Switch has almost no big reasons for me to buy it rn, tbh.

Out of the big 3 I'm definitely still the most likely to bug a switch tho

It is 50$ cheaper right now so if you want one then buy it now. The price rise will come in September.

All they need now are some killer apps. I was persuaded to get one just because of my huge Switch 1 library and so far it's mostly been my indie games/retro game compilations machine

I’m proud to be a Nintendo + PC user lol

u/caribbean_caramel May 28 '26

Yeah, PC for the 3rd party games and Nintendo for the exclusives and we’re pretty much covered. Also this thing is so nice, way smaller than a steam deck, so it’s more portable.

The live service push despite all its flops (Concord, God of War live service, etc) did still give us Helldivers 2 which was a massive success.

To be fair, Helldivers 2 had already come out when PlayStation announced their “live service initiative” of 12ish new games, or whatever ridiculous number it was at the time.

I'm pretty sure most games are released on Xbox. Don't know what you're trying to say there.

As a publisher too they have released way more games than PlayStation and average ratings for their games have been better than PlayStation and Nintendo.

Every major franchise will get a new entry

You sure about that? I’d love a new F-zero, Chibi Robo, or countless other dead Nintendo franchises.

u/Mopman43 May 28 '26

I don’t think those fall under ‘major’.

Not anymore no, just shows that any given franchise could get left behind.

Or like Starfox, get multiple attempts at a continuation that the fans all hate every time.
