1) 3 hour battery life where the only charger is the docking station, so you can't even play it as you charge

2017-02-25 20:37:07 UTC  

But its a usb type c charger

2017-02-25 20:37:12 UTC  

I have a car charger

2017-02-25 20:37:19 UTC  

And a portable one

2017-02-25 20:37:59 UTC  

And much like the Wii U gamepad and 3DS chargers, it'll likely have a specific type of usb end that can't be bought elsewhere

2017-02-25 20:38:13 UTC  

How do you know?

2017-02-25 20:38:22 UTC  

Because Nintendo always does it

2017-02-25 20:38:25 UTC  

All they have said is that it uses a usb type c charger

Because Nintendo always does it

2017-02-25 20:38:50 UTC  

And I did say "likely"

2017-02-25 20:38:55 UTC  

not "definitely"

2017-02-25 20:39:55 UTC  

took me maybe 3 minutes to find this

They're speaking on an announcement basis, and both articles there were released on the same day, showing that it didn't prove anything yet

2017-02-25 20:43:13 UTC  

While it does show the possibility that it'll be a normal USB port, it's only because they're not including it in the box and require you to purchase it elsewhere and waste more money on a $400 zelda box

2017-02-25 20:43:59 UTC  

*$360. Yes, its close, yes, Im nitpicking, but still lol

2017-02-25 20:44:09 UTC  

$400

2017-02-25 20:44:18 UTC  

If you want a special edition yes

2017-02-25 20:44:27 UTC  

And another fucking thing

2017-02-25 20:44:29 UTC  

I dont plan on getting the pro controller day 1

2017-02-25 20:44:39 UTC  

They're fucking online service deal is fucking bullshit

2017-02-25 20:44:46 UTC  

I agree

2017-02-25 20:45:13 UTC  

We shouldnt have to pay for online that has been consistently terrible in the past

2017-02-25 20:45:16 UTC  

There's quite literally nothing beneficial about buying the Switch until at least Christmas when there will be a price drop or sale

2017-02-25 20:45:20 UTC  

No

2017-02-25 20:45:23 UTC  

That's not the problem

2017-02-25 20:45:24 UTC  

I agree

2017-02-25 20:45:27 UTC  

but that's not it

2017-02-25 20:45:38 UTC  

The game rental thing?

2017-02-25 20:45:41 UTC  

Yes

2017-02-25 20:45:43 UTC  

Ah

2017-02-25 20:45:53 UTC  

Sony and Microsoft let you keep the games

2017-02-25 20:46:05 UTC  

Nintendo lets you keep it for a month

2017-02-25 20:46:11 UTC  

Thats it

2017-02-25 20:46:15 UTC  

Yeah

2017-02-25 20:46:21 UTC  

It's bullshit to the fucking extreme

2017-02-25 20:46:26 UTC  

And there's literally no excuse

2017-02-25 20:46:51 UTC  

I think Jim Sterling said this first, but what they should do is let you keep them and give you 3 games per month

2017-02-25 20:46:58 UTC  

Especially when those games are, as of the moment, NES and SNES games, which can be emulated perfectly in much better quality elsewhere

2017-02-25 20:47:05 UTC  

Because that would barely be scraping the virtual console library

2017-02-25 20:47:14 UTC  

>barely

2017-02-25 20:47:23 UTC  

Not even
