His console froze when he was selecting a country and it started making weird noises

To be fair, if it were to not do well at launch, what good would it do waiting for them to fix the flaws?

I'm talking about the usual Nintendo things. Take for example the 3DS and the random shitty screens you can get. (and revision) I'm done being a beta tester for things in general. If it fails, it fails. If it doesn't I'll get it eventually.

The people selling their Wii U and buying Nintendo Switch are morons because a) the Wii U is depreciated in cost significantly, if you're selling it to afford the Switch, you really can't afford the Switch, b) you're playing it mostly for Breath of the Wild which you can already get for Wii U, and c) the Wii U at least had the libraries of itself and the Wii, while the Switch is pretty much dead-end even if it does come out with new software.

The saps who did this and got the blue/orange screen of death must be really kicking themselves because otherwise they could be happily playing Breath of the Wild on their Wii U.

Hmm. Right now I have three options.

1) Buy a switch and Breath of the Wild.

2) Buy a Wii U and Breath of the Wild. Later buy the HD Remasters of Twilight Princess and Wind Waker.

3) Wait to see if I can find the Wii U and games in pawn shops down the line.

4) Save my money. I don't have the time I used to be able to spend gaming. Plus Persona 5 drops next month and the PS3 version still looks great.

Also the Switch's plastic is designed in such a way that custom vinyls/wraps which work on most plastics will start to erode the plastics just within 24 hours and void the warranty.

That actually made the plastic look cooler.

I mean, its bad that it happened and shame on Nintendo but that is NIFTY

Journalists who had early access to the Switch are reporting that the screen is already getting scratches from the dock after one week of use.

I actually forgot that the Switch was released yesterday and bought a N64.

Meh, I like it, and if it breaks I can get it fixed free through work. Generally I find people who have scratches already are slamming the thing into the dock like they want it to break. I take care of my shit. Also Breath of The Wild is a wonderfully refreshing game, not just a Zelda game but a good example of how a deep, meaningful and freedom filled RPG doesn't have to lean on confusing stat systems to be fun.

And that is why I don't buy consoles on launch day.

So apparently, despite having storage space and removable storage, the Switch can't transfer saves, so if your Switch dies and you have to return it to Nintendo, bye bye Zelda progress!

I didn't think they would be able to get worse than that weird bug some people that saved data to USB on Wii U had where it'd just randomly kill the USB.
Thankfully I never ran into that problem myself, but since this shit's unavoidable I'm gonna hold off on buying the switch for a while.

I saw this link going around today from Nintendo's official support website regarding dead pixels and uneven LCD display illumination. Nintendo's stance?

Small numbers of stuck or dead pixels are a characteristic of LCD screens. These are normal and should not be considered a defect.

Incredible. Dead pixels on a brand fucking new LCD screen are most definitely product defects.

I've just realized that the release of the Switch means that now this plug will never be used for anything ever

It's always one step forward, two steps back with Nintendo, isn't it?
