Gutted for people that can't get ahold of this. Once hacked this device is incredible, the only thing holding it back is the lack of storage space. I've got 30 SNES, 30 GBA, 2 N64 (lol), maybe 80 NES, 30 Sega (Gamegear, Master System, Mega Drive) and a whole load of Atari and PCE games on mine now.
Absolutely in love with mine. I don't think I'd buy it again if it just had those original 30 NES games and I couldn't hack more onto it, though.
As in rehashed games? With the exception of the Zelda game which was started and is available on the Wii U, so far everything else is a rehash of a previous game. Mario Kart Switch is essentially the same Wii U game and Splatoon 2 from what I've read is the similar to what was released on the Wii U as well. The only really new game coming out is the new Mario game later this year.
That's what's held me back from buying the Nintendo Switch. I love portable gaming devices but I was badly burned from my PS Vita purchase. So I'm waiting for a Switch bundle hopefully later this year maybe during the Holiday's.
Hmm. See, I look at it from a different POV in that it's less about where other games are available and more about how conveniently I can play them. Like my partner has Zelda on the Wii U and I mean aside from it performing and looking worse etc, you're limited by the range of the gamepad (and if you do play on that you've got that horribly flat coloured display). Meanwhile I've been playing the Switch everywhere. That'll continue with Mario Kart too. 100%ed the main game and DLC on Wii U but cannot wait to play it again on Switch. Plus now we can do 4 player anywhere.
On a tech level too it just looks better. You really get the impression that you're playing on next gen hardware compared to Wii U just from the colours alone. Switch has Deep Colour HDMI output... even when my partner plays Zelda on the same TV as my Switch it looks flat compared.
(I don't understand the comments about Splatoon 2 though. "FPS" games don't improve much on each other. They're iterative, and besides, Splatoon 2 has plenty for a sequel. I can understand if you're determined to just not like the Switch...)
