I have to delete games now to even play games on it. Its a lot slower to fill a Nintendo's console then it is to fill PS4 or even Xbox One games since every physical game has to be downloaded on the console. Besides they already have a game that would fill the entire storage of the switch and its hasn't come out yet its Dragon Hero's 1&2 . I don't find PS4 or even Xbox one being Eco Friendly you waste more space playing the games you bought for the console then you would just having the disks and not having to add them to your very low amount of storage system.. That is probably why I like Nintendo products they don't do that."@pepperjax1230;c-15934399" wrote:"jackjack_k;c-15920679" wrote:Its not Nintendo's fault you can add more by getting a micro sd card and Nintendo has never competed with PS4 or Xbox One so why would they try to compete now? That is why everyone has the choice of what console fits them the best. Since I have been a big Nintendo fan for a long time I chose to get one and 500 GB on PS4 doesn't go far if you DD your games."@MelissaStarbees;c-15920428" wrote:
i seen that coming they have no plans for Mass Effect: Andromeda so i can see EA not doing the Sims 4 for the switch which is sad to be honest. but its their choice. even if some of us don't agree on it. i personally only have a switch and my laptop to play these types of games.
It's Nintendo's fault. ME:A needs more space than a Nintendo Switch catridge allows (32GB).
Plus the internal storage of the Switch is 32GB unless you pay for expansion. The Sims 4 as it stands with all patches and packs is more than 32GB and we're only 3 EP's in.
Unless Nintendo release a bigger model, it's highly doubtful. Meanwhile Xbox and PS4 have 500Gb and 1TB models."jackjack_k;c-15929857" wrote:Its not hard to find stores are carrying it. It won't be a flop because the fact its a hybrid console more so then the Wii U. Since I like handheld gaming systems way better that is why I like it. But I do have a PS4 and a Xbox One S."dogboy678;c-15921630" wrote:"BariSaxy;c-15919821" wrote:
I hate to say it, but I saw this coming. Everyone was so hyped for the Switch, and I never could understand (as a Nintendo fan myself). Third parties (including EA) pledged their support for the Wii U but then turned around. It's obvious they'll do the same for the Switch.
With that said, I don't really think anything of value is lost here for the Switch.
Um that's because the Wii U was a flop. The Switch is really successful.
It's only successful at the moment because it's new and hard to come by (because there's limited stock, sales are often made by resellers).
That said, the Wii U only flopped because third party backed out. If they do the same with The Switch, the Switch will flop too.
You're proving my point.
A SD card being required to play, is the issue. Only a small number of players will have an SD card, so it's useless for EA to sell it to everyone who owns a Switch.
If Nintendo don't want to compete with the PS4/Xbox1, then that is their fault that the Switch can't play the game.
But EA can't market a game to a small selection of players. They need to invest in an eco-system that allows players to play out of box, with all DLC.
If they can't, it's not profitable.
