Yh but its a ?%$#ING TABLET, not a home console box. It is a portable thatis good enough to display good image quality on a tv, the Xbox one and PS4 are 3 years old and are dated by comparison.
It's also rumoured to be just over 1tflop which whatever way you try and spin it is fantastic. That does indeed mean it will most likely run virtually any multiplat that the Xbox one can. Hopefully it uses 3GB for games which is also close to Xb1 and PS4's 5GB allocated for games.
Nintendo will be able to make stunning games on it.
Things looking pretty good when you consider it is a tablet and the XB1 is the size of a VCR.
The switch will guranteed do well in Japan, it's just about everywhere else. Hopefully it can surpass 3DS
This^ and i'll be buying the biggest memory card possible for it also.
Wack an SD card in it, buy majority of games physically. Problem solved.
As for only 4GB ram, it's a portable.
Yes indeed. Nintendo are looking to ge into cloud computing and the SCD not to mention its architecture is desiged to evolve.
It is ^ But there will most likely be a few more great games also.
And multiple ways to play multiplayer, you can connect 8 Switches to create a local area network. Would be pretty awesome.
You see what he did to Starfox Zero. Arguably the best dev ever but the man does like his gimmiks, then again sometimes they work spectacularly like Mario Galaxy or Skyward Sword.
Refreshing to see a comment like this at the top and not some huge wall of anti-switch propaganda about how a tablet is slightly less powerful than current gen home consoles...
Edmix i'm with you, But you really have to take your hat off to the switch. It's 4gb ram and 1tflop, so considering that it's actually a tablet, the device is (without question) massively more impressive than an Xbone or PS4.
If u ask me, Nintendo has put as much power in this thing (tablet) as they physically could whilst remaining an economcally viable device!
People are slating a tablet that's almost as powerful as an Xbox one. To me i...
Okay PPI is one thing, Vita was QHD 540 and Switch is 720 on tablet and will most likely increase when its in the dock. The switch is litteraly 10 times as powerful as Vita based on almost confirmed specs. Like I said 720p will look fine on a small tablet screen running current gen multiplats. 720p will not look too great on a TV but I think it will run BOTW at 1080p on tv and 720p on tablet screen. When its docked it will peform 900p 30fps easily.
@Edmix i disagree because if...
The switch is actualy very impressive considering its form factor. The tablets screen is 720p but that's where PPI comes into play. Being 720p will probably allow virtually any current gen multiplat to run at that resoloution because it's far less tasking than 900p or 1080p. I hope it supports 4K upscale @1080 native and that will look amazing for a tablet connected to your tv
I can't keep stressing this enough, The switch is a TABLET and a decent powered one at that, that is giving Xbox one ( A large home console box) a run for its money.
I'm personally over the moon about the Switch's specs. If it was as powerful as a PS4 then Nintendo would of pulled of a technilogical miracle (which would cost a fortune).
It's looking like the Switch tablet can run current gen games which is fantastic.
If u want raw...
The concept for wiiu is asymetrical gaming, the NX cannot do that so no, it's an entirely different concept.
They're not going cheap its actually shaping up to be quite expensive with the industry leading tegra chip for mobile gaming.
@jmc its a tablet do you honestly ecpect it to match a giant home console, is that even possible? O.5 tflops you're just pulling put of your ass, its 1tflop according to pretty much all the rumours
There is a thing called scalability and we have to remember this thing is a tiny tablet that has half as much ram as a home console. Its incredible that a handheld has 4gb ram and is massively more powerful than WiiU.

Stop spreadimg your false lies and go back to your cave. A tablet that almost same Tflops...
@jmc your mostly just making up unconfirmed things to reinforce your negativity towards NX. All rumours say its 1tflop with 4gb ram which is PLENTY for a tablet. Instead of calling it underpowered we should give credit to Nintendo for making a portable device this powerful.
Qnd if you hate the Switch so much, go away to another article that's not about Switch.
If i'm sat on a plane playing on my Switch, i'd love you to demonstrate the portable capabilities of an Xb1. I have one and it barely fits in my house.
Edit - Pedestrian Xbox ? LMAO! As opposed to the much more expensive motorized version that you can drive to work ???
How do you know can'transfer saves??? You can do on 3DS
