Nintendo Switch: 10 Crucial Pros & Cons You Must Consider
9. Con: No Pack-In Game
The Switch needs 1-2 Switch as a pack-in title, it just absolutely 100% NEEDS it.
Why? Because back when the Wii was getting ready to launch, the whole world was laughing. The TV remote-looking controllers, the minimal graphics, the lack of HD, the - pah - motion controls? Come on. That won't last a da- *plays Wii Sports* Alright yeah, yeah that's gonna change everything...
Literally everybody who purchased a Wii or went round to a mate's house played Wii Sports. They got used to the technology, felt how fun it could be, and toddled off to buy their own version. The Switch has no such bundled-in game.
Whilst Nintendo are remarking that 1-2 Switch is ostensibly supposed to be a natural Wii Sports' followup in terms of being a fun, gimmick-focussed set of multiplayer experiences, it'll cost you another $40-$50 to grab a copy.
Asking people to invest in a ton of new hardware whilst not showcasing its benefits unless they fork out the additional cost of another game? That's gonna do way more harm than good, especially given Nintendo have proven they know how to sell this sort of thing.
