Actually, Nintendo Have Got It RIGHT With The Switch

Disenchantment has been rife since the underwhelming Nintendo Switch Presentation but, you know what?  I think Nintendo have got the Switch right.

«Nintendo is not competing with Sony or Microsoft. They aren’t even pretending to.»

I think the same. The Switch isnt competing with the PS4 or Xbox One, but with the 3DS and Vita. It will rule the portable market.

And it seems the portable market could be the biggest market

Goldby3426d ago

if thats the case, why did reggie and nintendo in general state this is a home console first and not a portable?

It is if you live in a bubble and don't notice the many glaring flaws about the platform that are surmounting

I think it's okay but there are several aspects that seem ehhh, a little weird like the use of a phone app for many social features like inviting friends and voice chat.

Goldby3426d ago

Thats DeNA probably, they are most comfortable workign with phoens so they went that route instead of integratign it into your handheld. on the plus side, image what the battery life would be like if the party functions were built into the handheld

Aenea3426d ago

Probably also would've meant they had to reserve part of the memory and CPU time for those tasks.

Still, it's ehmm, different, like I said elsewhere now you also need to have your phone charged on order to play online.

Goldby3426d ago

ya which is a huge turn off for me. just using my phone for basic things, it barely lasts more than a work day, last thing i want to happen is playing a video game witha friend and my phoen dies out on the go and no way to keep chattign with them. cant message them from your phone as the phoen is dead. cant message them from the system as its not possible

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing37d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit37d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing37d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9237d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
