    Nintendo Switch Event 2017-01-12 and Switch Launch discussion

    I see. Internet chatter for Zelda seems almost universally positive. I'm not sure the same could be said for the Switch itself, however. At least based on forum discussions. But then again trending Google search results for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch would seem to be either neutral or...

    Nintendo Switch Event 2017-01-12 and Switch Launch discussion

    With one game? In that case, the value of Wii U in terms of having fun would be off the charts, correct? That, in and of itself, isn't a very controversial statement (there are some excellent games on the Wii U) but I'm not sure I would use a single title as the yardstick for having fun value...

    Nintendo Switch Event 2017-01-12 and Switch Launch discussion

    I don't recall saying it did (if that's what you're implying). Citation still needed. Just to be clear, I'm making no claim as to whether the Switch will or will not have "a hell of a lot of software" or does or does not have "a strong lineup of Japanese third party games". phoenix_chipset...

    Nintendo Switch Tech Speculation discussion

    I just can't look away from a train wreck. Do you have a link?

    Nintendo Switch Event 2017-01-12 and Switch Launch discussion

    Nintendo Switch Parental Controls Thoughts as I was watching the video: Okay, they may have something here. In fact, I would say they may have one upped the competitive offerings, particularly by making it app based. Wait... are you joking? A cookie to whoever can guess the time stamp for...

    Nintendo Switch Event 2017-01-12 and Switch Launch discussion

    Going back to my initial impressions from the reveal trailer in October: Nothing shown at this event or any of the info leading up to it has changed that impression for the better. Has anyone seen a confirmed NA launch lineup? What I'm reading so far doesn't make sense.

    Gran Turismo Sport [PS4]

    If this were a sports game you would probably be cited for unnecessary roughness with that comment. :nope:

    PS4 Pro experiences

    Ah, I see. That makes more sense. :-D I partially retract my previous snarkiness (snarkiness can never truly be fully retracted).

    PS4 Pro experiences

    I'm assuming the OP is looking for impressions of the Pro and not simply looking for absolution in regards to his "Savviness". :razz: Some initial impressions: The network transfer process was fairly straightforward and quick overall. The process was started during the initial Pro setup and it...

    Super Stardust VR [PSVR]

    I've played DC VR, Battlezone and Rigs (amongst several others) and the VR Mode in this is the only one that doesn't sit right with me. It's not a feeling I would describe as nausea, per see, but its definitely a "somethings not quite right here, I should probably stop playing this soon". Beyond...

    PS4 Pro Official Specifications (Codename NEO)

    Do we have confirmation that its not capped in the OS on the Pro? So far all I've currently seen is discussion of the supported interface and that interface's theoretical max transfer speed.

    PS4 Pro Official Specifications (Codename NEO)

    I'm really curious as to if this will effect performance when it comes to switching between apps and games. Granted, my curiosity is entirely for selfish reasons as on my ultra lazy days I make extensive use of switching between games and video apps (some video apps handling this more gracefully...

    Nintendo Switch Revelation

    This is pretty much what I was hoping for, assuming that the Switch is the next Nintendo platform (i.e. no separate dedicated Nintendo handheld in addition to this). I missed out on a lot of good games on the DS/3DS because handhelds frankly don't fit in with my normal use cases and they don't...

    PS4 Pro Official Specifications (Codename NEO)

    Beyond the supported interface and version, I think the larger question is if there's still a soft cap imposed on max throughput. If memory serves me, some discussions on this board hinted that the current soft cap for the base PS4 is far less than even the theoretical max for SATA 2 (3 Gbps...
