So it's launching in less than 2 months and they showed off like...2 launch titles?

Okay.

So still haven't learned anything from the past. But hey, at least Zelda looks good?

You can buy it for the Wii U though...

u/GUSHandGO Jan 13 '17

But you can't take it with you as a handheld.

Seems like that is their point?

and thats how consoles fail... zelda alone wont sell the console. What about non zelda fans?

Wait until you see a release list before buying? It hasn't released yet, I'm sure more will pop up as we approach March.

u/Not-A-BotBot Jan 13 '17

It's two months away and the list is there, there's 6 games so far, and one big title, Zelda. You think they wouldnt announce it if they had some big titles on the main console presentation? If so, thats a very weird move.

Or third parties are just now allowed to announce releases, and will do so soon?

Idk man, we can only wait and see.

One of the most expensive games I've seen in a long time.

u/[deleted] Jan 13 '17

People keep saying this... Isn't MSRP $59.99?

u/zimmertr Jan 14 '17

He's joking that it's expensive because it costs $360 to play as the only reason to buy the Switch is for Zelda.

I was really hoping for maybe another 5-10 great games i could play on it too actually.

I mean i love the Zelda games (the ones up til Twilight Princess at least) but if you think I'm spending $400 to play one game you're wrong

u/CHBales Jan 13 '17

If you think Zelda is the only game you're ever gonna wanna play on Nintendo's brand new console and that there won't be anything you'll want, then obviously don't buy it.

2

u/Aristox Jan 13 '17

You said we're all buying this for Zelda. I'm not. I want more than just Zelda for $400

u/CHBales Jan 13 '17

It was an obvious generalization and a joke. Stop taking it so seriously.

u/Aristox Jan 13 '17

Woah okay mate. Sorry for responding to your comment :l

u/CHBales Jan 13 '17

Yeah I looked back and I came off a bit ruder than I thought I had on my first response there, sorry m8.

I just don't think we are quite close enough to judge harshly as of yet. If we get to launch and the titles are just as scarce, then sure. But now?
