THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE MUSTACHIAN FORUM ISN'T IT ENOUGH THAT I'M CONSIDERING BUYING A CURRENT GENERATION CONSOLE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE WHY ARE YOU TEMPTING ME INTO BUYING STUFF I ABSOLUTELY DON'T NEED???!??!?!?!??!?!??!?!?!
Ditch the current gen console, buy a better PC, play skyline and save.
Current gen console are equivalent in power to 5-6 years old PCs which can be had for next to nothing.
Do you want to get it for the "exclusives"?
I've been considering getting the Switch, maybe a year or so after it comes out, mainly just for Breath of the Wild (the first of the series was the single best game of it's generation, Ocarina of Time probably my own personal favorite, and the game I was able to get two totally non-gamer partners to get into).
As evidenced by my 2008 laptop (which I only purchased when my then 8 year old laptop burned out its motherboard after 8 solid years), I don't generally care about cutting edge computing ability, so long as it can do whatever I need to get done. So, a console that can't produce the graphics of a new PC doesn't bother me one bit.
As other's have mentioned, sometimes its nice to be able to play while not sitting at my desk, and my wife has recently been as into playing as me, but she would never go for it if it wasn't side by side in the living room
