Bet it has the same amount of gsmes/modes as the Nintendo switch does as of today too. If not more....

Not I...not touching the Switch until it hits the clearance bin after it fails hard.

I think it will sell better than the Wii u and maybe even game cube. But well short of the N64 and up. The console launched with a super weak opening lineup. Many missing features, and still very gimmicky. Mind you the Wii was gimmicky but it it was cheap... This is the same price as current gen consoles.

I know so many people who bought one yesterday (pre-order and non pre-order) - every one of them bought it because of the new Zelda game (which is apparently incredible - reviewers are calling it the best Zelda game ever and giving it 100% ratings).
That one killer game alone could make the Switch a success....

I'll be buying one at some point. I love Nintendo games. They are simple and fun and the whole family from the 4 year old to the 13 year old to me and the old girl can play.

The Wii U is my favourite console as well. Cant wait to get a switch.

Looks like the new Zelda game is pretty amazing.
I still haven't played it, but those who have that I know are all loving it - a co-worker of mine took vacation starting the day it came out for 3 weeks just to play it.
It almost has a cult following....
