Smithee 327 Posted January 13, 2017 Personally, I'm actually going to wait until a bit after it's already been out, before deciding between the Switch, the Xbox One, or the PS4. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingdomhe 1,362 Posted January 14, 2017 Definitely not worth getting at launch. There are only about 5 games I'm interested in. PC would have easier connections to servers than a console would. Besides, a company like Valve doesn't need to charge for their online services, they make enough money off of Steam anyway. They know that a lot of people will stop using the service if they start charging. Plus, there are games you gotta pay for online anyway like The Elder Scrolls online. The same could be said about console, the only difference is that there are no more choices (other than PC, but not everyone can afford or can make a gaming PC), their all doing it now. but now that everyone is doing it, someones head is going to be on the chopping block.

Hero of Winds 2,576 Posted January 15, 2017 Something that should be noted is that not every launch title has been revealed. In fact I've heard from someone that a couple weeks from now we'll be getting a viewing of these titles. Also there is a direct on Fire Emblem Warriors on Wednesday that may give us a release date. I personally believe there is much to look into with the Switch. 1 Shulk reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way, it's not like the PS4/Xbox One had a great launch line-up. Switch has Zelda for those who missed the Wii U or who want that version despite owning a Wii U (Such as me, Special Edition pushed me to the Switch version) and possibly more to still be seen, with a couple other games already shown too. 2 The 13th Kenpachi and Hero of Winds reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then they should have shown those games when everybody was watching during the presentation, they had a full hour so that was plenty of time. The system is coming out in March and they have done a poor job at trying to sell us this thing before it's release. Even though Ps4 and Xbox one didn't have the best release, they still had a good amount of games, good or bad, on launch and showed us them during their events.

Poor job would imply they haven't sold out on preorders and aren't in high demand. Obviously Nintendo hit a gold mine somewhere because people really want the Switch. 1 Shulk reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously Nintendo hit a gold mine somewhere because people really want the Switch. I feel like people on the internet are just focusing solely on the negative aspects of the system and ignoring all of the great things the Switch has to offer. Negativity gets more attention, I suppose. I'm excited, and everyone else in my gaming group is as well. It's not perfect (I'm still kind of upset about how expensive additional controllers are), but I've got mine pre-ordered along with the Breath of the Wild Special Edition and can't wait until March 3. The 2017 lineup is fantastic, and I can't wait to see what comes in its future. 2 The 13th Kenpachi and Hero of Winds reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The 13th Kenpachi 4,279 Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) This was every PS4 day one launch title, wow so much quality. I'd pick Zelda BOTW over any of these awful games (Injustice and B4 aren't too bad tho). Who doesn't want to play Angry Birds Star Wars or PlayRoom or Just Dance 2014! Angry Birds Star Wars [2] Rovio Retail Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag [3] Ubisoft Retail Battlefield 4 [4] DICE Retail Blacklight: Retribution (Beta) [5] Zombie Studios PSN / F2P Call of Duty: Ghosts* Infinity Ward Retail Contrast [6] Compulsion Games PSN / PS+ DC Universe Online* Sony Online Entertainment PSN / F2P DiveKick [7] One True Game Studios PSN FIFA 14* EA Sports Retail Flower (Cross-Buy) [8] ThatGameCompany PSN Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition [9] NetherRealm Studios Retail Just Dance 2014 [10] Ubisoft Retail Killzone Shadow Fall [11] Guerilla Games Retail Knack [12] SCE Japan Studio Retail LEGO: Marvel Super Heroes* TT Games Retail Madden NFL 25* EA Sports Retail NBA 2K14* Visual Concepts Retail NBA Live 14* EA Sports Retail Need for Speed: Rivals [13] Ghost, Criterion Retail PlayRoom [14] Sony Pack-in Resogun [15] Housemarque PSN / PS+ Skylanders Swap Force* Vicarious Visions Retail Sound Shapes (Cross-Buy) [16] Queasy Games PSN Super Motherload [17] XGen Studios PSN Trine 2: The Complete Story [18] Frozenbyte PSN Warframe [19] Still debating whether to buy it day one or not, I might wait until June or July, but getting in the first half of 2017 is a definite YES. Was going to buy a Wii U towards the second half of 2016 but I decided to wait for the new console. The main thing I like is that they SHOWED GAMES. How long did I have to wait for Sony to show me some decent PS4 games? Nintendo has already said that the following games are coming Xenoblade 2 Zelda BOTW ofc Dragon Quest 11 The new SMT game Smash Bros is 99% happening Mario Kart 8 Deluxe ARMS Splatoon 2 And they all look like so much fun to play. Defo buying a Switch, just not sure whether to wait a little while after launch. The price is cheaper than a PS4 in my country Edited January 16, 2017 by The 13th Kenpachi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've heard there are people who weren't fans of Zelda, but BotW has impressed them and they preordered the switch and the game. There are also PC gamers who want the switch for portable skyrim. Did I mention March 3rd was my birthday? I'm one happy camper myself. Especially since I'm getting that long awaited Zelda title with my switch. 1 Shulk reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
