Yes!, because less games makes the switch a better product. I swear, some of you need to check yourselves. 0____o

Do you not remember the WiiU years with people screaming "quality over quantity" while arguing it was great the WiiU library was mostly tumbleweeds?

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.

Obviously not, but there are games that probably deserve more attention for not being on switch than this one...specially after that mass effect 3 wiiu fiasco EA did.

I'm a pretty big Switch fan and fan of Nintendo in general.

But post like this make me want to renounce my allegiance.

Nintendo fans have been the punching bag of the industry for several years. Now that Nintendo has had some success it doesn't meant we need to turn into jerks.

I agree, man. Maybe Mass Effect: Andromeda didn't turn out as well as everyone wanted, but I'm sure there are folks who own a NS who would have loved to play the game on the system. It's still a bummer that it didn't get released on the system. More games is always better than none.

This is an amazing fucking bump. Switch fans are just too much right now.
Something tells me you actually like these kind of posts so you have a nice excuse to generalize people for the sake of console warz. Doesn't make you look much better tbh.

Better launch it when Audromeda 3 ships... and release the whole trilogy elsewhere for the price of one.

But I suspect this is most likely performance related.

Hahaha. My exact thoughts. That is still among the most mind-boggling decisions in gaming in recent memory. I can only imagine one hand had no idea what the other was doing.

Laughing at dumb GAF shit is a terrific distraction from things of actual consequence. Someone digging up a months old thread to stick it to a corporation for not supporting their platform of choice is hilarious. Console wars couldn't matter less to me because they're just generic plastic boxes.

I can live without it, ME never was my cup a tea for starters.

The OG Trilogy on Switch would probably sell a lot though.

I never said it's not hilarious, but i can laugh at his actions without the need to generalize a whole bunch of people by saying "Switch fans are too much right now." Acting like this is the norm for people who like the newest console comes across as disingenuous console warz bs.

Wow, $10 cheaper than Street Fighter 2!

And I'm trying to figure out what Capcom half-assed phoned in over price port have to do with EA and EA's Switch support. We have EA basing their decision on Mass Effect Andromeda on Wii U's Mass Effect 3 performance when it luach around the same time at the same price as the Mass Effect Trilogy on the PS3 and Xbox 360. There were several poster in this very thread jumping up and down at the prospect of the Switch is going to fail due to the lack of Western Third parties.

oh boy, remember when ps4 fans were too much, with their 8gb ddr3? Lots of good times.

The beginning of this gen was pretty hilarious. Hell, we even had a MS exec flip out arguing the Xbone was not weaker than the PS4 then ghost. I bet the early PS3 days were amazing for people melting down when it became apparent the 360 was legit.
 
Heh. I thought there was at least another quote from EA about (the lack of) a possibility of the game coming to the Switch. In either case, a Switch version wouldn't have saved the game from being a financial disappointment. At least in this case, they can't blame the Switch/Nintendo for that.

By having fewer games, my Switch remains pure.

You shouldn't pledge "allegiance" to a corporation.

Hmm I didn't expect Nintendo fans to like Bioware stuff ��

"Nintendo fan" isn't a race (though for some perhaps a religion). I am my friend do a youtube show about Nintendo stuff, we are pretty big Nintendo fans. But we both like Mass Effect. And he plays all the other Bioware stuff. Being a fan of something does not necessarily exclude everything else.
