Well the battery's in tablets don't last long and need replacing after a few years and most people just dump them and get a new one. And micro USB charging port is the cheapest piece of crap ever they always brake and need replacing. I have repaired hundreds of broken ports on phones and tablets |

Nintendo Switch. As in, you'll never switch it on because it's like a poor man's Nvidia Shield which flopped just the same

It's way more powerful than nvidia shield which had little to no advertising outside of PC magazines and Nintendo have more money than Sony to throw at it. It's going to be a big hit me thinks . Gota be the right price though

It's an Nvidia Shield 2 that is all it is. Shield 2 was due very soon but clearly Nintendo have talked to Nvidia and taken their hardware platform including the API....it's a shield with Nintendo branding minus the potential for PC related gaming antics which was basically the best thing going for the Shield! It'll flop the same as Wii U and the original Shield did because it does nothing especially well and doesn't know what it is supposed to be good at. People that want mobile gaming don't want massive immersive titles, which is why they will stick to 3DS style machines or their tablets which they are not going to give up in favour of another expensive Nintendo folly. People who want to use it at home will just have a proper dedicated home console. It has the worst looking controllers ever to boot. Then there is the developers, you just know third party devs will find no real use but to port shovelware onto it's underpowered hardware and Nintendo will be the only developer to make good software for it. Nobody will buy this over say a new tablet. |

The base controller will probably be tweaked before March, I don't care what a controller looks like as long as it's comfortable for long hours. Being able to play AAA games on the fly is what's attracting me to this, I've no time for being stuck to a home console as much as I'd like. NOW I did see what seems to be the remastered Skyrim but apparently it isn't solid that it's going to be on the Switch. The duel controller method with the stand looks comfortable enough, but using one as a single controller on two player looks a bit gimmicky. The portable should have bluetooth, not sure if it does or not. I can see this taking off among casual gamers and actual gamers, esports and shit like that. |

This is a letdown tbh....it was billed on forums by the diehards as the xbox n PlayStation 4 killa. Now it looks more like a pimped out vtech console. I'd wager the nes mini will attract more

@phallica The device is already in production i reckon, back then during iPhone 7 leaks, someone in Foxconn claimed that a new portable gaming device is being produce as well which could well be the Switch so there's no time to tweak. @silver Nah Nintendo never attempt to compete with Sony and Xbox but by letting 3rd parties in, maybe their intention changed. But i doubt we will ever see catridges prices will get discounted unlike their counterparts.

Didn't mean Nintendo themselves said/made out...was speculation of how powerful it was and what it could do...the problem is they dropped the ball after the cube/n64....sales was good with the wii granted but it didn't have any substance and the wii u let Sony n Microsoft walk allover them....but if they could get some cod/fifa market with this but they needed a beast fir that |

I don't see the switch being successful for many different reasons. All I see is another WiiU. 3rd party support will go down the drain within a year.
