For weeks now I've been debating about getting either a Wii U (mainly due to many games I want to play) or a Switch. The Wii U was looking good1 but I've been reading some things about the Switch that have made me change my mind.
The main thing is being able to transition between home console and portable console. I could play Breath of the Wild on the train to and from work as well as after I get home and over the weekend. The main disadvantage at the moment is not having a Virtual Console to be able to download games from past systems. I've read that it's definitely being released but not sure when. It's quite possible they might announce something about it at E3 in June.
I think if I was to get a Switch, playing Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe would take up most of my time anyway, making the Virtual Console something to look forward to.
I know I said before I wasn't interested in the Switch, but after hearing things, reading a bit more into it and watching Breath of the Wild being played on YouTube, the Switch has edged in front of the Wii U.
Now to find the best deal.
The range of games/Virtual Console games. 2. The concept of the GamePad
