Chewster 09/18/18 10:26:49 PM #52:	Can you easily use controllers wirelessly for PC though? Sure, it's easy with USB, but I don't know how I'd use a wireless 360 controller without some kind of adapter. I also don't want to play on my computer monitors at my desk. I want to sit on a couch with a big TV. And yeah, I know it's pretty easy to hook up to your TV nowadays too, but I have a desktop and it isn't really near my TV. Then even if you have a good setup, it's still more work to actually get a game loaded up in comparison to using a device that has interfaces optimized for playing games, especially if we're talking older consoles where there's no OS and it just loads the game straight up. <cite>Chewster posted [p:909023980] in Switch >...

Sure, it's easy with USB, but I don't know how I'd use a wireless 360 controller without some kind of adapter. The XBox controller require an adapter (pretty cheap, only $20). All other wireless controllers (PS4, etc) can be used with bluetooth (and a bit of software, which is really easy to setup). I also don't want to play on my computer monitors at my desk. I want to sit on a couch with a big TV. And yeah, I know it's pretty easy to hook up to your TV nowadays too, but I have a desktop and it isn't really near my TV. My desktop is hooked up to my TV, in fact I don't own any computer monitors, never have since I started PC gaming again seriously 11 years ago. You can use wireless mouse and keyboard to use the computer from the couch/recliner. Then even if you have a good setup, it's still more work to actually get a game loaded up in comparison to using a device that has interfaces optimized for playing games, especially if we're talking older consoles where there's no OS and it just loads the game straight up. Depends on the game, some games I agree (it took me forever to get the PC version of the original Resident Evil running on my Windows 10 computer, and I still haven't figured out how to get RE2 running). Other games are no different, just double click on the icon and it works. One of the main reasons I switched to PC exclusively was because disk swapping sucks, and consoles at the time didn't have the digital support they do today. Even though that has been somewhat remedied, everything comes out for PC anyways so really no reason for me to switch back. --- I am a senior software engineer.

Never lose backwards compatibility d'ohoho Yeah occasionally you run into an issue where an old game doesn't work well on a new operating system but that can often be worked around with community help. Unlike a new console which just doesn't have the physical hardware to run a certain game or controller format. Which happens pretty much every console generation, requiring you to keep half a dozen different consoles lying around and hooked up. On the other hand I can switch back and forth between games that came out 20 years apart with a couple mouse clicks. Chewster posted...

Chewster 09/21/18 2:13:53 AM #95:	In case it needs to be spelled out: I prefer to play my games on a big TV, sitting on a couch. My PC is hooked up in a desk setup with its own monitors and a chair. It's not all that convenient to move a big desktop PC to be near my TV, and leaving it at my desk to use with the TV would require purchasing additional accessories. I don't want to use the big TV as a full-time monitor for non-gaming purposes so moving it permanently isn't a great option either. Is it really so fucking hard to understand that other people have different preferences for how they like to play games and your "superior" console doesn't facilitate every single one of them <cite>Chewster posted [p:909163632] in Switch >...

Chewster 09/21/18 2:20:40 AM #96:	Maybe an example to drive the point home: My Switch + dock weighs a few pounds and fits in one hand and has two wires coming out of it. It can fit on my entertainment center. It's very easy to move it to different TVs. My PC weighs like 20 pounds, is too big to fit on the entertainment center so would probably have to go on the floor, pushed back so it doesn't stick out too much, making the ports for the cables hard to reach, and there would need to be way more than two of them plugged in.

_AdjI_ 09/21/18 10:02:25 AM #100:	DPsx7 posted... once you buy a console it doesn't go bad. It still plays games years later. That's no less true of PC's, especially now that consoles predominantly have optical and hard drives (and therefore moving parts that can fail) instead of being solid state. Hardware wears out, but until it does, it'll keep playing games, no matter what sort of system it is. DPsx7 posted... And the games WILL work, none of this messing with compatibility crap like PC has. It's very rare to have compatibility issues with any game made for an OS later than Windows 98. Certainly, XP onward tends to work with no hassle, and even older stuff can be playable with a little fiddling. Meanwhile, no amount of (legal) fiddling will allow me to play a GC game on my Switch (short of buying a port that they release). There's no messing with compatibility with consoles because there's no compatibility to mess with. Comparing console backwards compatibility to PC is laughable. <cite>_AdjI_ posted [p:909175576] in Switch >...
