This week, I will talk about my new console, the Nintendo Switch. I will be talking about the games I bought with it, and why I bought the console in the first place.
First, I had several reasons for purchasing the Nintendo Switch. One of them is just getting a new console. Over the past couple of months, I contemplated getting a new console. The reason for this was that our old Xbox 360 doesn’t support the new games. Around the time of the introduction of the Xbox One, Microsoft and other companies stopped making games for the old console. The reason for this was probably to move on with the time, but now I couldn’t play any of the new games, which required new hardware.
I could have bought the Xbox One. However, the Switch also has some appealing features which I will explain. One, the Switch was portable. If you live with me for any amount of time, you will quickly realize I like to spend a lot of time on my room. Since the Switch is portable, I can bring it with me without needing to set up a tv, speakers, etc. Two, some of my other friends have the Switch. From what I can tell, most people in our school have PS4, then the Switch, and finally the Xbox One. Almost nobody has the Xbox One and none of my close friends have a PS4.
Secondly, I will talk about the games I bought for the switch and why. I bought 2 initial games. The first game was Moster Hunter Generations Ultimate, which I will refer to as MHGU from now on. MHGU was actually one of the many games I wanted to get. However, with how little money I had, I need to choose one. The main premise of the games is to hunt giant monsters, but I will go into deeper detail when this game gets its own blog. The second game I bought was Touhou Kobuto V. Will admit this game was kind of an impulse buy, but I don’t regret it. It also only costed $25, which when compared to the $80 of the popular games, isn’t much. Suffice to say, I don’t regret getting the console or the games. However, there is one game that Isn’t owned by me which I play quite often. The game in question being Puyo Puyo Tetris. Out of all the games, I probably spent the second most amount of time playing Tetris. However, I didn’t purchase it, daddy did. When I first decided to get this console, I decided I would pay for it with my own money. Then daddy offered to subsidize some amount of money for the console, but I refused. The reason for this Isn’t because I want to keep the console to myself, but instead have insurance. Unlike my phone or my laptop, I wanted full control over the Switch. Unfortunately, since Tetris was downloaded off the eStore, my control over the Switch has been compromised. In the future, I will most like give daddy the 45 something dollars to pay off the Tetris game.
Overall, I enjoy my new Switch. I don’t regret buying any of the games and look forward, to playing with my friends. I find it nice to own a device that I have full reign over without any pull from anyone else. In the end, I hope to get all the games I wanted, but that’s going to take some time.
