no way lah
smart phones games still lackluster compared to a nintendo 3ds

The price seems very good at the moment. I would say around sgd $350 going by the signs right now.

very interesting new concept for console. I also tempted to buy.

hopefully the games are cheap. Nintendo rarely has cheap games which make me wonder. Wii U game price stays strong for 1-2 years plus.

PS4 and XBOX games are more often to have sales.

with de short battery life, is more a console that can be removed, instead of a handheld that can be docked....

it's for cases where u play a gan cheong game then suddenly want to lao sai.... then u can bring it to de toilet to continue playing...

Game pad for Wii U has short life span

Judging on the games for Wii U, switch might adopt the same approach which is converting games made for Wii to be applicable or special features for switch.

Nothing fancy , laziness and marketing with minimal efforts

Also not true. They changed strategy. Go see the list of upcoming games. All the titles are re-developed for switch not converting.

this might be the last console for Nintendo
which also might be a good thing
unless their Mario become post-mega drive Sonic standard

must still give it to them, they are always looking for new ways to game instead of a specs race.
don't expect a lot of PC ports to come to this console.
it's afterall a ARM console compared to the other 2 which are closer to x86.

as long as they have got Virtual Console on Day 1, it should be good enough for me.
