7 Reasons Why You Should Be Worried About The Nintendo Switch

Really slowly, without anyone even realising it, Nintendo has turned itself into North Korea. In the isolationist sense, not the horrific death camps, shutting itself off from the wider gaming world and trading on past glories.

The console’s lack of power compared to other systems out there is like a giant middle finger to studios who already spend way too much on developing games, and now have to do even more to release a Switch version.

You sure don’t make it easy, do you, Nintendo? This isn’t like bringing out tiny discs, guys. We’re in a darker, more expensive world now. Though it's not like Nintendo seem that bothered, to be honest.
