A while back I experimented on some broken phones and tried to scratch the screens, and couldn't do it with a serrated scuba diving knife or steel wool. The only things I had that could put scuffs on the screen were coarse metal polishing compound and ceramic files with synthetic sapphire. If you are scratching modern touchscreens on accident, you are doing some insane loving poo poo.

A bit like how people didn't really worry too much about the 3DS not having backwards compatibility with the Wii. They're so different in terms of hardware. The lack of a optical slot. Aside from VC games, which a lot of us are hoping do transfer in some fashion.

Stux posted:its not a troll i genuinely expected more of a backlash from people its a major break from their other handhelds where backwards compat has been standard there was a small backlash but most people understand that platforms rarely have backward compatibility, particularly not at launch. Backwards compat is kinda in the weird spot where it's super important for a portion of the user base. VC makes it better. Like, I just found out the other day that 3DS can play DS games. Other people wouldn't have bought a 3DS without that. It's really personal.

It's a software thing. And so far nothing suggests that an emulator is capable of running Wii U games at acceptable levels on the Switch.

but we're in the middle of the HD remaster generation why would they have backwards compatibility when they can just re-release the game and charge full price like they are doing with Mario Kart 8

It is on Nintendo systems. The backwards compatibility part comes from having the same hardware within the console/handheld that allows you to run the older games and there is no optical slot for physical Gamecube, Wii or WiiU games. If we're talking software then it is encompassed by us hoping our eshop and VC stuff might transfer, which was mentioned earlier.

Mr.Pibbleton posted:I watched the wii u reveal trailer by way of comparison and they pretty much just constantly call it a new controller the whole time while showing wii games being played with it. It's kind of amazing how bad they hosed up the wii u marketing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4e3qaPg_keg The Wii U marketing was a complete shitshow, but I think the logic in play here was that the Wii U's controller was the thing that made it stand out and be different from the other consoles it was competing against. So they spent a lot of time showing off the controller because the controller is the way you interact with the game, and I'm going to notice if the controller has a gyro or a screen or a touchpad or a lightbar or analog stick whatever before I'm going to notice that a console has 5% better pixels. But like everyone said, Nintendo got so wrapped up in "check out the new controller" that they forgot to bring up that it's attached to a new console and not an add-on for the Wii despite being named like a Wii accessory, so v  v

I saw the E3 console so I understood that it was a new console, but it's a lot easy to understand why my friends thought it was just a controller when I look at that reveal trailer.

I barely ever really played my Wii U. Feels like such a waste. I feel like Nintendo hasn't really had a very good console since the GameCube, but their handhelds are always the best in the business. While my Wii U languished, my 3DS got a lot of play. I just really wished I could play DS and 3DS games on my TV, Super GameBoy style. So... I suppose if we look at the Switch as a console, it's really disappointing... but maybe it'll be a good handheld.
