Lol that last one though!

I'd kill for a Tenchu reboot.

Personally, I think that it was never meant to be mass produced. I think they created the console to meet fiscal year projections and look good for investors. Which makes sense since they stopped production of the NES classic right after the fiscal year ended.

Now they can concentrate their resources on stocking the Switch and developing games. Which, honestly, is better for the gamer.

I appreciate the premise of this article. There were many that were quick to hate on Nintendo for this decision and call them idiots. However, from a business perspective stopping production of the NES classic to put more resources into both game development and production of the Switch is a better choice. The NES Classic is a one time sale, the Switch is a sale for each console sold and then a sale for every game sold on top of that.

It still sucks though. I never got my ...

Probably because you can travel faster.

You probably didn't have the PS3 around its launch then. Online on the PS3 was pretty underwhelming until around 2010. Coincidentally this is also when they started the optional PS+ subscription.

I wouldn't attribute that support to Playstation (by that I think you mean Sony). Sony doesn't really support the console for a lengthy period of time after their new console launches, but their third party connections definitely do. Games were still being made for the PS2 up until 2011 I think.

You lost me when you said Playstation Home was a "good to great well known title" for the PS3. I know everyone has their preferences but...

Nintendo was incredibly relevant just last generation with a whopping 255 million portable and home consoles sold combined.

Nintendo is more relevant as a portable console manufacturer than a home console manufacturer. Even in the Gamecube era they sold around 70 million Gameboy Advanced consoles in just a lifespan of 4 years.

That being said, Switch and Scorpio are two entirely different ideas.

I feel bad for the people disagreeing with EddieNX. Yes he does seem to be a defender of Nintendo, but Snake Pass is a surprisingly taxing game with heavy emphasis on physics such as weight distribution and friction.

To provide some proof on this, both the Xbox One and PS4 display the game at 1536x864 at only medium graphics settings. Before you say that this was a rushed port I'd like to remind you that development for the Xbox One and PS4 versions was much longer, a...

Providing the minimum PC spec to try and prove your point about the Switch not being powerful enough doesn't accomplish anything (or it shouldn't).

PC requirements typically carry significant overhead, and are only suggested performance indicators to run the game how the developers designed it. However, benchmarks show that Overwatch can be run on a GTX 460 (min GPU spec) with medium-high settings at 1080p and a pretty consistent 60FPS. Other benchmarks show that a ...

"For the week ending March 4."

Didn't the game come out March 3rd?
So, it sold 1.49m units in a day. Those are some pretty great numbers.

180?
They did a 360 last generation. This is nothing guys. Watch Tony Hawk pull off a 900.

The install base for the PS4 is almost 60 million vs. the Wii U and Switch combined which would be around 16 million.

I suppose in Europe it would. Most Nintendo systems haven't been as popular in Europe as its competitors (though portable consoles typically sell better).

In America Call of Duty would probably help much more than Fifa.

Then I won't buy it until it drops down to a price.

Do you mind providing me with a link that shows how many PS4's vs Xbox One's have been sold in the UK? Because I can only find Europe as a whole and PS4 holds a considerable lead.

I'm pretty sure Microsoft said a while back that Scorpio would require "no technical wizardry" (as they put it) for Xbox 360 games. In other words, there is a good chance it won't emulate Xbox 360 games and will instead be fully backwards compatible via hardware.

That being said, it would be nice if there was a way to use Scorpio's hardware to uprender (not upscale) Xbox 360 games to 1080p at least.

Show me a newly launched device that has a 0% failure rate.

The fact that you have 82 disagrees baffles me. I guess some people really don't like Microsoft or Xbox. Oh well.
