| Why does Nintendo never attempt to make a console similar spec wise to current gen consoles? It's always as if they HAVE to be one generation behind or something. Is it some sort of gimmick? It's true that the graphics don't make the game good or bad, but the modern generation of gamers care about graphics more than ever nowadays, even me. The Switch will be slightly weaker than the Xbox One, which is absurd since the Xbox One has been released nearly 4 years ago! |

| That's not it though. I'm wondering why the specs are always one gen behind. |

remember that the switch's main marketing point isn't to be a monster of a system, it's to be a portable system that can also reach good spec levels when it's docked.
if you want specs, just buy a pc. better games than the xbox or the ps4, better hardware, etc |

The Switch shouldn't look worse than the Vita when playing handheld mode, which it does |

just because a console has low (not bad) specs it doesn't make it a bad console, like the Nintendo Wii
so the Nintendo Switch should be an extreme hit with its even better specs since its sort of a portable Wii

Graphics simply don't matter. Gameplay does.

people buy nintendo consoles because they have really good exclusives. whether or not you can play CoD at 60 fps doesn't make or break a console. |

it doesn't, the Switch is a 720p six inch screen and the Vita is a five inch 960 x 544 screen
how is that worse |

Ugh. The only thing I think Nintendo REALLY has going for it with the Switch launch is Breath of the Wild. It has the highest ranking since GTA 4 on Metacritic, and from a completely neutral standpoint, that's impressive. It has a 98/100. Everything else about the Switch screams lackluster. From the storage space, (One of the launching titles can't actually FIT on the Switch) to the graphics, to the 1-2-Switch, to pretty much everything else. Yes, graphics don't trump gameplay. But when you can't play the game because it doesn't FIT on the CONSOLE, you're honestly just asking for non-Nintendo fanatics to laugh at you. And while you laugh about FPSs, Nintendo hasn't done anything really innovative for decades. The consoles are more innovative than the games. Halo: Combat Evolved was more innovative than pretty much all of Nintendo's games from 2005 to now, combined. While a Nintendo game may look better than a previous incarnation of a Nintendo game, MOST OF THE TIME they won't look better than another game on another console. Same with gameplay, soundtracks, etc.

But I'm a Nintendo fan lol. But I don't pay exclusive attention to the pros of Nintendo and simply ignore their flaws like you.

Let me lay this out for you in clear terms. Horizon: Zero Dawn looks better and plays pretty equally to BotW. Its character is new, yet still deep, as opposed to rehashed. In all likelihood, Horizon: Zero Dawn's universe is bigger and has more content than BotW.
Not saying BotW isn't a good game. By the reviews, it looks to be a pretty good game! But from the position of an Xbox lover, something made by Xbox's chief rival is better than BotW in all likelihood.
Just wait Sony, Crackdown 3 is coming. |

you can't compare games because of how big the universe is. that's an invalid point.

I'm not. I didn't bring No Man's Sky into this. I merely pointed to a recent release and said that what it brought to the table was likely superior in every way to Breath of the Wild, including the explorable size of the map. |

your points are good. But seeing it as it is, BoTW looks amazing in every way, and there are a lot new additions to it. While we're at Horizon Zero Dawn i think it's far too comparable with far cry and looks similar.
