i buy consoles at launch because it avoids the wii situation or the nes classic situation or what will be known as the switchuation come march because if theres one thing nintendo did with the switch reveal it was get people saying "oh wow thats cool i want that"

and besides id rather contribute to strong launch sales so i get to be blame free when the third party support inevitably dies off

I'm looking forward to the Switch because as of late I've veered away from console gaming apart from in social situations, whereas portable I still indulge in from time to time. It's just easier to fit it in for me, I'm all over the place these days, so the idea of what is basically a portable "console" is something I'm quite enamoured with. And that's the first time I can say that about one of Nintendo's system's "gimmicks". And so far there's been little in the way of mitigating my excitement. Not to mention, the volume a consolidated lineup can provide is something I've wanted for a long time.

I'm not going to say I believe it'll be some great unfounded success though. That remains to be seen. I think it will fare better than the Wii U, and the Gamecube... but that's all I feel comfortable in predicting. If it eventually exceeds the 3DS's performance I'll be pleasantly surprised, though really... raw sales don't matter. Not for me, not for us. We're consumers. They do, however, effect the willingness of third-parties, and I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't like to take some third-party experiences on the go.

Whether I'll buy it at launch remains to be seen. It's contingent upon the launch lineup really. If BotW is there, or the Smash port (unlikely), I'll be there. If not, I have no problem waiting. I've deferred the whole Gen VII thing until Stars, much to the chagrin of my friends haha.

That doesn't affect how far away the presentation is considering it starts concurrently worldwide. The presentation is on the 13th for them.

Very true but I have faith in those sources, they've been right on the money so far. And even if for some reason the leaks are untrue... I'll just get Sun or Moon then. If I was chomping at the bit to play it I wouldn't be able to wait a year regardless, haha.

Yeah, and since NS is a handheld console I can see it sell under 300$. And I am gonna take NS whereever I after I got it.

Switching from home console to a handheld and vice versa is a gimmick, but a nice one since it's optional.

Well, better sales means better support right? There are some third party games I want them to port on NS.
The Japanese Switch stream link is already up and the thing is still technically over a week away.

Remember when the Switch commercial was announced like a day in advance? :3
Yeah, Japan's Nintendo channel does that often. And by looking at the time it will start at January 13 at noon in my time (My area is one hour late compare to Japan's time). And it's right after the day I finish my semester exam, perfect Nintendo, perfect.
Isnt Japan a day ahead of us anyway?
For most NA, Europe audiences (Besides Austrailia), yes.
As I mention above, it's only an hour late for me. Hope no big leaks goes out when that time comes.
And I got one of my Nintendo Switch Bingo card prepared already:
nxbingo.png

It was used to be an NX bingo so... yeah. I also know that some are pretty much confirmed, so I that's why I'm going make a more bolder bingo card soon.
My bingo card is open for anyone to criticize and discuss, keep in mind these blocks are being put in random order.

because the emulator I used refused to accept an input at some point),
You probably talking about this
"Not on any of the console versions, but when played on a emulator. Infamously, ZSNES, the most common SNES emulator, would assign the default keys for L, R and A in such a way that it not register with the computer when pressed together, effectively trapping the player in the first few domes of 2030, unable to make progress. It's easily solvable, just reassign the keys appropriately, but, to this day, searching for this online yields a plethora of results..."

So those that watched the SU episodes that leaked, there's a really interesting detail I saw pointed out. Tags @Shishœ


This may be a coincidence, but regardless, that's some really good foreshadowing. The episodes were great to. So much story to them...
I believe there was something like that before, by that, I mean Ronaldo saying something seemingly just a random conspiracy theory that ends up being right(though it'd be more of a lucky guess than anything). Though I can't remember about what now, think he was either talking about the Gems being alien conolizers or something about the cluster

I just had a little, erm, experience in the Pokémon League.
Some Youngster named Tristan will challenge you as Champion. All of his Pokémon are level 59. His roster includes Tauros, Magmorter and Emolga.

I felt like I was fighting Monster Kid from Undertale. "Free exp"

4K streaming with Switch specs is like attempting to construct a rollercoaster out of mashed potatoes.

Ambitious, but it will crumble.
I feel like that depends mostly on how dry the mashed potatoes are.

If they're mine, for example, you could pull it off.

No Capcom? I'd expect a MH or AA(or MM if we were lucky)game from them before ANY square-enix project.

I disagree mostly on the grounds of Dragon Quest.

I wouldn't expect a FF project first, I suppose, but I find DQ more likely to release before either a new MH or AA game. Especially AA.

..I never considered that.
Few do.

My gf has also thrown in her two cents:

That's a story for another day.

I got the set from Smogon's Kommo-O discussion.

I'm using it as base, and seeing what I can tweak and what needs a buff or not. Speed is likely because Kingdra is pretty relevant due to rain spam.
I just see what I want a Pokemon to do with what it has to offer lol I rarely look at what Smogon suggests before I make a Pokemon. The only recommendation I actually did follow Smogon on is eviolite Chansey. But that was back during with XY or Oras (can't remember which one I made it in)

Stahp taunting me blue people lol.

I played the NieR: Automana demo, having no experience with the previous game, I was completely lost story wise (assuming it even connects to it).

But I did really enjoy it gameplay-wise. The camera gave me some trouble, but everyone else was really good. May pick this up sometime down the line.
The story is set in the same universe as the first NiER but other than that it's unconnected to it.

That being said, both NiER and the Drakengard series (which NiER is a spinoff of) were always known for being very good story wise but very awful when it comes to gameplay, so now with Plat. handling the gameplay Automata should be pretty good on both fronts.
