Isn't the score is a little bit harsh? Since the first gameplay come out I was worried about animation quality (because dialogs is one of the main parts of the game). But 6/10?
After I watched the review I was really confused. If we put aside the technical problems the review points out that the combat is really fun, the planets are beautiful and diverse the gameplay is enjoyable. So the only reason the game got 6/10 because of the shallow story. Is that so? Because if it is that's a real problem...
I think Switch as a handheld is superb. It is powerful, versatile. I really like the controllers with all those functions. The games on this will look amazing! But I think the resolution could be full HD (but maybe they chose 720p for better battery life) and the storage is quite small.
Switch as a "home" console is a different thing. It is really underpowered. Even in trailers you can saw the low resolution e.g. Super Mario, Splatoon 2. Even with all those third party games coming out for Switch no hardcore gamer will play them on this console. Everyone is moving towards 4K TVs and even PS and Xbox can barely hold up with their "powerful" consoles.
I mean, yes, Mario Kart will be in full HD but it is not a big deal when you realize that Forza Horizon 3 runs on 1080p/60fps on Xbox One. What about third party games? I really doubt that games like Mass effect or Battlefield 1 will run in full HD on this console (not to mention other graphical enhancements).
The price is a difficult thing. I think the tech worth the $300 but it cannot compete in the console market. Only Nintendo Fans (not only fanboys) will buy it as primary console. And again the display is only 720p and the storage only 32GB. For this price at least one could be higher.
@DutchmasterNYC: OK. I can think with developers heads. It costs money to upgrade the games BUT I bought the new console from Sony they should consider at least that. With what games they want to promote he new technology? They can give you a free game in a bundle for a new hardware but they can't say "OK guys, our updates will be free!"
But they screwed only themselves. It says: "Patches that update existing Playstation 4 games". So they created a huge negative buzz that wont matter that much anyway (in a future). Oh Sony... you are the new M$ and Nintendo combined...
Are you F***ing kidding me?! I bought an expensive hardware to have those features why I need to buy them too?! Each and everyone... even for Sony titles, WTF?!
