Fair point, but you're assuming everybody has an up to date gaming PC and wants to keep investing in keeping it up to date.

I think the Switch is particularly targeted at non-hardcore-gamers.

You can have an PS4 too, not only PC. You can be an hardcore gamers too but buying the console for one game it's for me too much waste.

I made this mistake with gran turismo on PS3... I have only the PS3 for Gran Turismo and clearly was a waste.

I can understand the hype over Zelda but like many of other game because of his content that is cheap, boring start to degrade now. See the live streaming on youtube, almost every youtube guy that stream is on the end. Two weeks after. In 1 months we will not talk more about Zelda.

Not right now. I'd argue with only a handful of casual game ports, and no sport games, that requires a 300 eurodollar investment (as opposed to 200 for a PS4/XBone), it's not a casual gamer's console.

Actually it would only make sense as a purchase right now if you're a hardcore game dying to play Zelda.

"Hardcore" gamers play Zelda? I thought they were too busy playing LoL and other "competitive" games and screaming at each other like children.
