Thou Shalt Not Covet Thy Neighbor's Exclusives

I realized I had space on my computer today so I installed Stellaris again, and hope to play it a little later. But at the same time, I'm kind of pissed I need to play it on my computer - why can't I play it on my Switch?  Though it is not without it's flaws, as far as I'm concerned, console gaming is sort of perfect with the Switch in that I can either play at my TV - or anywhere, without skipping a beat. While the Switch is certainly getting its share of games as time goes on, every game I want to play I end up wishing I had on the Switch. It's kind of a fucked up curse. I look at my other consoles and say to myself: "Why can't you be more like the Switch?" I end up wishing Dragon Quest VIII wasn't on 3DS, but Switch. The same for the new Final Fantasy IX and even Final Fantasy 12, which I have also been playing. If I could play these on Switch, I think I would be more productive with them. 

Anyway, forgive this 1st world lament. I'm just sayin'.

Yup, I know exactly what you mean. I was playing FF IX today and wishing I could play it on the Switch.

I end up thinking like this for the 3DS/DS games. I want to play them on the big screen though, as I don't care for the mobility.

Yeah, exclusivity means you have to pick the right console in order to be on the winning team ... Luckily I am on the winning team this time with PS4, but still.

DQ VIII on Switch. Now that would be cool. That game needs a big screen. I'm not excited about the 3DS version.

it's not bad, but it does lack the symphonic soundtrack.

When is Samus Returns coming to Switch?  I would much rather play it there.

I have this curse, I keep wishing "this" or "that" was on Switch. I espcially wish FF9 was on the Switch. Overall Im just glad its getting games. I was worried it would be another Wii U fiasco at first but its proving to be quite the opposite. Im playing Xenoverse 2 on the Switch and enjoying it so far.

I have yet to get a switch. I'm waiting on Mario Odyssey for that. Rumor has it that there will be a special edition console for it.
