, a new SSB or Metroid game will definitely convince me.
hadokenboken
But I really really really want the new Zelda
PloppyTheSlopper
I'll get one, one day. Hopefully the launch batch problems will be ironed out in 9 months or so. All it has at the moment is Zelda.
iamthisguy247
Have people been disappointed with it? I haven't been following.
Galdrack
No but people like to rag on Nintendo so much it leads to denial. Similar to how Nintendo fans will be in denial about bad stuff they do.
NickHess
I'm disappointed cus they're sold out as fuck
WholesomeDucky
This is basically Nintendo products in general, the last few years.
DidYouKnowThatCashewsComeFromAFruit
The switch is amazing. Being able to take full console games on the go is the dream. I'm loving mine
profanelogic
Is there a reason to be disappointed in it?
Vodrift
To bad no one anywhere is disappointed!
Daneasaur
You don't gotta get a switch to play LoZ if you got a WiiU.
KevynDietz
I was disappointed in the Switch, until I realized that it really is more of a handheld you can play on the TV then a console you can hold.
vivalacony
Wasn't that disappointing though?
KevynDietz
Not really, I just shifted my expectations. Compared to the 3DS, it's a massive step up.
[deleted]

zailee
Enjoy that then I guess?
CaptainMinnette
Look up Zero Punctuation's Link Between Worlds video, he summarizes my thoughts well with humor. It's not about LoZ, but about Nintendo.
spudcosmic
I have a good PC so I don't need an at home console. I wanted a powerful handheld.
SometimesIFartInPublic
That's my wife and I too. Thank you Nintendo!
KevynDietz
I mean, congrats, I guess? I'm primarily a PC gamer too, but that doesn't mean I don't recognize what Nintendo is doing. They've lost the
KevynDietz
'Primary' console battle to Microsoft and Sony. Rather than building glorified PCs, they're focusing on their core competency.
Galdrack
No console will ever compare to a PC though. I'd much rather a more innovative design than a weaker gaming PC like the other consoles.
WholesomeDucky
And that is exactly why my $ went to Nintendo. I have a PC that blows the XBox and PS4 out of the water. Why would I want a 2nd weaker PC?
Galdrack
Yup, both of them have just made weak Gaming PC's which is fine if you're not massive into gaming but don't waste time talking specs->
Galdrack
If you're not big into it then. The PS4 has a handful of good exclusives now too I suppose. Though BB is the only one I really like.
JustAnotherMeh
Imagine playing the new Zelda at 1080p 60fps or higher with AA and better textures.
KevynDietz
Graphics aren't everything. One of the best games I played last year was Va-11 Hall-A, which could have run on the SNES.
NotWelcomehere
What he just said would make the game look better, there is no question about this.
KevynDietz
Sure, but Nintendo isn't focused on the graphical race to the top. Their design philosophy seems to be more in line with the DS then the Wii
Ryezer01
You can still be disappointed without purchasing a product. That's probably why you didn't buy said product.
Annirodon
I didn't buy a Switch because I don't have the money. I would if I could ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
causality
I resent the fact they built a powerful tablet and then artificially limited it to playing Switch games.
RaynArclk
Like 500$ in Canada if you want to play zelda on it
RaynArclk
If I had baller dollars
troy11998822
It's not worth it. Zelda is great, but cost, lack of titles and the left joycon connectivity issue drove me nuts
nobodylikesmyname
I didn't buy a wii-u and I was still disappointed in it.
DeepBlueNothing
That's my theory. After the Wii U disappointment I'm surprised people were so gung-ho about the Switch.
AwkwardKaffs
For me, the Switch has a cool retro vibe and a bit more flexibility than the Wii U.
McPopplers
That's because die hard Nintendo fans think Nintendo can do no wrong, ever. I'm sticking to my 3ds for now.
toriapinklotus
I didn't like Nintendo at all until the Wii U. That consoles awesome! The switch is better thoughb
Hoojamufasijer
I enjoyed the Wii U far more than I did the playstation or xbox sports game bonanza, honestly.
vivalacony
To be fair, the Wii U failed because of the company. The hardware itself was decent.
GoogleFucker
Dang, I enjoyed the Wii U!
FromDenmarkWithHate
Fanboys. Literally nothing will stop them. They must LOVE to keep paying for the same games over and over and over.
BraveBiskit
I mean, same can be said about any platform really with CoD, Battlefield, Halo, God of War, Zelda...
Anon42
I love that you say that of all things about the Switch, where Nintendo is thoroughly shaking up every franchise they have with new ideas...
FromDenmarkWithHate
[1] I do not know anything about the Switch itself, I will admit that. But my comment was about Nintendo not letting you play their older
FromDenmarkWithHate
[2] games which you previously bought. Like Super Mario 64 e.g. They want you to pay full price, even though you OWN the game on other
FromDenmarkWithHate
[3] platforms. That I do not understand that the fanboys let them get away with.
Lvaneede
I love my Wii U. So many great games for it
Hellsinkiangels
Soooo is it a disappointment? I haven't really heard much about it. What is google?
spudcosmic
Not really. Good reviews across the board, one odd connectivity issue with the controller which will probably be fixed.
AwkwardKaffs
But you can miss out on the new nintendo games... At least BOTW is on the Wii u!
OhhHaiMark
I'm disappointed in my son, never even met him. I mean what kind of dumb kid wraps their umbilical cord around their neck?
AnitaNewusername
Uhm... you okay there?
Sionas
Uh you can... disappointed in no man's sky, never bought it.
pursuant2me
You're a brave individual mentioning that "game" around these parts...
WholesomeDucky
It's not really "brave", perse. Expressing hate for that atrocity is a very popular opinion.
ReveredBear
Lol I rode the hype train. Big mistake. But now I have it, and still play it. If they keep updating it it has potential
kiwibogan
How is it three years later? Looks like they stick to their word about sorting it out
Mycologics
I bought it. And I loved it. Should it have been 60 bucks? No definitely not. But I enjoyed it. It was chill with pretty colours.
Demitger
Right there with you. Sometimes having a game that is minimalistic to wind down is perfect.
IAkuTheShapeShiftingMasterofDarkness
I bought it. It's fuckin cool, not disappointed at all.
vivalacony
Did you buy 1-2-Switch?
BraveBiskit
Bought it, had a blast with my friends yesterday
vivalacony
And do you think it's worth the price of a full game?
j00niz
As someone who bought the switch and the game... I'd say yes, out of the amount of fun my and my friends already had with it.
vivalacony
Fair enough then.
pleasedontreproduce
It's damn great!
ProffesorGoogle
The first consol that actually interested me and I'm broke af
Coldin
Same. The console feels pretty great and Zelda is amazing. That's all I need and expected from it.
Walatalalaw
Same, my bro kicked me off the TV so he could play PS4 and I ain't even mad!
JustAnotherMeh
Nintendo can do no wrong. If you even suggest Switch isn't the best thing ever and Zelda could've been better, you'll get lynched.
Walatalalaw
Well I mean some Zeldas are considered to be shit, so... spirit tracks wasn't very popular
zailee
I don't think it's really that so much as the disappointment is so salty without much reason to be.
thefatlonelyjew
RIP
ElPoloDiablo
I don't really mind Nintendo, but I hope they get sued someday for their abuses of fair use against their own fans on YT.
IAkuTheShapeShiftingMasterofDarkness
But... Nintendo can do wrong. I mean... Let's look at the Xbox 360 launch. That went real well, didn't it?
IAkuTheShapeShiftingMasterofDarkness
I mention the Xbox because that was fuckin bad but people just chugged along because they liked it. If you don't like it don't fuckin buy it
sparklepanties
Weren't you dissappointed by the taste of the cartridges? I couldn't even eat one, they tasted so bad.
SirFormidio
You having fun with all of those game?
CaptainGregarious
I bought one for Zelda, and I'll also buy Snipperclips tomorrow, and 8 or more other games this year. Also own PS4/XBOX 1 and a PC. Great
CaptainGregarious
time to be a gamer
SirFormidio
Zelda seems like the only high quality title right now. And that's not enough reason for me to get one. I'll wait a bit.
Galdrack
Best lineup for a console in the last 10+ years
SirFormidio
On Launch? You're just fucking lying to yourself, lad.
Galdrack
Man if you think any lineup before this was good you're lying to yourself. But dat Ryze son of Rome!
SirFormidio
Dreamcast, OG Xbox.
vivalacony
Also, weren't you at least a little disappointed in the lifeless and boring menus?
vivalacony
Ok, it's clear I should have used a different example (like the Mii Maker being hidden away). I want to like the Switch, but so far I don't.
Dagordae
That's still pretty weak.
peachpunchtango
I'm not, but that's because I haven't spent any time in the menus. I'm too busy saving Hyrule.
pleasedontreproduce
No, I'm not.
Dagordae
Really? Who cares how pretty the menus are, you did't buy the thing to play in the settings.
thefatlonelyjew
Or play new or original games either lol
vivalacony
I care because it was pretty much the first thing I saw and will be the first thing I see any time I want to play a game on it.
IAkuTheShapeShiftingMasterofDarkness
There are updates coming that will be fleshing stuff like that out. Apparently it's bare bones at the moment
vivalacony
That's nice to hear.
toriapinklotus
I'd say simple and straightforward. I think they are beautiful!!
vivalacony
And the complete lack of music, including in the Mii Maker and eshop, doesn't bother you at all?
toriapinklotus
Well the mii maker is in the option for choosing the player icon, there is an eshop button on the bottom and I like the lack of music.
toriapinklotus
Oh sorry!!! I misread!!!
Mycologics
What? This is exactly why I dislike gamer communities. "It was damn near perfect but the boring menus ruined the entire experience".
daverabbich
With ya brother, it's exceptional. Who gives a fuck about the dashboard
vivalacony
I don't think it's anywhere near perfect. The menu is just one of the things that was a let down, especially when compared to the Wii/Wii U
vivalacony
And I went for it because it was the first thing I noticed. Maybe I should have pointed out something else I guess.
vivalacony
Like how the Miis are now buried in the settings or how easy it is to get the wriststrap stuck on the wrong joycon.
ageofpug
It's far from damn near perfect.
thefatlonelyjew
Downvotes from people in denial
ageofpug
Word
IAkuTheShapeShiftingMasterofDarkness
Probably just people that disagree. Or do you think people are in denial if they don't agree with you?
Mycologics
I wasn't commmenting on the Switch per se. But gamers always need to find something to piss and moan about.
ageofpug
The word your looking for is "people", not gamers
Mycologics
I've been a gamer for 25 years and people need to just enjoy shit instead of bitch all the time
