Then don't.
BC pisses people off that have to sell their old systems to buy the new ones. Its convenient but it isn't killing me.

I'm broke right now

I agree that the platform has to be easy to develop for and easy to port to. I don't like the whole, "OMG IT HAS TO BE AT 1080P 4K 60+ FRAMES PER SECOND AND RENDER 1,000 TERAFLOPS". I hate the tecnical analysis videos on youtube comparing graphics on multiple systems. This segment of 'gamers' consist of non-gamers basically. People who don't care if a game is fun. Unfortunately alot of developers are forced to cater to these idiots. That's why we have so many of these overhyped, overrated, mediocre, underwhelming AAA titles on the PS4/XB1. Games with extraordinary graphics but hypersomnia-inducing gameplay.

Thank fukking god others understand this. So tired of these devs taking 3 years to release games because of these casual graphics fags.

Its doesn't have a touch screen thrown in? That's going to throw some folks off even if you don't need it. What about browsing and HD space? They going strictly old school gaming machine with this i guess

The screen is multitouch.

We don't know that yet. Nintendo hasn't commented on it having touch screen or not. All signs point to no though. Nintendo Switch’s apparent lack of touchscreen isn’t an accident

No touch screen would be really weird though. Don't see how that's a good idea

Has cartridge technology surpassed DVDs/Bluray?

Maybe Nintendo is onto something.

As far as mobile gaming goes, yeah.

Are you trolling?

"Memory storage is much larger than ever, battery saves are a thing of the past, and unlike CDs/DVDs/Blu-Ray they are still virtually indestructible under normal circumstances provided you have the competency of the average animal.

"What's even better is that load times are still practically non-existent."

"We already know that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Special Edition will be on the Nintendo Switch, and that game sits at 22.75 GBs of space, so that rumor about the 32 GB cartridges is all but confirmed."

"Cartridges are completely silent. I love playing on my friend's PlayStation 4 whenever I get the chance, but in the middle of the night I can't help but notice the whirring of the disk inside while we're playing."

"You know what sucks more than a damaged CD/DVD/Blu-Ray? A damaged disk drive. The only risk to the cartridge readers is oxidation -- and that takes a very long time!"

The more the day goes by, the more I'm feeling this.

The portability will be a HUGE factor.

Yea PS4 pro can do 4k shyt, but nintendo can let you play that same game on that plane ride out the country. That's a huge sell.
