Switch worries

Dude!
I can't tell about their build quality without touching them, but if it's like the old stuff then those are fucking great! They can even scan amiibos!

I think this man speaks the realest issue here. XD
In my case I think it's a little worse, even, because there have been single years in which the new releases for the Ps3 were stronger than the Ps4 library TODAY! And I can remember that happening, so it adds to my disappointment that Nintendo didn't quite do it yet.

Now I'm considering the SNES themed one. The best part is how the left analog stick is well placed on there.

Nice find, Spider! I actually don't own anything that can run [this particular] DOOM. I had wanted to get a PS4 late last year, but when the Switch was announced I decided to save my money. The Switch just makes more sense for me.

My only experience with [this] DOOM was while visiting my cousin, also six months ago. He's of the PC Master Race and he's studying to become a game dev, so I'm sure that what I saw running on his setup is as smooth as I'll ever see the game. Unfortunately for me, he barely let me play it because all he wants to play when I'm around is retro stuff! But it's all good.

Obviously I knew that DOOM wasn't going to be like it was on my cousin's PC, on the go. His PC is this massive humming tower and the Switch is basically a tablet. The fact it runs at all is amazing. And, according to another article on Rolling Stone, presumably by the same author you linked to, it is, at the very least, fun to play. Whether they downgrade it some more to get a higher frame rate or it looks as good as it did in the reveal at 30, I'm sure I'll be fine with it.

I'm not saying that frame rates don't matter, only that they're not the most important thing. As an example: I'm setting up my Genesis because my sister is coming to visit and I know she'll want to play Road Rash. There's no denying that Road Rash looks waaayyy better when in Single Player. But the amount of fun you get from playing with a sibling or friend more than makes up for it. I expect the experience of playing DOOM on a plane or train or what have you, will more than make up for the lower frame rate. For me, anyway. If it offers local multiplayer via multiple Switches, I'm golden.

I hope we get a DOOM Guy amiibo.

In your original post, you asserted that the Switch wasn't selling well. The burden of proof is actually yours, here, not mine.

I've linked to articles showing that it's moving more units in both the U.S. and Japan (the top two biggest video game console markets) than any other console for the last six months. I think that proves well enough that the Switch is selling well. Here's a link for global sales. I won't bother quoting it because it doesn't show anything different than what my previous posts did. Again, if you know something that I don't, share your link and we can discuss. Otherwise, accept you were wrong and refrain from making unsubstantiated claims in the future.

Thank you.

I jokingly went into Target to check for SNES minis, and lo and behold, there was an entire shipment of Switches. I suppose they finally have figured out the production issues. I'm going to hold out and get one once the Mario bundle comes out.
