Lovin' it. My favourite is how many popular gaming YouTubers fucked up the controller straps.

It's a FEATURE.

Real glad I don't care about Zelda, I'm totally going to wait for the Switch's library to grow and hopefully by the time things like Xenoblade 2 are out, they'll have ironed out some of these issues.

These are normal and should not be considered a defect.

Holy shit, they literally say that this is a feature.

No, they're saying that it's normal. As in, bad, unfortunate, but still normal. Like aging. Aging isn't a defect. It's just something that happens.

I respect Nintendo for the games they make.....but fuck this is a disaster

I'm not saying it makes sense; I'm saying don't put words in their mouth. That's how misinformation get spread.

Nintendo's response was stupid, but it wasn't that stupid. They never claimed it was a "feature."

Not a feature but to deny that new systems that have it are not defective but 'it just happens' is pretty absurd....

I feel like the whole thing was just unnecessary and just opened themselves to critisism, especially the way the internet is these days.

Also did you do a me and use a citation instead of writing it 'feature'?

well yeah, that's how you're supposed to type it

i'm directly quoting nintendo's use of the word "feature"

quotation marks are for quoting; apostrophes are for something completely different

they're also called quotations, not citations

If I buy a brand new monitor and it has dead pixels on it, then I send it back immediately. I don't see how a Nintendo Switch should be any different.

Small numbers of stuck or dead pixels are a characteristic of LCD screens. These are normal and should not be considered a defect.

gats · March 07, 2017, 05:26:51 AM

God damn, glad I didn't buy one. I bought a Microsoft Surface not too long ago and it had 1 dead pixel but I got the outlet to send me another one I cannot deal with dead pixels

Nah, I don't think its that bad. Maybe not a perfect launch, but give it a chance.

Spartan · March 07, 2017, 08:30:04 AM

Nintendo Switch more like Switch 360 degrees and walk away

Super Irish · March 07, 2017, 07:51:28 PM

Lovin' it. My favourite is how many popular gaming YouTubers fucked up the controller straps.

The sounds those poor machine spirits are making, omnissiah save them.
