[Mr. Reloaded]

If they don't sell out during the pre-order saga.

Otherwise I can probably wait a bit

 

[Sir Yasheen]

Not at that price tag unfortunately.

Did you sign up for the Nintendo user pre-order?

 

[Yoho]

Nope ill just do what I did to get the first

Get for free from a friend who stopped playing after a few years

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

Did you sign up for the Nintendo user pre-order?

yep.


I feel as if it's my best chance lol

 

[Toby D. Dog]

Not at that price tag unfortunately.

Hardware or software? or both?

 

[Yoho]

Also at that price I'd rather buy a steam deck

 

[Toby D. Dog]

You're guaranteed to get that pre-order. Might have to wait until mid May.

 

[Rukusho]

Hell NO!

1. Overpriced console
2. Overpriced games
3. Nintendo hasn’t been revolutionary since 1992 - 1996
4. I’m curious on the output of the fps but from sources it says 120 but I’ll wait and see

ill wait for ps6 than this

Forgot to add that to my list too there’s a steam deck out there that I believe runs laps on Nintendo.

You don't buy a switch to play games you'd play on steam. Different machines for different audiences.

I know that's my point there's better consoles with better games at the same price point, 500$ i may as well finally get a ps5

Better games? Depends on what you want.

 

[Yoho]

Better games? Depends on what you want.

True it definitely depends on your preference but for me personally I prefer the games on other consoles

not immediately

steam deck and ps5 are enough for me, though i have been considering going back to some of the switch 1 games ironically

 

[Taylor_]

80 - 90 dollars for one game is crazy....

 

[Rukusho]

This. Definitely !

@Toby D. Dog you don’t think Nintendo is opening Pandora’s box by charging 100$ per game? The price point is insanity and already I’m paying 89.99 in Canada for my ps5 games not including dlcs, Nintendo is coming in for 100? How much is it going to be for premium packages per game ?

 

[Gauntlet]

I'm not paying for overpriced bullshit that'll lead to bad practices across the gaming industry.

I think it’s ridiculous. It’s not 100 yet but I’m pretty sure it’ll be rockstar who ultimately charges that much. Only time will tell if Nintendo overreached or if it ultimately works out for them.

unfortunately for me, I’m a fucking sucker and I’ll be buying. I completely understand why some people won’t. I’m not here to defend greedy corps.

 

[JoNdule]

Never bought one before
