Switch is killing it. It's killing every console game that tries to run on it. That version of Doom is nothing short of hilarious. What a pile of dogs**t. LOL
"If Nintendo doubles down and opts to keep its online subscription service as-is-intended – what damage will that cause? How many gamers will be turned away because they don’t fancy paying for a vastly inferior product."
That's a valid concern. Idk how cheap a service is, I'll never pay it if it's so obviously inferior
Sure Switch is killing it...Sony is Cluster bombing the f'n Galaxy!
When you are starving and someone throws you a cracker, you are going to think that is the greatest and most delicious thing you've every eaten in your life.
However if you have the same cracker everyday eventually you are going to realize that you just have some regular old crackers.
Nintendo fans took such a catastrophically-massive L at the hands of the Wii U and got trolled so hard by the community, that now because the Switch actually is decent they are blowing it up to be the greatest thing ever. People in this day and age are prisoners of the moment. They can't see more than two-steps in front of them. They ignore the fact that this is a 9th-gen console which is struggling to keep up with 8th-gen consoles. They ignore the fact that Nintendo padded the stat-box by releasing a bunch of major 1st-party IP within a month of each other (which is smart business mind you, but people conveniently ignore this.) They ignore the fact that portability is a convenience, not a necessity. If it was a necessity then the PS Vita would not be failing. I also seriously doubt that has Sony or Microsoft come out with a hybrid-system instead of Nintendo that Nintendo fans would be touting how great portability is and some people even go as far as to say that portability is BETTER than having a powerful home console.
They ignore the fact that no matter how many 3rd-party games the Switch gets, the PS4, XB1, PS4 Pro, XB1X, PS5, whatever Microsoft's 9th-gen console will be called, and PC will ALWAYS have more and BETTER VERSIONS of those games. Basically, instead of just being happy that they have a console that is not a laughing-stock anymore, they take things too far and are starting to think it's sweet. I fear a rude awakening is coming for Nintendo fans. Let's see what happens at the 12-18 month mark of the Switch life cycle. When you have a console that does NOT have a bunch of major AAA 1st-party games back-to-back-to-back launching and your console is still selling like hotcakes more than a year after launch, that's when you know you have a monster. Exhibit A..
The PS4.
Seriously does the success of the Switch make people emotionally hurt on this site?
