![]() ![]() The Nintendo Switch, on the other hand, comes with less on-board storage than the PlayStation 4. Besides, it adds more stuff to your entertainment center. You could also just plug in an external hard drive to the PlayStation 4 through one of its USB ports, but if you accidentally unplug the hard drive, or the system shuts off suddenly, you're at risk of losing your data. You can upgrade the hard drive inside the PlayStation 4 if you want more built-in storage, but it's not a quick process, and it requires taking apart your console and putting it back together (gulp). ![]() Storage space fills up fast on the PlayStation 4, where great-looking games command large file sizes. So unlike the PlayStation 4's controllers, which can basically produce quieter and louder vibrations, the precision and nuance of HD Rumble adds much more to the overall experience. Nintendo says HD Rumble could let you feel virtual ice cubes being dropped into a virtual glass. In practice, HD Rumble is similar to the feedback you can get from your iPhone's or Apple Watch's haptic motor when you use the 3D Touch feature - it can feel like a small and subtle tap, or a bigger shake. Twenty years later, HD Rumble in the Nintendo Switch uses a high-definition haptic feedback motor - actually the same one used in Facebook's Oculus Touch controllers for virtual reality - to make the controllers not just shake, but give off different kinds of feedback. Nintendo basically put the rumble feature on the gaming map back in 1997 when it introduced the Rumble Pak for the Nintendo 64, which let the controller vibrate when certain things happen, like if you shot a weapon, or took damage. Of the many innovations packed into the Nintendo Switch Joy-Con, including a camera that can detect shapes and even heat, is a new rumble feature called "HD Rumble." Though PlayStation Plus also offers free games every month and some nice deals in the PlayStation Store, the entry price is still a big factor for many people, and one year of PlayStation Plus would cost the equivalent of three years of Nintendo Switch Online. PlayStation Plus, Sony's paid online subscription service for the PlayStation 4, costs $60 a year. Still, it's more accessible than other online services: Nintendo Switch Online will just cost $20 per year (or $35 a year for a family membership that supports up to 7 others), and will support multiplayer experiences and regularly add older Nintendo games you can play for free. Come September, though, a paid service called Nintendo Switch Online will change that. Right now, playing Nintendo Switch games online with friends is totally free. And Nintendo Switch Online is coming soon to the Nintendo Switch. On the PlayStation 4, it's PlayStation Plus. Most game consoles have some sort of online subscription service: On the Xbox, it's Xbox Live Gold. Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders. ![]()
