So after sooo many months of waiting for Nintendo to reveal their new NX console. We finally a new name and a new console and it's way way different. It's not a another shitty Wii console. Enter a brand new console called. THE NINTENDO SWITCH!!
To me, I think the console looks really interesting and very very sleek. It's both portable and even a home console at the same that Microsoft and Sony couldn't do. True Sony had remote play with the PlayStation Vita but that requires always online connection. Also, it uses game cards for media input. And from what I heard, no more region lock bullcrap according the Twitter *hurrah!!*. And it's getting freakin' Skyrim for pete's sake according to the trailer. But I'm just curious, could that be a good thing or a bad thing because:
- How will major AAA games fit into that one tiny card and how much data can these cards store?
- Can it run powerful game engines that PS4 and Xbox One use like Unreal Engine 4 and Id Tech 6?
- It will engage mature gamers this time?
- Is it going to sell well?
- With Microsoft and Sony having their own free benefits for monthly subscribers, will Nintendo do the same?
- And most important. Will Nintendo ever learn from their past mistakes and gain back trust from major third party studios?=
- Will major AAA studios make use of the Amiibo feature?
Also, I highly doubt that Nintendo Switch would be backwards compatible with Wii and Wii U titles since it uses cards instead of discs. Also Nintendo, please do not screw this up.
I don't have any information regarding the console's launch and it's launch lineup. But the fixed date for this is March 2017. I hope the Switch's launch lineup doesn't consist of shovelware titles.
