Ironically it is you who have been suckered. The poster we're quoting referenced the 2013 Moto G (for which $179 was the full fat, unlocked, off contract price) and the 2013 Nexus 7 Tablet ($199, also not subsidized). Don't assume everyone's a dumbass that thinks an iPhone 7 is $199.

Pack it up.
Yeah, I don't get why this thread is still open. I thought the ones with the fake rumours don't get to have threads around here anymore.

From those "rumored/leaked" specs: Yes!

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
So if the reports are true and the system hits for a surprisingly low pricepoint, you'd be fine?

I have no problem with anything, I like it and would be fine with $299. I was just correcting the notion that guy (Sutan) wasn't posting $700 devices to make his point...which kind of proves his point that so many of you thought he was.

Welp, any information she had I don't believe.
This guy really has some nerve.

listen to the mad man
Phone subsidies in the US ended a little while ago. There are new-release smartphones with good specs (not sure how comparable to the Switch, naturally), for <$100, mostly from Chinese firms or low-cost firms like Blu.

that's a girl, but agreed.
As I've said I didn't read the whole argument. On mobile because normal site is down, but that's no excuse I guess. The guy asked how much do phones cost and the Moto G was incredibly basic and the Nexus 7 not so powerful either. But it looks like you guys are talking about screens. At those times the screens were probably a bigger part of the price than the other components based on the specs. And same goes for the "2k" displays currently.
Is it really though? Relative to flagship models, the specs of those phones are still budget tier. Or has that changed? I haven't dealt with being on contract for years.
Perrin Kaplan, an actual Nintendo employee, once said that the Wii was region free.
I really hope they are because these specs are worse than I thought they would be.
Oh lol thought it was a guy with a female avatar. Crazy anyway.

I would certainly prefer to have a 720p screen knowing that all the games on the system will actually hit that mark, than a 1080p screen where devs have to trade off between native resolution and performance.

Looks exactly like an early DevKit should be...
OK, I need more informations then, you mean it would be upscaled or something like that?

Laura Dale is saying this as well, FWIW, though I agree it's best to take it with a grain of salt until it's official.

Any chance of SCD support or something that will guarantee the console side is 1080p? I think it looks great but can't stomach 720p on my 60" anymore.

That's... About the same system memory bandwidth 360 had, I know it has better compression due the newer architecture, but wtf?

A non issue? Modern games are huge and only getting bigger. If this thing is running Xbone-like games then it surely is an issue.
It basically makes going digital a non-option unless you're willing to spend an additional 200+$ on a sufficiently sized SD-card. And even then that 500GB will fill up fast.

Man if it's 32gb... I'm already struggling with the launch Xbox One's 500gb

What if you can expand the cardtridges with microSD cards optionally.
While true, I'm guessing most people will be playing those more massive games at home while the system is docked with an HDD attatched.

that is actually a great question, NS seems to be a little more personal like any portable device, in which the trend is to go to single account system
The dock includes USB ports right? When the Wii U got the same complaints didn't Nintendo just say let the user expand with external storage, which in that case they were mostly talking about USB storage. I mean I guess it sucks if you want multiple big titles on the go with you. But an expensive SD isn't the only option for gaming with the dock.

No it can display 4K content at 30fps, like Netflix or other 4K videos you might have.
Games are almost certainly 1080p at best.

Would prefer not to use SD cards if possible, thanks.
Would hate to keep track of what games are on each card.

Are those specs for the portable or when docked?

As far as we know, this is fake as shit.
All people have guesses for are what the old dev units use to carry and even then none if those rumors where reliably confirmed.
Early devkit yeah, maybe, except for RAM which is usually more than the retail unit and there's no way that this thing has less than 4GB. Final kits though? I don't think so. And we've heard several rumors about specs in the current kits being basically the same as the retail unit, so why would we hear about early kits in late october if the final ones (or close to that) have been around since september?
So yeah, i'm calling bullshit on this one.
You won't have to install anything here, and if you buy games in dd you can expand the memory with a cheap SD card.
That's exactly what i'm saying lol

The Specs are real in that they are an X1 Devkit specs. That is the problem. Anyone can literally go to Nvidia website and buy this exact devkit. So there is no chance this is final hardware specs.

I just hope the portable side is at least on par with the Wii U. Zelda portable footage looked rough in the video.
Really, there isn't even something change for "originality". I don't understand how is this topic still open.

Not buying this at all.
All I know and I'm happy with is that it's more powerful than the Wii U and looks to finally have some decent third party support.
