To be honest, this gamer is totally gob smacked on the attitude that people have when it comes to new console releases.
Sure it was time for a change. But is it worth the hassle and aggravation?
I’m not the one to jump on the NCHW (New Console Hype Wagon), just for the sake of popularity. I pay attention to the ebb and flow of popularity.
I learned this lesson all to well when the SEGA Saturn was released in 1994. Like everyone else in the console video game space at the time, I jumped on the hype and pre-relase popularity.
But in the end, after it was all said and done, it was a total flop. The lesson that I learned is plain and simple.
Slow down and relax. Let others make the mistake. Let them make the mistake you’ve made.
But this time around, the hype was justified. The Switch 2 is one of those consoles that lives up to the hype. Where the games go from here is up to NINTENDO and the publishers. But take it easy, Let the hype train enter the station and then buy the system. I’m telling you, it’s worth the wait.
My problem is doni have time for new games, we have a switch for my daughter and we barely play it. I like Nintendo games but I have a hard enough time completing any game. I think there’s one or two games in my entire Xbox collection I’ve actually completed.
My problem is only having maybe an hour or two late evening I’ll play something for a week, try something else because I get tired of playing the same thing then forget what I was doing in the other game and want to start over.
If I was going to get a handheld I think I’d much prefer the new Asus rog that Xbox worked on
The new Asus Xbox would be really cool if they got quick resume working. That would then be a really decent Game pass + windows handheld machine. I can’t see myself moving away from my steam deck OLED for a while, quickly resume is the killer feature.
