Ps4 had more games than Wii u did in about a couple months and Wii u basically had a year headstart.
Now we have this new system which starts off with less games than wii u. About the same graphics as Wii u. No backwards capability. Also incredibly far and late to the console war. It would have to produce about 10x the amount of games a year to catch up to generate interest.
Let's not to mention fans are already alienated and wary of buying the switch after the Wii u failed.
imo, I'd rather stick with nintendo consoles.
Sure, the PS4 has
more games, but if we want to go by number of games. Well.
This is just a small sample of what PC has to offer.A number of those PS4 games are also available on PC anyway, which already has more games than the PS4. Your PC will almost always be backwards compatible as well. Most games made for XP will work on 10 still. Can't say the same about PS2 games on PS4.
So that leaves just the exclusives, and the only one I was even interested in was Little Big Planet 3. Which turned out to be a huge stufffest.
Uncharted looks fun and all, but it's not my kind of game.
That leaves 1 disappointment and 1 "I'd play it if I were bored enough."
On Wii U though, there were many games I've enjoyed. Splatoon, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Mario Kart, Smash Bros, and probably some more I'm forgetting. It's also backwards compatible with Wii games, which would include games like No More Heroes. The PS4 can't play PS3 games.
Then comes affordability. The Wii U was cheaper overall to play than a PS4. The PS4 was initially more expensive, on top of a required monthly payment. Most of the games pumping out as much DLC as they can and the games typically being $5 more than the Wii U's games. The only benefit to the PS4 was that I got LBP3 for free. Then compare this all to PC, which, may have cost me more, but. I spent much more than I needed to on it, with the intention of doing actual work from it. I could've easily spent only $300 or $400 building a PC that will run any game that's on both PC and PS4 at higher quality. Maybe not
all maxed out 60 fps 1080p like real gamurs play but what people keep forgetting is that PS4 and Xbone also fail to achieve this
standard on many of their games. And when they do fail there's usually a fountain of excuses anyway. Either way, I would be able to run the games at a higher quality than the consoles could and that's all that matters for this argument. And then I get a more comfortable control scheme, and I can also do thousands of other things that a console can't do.
So yeah, the fact that Nintendo is stronger on it's first party is very important. Who the forget gives a stuff about PS4 and XBone's third party when I've already got a more superior machine for that, that didn't even need to be in the first place?
That all being said, I'm still probably not going to grab a Switch any time soon, not that they're hanging onto the hopes that people will buy it this early anyway.
