Nintendo Switch Hands-On - Does It Truly Bring Joy?

"I was able to try the brand new Nintendo Switch console at an event in London. Does playing it truly bring joy as advertised?

The Nintendo Switch is incredibly exciting, though it’s hard to understate the concern with third parties and “hardcore” titles – is the Switch really going to attract that audience, or run those games? Once again, time will tell for Nintendo’s latest little console, but based solely on how nice games I already love run on it, and how good it feels in my hands, I know for a fact I want it."

Excited to get mine in March!

Moonman3405d ago

Enjoy, the console looks awesome.

Alexious3405d ago

It does. Though the price is a little high...

NukaCola3405d ago

Console is super cool.

Controllers are really awesome for the experiences.

Features are nonexistant or BS.

Prices are atrocious.

Games are ALL ports for first year. Even from the Wii U.

Marketing is WTF/10

Nice to hear, to many angry that it's not a PS4 on N4G.

article: "The Wii remote was genius, a revolutionary motion controller that changed how we played games – and the Nintendo Switch is that.".....when you will stop repeating this idiotic phrase??....Wii didnt change fing Anything! the wii controler and generally move controls proved ULtimate failure outside of Vr(which also hasnt proved itself .... no matter if it is a PC or console , no matter if it is hardcore or casual gaming STILL to be discovered better solution than the classic controler .... .so if Switch is that... THEN is a failure by default!

@crimsom

no one wanted another ps4 from Nintendo what they wanted was a console on par or better spec wise considering it costs more and has released much later on in the gen.

there is no reason why this weak specced switch would cost more than the ps4 and xbone for weaker tech it makes the general public not want it.

Excited to see what games are out and ready to play at the end of the 2017 from Nintendo and their 50 3rd party developers. At least the games look great on the Switch screen. That's always a plus. I wish it was $250 like the leaked rumor said. PS4 & XB1 will all be less then $300 by the end of 2017. Will still be more powerful and still have many, many more games.

Might wait until after launch for more releases to materialize, but I do want one from what was shown at the reveal event.

LOL, What is a "love run?" LOL

sk8ofmnd3405d ago (Edited 3405d ago )

Dont know, havent played it yet. Nor will i till theres better reason than just mario and zelda on it. Ill be playing botw on my wiiu.

For those that do i hope you enjoy your zelda and 1 2 switch. God that game looked like it def wasnt made for anywhere but asian countrys.

Kingcosmic:

I totally agree. That video i watched was errily hard to watch. I skipped through it the first time when i seen them talking about some shit i wasnt interested in... I was thinking... But where are the games??? Finally i had found them and it was a VERY weak offering... Like who watched that shit and actually went wow this the best performance by nintendo? That video while not as bad as the xb1 reveal... Its surely up there. Esp when they went miyamoto and then to those two people at the end and they were asking eachother about the release date for zelda... I wanted to claw my eye balls out. The president at nintendo looks like he needs to be put out to pasture like the wiiu.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Review

Michael from NoobFeed writes: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Switch 2 Edition is the same game that you know and love, but with additional bells and whistles that somehow make a perfect game even better. With a feature-rich companion app, true 4K visuals, buttery-smooth 60fps, and an extra save file, what's not to love?

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition review - ChristCenteredGamer

CCG writes - "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition successfully takes one of Nintendo’s best titles and makes it look and run exponentially better than it ever has before. After playing this new version, it’s hard to think that I settled for such a worse-performing version all these years. "

I say this as an owner of a switch 2 officially now (got it finally last week). Thats all well and good, but lots of us were saying the switch was underpowered to begin with - then labeled as haters (why would a hater buy a device they hate?).
I loved BOTW on Switch but could never escape the feeling that despite how good, it just felt.... old... graphically.

Glad to see theres an elevated experience on the new switch 2... but the point still stands - imagine if Nintendo released an actual real console with the full power of the series x or ps5. then imagine what BOTW could look like. I wish Nintendo would do something like what MS did with series x/s - release a full proper console as the flagship, then have the switch as the portable scaled down option. They both play the same games, but the console would run the full blast version of the games. That would be a win in my book.

also like MS (and occasionally Sony), I wish Nintendo would release these upgrades for free. A new switch 2 game is already $80, and they're charging $18 to play a game you already own with better frame rates and resolution. thats almost as bad as them charging money for the "welcome tour" game, that literally just shows you the features of the switch. not a cheap system after purchase.

MrBaskerville267d ago

It's not free, but the upgrades are included in the Nintendo subscription service thingy.

rlow1267d ago

@MrBaskerville

Which still means your paying for it.

1nsomniac267d ago

…which is exactly what he just said - “it’s not free”.
