Now Cyanogen is dead. This is an example of some of the stupid decisions McMaster made.

Not even 5% of all video games have a gay or transexual character. Perhaps maybe 5% of characters in a videogame should be gay or transexual? Would that be fair for you?

Me too.

It's hard to realize it confront prejudice in gaming, but it's there.

They could do it without having stereotypes. Dragon Age is a series that does this well. Again it may or may not be important to the game, but it is to the person playing the game.

Imagine if characters in videogames we're predominantly black. Do you think videogames would be as popular? How do you think people who aren't black would feel? Just to prove my point:

Maybe not everyone sees things as you do. The Switch bright me back to console gaming. I had skipped this generation entirely. My last consoles were the PS3 and Wii. I saw nothing on the new consoles that made me want to purchase a "next gen console" (especially since I could have better experiences on PC).

For me the Switch is a refreshing game changer. I can now seamlessly take my gaming on the go without missing a beat.

Is the Switch perfect?...

I'm a gamer and I own the Switch (I also own a gaming PC). Breath of the wild is selling more than 1-2 switch so your statement about this being a casual console is wrong.

100 does not mean perfect. Many reviewers have said this.

If that is the case, then every console should be doomed because PCs offer superior graphics.

Pixels aren't what make games entertaining, gameplay is.

This is a good step forward for the industry. Everyone should be able to identify with characters in a game.

People like to feel represented in videogames. It helps you feel more connected. It's hard for a majority to understand this because they already are represented. To this day it annoys me that a majority of videogame protagonists are white men.

Good, the less bigots in gaming the better.

What exactly haven't they learned? Please give us your expertise.

The problem with utilizing the Vita like a Switch is you have to buy two devices (a PS4 and a Vita) that is more expensive than getting just the Switch. Another issue is that not all games support remote play. The Switch is what I thought the Vita would be, and I love it!

What are you on about? Have you seen the graphics of Fast rmx? Secondly, graphics alone don't make games great. The Switch in terms of power is between the Wii U and Xbox One. Developers can and will do something with that.

Your argument is like saying PC games can't be put on PS4 or Xbox One because gaming PCs are vastly superior to consoles in terms of graphics.

I'm right there with you. It's my favorite console hardware wise. I love being able to pick up and go or drop it in the dock and play on my TV. This is a great time to be a gamer.

Stop spreading this nonsense.

People like you are bad for the gaming industry.

I really hope they do this. I love my Switch to death but this omission would be bizarre.

Or they can bring it to whatever platform they want because it's not about your idea of what a proper console is.
