Something happens to that unit and you start over. No cloud saves, no saving to sd card, NADA.

Nail in coffin.
Wow, that's incredibly dumb.

I mean, I really don't want to buy another console until Odyssey and Zelda were just about enough to convince me, but this sort of stupidity might be enough for me to reconsider.

I'm not totally up on the Nintendo world (and I'm too cheap to buy a console just for one or two specific games), but can't you play Zelda on the Wii U?

They also locked down the save states on the Nintendo Mini, not even hachi2 program can extract them. Something went wrong with my Famicom Mini and I had to reset it, now I've lost all my save states ugh!

Yeah but I really want both :/

If Nintendo insists on being dumb though I might just settle for a cheap used Wii U and only play Zelda

I've had no problems with mine so far. Cloud saves would be nice, but I'm sure that'll happen sooner or later.

Underpowered? Yes. It's fine. You can run Tetris on a refrigerator, but that doesn't mean it's a shitty game.

Oh, believe me, I am in no way saying the Switch is bad. I've played almost every Nintendo console (sans the Wii U and the Virtual Boy).

I actually do not care that the Switch is underpowered. I've believed in "graphics do not make a good game" and to an extent, I still do. The whole reason for me getting a Switch are for the Nintendo exclusives (which as of right now are sparse, but hopefully will grow as time goes on). I could not care for a AAA title on the Switch, because I already have my PC for those (and ironically, from a PC gamer's perspective, they would view the PS4 and XB1 as underpowered).

As far as issues go, it's just another little reason for me to hold off on getting one, but at the same time, people who have had issues with theirs will always be more vocal about it than people who don't. I just found it funny because a lot of what people are complaining about the Switch is similar to what people complain about the FR-S and BRZ.

Anyway, I like the Switch far more than I do the Wii U, but it will walk a similar path as its predecessor did if Nintendo doesn't get games (both first and third-party) for this thing.

Necromancing this thread, as my OC there is a Necromancer

Had mine since April of '17, still going strong and recently downloaded a bunch of games to it (Wolfenstein, FF7/9, Shakedown Hawaii, Bloodstained, Celeste)

Love it, play it the most of all my systems next to my PC, just gotta figure out how to Homebrew it and download a few fangames and rom hacks

Wanting to buy one, so I can play Fire Emblem Three Houses... but not willing to fork over $300 for it, so debating to wait til Sept for new cheaper Switch to come out.
