    So far I think it's unsaid but seems to be a no. Will have to wait and see.

    I think if it were to be able to play Wii U games it would have to be only when the game system is docked to play on an actual TV.

    It'd be a problem then since the tablet portable half of the system needs to be docked in while the WiiU games required a tablet monster for a controller. Unless they release something to change that like a wii u accessory.

    Not backwards compatible only supports cartridges as far as I know.

    Right. Totally forgot about that. Probably since every game I've played on a Wii U could use a pro controller instead of the tablet controller.

    I also forgot about the cartridge thing Angel mentioned. Two counts for no backward compatibility. I see them porting things eventually though.

    Welp it's launched. Let's see how many bugs appear and how long before that inner nintenchild of mine tries to draw me too it after fixes are applied.

    I'll probably get one down the road. Maybe if I get a large sum in tax returns I'll pick one up.

    I don't know. All depends on other things with money.

    For me money will play a part but I'm gonna wait to see how successful it goes. The Zelda and new Mario look promising but thats only two games. The wii and wiiu made me cautious of them so yeah.

    I hear mixed reviews thus far. I'll probably still end up getting one in the future because of Zelda though.

    So it's been mixed? If there's anything that'd get me to buy one it'd be that Zelda game. It looks to gorgeous. ;-;

    That's pretty much the same reason I would get a Switch. Basically just to play the new LoZ, mainly because I haven't seen much else out for the Switch that catches my attention. Ergo waiting a few months to assess what titles come out for it will also play into it.

    Hence why I'm probably gonna drop the bucks for a PS4 before the Switch; more games, particularly games that I'm interested in playing.

    I'm thinking of waiting more than a year. Zelda looks amazing but the Wii & WiiU lost my trust so I'm gonna wait to see if they get more than the Zelda or that shiny new Mario.

    I saved up for a PS4, had one a long while, you'll like it. I just started Gravity Rush 2 for it....only for spring break too end. ;-;

    I have faith that the Switch will get some good titles over the next few months. Maybe I'll hold off and get it as a birthday gift to myself in three months.

    @Taboo Sho has a Switch. He could tell us all about it.

    That I do. I also beat Breath of the Wild already :eek:

    Why rush? I got it when it came out as well and I've been taking my sweet time. Probably got 50+ hours clocked in and I've only completed 2 dungeons.

    Anyways, like I said, I picked up the Switch on opening day along with the new Zelda. I haven't had any issues with the console itself yet, and the game is absolutely amazing. I can understand not wanting to get it while Zelda is the only really worthwhile game on it. That being said, getting it for only Zelda right now isn't necessarily a bad idea. There is plenty to do (120 shrines and 900 Korok seeds), though there are people who find it to be quite repetitive.

    I didn't rush, it's just when I started doing the dungeon puzzles I got really behind them, so I sought them out to open the map and stuff and just completed them along the way. I've completed like 30 shrines I think by now

    I'll definitely be waiting for a Switch. Maybe when a better model comes out. I'll buy.
