    if they cant branch out like ps4 and xb1 do theyve already lost. yeah zelda, mario, pokemon and smash bros are awesome but its every system nintendo put our. i feel like nintendo is always just a step or two back from the competition. i do have a switch pre ordered since i know nintendo likes to release like 8 per store for 6 months at a time but no trophy/achievement section AGAIN and besides classic nintendo titles what are we to expect? nintendo is always gonna feel like the kiddie console compared to others.

    Dread or Alive Kamikaze should've been released 3 years ago

    Who'd have thought that nintendo would have been the ones to get me back into skyrim (never quite finished it, it's f---ing huge and all)

    You must have been sleeping. Splatoon 2 was confirmed to have it.

    I think it was through Lan play (wifi). Also from a technical standpoint, its not very practical since split screen tanks your FPS (Mario Kart 8 had serious drops in 4 player)

    :sweatt: EB games has a deal on where they give you 2x for trade ins going towards the switch, might have to drop my 3DS and all my wii u games because like i said i already hacked my wii u and have no need for the physical discs.

    i dont want a switch at launch, and nothing interests me on it until mario odyssey next christmas, but idk I dont use my 3DS or wii u discs and they'll never be worth as much credit as they are rn :sweatt: might have to jump on this and let the switch collect dust for a few months before using it

    That Zelda game Xenoblade 2 is going to change lives. Can NOT wait for this console.

    Those two games alone will be worth buying the console.

    If Nintendo was smart they would make pokemon Go 2. And have it only for switch.

    Retro studio's posting vacancies on twitter only last december. Where the f--- is metroid then?

    Why is Nintendo's most consistent division in the last decade silent FFS. Reggie should be fired if retro drops nothing this year. And where the f--- is miyamoto's "PIKIMIN 4 is done".

    Just because they haven't been announced does not mean they won't be coming out.

    I wonder If they will convert 3DS games to the switch. All the Zelda games on the 3DS on the big screen would be f---ing epic.

    Fire Emblem Warriors should be a good game. Haven't heard to many people talking about it.

    Anyone else excited about the Switch next week? I'm not a huge gamer but have always been a fan of Nintendo even though they get a lot of flack these days. Got mine preordered with Zelda.

    I couldn't preorder online but I might try to get to a bestbuy after work and get one. I was at Bestbuy last night and EVERYTHING for the switch was sold out already. So might be fat out of luck to get one at launch. I only want to because I got like 90 bucks in reward points that expire in April so that's the only reason I'd get the system it'll drop the price from 399.99 to 309.99 for me (I'm in Canada, it's more expensive).

    We'll see what I can do.

    I decided today to skip the launch and get it at a later date. I'll end up just getting Zelda: Breath of the wild for my Wii U in the mean time :O
