- Reception of the Nintendo Switch Presentation has been mixed, and many questions still need answering... But I believe that something in Nintendo has changed for the better.

Why the hell do people WANT this thing to fail. I'm not even going to say if I'm impressed, or disappointed, or anything, all I'm going to say is, I want this to succeed. I want gaming to become what it was when I was younger. Fun. Not shouting at people for liking a brick with some tech bits inside it more than another brick with tech bits inside it. Or whining because a lump of pixels and polygons doesn't move a frame faster as another lump of pixels and polygons. Why can't people just look at something and say, "If this does well, people will be happy, and gaming as a whole will benefit,"
This tangent kinda verged off the Switch and onto gaming as a whole, and no one's gonna read it cause of the avalanche of other comments, but all I'm saying is, let's just stop being so negative. Even if it looks bad, don't insult those who support it, and even if it looks good, don't hate those who disagree.
No one's going to read this. Who cares.
EDIT: Well gee, I guess this comment did get noticed.
Thanks.
JoftheTman Very good point. Video games are just made for our entertainment, and it's a shame that some people take it too far.
Some people are pessimists, some people just like to bitch and some people are worried.
The other ones are the sad sacks that either can't afford another console or ain't willing to, thus they are constantly burning with envy towards anything that can't be found on their platform of choice.
That's a pretty big reason, a lot of people are, simply put...jelly and thus spew the same knee jerk reaction, that's insulting and diminishing anything.
The same thing happens to Play station, Xbox and Pc, the good news is those people have absolutely no sway over how a platform does.
I think a lot of those people are salty PS4 6-year olds who sit in their cave all night playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 500
Exactly.
I also don't understand why they want it to fail. It's a very good concept for a console.
The only reason The Switch has so much doubt is cuz of the WiiU. Which is kind of unfair, cuz it's not like Sony/Microsoft haven't had garbage systems in the past.
Well "garbage" is subjective, but neither sony or Microsoft have had a console less successful than wiiu.
Vita
A Mrbkainx I'm just saying. One slip up and everyone is saying how Nintendo will go bankrupt.
Microsoft has had 3 consoles so far...none of which i would consider "garbage" and aside from the vita id say the same from sony.
The Vita is a good system, there really isn't much wrong with it besides the needless extras taped on because of mix-direction. The Vita actually shares a lot of similarities with the Switch.
So, what you're saying is... they've _switched_ their mindset?
Nice joke, but yeah. They must of *switched* their brains with a Nintendo-Approved brain.
TheGamerAdmin Now I really hope the next Paper Mario game will be as good ad Mario Odyssey.
TheGamerAdmin *must have
I just saw a Super Bomberman X commercial while watching this lol.
Mr. Mister 😏👍🏿
It's a fun thing to rewatch these nearly 2 years later: "Obviously we won't have the uber strong launch I was hoping for"
Ahh Arlo...
Or four. It's funny, being unsure about the touchscreen and the gyro - they haven't dominated the control scheme, but they not only make all those Wii and Wii U ports possible, little things like Gyro aiming, or touch in Mario Maker (or the way you can use touchscreen to imitate gyro handheld, or vice versa) turns out to have been the right choice.
also funny to hear him say "we'll be able to use any old cable on the switch!" oh, honey. oh, no.
fr then a recent video is estimating the sales nearing the DS
@@ilexdiapason You can tho, you only can't with the dock.
And now it's nearing the PS2 in sales.
Arms can be played without the motion control.
Halcyonacoustic There was reports of it feeling good and like the game mechanics match the players and one dude said the HD rumble made it feel as if his arms were actually stretching like springs but in a good weird way lol
Snoot Snat yeah I heard all that, I'm just saying, because arlo doesn't seem to know
Arms is a game we could have gotten a decade ago in the Wii.
Halcyonacoustic From what people say, the motion controls are on point.
We did. It's called Punch-Out.
What's with the hate bandwagon in the comments? People are literally lying about the specs to make it sound bad. Can you not just be happy that nintendo is finally doing something right?
Of course they can't. This is the internet. People literally laugh at you if you mention you prefer a Nintendo console over a PS4.
They're Playstation fans, and they are completely triggered by the fact that their platform of choice is about to become out of style once everyone gets rid of their Playstation. It's time to SWITCH.
John Redcorn why are they playstation fans specifically?
Milbox R
are you implying the xbone has fans?
come on we all know pc is waaaay better than ps4
I know that one very big source of disappointment is the announcement of the "rental" feature of the new online service, but I'm choosing not to comment on that until we know more. I've got to know everything we're getting and how much the service will be before I can make a decision.
Arlo Bomberman R!!!
Arlo 😀
i'd like to see you make some commentary on jim sterling's video of "nintendo moves" such as;
-$70 pro controller
-$80 joycons
-very, very vague about details
-the very poor launch lineup even considering how most launch lineups tend to be poor, this is especially so.
-the "rental" issue
-the virtual console being a dripfeed in general
-voice chat is done from an app on your phone
etc
Arlo i think nintendo is trying to go for the adults now and the kids at the same time👌🏽
Sandy Wich+ Kids don't complain about prices as they aren't the ones paying for it. Adults complain about prices because they actually work for their money and have to spend it on many things like bills. So yes 10 dollars extra can make a difference for some in the bigger picture.
I don't think people understand/appreciate just how amazing Arlo is at writing. This is some really good stuff.
The Arlo Fan Community good job!
don't you think you might be slightly biased?
Mateja I mean, they’re fans for a reason, right?
Didn’t Arlo say that he makes videos unscripted?
The best part of the Switch was the awkward translator guy for Suda51.
"So you know Japanese right?"
"Yeah I know a good amount"
"Cool, we want you to translate for this Indie dev at the switch presentation."
"Oh ummmmmmmmmm sure..."
suda actually went off script and he had to translate on hand. Hence why he had to wait till the end of sentences to translate as the general placement of everything is different for japanese and english.
He didn't get breaks to translate. So first of all, it's really hard to even know what's important to translate. And while translating, you don't hear what the japanese guy is saying, so you miss out on that too.
Bertram Hilhorst My reasoning is a lot more sound as all the other translators did just fine. Also they were all free hand translating as they heard it then why would all the other ones do it easily.?
all translators have a translated copy of the script of each person they are translating, that way it will feel natural like if they were translating perfectly.
however, Like xyzqsrbo said, Suda went off script and the translator had to improvise and translate. it could've cost him his job thanks to Suda as well.
WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO REALLY LIKES ARMS?
Munkeeman Arms looks awesome xD
Munkeeman I'm so hyped for Arms. I think it looks like it's going to be incredibly fun. Hopefully it'll be as good as it looks to me.
Munkeeman I think ARMS is great, but I just Not interested to play it, BotW however.....
Response bait. Guess it got me too
Munkeeman It's like a mix of Splatoon, Punch-Out, and Miraculous Ladybug. I'm probably going to buy it launch day.
the bowser parental control section was really cute.
***** that was confusing
The Red Knight that was really adorable uwu
It was adorable seeing Bowser as a dad.
Kind of sad that a muppet is acting more mature than most UA-camrs talking about Nintendo.
Why are you sleeping on ARMS? Why is EVERYONE sleeping on arms? Because its motion controlled and people dont like moving their fat little arms? Well, good news to you, its NOT EXCLUSIVE to motion controls, you can play it without them. This game looks crazy hype, yet people are just so scared of something new. Every switch game announced looked incredible.
bioninja3000 What I'm hoping is that the game has a lot of content on it which will most likely be the case but for now we've only seen 5 characters
Banano Jugueton, I'm guessing that they only showed 5 characters because it's just a demo to show it off. They don't wanna give everything away.
bioninja3000
I think the problem was Nintendo's lack of focus on it. At the presentation it looked like a cute little demo, something you'd play for an hour and never touch again. It looked interesting to me, so I looked into it and there's definitely way more depth than it seems. The ability not to use motion controls, customisation, multiple fighters etc.
It feels like a really nice spin on the classic Punch Out style with more content and depth and action, and honestly I'm actually excited for it.
I totally agree. 1 2 Switch is NOT the best demonstration of the updated controller. ARMS should've had much more focus not just because it's a real game as opposed to a collection of minigames, but because it can demonstrate both the JoyCon's motion AND regular controls.
Honestly, if you don't play it with the motion controls it seems like a poorer fighting game. I am not super hyped for the motion controls either, but I have good expectations for the system as a whole. I think they will in the long run get a big chunk of the handhelds with it, essentially making the market for consoles and handhelds a single thing.
Funny how no one talks about how powerful is the switch.
Big Meme everyone is bagging on how it's not powerful
How powerful is it? considering that it's got the same storage space as the Wii U and this system seems rushed, I'm expecting the bare minimum.
It's just as strong as the regular Xbox One 1080p/60 on dock. Its 720p/60 and 30 on tablet mode
I don't get that whole power thing. People have become obsessed with how a game was made not the game itself these days. All of my favorite games look like shit did not age well and had no power behind them. I honestly do not understand the hangup.
According to VG24/7 Breath of the Wild runs, when docked, at 900p and a "rock-solid" 30fps. Now what that means? I have no idea. It depends on your opinion about this stuff.
Good news is, most of the “gimmicks” here weren’t use as gimmicks, but rather features in some games that helped there (motion controls in Splatoon 2, touch controls in Mario maker 2)
9:54 Well, that didn't aged well.
Nintendo did exactly what we didn't expect, again
they are supposed to do that
Trovão really ? it didnt surprise me
Motion controls, gimmicky system, Mario.....what were you not expecting?
Because that's pretty much exactly what I was expecting.
I just hope the Zelda game is good.
What people expect : console as inferior PC like xboxone and PS4. Yeah, right.
I was expecting more things situated around the motion controls. that fact that they spent the majority of the presentation talking about the games, not endlessly explaining the unnecessary motion control functionality for 15 minutes per game. hell, only one of the launch titles requires motion controls? they aren't quite there yet, far from it, with the overpriced accessories, and the slight overpricing of the console itself, but it just might be the step in the right direction Nintendo so dearly needs.
I just hope this means we'll finally get a new Metroid game. Those games, especially the Prime trilogy, are the DEFINITION of epic adventure and exploration...
+Dogman_35 Yeah, that's really the last thing missing from this big, open world adventure lineup, a Metroid game that returns to the series' exploration based roots. Hopefully there's an announcement on the horizon, if they actually listened to us after the shitshow that was Federation Force they should have a new game ready to announce by next year.
Dogman_35 Nah, we're getting something similar to Federation Force.
Nah, nobody will buy Metroid.
+J Schroeder People keep saying this, but would any smart company willingly make a game they already KNOW will sell like total shit...? They're probably going to try something new again, honestly, and it's probably going to end up shit... But maybe we're lucky, and whatever they try ends up actually being fun.
I`m hoping for a bit of an alternate Metroid really.
Metroid Prime was great but Echoes and 3 were pretty damn meh in my opinion, hell, despite the hate i really loved Other M`s gameplay.
I`m just hoping to see metroid back but with a bit of both of those (meaning unique gameplay and action heavy but large and exploration focused too).
Can we please stop throwing a hissy fit about the online service until we know how much it's gonna cost?
You're all gonna look like fuckin' fools if it's revealed to be something like 20 USD a year.
And I'm gonna look like a fuckin' fool if it's revealed to be 50-60 USD.
Point is, cool your jets, give the waaaaahmbulance a rest, because we don't have a crystal ball.
THANK YOU GOOD CITIZEN.
that sounds like something on erb
you are an actually competent person, thank you so much.
Even if it cost $20 a year, that would be $20 too much.
Realistically, it's probably going to be in the ballpark of the other two, at like 10 bucks a month. But that isn't particularly unreasonable.
If they actually are absolute madmen and undercut the others without screwing themselves, well, holy shit.
People seem to be more focused on shitting on it than seeing what it has. Your getting Zelda, Splatoon 2, Arms and Mario Odyyssey in the first year. What did PS4 have? KNACK!?
Shawksta K Arms looks meh, and also MK8 deluxe will be good for people who don't have the original
Call of Duty.
Don't forget Xenoblade 2.
B05 Gaming lots of things look meh
What about my $550 4K Minecraft machine
"Very few first party games this year":
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
1-2 Switch
Snipperclips
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Arms
Splatoon 2
Super Mario Odyssey
Xenoblade 2
Fire Emblem Warriors
... And that's just what we know right now in January! So sick of people saying this is a poor launch window! This is one of Nintendos best launch windows.
Xenoblade is made by Monolith, and Fire Emblem Warriors is made by Koei Tecmo. They're not 1st party titles.That leaves only 7, 2 of which are ports: Mario Kart and, while not released yet, Zelda - as it was developed for the WiiU.
Even with those facts, this launch is still better than most Nintendo launches. And while it's not saying much, it's leagues better than Wii U launch.
Not to mention, it looks like they are slowly releasing information throughout the year. At e3 we have to see new games coming fall 2017 to summer 2018. And if we don't, then we can start to worry. But it's way too early to say this is a poor launch window lineup.
I'm 90% sure it's gonna have animal crossing, as an Real animal crossing game hasn't been made for about 4 years.
Probably gonna have a new Mario kart too and probably will have smash.
Alex Bianchi there is also a new bomber man game that no one seems to care about!
It's nice to see some positive feedback. Everyone seems like they are on the hate Nintendo band wagon. It gets old, especially when a lot of these people consider themselves journalists yet, they let their bias hate for Nintendo get in the way. Don't get me wrong, i can't stand fanboys, but the ridiculous amount of hate for Nintendo was old 10 years ago.
EQOAnostalgia I don't think it's personal bias against Nintendo. I think it's just cool to not like Nintendo at the moment, so gaming journalists (who are, but for a very small group of them, completely lacking in journalistic integrity) play that up in their articles.
EQOAnostalgia journalism is a joke nowadays anyways
Blackb0nd is one of those people sometimes. He made, I quote, 5 nintendo hate videos in a row. 5! With no others in the mix
Or .. you know .. people just don't like the direction Nintendo is going with this console? Criticism does not mean hate, but I can understand why fanboys would be bent out of shape over it. They desperately want the Switch to succeed, especially after what happened to the Wii U. With the direction Nintendo is taking with the new console however; people are really questioning the companies choices more than ever.
EQOAnostalgia well i grew up with nintendo and in mt house there has always been a nintendo console but i kind of lost my faith in them with the wii u and i would love that nintendo finally got games like assasin's creed call of duty and all games everyone has not just once like the wii u .i think this is their key for succes imagine playing all classic nintendo games and all modern games in one console that it is both portable and stable!amazing
I've never clicked so fast. I've been waiting for your blutiful honest perspective.
woogly arms boxing
10/10
I don't get how $300 is asking too much for a brand new console.
When its underpowered, will CONTINUE to not get third party support and its accessories cost an arm and a leg, it's not worth $300.
ayy But wasn't the 3ds $300 for the fist year or two?
+ayy ok, i am tired of people saying there are going to be no 3rd party support.. when they LITERALLY confirmed there will be. find something else to hate nintendo for.
the wii u deluxe cost 350, and i think 3ds cost 300 once they launched. then outside of nintendo, there is the xbox one which cost $500 at launch
Pedro Sávio PS4 didn't come with games and it costed more than the switch on release
aeonic bismuth thats not the point. Why didnt they get the mario game ready to bundle with the 300$ pack? I would be glad to say nintendo is doing it right.
the Switch console itself had me excited, it's Nintendo that has ruined or for me. their pricing on accessories, using a phone app for voice chat, renting 30 year old games... Nintendo, get out of your own way!
Jon Jacob Jinglehimer
I don't understand what everyone's problem with the voice chat is, everyone has smartphones these days it's better to use one instead of buying a headset that is overpriced considering what it does
Banano Jugueton
but if I already have a phone... why would I use their app to talk to people? and there's a reason people still use those headsets
Jon Jacob Jinglehimer
If what I think is right then you can probably manage your account and friend list and whatever with the app see in my case non of my friends are Nintendo fans and the only friends I'll have to play online with are total strangers that may or not accept my friend request. Would you give your phone number to a complete stranger that added you randomly online?
Banano Jugueton no, there's discord. but the voice chat I can get over. I just want nintendo to prove everyone wrong, fix all these annoying quirks, and give the switch the best chance it can get.
Jon Jacob Jinglehimer
While I agree the gimicky motion controls and shit is annoying. it's not something they're shoving in your face there's only a few games that uses them and supposedly Arms can be played with regular controls
This is the best Switch pre-review I've seen, very objective and good information. Well done Cookie Monster
Let's hope the Switch becomes an incredibly popular and positively historical console.
howtoby27 it’s not Cookie Monster.
Well, here we are
Breath of the Wild looks amazing, but when you factor in Mario Odyssey AND Xenoblade 2 now the Switch becomes a must have system. For anyone who hasn't played the original Xenoblade on Wii I highly suggest downloading it from the eshop. It's probably my favourite game ever. Monolith Soft is the Square Enix of Nintendo.
Only they actually know how to do a proper RPG that isn't Dragon quest or Bravely default.
The head of the studio helped with the greatest FF of all time, i don't think it's a coincidence .
Jack Von Bartesby Which one did he work on? I'm not saying I'll disagree with "greatest FF of all time" but that's certainly up for debate (especially if you aren't talking about IX :P).
PGSawesome VI.
Don't you think it is a little odd that VI dipped in steam punk and questions about god hood?
yup, that's the work of the director of the Xeno series.
To be fair IX is my third favorite FF, it would probably be the first or second if it didn't punish you to get to the secret bosses and quests, also the last boss was absolute garbage.
Probably the best cast and art style tough (even if Both Tactics and VI are also extremely rich in both aspects)
Kello Kabana what is Xenoblade? It looked interesting but Im not familiar with the IP
Xevyer Delarkins A series of games by the studio Monolith soft.
It's first entry was Xenoblade chronicles for the Wii, it is an Action/RPG with a rich story, characters and Soundtrack, a very, very good game. If you are into Jrpgs, you should definitely play it.
The second entry, Xenoblade Chronicles X, is not related to the first entry and has much more focus on exploration, featuring a gigantic world chock full of content. The story and Music is nowhere near a strong as the first entry but the characters, side quest and combat are top notch, not to mention that's probably the best Open world I've ever played.
A new entry was announced for the Nintendo switch recently, we don't know much right now, but chances are this entry is actually connected to the first game. It is also note worthy that they brought the original composers back (HYPE).
Very good games, if you are into Rpgs they are definitely worth your time.
I agree with the people on stage being one of the coolest parts of the conference. I would really like to see Koizumi as the new face of Nintendo directs.
He is miyamotos successor and thats good.
Well then I've got good news
Arlo you got to be kidding me when you said pro-consumer. This system is quite the opposite. Have you heard about anything on how much the accessories cost? And being able to play online should be free. You can play every game on the pc online for free, we already know pretty much that this service is going to be inferior to the competition, they already gave us a taste of that with the voice chat app. I also don't care about any of the features I would be getting if I paid for online because the only thing I want is to play multiplayer, that's it.
SylvesterrSan the accessories aren't really any more expensive that the other controllers. the dock is absurd though, especially if it's just a plastic dock
Joycons cost 80 and the pro controller costs 70. Wii motes still cost 50 and so do Wii U pro controllers. No way the technology didn't drop in price yet. This way the standard for a controller will be 150 in the end because it's normal for it to be more expensive than the last controller and it's normal for it to never drop in price.
I just remembered that there was an article on how much the ps4 controller cost to make. It was like 15$ or something low like that.
he clearly meant this console is more pro-consumer than previous nintendo ones.
Robed Figure
How.
SylvesterrSan
re-watch the video please
All I want for the Nintendo Switch is an official Arlo game.
Ninetales Commander Super Arlo Bros.
Arlo 4 Smash
Ninetales Commander
arlo 64
Splarlotoon
Ninetales Commander . have him as a secret boss in the next Pikimin
DAT ZELDA TRAILER THO!!!
Raptor_Guy I didn't tear up, I swear
I KNOW RIGHT?!?!?!?
Good to know someone shares my reaction :P
Fucking best game ever i bet you
+Johnx 140 YES.
zelda naked *kinks*
Arlo, you're complaining about motion controls, but you're forgetting that nintendo probably kept it in order play old wii games on the switch (in eshop or similar).
Great video btw.
WII SPORTS RESORT DELUXE HD!!!!!!
@@edwardjohn7328 Great modern games use motion controls as well. I personally really liked Zelda’s gyro controls for bow, and 99% of competitive Splatoon players use motion controls, for good reason because it allows you to aim as well as with a mouse, quickly, precisely, and comfortably. Also yes I know this is old and I’m digging up a dead comment lol.
"Gamers across the world enraged when they remember you have to pay money for video games."
NTG wait really???
*Nintendo games
The spectrum of Switch commenters:
4 - Switch looks great I got mine on preorder! (goes to play a Zelda game to get hyped)
3 - I'm concerned about this-and-this but overall positive! (goes to do something productive)
2 - Nintendo fucked this one thing up so I'm not gonna get it! (goes to their kitchen to straighten their Tupperware)
1 - I have a degree in future-telling and this system will FAIILL!!!! (goes to play Gears of War and yells at screen)
I'm totally a four, but I haven't pre-ordered mines yet.
you forgot 5: just doesnt give a fuck anymore.
Im sick of this company trying to pass this shit off as "innovative" and "new" fuck off ya smelly old people. Ill buy breath of the wild for wii u, and leave to never come back. Im done. I am so done. They dont care about their fans and they deserve to go under. Plain and simple.
This sounds like a 2 to me. If you didn't give a fuck, then you wouldn't even have clicked this video. I'm not calling you out. It's just an observation.
thelastspartanS117 For the sake of consistency you should consider yourself more in the 1.5 category
ToastyOs Best comment so far 😂
I just felt the need to comment that, as always, I'm loving your taste in VGM. It's almost like you're picking songs right out of my UA-cam VGM playlist every time I watch one of your videos! I always look forward to whatever song is next. Also, could you maybe turn up the volume of the background music just a *little* bit more for future videos? Thanks!
Alright, you've officially got me excited for the Switch by the end of this video.
SSB_Seal Ayy. Like you probably do I have a VGM playlist, a HQRip playlist, and a non-ironic HQRip playlist.
+CajBaj the White You know it
This video sums up my thoughts PERFECTLY, and why I am not ashamed of my pre-order. You got yourself a new subscriber! Also, Project Octopath Traveler looks DOPE.
How did you like it?
Worst reveal ever. I'll pass and get Zelda for Wii U, and will buy Switch second hand so Nintendo don't get anymore money off me.
James Marley worst reveal? xbox one reveal was way worse
kakyoin MILF HUNTER true, second worst then
James Marley even if you get it second hand you are supporting them by promoting sales and trades of the system.
Like I'm not trading in my vita cause it would only net me 60 dollars at GameStop. But if people actually bought used vitas, I'd get 120 easy just like 3ds.
masteroflag 60 dollars at GameStop? More like 15
Smasherfan88 well then your rep lied cause the app lets you even show that it's 60 by itself. With games and card it's more obviously but since that means locking away replaying any digital games I did get on vita from all the sales, it isn't worth it really
People keep complaining about the price and it doesn't make any sense. Adjusted for inflation the Switch is the third-cheapest home console in history, behind the GameCube and only $2 more than the Wii.
Yeah. Also the same people keep comparing the Switch's graphics to hardware that currently costs over $1000. They're not making any sense.
Turtles Tortellini The problem isn't the cost for the console itself but rather what we get with it (not bundled with a game) and the costs of every other thing that you buy separately.
Turtles Tortellini agreed, people are spoiled.
Well I know how you think $300 is to much but let me explain something to you. The PS4 at launch was $400. Then the Xbox one was $500. And the Nintendo Switch is $300. As of now the Xbox One and PlayStation are indeed $250 but it's because they have been out in stores for so long. I'm not trying to be rude and everyone has an opinion but I'm just saying 💯😌
The switch really isn't $300 though.
You don't get enough USb-c cables so you'll need to spend more unless you want to disconnect your doc from the wall every time you leave. $7-$10
32GB is not enough memory for more than 2 games downloaded at a time... 200GB card for memory is cheap but that's still $70
Guess what no ethernet port you need the $30 adapter for better connection/faster downloads
If you have more than 1 tv unlike laptops you can't just plug and go with a tv you need to buy a second dock or completely disconnect the one you have every time. $90 extra dock
want a second controller well they are $70 and $80 when the DS4 is $47
Voice chat isn't included in the system its a separate app that isn't fully unlocked unless you buy it... that also means you can't voice chat without a smart phone so hope you aren't a kid or a person with a Windows phone/blackberry or anything not supported. Price? Who knows.
Get ready for that monthy subscription price also that gives you a 1 game rental a month when the competition give 6 permanently free games every month.
Hope you weren't expecting even a noticeable visual upgrade over the previous system because you don't get that either in fact its a substantial visual downgrade over the competition. And I know the PS4 launched with 26 games on day 1 well you get 5 on switch and a year full of games that released several years ago.
Evan C 32GB is more than enough because the games are cartridge based, which means they do not need to be installed onto the system like disk games
Bloop iero I wouldn't consider any of those unnecessary this isn't fucking 2008 your competition has everything you don't. Easy access to emulation we've had for 15 years on PC. N64 didn't have a good launch line up but had such a incredible jump in visuals SM64 couldn't be done on the previous gen and looked like a dream... it wasn't a minor resolution bump to a game on previous gen also. N64 also sold horribly!
+Evan C Who the hell doesn't have a spare phone charger in 2017...? You bring up some good points besides that, but the thing about the USB-C cable was kind of ridiculous... You NEED a spare charger specifically to take with you in public, because you don't want your main one to get lost if you need to charge your phone somewhere public...
Dogman_35 Its almost as if you've never heard of apple products only the most popular individual brand of phone that doesn't use USB-c
At least it's only 300 at launch and not 500 like the Xbox one
in the long run you will spend way more money :) with a switch , but you can't see why, because you are just a nintendo kid :)
do you have any facts to back up your claims? No because you're just a salty Microsoft kid
Of course you will spend way more money. On Games ;)
shhhhhh, i am trying to play my games with free online and without parental control countdowns, if it's not too much.
I've never heard anyone argue that the switch should compete with PCs. That's usually reserved for consoles that try to compete with PCs. Like the Microsoft and Sony ones. And parental control is optional. Unless of course you're a 12 year old, than that sucks. But yeah, I agree, the peripherals are too expensive. But if they're made with the same quality as other Nintendo products, they won't break easily (I dropped my 3DS at least two dozen times over the last few years from significant heights and it's still going great)
There are games that exist where motion is a huge benefit and helps the experience, mainly New play control Pikmin, Metroid Prime Trilogy and No more heroes. They showed that motion can work and not just be a neat party trick. We need more of those games that use it better, hell Splatoon did it with the gyroscope.
Something you should really know.
ALWAYS. BUY. PHYSICAL.
The system is cartridge based, and because of it, it's faster than discs. When ever you pop in a disc for the first time, it almost always had to do an installation to speed up gameplay later on.
The switch's cartridges don't require such a task and will boot up immediately (example, every 3Ds game), and you will save directly on the cartridge (Remember, Memory Cards came out when discs did). Because of its Cartridges, 32 GB is not that bad.
And if you lose the tiny cartridge?
GONE. All that data and progress? GONE.
What if you don't live in the US?
Wait till holiday or ship it. Which costs more money in the long run.
Finn the Mudfish Well if you loose it, it's your fucking fault. I don't see anyone complaining about the 3DS, which functions the *exact* same way.
For international, I completely understand.
However, there are downsides to every choice. It's your decision in the end. I just view Physical as being better for the switch.
U1timate1nferno I can get a bigger SD card.
Ideally, I prefer a mix of both.
However, Flash carts don't necessarily mean faster loading times. If they are made with similar tech to Vita's card there will be games with long loading times. Flash memory itself has slower read speeds as well.
Bill Beis yeah and you can spend another 150 dollars for a 2 tb card so the console is 450 dollars? Lol funny
"But did you see what else they had?"
Uh, no lol. I saw Mario and Zelda and some empty promises...
SensibleGaming You can't say it's an empty promise when they haven't even had a chance to fulfill them yet.
SensibleGaming WHY DOES NO ONE CARE ABOUT XENOBLADE?!
Talking about at least three separate developers coming on stage and showing nothing.
Xenoblade, Dragon Quest, Splatoon 2, Skyrim (REMASTERED), Sonic Mania and Project 2017, FIFA, Fire Emblem Warriors, others?
Oh really? I saw Bomberman, Puyo Puyo Tetris, Skyrim, Rayman Legends again, Sonic Mania, Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, Skyrim, and a totally improved version of the best Mario Kart.
motion controls are never going to be done. It probably won't get used as much, but this time around it won't be FORCED on games like the Wii did. It looks more like its a traditional system and the motion will be a gimmick only certain games like Arms will use.
Even arms can use normal standard pro controller/no motion control joycons
Though Mario odyssey used motion controls far too much for my liking, it is practically forced in that game
@@MrMoon-hy6pn not really, you can do most of the things without doing motion control, and it's far less forced then the wii
I don't wanna play a game if grandpa Joe can't join in the fun
MegaFawfulfan Lmao
Wow, I needed this after watching Jim Sterling's video.
Only watch his videos if you want to be mad.
I remember watching his "the last guardian" video befor I buyd the game, and I shoudln't have done it.
Ugg... don't remind me, that video was just hating on Nintendo because he thinks EVERY PROBLEM in the industry is the big company's fault without fact checking first.
How to piss yourself off on purpose:
- Watch any of Jim's videos
- Say anything remotely good about Nintendo in BlackB0nd's comment section
WHY does everyone complain that $300 is too expensive? It's ludicrous. Wii U - $300 launch price. Xbox One - $500 launch price. PS4 - $400 launch price. The last system to be released for $250 was the Wii - over 10 years ago! Even the PS2 and Xbox were more than $250! I'm all for pointing out Nintendo's flaws but this is not one of them.
Also, I did some inflation calculations. $250 in 2006 (the year the Wii was released, and the last time a console was $250) is equal to about $300 in 2016 (not enough data for 2017 yet). If the Switch would have been released at $250, that would have been like $200 in 2006 bucks. The Switch is essentially the same price that the Wii was.
Exactly. I payed over $1200 for my two GTX 980Ti gpus that are running in SLI, and all of the games available on Steam are officially total dog shit compared to Zelda: BOTW, Splatoon 2, Xenoblade 2, etc. $300 is extremely affordable. It's humorous that the same people talking bad about the Switch's specs play on PS4 and Xbox One, neither of which have impressive specs at all. And can you take them with you portably? Fuck no, in fact there's no innovation whatsoever. Nintendo Switch is clearly a better value proposition with better games, better controllers, better storage medium, better load times, better everything. This is just the beginning.
"Once the price drops a bit" hoo boy
It dropped in Europe tho
looking back on this year lator... we had no idea what we had comming at us
Sorry Arlo. But I need Gyro controlls for Splatoon. Other than that I agree with you.
TopHatLucario I completely forgot you can only use the screen when it isn't on the dock... Woah, don't know what they're gonna do about it. Maybe some special joystick thingies?
Alonso Mancini The Joycon controllers have gyro. So that will do it.
TopHatLucario joycons, and pro controller have gyro don't worry
TopHatLucario i haven't seen you in a while
TopHatLucario ha I seen you before
I am surprised you didn't mention you can't even use headsets for voice chat. You have to purchase a separate app on your smartphone to be able to talk to your friends.
Erik R They never said you have to purchase the app, you have to pay for online services. It's the same thing as xbox and playstation but on your phone.
when I preordered the Switch, there was an option to preorder a headset
Erik R Where the fuck did you get this from?
Link? I'm not skeptical here, I just got one on pre-order and I didn't see anything headset related.
Actually that has not been confirmed. That is speculation. Headsets designed for the switch specifically say connect to the system, and they come with a mic. The switch audio jack also supports mic input, according to the official Japan website. There is more proof supporting the fact that the console will support voice chat than not being able to. Besides, even if it doesn't at launch a system update can fix it pretty easy, considering it already has a mic port, Bluetooth, and USB inputs on the dock.
Update: For anyone skeptical here is the link to the headset. Read the description.

Yeah, the IR camera was only really useful for LABO. I really don’t get why it needed to be included.
I'm also super excited, I even have a Switch and BoTW on preorder!
Teenkitsune sexy fox
Same! So hyped!!!
Furry hating won't do anything for anyone.
I was actually happy about motion controls because it opens the door for possible Wii games brought to HD, or at least Wii virtual console titles. Skyward Sword HD or Galaxy HD I really want to happen.
Good for you haha looks like that worked out
Gosh darn Nintendo, you are hard to love sometimes, but you are even harder to hate. I want the switch to work, so you better change some policies and make us proud.
I think the switch has been working pretty well lately I been in love with mine
I know it's minor, but Binding of Isaac at launch is a huge asset, Atleast for me
Looking back at all these salty people complaining about the switch launch is funny
This video just came up in my recommendeds five years later. You can really see how Arlo has grown in the meantime!
"so grandpa joe can join in on the fun" XD that quote is incredible.
Here I am, in Sept. of 2022, going back and watching all of Arlo's past videos and enjoying them.
So people are complaining about the price for online gaming even though *it's totally not like the other two consoles have a online service you have to pay!*
To be fair, i am complaining about that because I've have *ALWAYS* complained about that, it always struck me as anti consumer.
Of course! Everyone hates it i
on the inside
PCs dosen't require you to pay extra for online.
GlossyCandle Is that completely true? Or is everyone and I just using something like Steam as a example
If there are any PC games that make you pay to play online they are the exception. I am slightly disappointed at paid online, but if it's something negligible like $20 a year and results in more stable online play then I won't be terribly upset.
I don't get why people hate motion controlls. just because it's been a thing for a while doesn't mean it's terrible. I'm even gonna stand up for the Wiis motion controlls because people really just exaggerate it.
first the Wii. they were *very* responsive to me. I had Wii sports, Mario Galaxy one and two, and some random deigo game a realtive got me.
I actually took care of my Wii motes and I still find them accurate and responsive here's some games that kinda show this.
galaxy
I never ever ended up yelling at the screen "but I shook the Wii mote!" when playing galaxy which doesn't use the Wii motion plus. the olny times I did mess up or die because of a spinning problem was when I spun too soon. if you actually play Galaxy there's a luma somewhere that tells you that you can't spin again untill the luma in your cap comes back. if you actually look the luma is popping out of Mario's cap after every spin. in galaxy, as well has said the special mechanics levels like rolling green and loop de loop galaxy were everywhere. and they were absolutely fine. I actually find the controlls really sensitive as I have tried to get Mario to stop while rolling on a ball and my best record for trying is around 3 minutes, at average five and a half. I recently tried this today as a form of research, if you will. it's hard to get that exact upright point to register because the motion controlls are actually pretty good back on the Wii (and I was actually concentrating on getting the controller upright. no baised carelessness or anything) and I honestly don't care about moving around when playing a game. its exercise and it's not really that much at the most. lazy people need to get off thier butts and shake a controller without crying geez.
Wii sports resort
this used the Wii plus but it's still hated on I mean like I didn't even see a problem with the Wii thing and just saw the plus as a waste of money. if you actually take care of the controller and don't over shake like a manic or throw them it's absolutely fine. but never less I gotta talk about this.
-the air plane minigame
this one was my favorite. I tried my best to find evrey I point but sadly to this day there's still one missing. the way to zoom up was to push forward and to slow down pull backwards. olny when I was frantically trying to zoom up repeatedly in the 2 player battle mode did it mess up and slow me down understandably because I was also pulling back quite fast to reset. that controller was a bad choice in my opinion but it wasn't shoehorned because 2 shot 1 gave a flare, I bet b did something but I can't remember and who care what dpad and a did because the main buttons you used were at the bottom and having you (especially a kid with small hands) slide up the Wii more then slide down would be annoying. the controlls were good. of course it operated like a plane so it did some commands slowly and sometimes not at all (flying straight up, making sharp turns, game wasn't coded to prepare you for landing on land so you had to be so careful and when you actually did it it would be a once in a blue moon thing and if you touched ANYTHING you would blow up etc) but the fact that it moved as if you were putting commands in as if you were flying a actual plane. the motion controlls made it very immersive and that's the reason why I played it so darn much.
-swird fighting
I played the crap. out of this game untill lvl 1000 miis started to show up. and let me tell ya, it was good. it did what I did when I did it. no lag, no exaggeration of weakness or power, just a pure response. once I had a numchuck that I got from good will plugged in for no reason and and so it wouldn't let me block but other than that, amazing controlls. the game told me once to aim at uncovered spots that are most effective (legs for pushing back people, chest because duh etc) when I aim at legs it hits legs no lag. when I decided to not really care and go crazy, it followed my moves mark my words. that sword fight duel minigame should become a online thing I swear it would be so fun. I wouldn't say the next smash bros but close
•wii fit plus
why Wii fit? they used motion a few times. the jogging game and the one where you tilt colored balls into buckets matching the same color. I won't speak about moving because it's easy to just take it. they didn't try muchfor decting cheaters at all. just sit and wiggle the Wii mote. but I will talk about the ball tilting one. playing video games with my body is so fun and I don't see how it can get old. not even shoe horned controlls didn't make it unfun. not feeling lazy for sitting on the couch and having full 100% controll with using your body was great. no more "but I pressed a at the edge there and it didn't register!!" the wii? just tilt it and it will no lag no lie copy your moves. I feel like I've been saying this a lot but seriously though, buy a brand spanking new Wii mote and play a Wii game. even in games when it's not the focus like Wii fit, it's still good and it's still fun. playing video games and doing exercise at the same time? as long at the games are fun and the motion decent enough to immerse you, sign me up! I usually just ignore getting tired when it's a good game. sword fighting? forget sweat I'll make you wall and get wet! galaxy? not even much of a try it's all in the wrist. ARMS? it looks like another great game like some things on Wii sports resort so I'm game! and if I get really tired like pacer test tired? I switch to normal like control and deal with that for a while.
lazy people need to get up and lose some fat ffs. most motion games I see aren't even a chore and they aren't that terrible even hen shoe horned and it isn'tsuch a big deal such as mainstream same sh*t tubers say. for most motion complainers it's not even thier opinion and just because they did it a while doesent mean it's not still fun and cool. nintendo is at thier peak with the switch so we don't need to be hearing "oooo get sum new ideas for your consoles nintendo" for a while. motion controlls still have potential as with games with arms and shouldnt just be trashed because nobodys touched it. in my opinion you're basically saying the equivalent of "trash cake. it's been. an all time favorite desert that many people made great art out of but this been a thing for a long time so it's old and simply because of that it should be trashed." motion controlls have proved to be good and have potential many times over. if you're too picky and hate how they were on Wii then good news, they upgraded now, and are already feasting on potential with arms and 1 2 switch. I hate it when my favorite tubers pull the same stuff mainstream same sh*t tubers say just to get on the popular options good side when it's obvious you are under estimating stuff or trying to get likes. pokèmonons been out for a while, it still has potential, some people say it used to be bad, and has already/could have upgrades. trash pokèmon then? or how about 2d Mario? it can have potential as manypeople on Mario maker have shown, just because it's been out and people haven't put on the full potential before doesent mean it should be trashed now.
candy-kat! kitty-lichious! I dislike them mostly for Nintendo's attitude towards developers and gimmicks. The Wii U failed hard (in part) because Nintendo forced its awful gimmicks on developers, insisting the pointless motion controls and second screen were part of everything (hence in most 3rd party games it's your inventory or map). They did the same with the Wii and its motion controls (which I personally thought were great once the motion plus came around, and I think Skyward Sword in particular was amazing). Here, my fear was that Nintendo would shove all these gimmicks down developers' throats again, but everything they have been saying about Nintendo this time suggests that Nintendo have given up on that approach and gone for developer friendly APIs combined with no annoying requirements (like using the touch screen or motion controls).
+candy-kat! kitty-lichious! Agreed, motion controls have done more to push the industry forward than the last 10 years of graphics whoring. Honestly, that's probably one of the most natural ways to evolve the industry at this point, graphics have gotten about as realistic as they can get, now it's time for controls to follow suit. Having controls that mirror real life actions would open up a lot of potential for future games and make them a lot more immersive, so the people that label them as "gimmicks" just look ignorant and closed-minded.
I'm glad I got some good replys here. I do get how developers do shoehorn motion controlls but I've olny seen that in a few games (a roller coaster tycoon where you tilt the wii mote to put how the track tilts, some things in that deigo game I got, the camera on the ship on Metroid blast,etc) but it's got potential and shouldnt be just trashed for being different or inventive or an attempt to impress fans while doing real work (those are all traits for things people keep calling "gimmicks". I don't see why nintendo fans still stick around when they get so triggered over motion controlls unlike me. Nintendo are the kings of "gimmicks" and that's good. And they aren't and shouldnt go to stop. Just leave the fanbase if you're gonna cry and tell nintendo not to do console gimmicks.) Like here's a problem I have; I actually enjoy minecraft on Wii u. (GASP I know. I'm not some stupid addicted fanboy kid I just like to play from time to time.) But I hate turning. The sensitivity options are crap. When I hate it high I turn fast but can't aim a bow or potion at all. But when I have it low I've basically committed suicide. On the Metroid ship the whole looking around with the game pad was weird because you also had to look directly above and directly below and the ship was fast. But if they put the ships controlls in Minecraft I would turn, and then the game would turn and it would be all at my own pace.
Another example, maybe another spam something Mario party mini game? Shake the Wii mote hard and as much as possible.
The way the Wii u tried to do motion was bad but I still feel I shouldn't hate on everything cuz there was a failed attempt. It's like a teacher saying
"Ooh this kid made a mistake on the test!!!!!!! DELEQUINT STUPID KID IM NOT TEACHING YOU YOU SHOULD BE KICKED OUT OF SCHOOL CUZ YOU FORGOT SOME PARENTHESES WE AND PUT SOME PARENTHESES IN THE WORNG PLACE!!! YOU AND YOUR MISTAKE GIMMICKS" narrow minded as hell. Then there's the people with brains narrow as paper and are salty when anything new comes out. I'm not gonna yell at arlo because he was just a little worried and the fact that they haven't done anything with HD rumble other than put it in the tech demo release game (Wich supplies nothing to complain about because I believe nintendo make great tech demo games and that you can't deny how the marble mini game was cool and it's expected to put HD rumble in the tech demo game.) It's the people who screech at the HD rumble when there are over 80 games in development for switch and all of them from over 30 well educated companies on switch coding. Especially the ones who call themselves nintendo fans when it's expected for nintendo to add another "gimmick" I mean, it being both hand held and console is cool and all but it will get boring and (hopefully) just become the norm with nintendo. I think nintendo shows that they are gonna keep doing porta consoles by adding another trick to the console because it being both portable and console won't just do the trick where they're going.
I thought that would be shorter than it turned out. I'm sorry. Also ignore typos and auto correct, I'm too tired rn to go back and edit.
I agree with you.
Talking about how big, expansive, and visually dynamic the the games look on the Switch look just got me thinking of one thing. Pokemon Snap. Nintendo doesn't seem to want to put that final nail in the coffin of the 3DS quite yet so it might be a while until we see a Pokemon RPG on the Switch, but that doesn't mean we can't have other Pokemon games on it first. Just imagine how perfect a new Pokemon Snap game would be for the Switch.
No way
:)
You called it man, good job!
I feel like the inclusion of all the motion controls, HD rumble, and IR sensor is not to keep a foot in the past, but rather in the future. There are rumors that the Switch will incorporate VR in the future, and I believe that the inclusion of these features opens the door to many different possibilities with VR. By not including them, Nintendo would have completely edged themselves out of any future VR experiences with the Switch, so I think by including and exploring the limits of these arguably proactive features now, it will allow Nintendo to do greater things with the Switch in the future. It's always good to think ahead.
ANDR01D82 what do you mean by "IR"? current x resistance maybe an infrared component? like the one in remote ms that looks like an LED?
ANDR01D82 agreed, even if you don't like motion controls and you think there just a gimmick, there's something you can do! Not buy games that need motion controls and turn off motion controls on regular games.
I just hope online pay is cheap
BMO I hope it's fair price I just want good online and for that we need to pay up for them to make profit
ARMS can be played with standard controllers and hd rumble is absolutely awesome once you try it out.
Where did you get this info from?
SylvesterrSan The Tree house live segment confirmed it.
The people who played it and the treehouse event........
ProJared played it and said it was more fun than it looked in the trailer.
Lol silly arlo. Little did you know...
You know this is the first time I've been to your channel and I am already hooked. The use of a sesame street esque puppet is a really interesting way to make videos that I actually haven't seen before on UA-cam in the way it is being done on this channel (And I watch A LOT of UA-cam). It's refreshing and creative I like and just wanted to say keep at it man your doing great things and are improving the site by adding your creativity.
Finally someone not just complaining about the switch, it's a breath of fresh air.
Just wait 'till the Switch outsells the WiiU by march 2018, and outsells the PS4 by 2024
They really hit the stuff I love, Disgaea 5, Xenoblade, big JRPG games. Almost makes me sad that I have a PS4 (which I only bought for Disgaea) because the games I'd get on ps4 look like they'll go to the switch.
Looks like it's time to SWITCH
Looks like it's time to go to your local gamestore, sell our ps4 and SWITCH
The switch has a lot of potential when it comes to the japanese market.
Hand helds are King in japan, and they just announced Splatoon 2, 4 Dragon quest games and a new SMT.
Those are very High profile titles in Japan by some of the most important video game companies in Japan.
Regardless of how the switch does in general, i have a strong feeling it's gonna be a hit in japan, that will probably translate into a steady stream of japanese third parties.
The switch is definitely interesting for any RPG fan (my self included) just look at the games, Xenoblade 2, 4 Dragon quests, a new main line SMT, a new IP by the guy that directed Bravely default and Disgaea 5.
I've got to admit, just Mario and Zelda was enough to convince my dad, and he wouldn't go for the WiiU
1:48 translation: "It wasn't just what they said, it was what they *said* ."
*warning, nerd rant* @6:38 you said "any micro-USB cable". I'd like to correct you. USB Type-C is not the same as micro-USB. micro-USB (also known as Micro USB-B) is used in cell phones and some other devices, and also come in various flavors, 4-pin, 5-pin, and 6-pin versions. For instance, the Playstation4 Controller uses the 5-pin USB Micro-B pinout, and the Playstation3 Controller uses the 4-pin USB Micro-B pinout. USB Type-C is a completely different animal, providing higher amperage and voltage than its predecessors, meaning the Switch is going to charge faster than your typical USB 3.0 device. Also, it's likely that's the connection point to the Switch Dock, which needs the 10Gbps speed for high-speed HDMI output.
That said, USB Type-C, if Apple has their way, will likely become the new standard in USB connections anyway, and in the next few years, that's just going to be normal, and you will be right about "any old cable around the house" someday.
The Switch "screams user-friendly"?
*Laughs in 2 years later with breaking controllers, scratched screens, limited online performance, and no cloud saving for every big title*
It breaks my heart hearing him speak so positively...
It has those problems but it’s still very good.
Both Botw and Odyssey have cloud save. What other big title are you referring to?
the scratched screens was absolutely fake news that should not have been perpetuated back then
joy cons indeed had multiple problems, especially stick drift (that I experience first-hand)
most consumers have forgotten or never cared about certain games lacking cloud saves
Cloud saves are through NSO. Splatoon 2 is the only Nintendo game I know of to not have this feature.
An actual pikman and paper mario game.

The new Mario being a real original and more story focused (kind of) and having a unique and non generic boring Mario art style gives me hope that they'll do the same for Paper Mario and bring the new games back into the mainline universe that the first three games took place in rather than the new storybook world that Sticker Star and Color Splash took place in with Paper Jam. Better more fitting non papery art style, enhanced and better RPG gameplay, partners with unique personalities and character development, original characters and friendly NPC's of typical Mario enemies, and big epic and grand stories with tones of depth and emotional complexity as well as being relatively dark for a Mario game. Games that expand the lore and characters' development and canon in the actual Mario universe like the first three games again.
TheZeldaExperienceWithin Good God, if we get a Paper Mario game that's actually on par with Thousand Year Door and not the dumbed down garbage they've given us for the last ten years, I might actually just pop.
I think that simple gyro controls are a must have, just because it works WONDERS for shooters and other first person games, but, yeah, as cool as the HD rumble and stuff is, they honestly could have left that out to make the system less expensive and it'd be fine.
Wow Arlo you're almost at 100,000 subscribers...this video should get you too 100,000 wooooo I've been here since 10,000 and I can't believe how you've grown lol they grow up so fast...best blue puppet youtuber ever and keep up the great work! 😂 (you're never going to hear the end of that "oooooo" comment when zelda was shown from me lol)
Oh and nintendo has said more games will be shown for the switch soon I think at E3 so let's hope!
Slenderfoxx37 oh hey boi he reached 100,000! And they did announce a brand new fire emblem game for switch not just warriors A REAL one
+FroakieTrainer54 wooooooooo!!!!0
Nice job on the editing at the end there, Mr. Editor! 😂
When I first saw Arlo I thought he was Cookie Monster
I still think he's the cookie monster...
Ryan Leimgruber No, he is Grover's cousin. Lol.
J Schroeder Grover and Cookie Monster's love child
Cookie monster was his cousin that got an unfortunate addiction to cookies
As a Splatoon fan I actually would of been really disappointed if they didn't keep motion controls.The mix of motion and stick control gives fluid and snappy aim/movement control like a mouse on PC with the simplicity of a controller. I honestly think if they can actually truly get 3rd party developers on board and using the same control style for other established shooters they could quite possibly become the go to console for the genre.
Arlo you finally reached 100,000 (100,333 to be exact) subscribers WOOOOOO!!! Lol you deserve it your videos are always so well done and you have a great personality and are the funniest blue puppet ik (even more then the Cookie Monster) I've been here since 10,000 and I can't wait to see your channel grow (sniff* lol they grow up so fast😄😂) anyways keep up the great work and let's all get excited for the NINTENDO SWITC!!!🎉🎉🎉 Also UA-cam give Arlo his silver play button now! lol oh and Arlo you should make a video unboxing it when it comes also maybe announce you hitting 100,000 through a gamers brief lol...anyways I can't wait for more videos and I hope you continue to post more often or weekly at least because every video you make is so entertaining...anyways sorry for rambling and have a great day (*High fives* since you know you just shaved the palm of your hand in your live reaction to the switch presentation😉 also what's with that collection of shrunken heads...lol)
Oh and my favourite quote has to be the "oooooo" when Zelda was shown in the trailer for Botw 😂
Slenderfoxx37 Im so excited for the switch
I cant wait to play BOTW in my car. Mario Odyssey on a plane
Mario Kart 8 with my bro whenever i want
Splatoon on a Train
Arms looks great
Xenoblade 2 looks good
We got lots of third party games on the go!
Not everything is perfect though I dont think the motion controls are needed or the HD rumble thats cool and all but that makes it more expensive and the online doesnt sound that great
+FroakieTrainer54 yeah the only negative I have is the paying for online...because idk if it will be as good as Xbox or PS online...also I hope the power doesn't make some third party games not come...but other then that it looks amazing and in excited!
Slenderfoxx37 Yeah i dont like paid online
FroakieTrainer54 HD rumble really worries me because I personally hate rumble and always have it off

Congratulations on 100K, Arlo! Your videos are really awesome. Cheer!
as a pc gamer. im not often seen in console hype videos. but today... i feel different. the switch, just like most of nintend. isnt a strong console, the graphics lack and the framerate doesnt reach higher than 60. but when we're talking about nintendo, i think: GOOD GAMES, and proving it can be done on lesser hardware. i really hope the switch stays pro consumer... please nintendo, please.
How do you feel 2 years later?
@@marclam6173 or 3 years later for that matter :D
i m pissed the pro controller is $70, i was gonna play my first zelda game with that but it's too much.
Derp agree the price ridiculous
not to mention the ps4 controller, a controller with more tech is cheaper than this garbage of a price for a pro controller.( even the xbox controller is cheaper)
Derp so you are ditching the joycons without even trying them... you can put them together you know.
After watching some videos from the Switch presentation thing at NYC, a lot of the people who got to play with the Switch Joycons said they felt quite natural to play with, even if you have them split in both hands (or stuck in the Joycon Grip) so while I suppose the experience would be better on the Pro Controller, I cant imagine it being too bad with the joycons.
Derp lol! the ps4 controller costs $15 to make, it doesn't have more tech than the Switch Pro Controller xD
"Oh that's hot, that's hot"
Remember when everyone was labeling the Wii as Nintendo's death knell because it had motion controls, was vastly underpowered, and still outputted games in standard definition? It ended up being Nintendo's best-selling home console to date, all thanks to some stellar advertising. If the big N can promote the Switch with the same level of quality as the Wii's ads, it might just end up being one of their biggest successes.
I just think Nintendo rushes system launches, like...one AAA game from them is fine at launch. System should've came out around fall or something.
Agreed. If it came out in the Fall with Mario Odysessy, Zelda, 3-4 Wii U ports + some decent 3rd party stuff it would have been golden. But I think it's releasing in March because they don't want to compete with the Scorpio.
Joeynator3000 I'm buying one at launch but I completely agree. It wouldve had an incredible launch lineup
That would've only hurt the sales of any and all exclusives.
Do you want to make me wait 5 more months for LoZ? Fuck you.
You can still wait for fall, there's no reason to delay everything.
The only reason i am buying the damn thing at launch is for Breath of the wild, if that game is not reason enough for you, then you should just wait.
Sides we are a few months away from E3, I'd wager they must've saved something sweet for the occasion.
What's the alternative? Wait until Fall for another Nintendo game? They can't go almost a full year without any releases. Nintendo is putting all of their eggs in the Switch basket because they can't afford to put more games out on the Wii U. They were screwed either way tbh.
I think Nintendo (or Reggie) said that they wanted the hardware to be ahead of the software. Kind of forgot exactly what that meant but it was an intentional decision nonetheless.
It was a massive change and success for Nintendo 🙂
$461.18. (tax included)
US price for a Switch, 1 game, and a pro controller....
NOPE
Or maybe because they also can't afford it. Stop being so self-centered and xenophobic.
Why do people keep including the pro controller??? They don't do it with the PS4/XB1. *facepalm*
CanSteam I'm just saying to the Americans to stop complaining, saying "it's too much money :(" when other places have it way worse and have to work more to get the same amount of money. That's all.
Super ahmed Becuase Xbox and Playstation already come with "normal" controllers.
ParkourSheep The Switch is bundled with a normal controller, the only difference is that you can detach them.
Your video evoked the same feelings that those old Rare VHS tapes for Banjo-Kazooie did for me about 1,000 years ago! Not sure exactly how you did it, but keep doing it!
i am getting da switch soon after or the day comes out
Just noticed you have 99,564 subs... well great work almost 100,000 subs! how far your channel has gotten and grown. It is very impressive
churmundr pokemanz yeah I wanted to as well, but I might not be able to
hmm paying extra for online gaming...
i feel like Nintendo forgot their minor gamers
Im new here, why is Arlo's character a Muppet?
The Discussion Zone Are you Muppet racist ?
TIEMEN LOL No. I'm just confused why it's a Muppet.
The Discussion Zone Just because
What are you talking about? That's him. That's what Arlo looks like.
No seriously, im really confused why its a Muppet
I was honestly relieved to see that motion controls are still around. After using gyro aiming in the Zelda remakes and especially in Splatoon, I don't think I can ever go back. I don't think they needed to focus on them in the presentation for as long as they did and they should have talked about more games, but I'm glad they're here and that they will be better than ever.
