    but then nintendo wouldn’t be able to shove tons of 6-7 year old hardware down our throats. (the 1st gen’s processor is even older)

    i literally own a switch, but getting that fucking thing to work with my display/audio setup is a pain. just to get 1080p at 30fps.

    no thanks, i’d rather play it at 1440p at a more stable framerate, with a controller of my choice, with the ability to load mods.

      Going off on a slight tangent, but what display/audio setup do you have that the Switch doesn’t work with? It’s just HDMI, like everything else these days.

        i’m using it at my desk where i have one USB-DAC for my speakers and one for my headphones connected to my PC.

        that means i have to switch my monitor from DP to HDMI every time i want to play a game (using samsung’s nipple tech), as well as either running my speakers through a splitter cable hooked up the wrong way to get PC and switch audio, or have the switch on my speakers while having the PC on headphones.

        way too much hassle, plus i can lose my cursor on the right screen where the switch is, as well as having to blindly drag apps from there as they start. plus i completely miss incoming desktop messages.

        and yes, i watch youtube while playing games. that’s why i need PC audio.
