    I'm not sure you need to love Zelda, it's been rated as one of the best games ever made so probably of interest to more than just dedicated Zelda fans. Also, just to clear up: games are tied to accounts, friend codes are optional, & although there's no official browser yet it is likely to come shortly.

    If you don't love Zelda then you don't love gaming.
    We all know these things are over priced, yes you could wait till Xmas and get it cheaper, just like any console quickly drills in price nowadays, I for one am happy to pay a few quid over the top four the excitement of being one of the first to play what could be the greatest game ever made.

    ​All products are expensive when they first came out. I would class the switch as more of a niche console but it is still £100 less than PS4 on release.

    Impatiently waiting on my Amazon order arriving. Seriously can't wait to play Zelda.

    Surprised anyone can consider PSVR as a "pro" gaming platform. I found it very gimmicky. Had it on loan from a mate for a month with heaps of games and after the initial wow factor (which is huge by the way) I just couldn't bring myself to sit and play games looking like an even bigger tool than usual wearing that monstrosity. I want games for playing with friends and no, I don't mean online and I certainly don't mean with a great big helmet on.

    Anyway, why bring any of that up here in any case?! Switch will find it's market and will do well - no need to bog down every bloody deal thread on it.

    I don't remember the PS4 and Xbox One launch titles being any better. Most were ports of 360 and PS3 games.

    Still a worthy post though OP, so thanks.

    It may help some find stock more easily in their area and also make them aware there's no need to pay a premium to the scalpers.

    That would be a far more interesting chart if it took the UK price and the exchange rate at the time of release into account.

    I got this delivered from amazon prime this morning. Original Nintendo conference I was put off by this console. Underpowered, few games, mostly old wii u games etc. Then I've seen a lot of YouTube videos which have sold the console more.
    Today I received the console, pro controller, Zelda, bomberman R and a travel case.
    So far I am very impressed, feels far more premium then the wii u. Enjoyable playing it different ways and the screen is sharp and easily has the best graphics of any handheld device. Pro controller is worth it (although I did use a voucher code) but playing on the tv, it's much more comfortable and you can play games better.
    Bomberman is good fun, although there isn't much depth. Paid £38 and personally I would have waited until £20-25 tops.
    Zelda....... amazing! Graphics, story, gameplay, whole package. A lot better then I thought it would be. About three hours in so far and I can see why it's getting a 10/10 review. Yes you can get it on the wii u, but I prefer playing it differently. Tv and mobile.
    Yes it's cost me a lot of money, but I am happy with it. Zelda will last a while but we do need to see a lot more games.

    Give it a month and you'll get one for about £99.Woukdnt Waste money on it such a terrible idea.
  30. deleted1065002's avatar
    The system sucks...

    The left controller keeps disconnecting, the screen is plastic, Zelda performs better on the Wii U vs docked mode and they look the same but 180p of resolution, there are no good exclusives for it and **** the online is dodgy right now.

    I bought one today because I could, but it's crap, I mean the joy con will freak out if I put it near anything... wtf? How did this get through testing? Oh yeah and there is no headphone jack anywhere but the system, so you cannot use headphones, not even wireless ones.

    Probably the worst console ever, I'm sending mine back already.

    Ah ok, so none of this is their fault then..

    How dare you have another wireless device switched one when using the switch!

    Yeah but I can't pay nearly £300 to play just that.



    You do realise the device allows you to play future games as well right? You aren't paying £280 just to play one or two games, I don't understand the logic of saying it's £300 to play one game. That would only be true if you never intended to buy any future games.

    Struggling to see your point, Xbox One was £420 on release. Of course you can get a 3/4 year old console for less
