Yeah, nowadays everyone is loving with their phones and tablets so it's not a big deal. Sure, I mean if you are Switching at full volume that could be annoying, but the same could be said for someone doing whatever on their smart phone.

IMO if you are in public playing Switch you'll be instantly thought of as cool, so I'd do it every chance I got.

only if you're playing the ball feel minigame though.

If you really do want to show off and evangelize for a new handheld I'm sure it's fun as gently caress but I wanted to make 1.5 hours disappear in a haze of Wipeout and it sucked getting interrupted and creeped on by random dudes instead of being able to do that.

It won't be a huge hit like the Wii, will probably sell considerably better than the Wii U. It'll surely be as good as the Wii U (a Pretty Decent Console) plus the portable aspect.

Previewers seem to love the hardware and Zelda, but they can't comment on anything else because anything online-related is coming in a day-1 patch or later (like virtual console).

I figured for the last few weeks the system launch would be fun because of Zelda but pretty sparse on titles and I'd maybe get The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ on the eShop to add a bit of variety. Now after looking it up I've found out The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ is delayed for a few weeks, but am considering Snipperclips after actually watching some videos of it since so many people were talking about it in various places along with Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove, Fast RMX, I Am Setsuna, which I'd never even heard of till I found a more complete launch day listing and World of Goo. Which is far more titles and a good bit more variety of play than I was expecting, or budgeting for really. It's nice. I think it's weird that the launch lineup is still rather shaky in terms of title confirmation only a week out when including eShop titles, but I hope the presentation on...Tuesday (is it Tuesday?) solidifies things a bit.

Im glad im not paying Nintendo to beta test their junk. Maybe in 2-3 years a good revision will come out when there are a decent amount of games (like the 3DS) or maybe it will just stay bad like the Wii U. Why dont the little controllers have a d-pad?

To be used as stand alone controllers a lot more than playing retro games.

There's a day 1 system update that is supposed to fix the problems that people have to try hard to reproduce.
