Just checking the Czech situation on this, and the Switch will cost the same (a bit more) as the Wii U, which I never got as it costs still the same money as it did at the launch day. Plus, there no games, or at least not enough exclusive games I'd like to play. It's nice Nintendo has a gaming device capable of running a 6 years old Skyrim in 2017, but why would I buy a gaming console to play that, when my even older computer played the game at 1080p, maxed out at locked 60fps anyway.
Before the karma rape starts, I do realize that they remastered the Skyrim, but what this means is, they re-released a 6 years old game and added gfx content to it + some bonus stuff that does not influence the game performance. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if the Nintendo Switch version was just a 1080p versin of the 2011 original, with the added bonus content. And that is the whole problem with remastered games, you take an old game, put it on the brand new HW, then tweak the gfx aspect, meaning in the end you don't even have to add anything to the actuall code, as your HW (gaming console) plays the original just alright and there's no room for any advanced gfx effects and higher resolution textures.
TL; DR: I expected the Switch to be cheaper, I was gonna give it a go, but now I don't feel the need. Just like with the Wii U, I'm gonna give it some time and if the prices drop and more exclusive games will be released, I'm gonna give it a go. I already missed Wii, WiiU and all the DS handhelds. Which means I won't mind if Nintendo remasteres their exclusive games from older generation of HW, just like I did not mind playing PS3 remastered games on the PS4, as I've never owned a PS3. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

Same, cancelled my pre-order.
Will watch for a Wii U price drop (fingers crossed) and a Switch price drop later in the year. |

Holy thread revival!
The switch has been hacked last month at the hardware level, I've tried it out and it works pretty well.
So far I have FBA working, I may try the Lakka retroarch linux based build tomorrow.
Exciting times!

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 5 years, 300 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
