Been out of the console game for a while now and I'm leaning towards buying a Switch over waiting for a PS5 (I'll probably decide after E3), although man, it's close. I'm a little weary of the uncertainty of how it will hold up compared to the next gen and its certain absence of things like From Software/Street Fighter/future Fumito Ueda games, and Tetris Effect (I'll probably settle with the PC versions of the first two), but other than that, the selection and general spirit of the Switch seems a bit more compelling to me. Some of the perceived shortcomings, I actually consider admirable features, like the non-focus on technology/realistic graphics, the absence of things like Achievements, limited DLC, etc.
Here's the selection I'm eyeballing, in order of appreciation/interest w/ respect to buying the console:
Nintendo Switch
1. Celeste
2. Inside
3. [*] Into the Breach
4. [*] Super Mario Odyssey
5. [*] Breath of the Wild
6. [*] Breath of the Wild 2
7. [*] Metroid Prime 4 (future)
8. [*] Tetris 99 (with the DLC, can it be played w/o an online subscription now?)
9. Hollow Knight/Silk Song
10. [*] Windjammers 2 (future)
11. [*] Sayonara Wild Hearts (future)
12. [*] SNES games via Switch Online (future)
13. [*] Super Mario Maker 2
14. [*] Link's Awakening
15. Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection
16. [*] NES games via Switch Online
17. [*] Metroid Prime Trilogy (future)
18. Ikaruga
19. [*] Dark Souls
20. Limbo
21. ACA Neo Geo Releases/superior Indie selection
22. [*] Tropical Freeze
vs.
PS5
1. Celeste
2. Inside
3. [*] Street Fighter VI (future)
4. [*] Tetris Effect
5. [*] Superior media capabilities/future-proof technology
6. Hollow Knight/Silk Song
7. [*] Journey
8. [*] Bloodborne
9. [*] Dark Souls III
10. Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection
11. Ikaruga
12. [*] Shadow of the Colossus Remake
13. [*] Sekiro
14. [*] Street Fighter V
15. [*] God of War
16. Limbo
17. ACA Neo Geo Releases/inferior Indie selection
The Portal games being unavailable on either of these is..... odd.
The pipe-dream of the PS5 miraculously being fully backwards compatible would swing things in the other direction, I think.
