Switch takes the idea of a flexible
home console - handheld hybrid to pretty much its logical conclusion: you can play it on a television, or you can take the screen out of its dock, attach a controller - or Joy - Con - to either side and
enjoy it
as a handheld.
The fact is, both Sony & MS's new
consoles are about equal in all facets in reality, both have a similar amount of great exclusives, even to the point of being in similar genres... And regardless of propaganda, media beatups (such
as in Driveclubs & Halo's cases)... regardless of the OBVIOUS MAINLY U.S. based media favoritism of there own
home grown
console manufacturing giant, both machines are great, & so similar in all areas, that choosing between the 2, comes down to all these little bullshite bits & bops, such
as marketing, corporate naming & such...
as well
as the more game related things, such
as gaming preferences, controllers comfort, online infrastructure, etc, etc.... But, the point is, WHO REALLY CARES??? Who worries about this shite, over actually playing &
enjoying such brilliant games?
A thing that does make me a bit hopeful is that maybe the Switch will be
home of the more mid-tier budget games I usually
enjoy like what we saw on 3DS,
as I doubt they'll raise the budget to bring them to other
consoles.
I remember playing the game and
enjoying the weapons based gameplay over and over again on the Dreamcast with friends
as I was awed by the visuals and playability on Sega's last
home console.
