    Success After A Lackluster Wii U

    It's hard to find the words to start this out, but if I'm going to talk about the Switch, I must first talk about how horrible it was to be one of the very few people, let alone adult, who actually purchased a Wii U and heres why..... The Wii U had some great games but thats about all it had, and is likely the reason it did not get supported by Nintendo the way it should have, because of this it was overlooked and passed on by players and basically doomed from the start, THE END. Now on to the Nintendo Switch, the reason I had to first discuss the Wii U was because of the negetive effect It left on me. As far as I was concerned I was done with all of Nintendo after the failed Wii U, all It cause me to do was waste valuable time and money and at this point i felt nintendo should be paying me to even want to try the Switch, as a matter of fact I even went as far as to convince anyone i knew not to get a switch, I told them the only reason they should want to get one is if the demand was high for it and even thats a iffy, of course they listen to me and didn't purchase it, but of course I did Lol, but in all seriousness, the switch changed how I view gaming from a certain point of view. Here you have a person who owns both a PlayStation Pro and Xbox One S, and I love them both, but I always thought wouldn't it be killer if I could play my P4 and XB anytime, anywhere.... in enters the Switch. A console you can take with you on the go and also hook up to play on the television, the concept is genius, and it's everything the Wii U should have been from the start, but I'm not complaining anymore, the Switch is what It needed to be. To be able to play some of your favorite console games on lunch break at the desk just gives the Switch a huge win, no hdmi, no ac outlet, no monitor, no problem just take it out power it in and play. I love how the IPS screen gives you great clarity even at a 720p resolution, in tablet mode the colors still pop and the game still runs at 60 Frames. On the television the game outputs at 1080p and everything pops even more. The console is one thing and the games are another, and with the games catalog increasing each month there's never been more of a reason to play Nintendo, definitely now more than ever. I'm even convinced once Nintendo brings Super Smash Bros to the switch that my Xbox and PS4 Pro just might need to go hibernate for a little while. This is a excellent product, but it isn't without faults, so while the design is great overall the right joy con analog is a bit out of place and during table top mode where you have to remove the controllers and hold them horizontal, the small form factor of the handhelds become apparent and will constantly cause discomfort if you have big hands, lucky I do not. One major flaw though, which is a big one, is that all saved data is exclusively tied to the console you play on, there is no online cloud saves, so if you lose your Nintendo Switch unit or it breaks or gets stolen, not only is your system gone, but all of your saved data and the hours you spent on each game is also gone, and gone FOREVER. Don't even get me started with the kickstand, its terrible and should have been placed in the middle of the console to distribute the weight better, if it's not on a flat surface just call it humpdy dumpdy (hope i spelled that correctly). Once you get pass some of those minor things the console starts to look more appealing. Overall I'm happy with this product, and as more first party games are released, I'm sure who ever manages to get one of these often sold out bad boys will be happy they did.

    Added the switch to a Xbox one and a PS4 and it's a great addition to have while watching a baseball game or in the car. Great to have something with all the Nintendo exclusives and more power than a DS. The controls are a little backwards compared to the Xbox and PS4 and the smaller joycons take some getting used to. Overall it's a great system for on the go or when sharing the tv.
