PCGames: We know PCs are great. You know it, too. Being a PC manufacturer, Alienware know it, too, and have a vested interest in shouting about it. Yet, speaking to us at E3, Alienware’s general manager Frank Azor broke down exactly why PC’s leading on consoles, Sony and Microsoft are copying it.
Welcome to episode 275 of Heroes of Handheld! This week, we discuss: Jedi: Fallen Order The upcoming Pokemon Direct CES 2020 and the Alienware Switch lookalike The Nintendo Switch Pro incoming?
Sorry to hurt your Nintendo blind fan feelings ,but Nintendo actually stole the Switch's design from the Wikipad and other Handhelds and Android controller grips.
The Alienware Concept UFO stuffs a Windows 10 PC into an amazingly portable package
It’s far from a Switch killer. People will always buy Nintendo based on brand loyalty and for their amazing exclusives.
I agree!
"super premium" is not tech specs. They have no exclusive games they are going to have to at least have SUPER TECH! And they will still not touch SWITCH.
except when they get that switch emulator running on it. Then that thing could be wicked
It would make it better than the Switch, but people still wouldn't buy it as much as the switch simply because of brand power and convenience.
One, you still have to buy the game to play it legally on an emulator...and you have to rip the game yourself.
Two, there is no Switch emulator at this point in time...JS
And you think this little thing have enough juice to fully emulate a Switch game?
Maybe you should wake up.
“ I don’t know it’s not out yet.”
Why do you need to wait until it is out in order to realize that if a big desktop-sized PC struggle to emulate the Switch, then how can a tablet-sized PC like this one able to achieve that?
@comic
Yuzu is experimental and most games either will not boot, or they run like garbage. Why even bother naming it when it runs would run worse than supporting the devs for their hard work?
Sounds like you are just looking for ways to claim you do not need a Switch to play major Switch games...but a quick google search will just out you quicker than you can type a response.
@Shiken
Actually majority of the switch’s mayor games are playable on the Wii U.
@2pacalypsenow
That is false. I assure you that games like Mario Odyssey, Link's Awakening remake, Luigi's Mansion 3, Fire Emblem Three Houses, Astral Chain, Pokemon Sw/Sh, Smash Ultimate, BotW2 (coming soon), Splatoon 2, Xenonlade 2, Xenoblade Torna, etc etc etc are not playable on WiiU.
Just because the WiiU has lost its value to most of their under appreciated games getting a second chance on Switch, that does not mean that Switch is not still pumping out its own exclusives at an even greater number as well.
But like I said...downplay...and we all know you do a lot of it lol.
"Switch Killer" lol
People buy the switch for Nintendo's exclusives, so unless they can suddenly hault Nintendo from making games it's really not even gonna affect the Switch in the least. That said the product does look dope an i'd love to get one for emulation aswell as PC games.
lol when someone says its a "(insert game/device) killer" it will always end in failure
That is what I call a sensationalist title.
The UFO is not even a real product, let alone a Switch killer.... It's just a concept, one of many that Dell has brought to the CES 2020. It might eventually go into production if they find a market for it. But as many other concepts it might as well just stay a concept.
Watch yourself get dumped on in better resolution than ever with these best gaming monitors for your PC in 2019.
Alienware is over-priced.
And sense I have started planning to build my new gaming PC, ALienware is looking more and more overpriced every day.
The thing is with the PS4 being so similar to PC in architecture, I wonder if we may see an emulator released in the future.
“consoles are looking more and more like PCs every day”
keep telling yourself that.
"Yea to bad PC will never get those exclusive 1st party games the console gamers have. You know like The Last of Us, Killzone: Shadowfall, etc."
That because pc owners dont care about crap like that.
PC will get games from Xbox One and PS4, plus all the crap we get anyway. PC is the way to go if you want to save money. If you are a college student or a lite gamer (buys console and a game a year), console all the way. But if you have a family and/or are a hard core gamer, PC is the cheapest entertainment bar none! If you have any doubts go to dlcompare and look at Watch Dogs for PC's price. $20 cheaper BEFORE LAUNCH!
