Unlike most people, upon hearing the news of a main series Pokemon game for the Switch, my excitement for the upcoming games died. I would be fine if they put a side game on the Switch but at this point, I really don't want a main game for multiple reasons.
Firstly, the complete lack of numbers. I have a friend, let's call him Cheezus. Cheezus wants the Switch, and because Cheezus did not preorder the Switch, he has waited almost 4 months unable to get one. There is a serious lack if Nintendo Switch Consoles, and as someone still using a wii U and a First Gen 3ds, I can't afford, or find a Switch.
Secondly, while a minor thing, it still bothers me. We have to go back to using one screen instead of two. This is one of the most underrated things in Pokemon Series and I don't think people really understand how awesome it is. Let's take me, for example. I am Lazy. I hate having to press a button to view a map or use online features when I can just use these with a glance, or a tap. Again, its minor, but still.
Thirdly, the fact that, honestly, the Switch is not mobile. I fly, and travel, alot. I go to Hong-Kong quite often, and it's a 14-16 hour plane ride. A Switch, with one battery pack, could last 2 hours, while my 3ds, at max brightness, lasts more than 4 times that, before dying, where I can sleep for the rest of the ride. If you have a 3ds you could take it on a road trip, but the Switch couldn't last a Plane trip from Washington to Texas. (Around 4 hours)
There are a few more reasons I want to go over, but it is 3 in the morning and I need sleep, so goodnight good people of the internet, and remember the difference between their they're and there!
