wouldnt that be the case for any electronic device you buy second hand?

FinalFantasyFanatic776d ago

This is why I don't like buying 2nd electronics, that and I've been burned once or twice before so I probably won't try it again.

gold_drake776d ago

i generally stay away from it too

masterfox777d ago

even buying it new has a major risk, cause you will get a subpar gaming experience, more than a decade old visuals, hardware limitations everywhere, storage, services, internet connection, etc, etc and not to mention the games ridiculuos prices.

Sgt_Slaughter777d ago

Tell us where the Switch hurt you, was it the lifetime sales numbers?

EvertonFC777d ago

What absolute dribble, "even buying new has a major risk" 😂🤣

MadLad777d ago

I guess the ridiculous amount of people who still continue to buy it must be wrong.

Exvalos776d ago

Not wrong but just willing to accept what mediocre performance nintendo gives you

@exvalos

I'm always told that the market speaks for itself.

I always buy newer consoles brand new personally.

There are always risks of buying used items so I buy from reputable places or sellers when buying older systems.

I bought another PS3 Fat not too long ago but I made sure it was from a good seller and they don’t sell banned systems and they also give a warranty plus they are always there to help with parts if you need them later down the road .

Finding a good seller is key for any used items.

EvertonFC777d ago

Yeah console wise I would never buy used, I always find it's only about £50/75 more to buy new anyway so may as well save for an extra month.
I also find if you're struggling with finances to buy new then maybe it's not even the right hobby in the 1st place tbh as we all know it's an expensive hobby.
I know that sounds mean ☹️

I’m with you. My switch however was given to me by my brother when he upgraded to the OLED.

XxINFERNUSxX777d ago

I was thinking of buying a first gen Switch used off ebay. Wipe it clean and modding it to run home brew, roms, tons of emulators. https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Review - Star Overdrive (Switch) | WayTooManyGames

WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "That, perhaps, is the greatest takeaway from the entire ordeal: the love. However much you may roll your eyes at the classic trope of a boy coming to the rescue of a girl, there’s such genuine emotion in the notes that Nous has left for Bios. There’s some brilliant voice acting done by Nous, which must fill the silence that Bios creates as he refrains from making a single noise throughout the journey. But she longs for him, she holds his heart dear, and his determination and steadfast movement through hostile, unknown dangers to find her again speak volumes without a word. It’s not a perfect title, but it’s wonderfully memorable, and I highly encourage anyone and everyone to take a chance on Star Overdrive. The beauty is simple, in the end: Bios and Nous are one, and that drives their entire future to the stars and beyond."
