NOBODY IS SELLING PETE TWO OF THEM UNTIL EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE!

I really don't expect there to be any problems getting one of these things. You pre-order nervous Nellie's make me laugh.

Microsoft is holding back a bunch to be available on the release date.

Yeah, especially since we are talking Christmas gifts here, and not "I need it on the 10th of November."

It’s going to bring on the next generation in gaming. It will be a consolidated entertainment experience that the whole family will use. Next generation hardware will usher in massively expansive games and experiences. Faster load times will keep the user logged on longer and will make FortNite 2 9X as big as the original.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the price drop by $50 or so.

well, right now they are the same price as always.

source: my son dropped ours and it won't connect to the internet or controllers anymore so I had to buy a new one and now we have two but one is hand held only.

My Nintendo knowledge is so embarrassing. I thought they were still on the Wii.

i remember when n64 came out and i was like, holy crap look at this controller -- so many buttons. we're in the future now.

how many buttons are these new systems going to have, Greg? probably 50 or 60?

DaBigTrain · « **Reply #6418 on:** September 23, 2020, 04:37:20 PM »

The more buttons I can mash and joysticks I can control the more I will play

star seed 7 · « **Reply #6419 on:** September 23, 2020, 04:40:54 PM »

The switch just came out with a Mario all stars 3d package. Includes the Mario games from 64, gamecube, and wii

We play Super Smash Bros a lot, but I guess Rivals of Aether comes out on Switch tomorrow, so I've been informed that we'll now be playing lots of that.

Kat Kid · « **Reply #6424 on:** September 23, 2020, 10:51:53 PM »

my kids don't play that much super smash bros. more mario maker and the old mario games.
