So... I've gotten Youtube notifications about reaction videos from at least Super Best Friends, Cinemassacre, and Angry Joe (EDIT) and Pat the NES Punk (/EDIT) so far, but I haven't watched it (or any of those) myself yet.

I dunno... I'll just embed the tweets I made about this yesterday or whenever, because I'm too apathetic to even honestly rehash it here.



I'll transcribe what I wrote in my pencil-and-paper journal yesterday, as well.

"A bunch of people I follow on Twitter were talking about the Nintendo Switch yesterday. Apparently, Nintendo had some kind of presentation about it, and they were reacting to that. I don't know... I just can't bring myself to care about it too much. The new Legend of Zelda game looks interesting, I guess. I didn't (and probably won't) watch the presentation, though, so that's still all I know is coming out for the new console. Meh."

I seriously don't know. I haven't even cared enough to watch shit about the Nintendo Switch, yet. Maybe if I ever get around to doing so, maybe I'll change my tune on it. I'd like to care, but... meh. I really haven't cared about any of the new consoles all that much lately. The only one that's even kind of interested me is the PS4, what with Final Fantasy XV and The Last Guardian and the upcoming Persona 5 (which I know next to nothing about, except that it's Persona 5) and all, but even then... fuckin' meh. It's not that I'm out of gaming altogether, because I still buy a ton of (dirt cheap) shit on Steam and GOG and such, but for the foreseeable future, I guess I am out of console gaming altogether.

I've been meh-ish mostly with the Switch thus far. I was considering the Wii U several times but I always ended up passing on it despite having several games I wouldn't have minded playing.

But if I think about it, if I had to choose between a Wii U or a Switch right -now-, I'd probably go with the Switch.

Partly because it isn't about to be retired completely in a couple months. (Can't even find a Wii U in stores anymore since Nintendo stopped production months ago - and they all sold like hotcakes as soon as that was announced...)

Also partly because I've always been wary about the big ass tablet controller idea - where Nintendo wasn't selling standalone replacement tablet controllers. If the controller broke, especially nowadays that the Wii U is being phased out, your entire console is fucked.

And yeah, while everything being said about the Switch at vgcats (Comic 370) is likely very spot on, in my own personal use of it the switch may never leave the main docking station anyway.
