Failed consoles & handhelds thread

One thing I'm not sure anyone has really paid attention to, is that the Switch has a vent for expelling heat at the top of the console.

Smartphones nowadays have some pretty decent GPUs in them, but because smartphones are designed to be as thin as possible, they can't get rid of heat, and can't just run the GPU at 100% all the time.

Even just for that alone, you're going to be getting something that performs better than most phones/tablets you can purchase right now with Switch.

The Switch is already looking to sell more than the WiiU did, given a better launch lineup; but bullshit like paid online will likely leave many displeased with their purchase.
And WiiU owners, who theoretically should be Nintendo's most loyal fans, are already pissed.

Nintendo's probably going to die, but not anytime soon.
It will be a long, slow, and painful death.

Just like SEGA :^)

A few of the ibuypower were fine for the price, still didn't beat building your own thing .but for someone who didn't want to fuck around with planning a mini ITX build or didn't want to fuck around with building at all it was at-least balanced and not retardedly priced.

Companies like Nintendo dont die. They get bought out or downsized. But you wouldn't know that you fucking reddit kike.

It's a bargaining chip, so Valve can try and hint that they don't need Microsoft. Either it didn't work out so well, or the one Valve employee who gave a shit wheeled his way into the DOTA2 team.

So it has 2 games at launch and will sell 100 units? That is a very low bar to aim for user.

What was the appeal of this ever since the year it was announced I was confused why not get an android device? If it all it does is play android games

Why the fuck did Valve not make some games for the SteamOS? Half-Life 3? Hello? Too busy making skins for CS:GO and dicking around with DotA2 to do any real work, eh?

Jewben is worth 1.5b. Nintendo is worth nearly 40b.


Because consoles are cancer. Valve may not be the based bros they once were, but they still have basic human decency.
