If they hold off on getting this out there when people want to buy it I think Nintendo is going to be fucked. They are already doing it with the new NES plug and play. Want to make it seem like it's a Tickle Me Elmo when it's just that they didn't make enough for launch.
They also did it with the WiiU which is one of the biggest reasons I think it has failed. |

Last console that they did before the NES Classic that sold out was the Wii and we all know how that did. It's not really Nintendos fault. They don't want to stuff the supply chain with stock that won't sell like the 3DS and Wii U as they then have to give retailers financial incentives to take more stock like games and accessesories. Conversely, if it's understocked, they can't just flick a switch and get more stock quickly, you usually need months of planning to get a slot in one of thesde factories. However, the latter is probably the better net situation for Nintendo. |

New 1080 Snowboarding too, please

Eurogamer currently rumored to be revealing some new Switch details tomorrow.
http://gonintendo.com/stories/268738...-news-tomorrow |
So Eurogamers thing is Pokemon Stars. This isn't a spin off, but you know how some Pokemons get a third version like Yellow or Platinum? It's that, except it's not coming out on 3DS and will exclusively be on the Switch instead.

Bethesda teased the stuff Nintendo showed to them at E3 for the Switch was enough to sway them to make games for the system. Also confirmed Skyrim is in development for the console.

Same source as the other rumors that are coming out, Nintendo are internally aiming for a June 16 2017 UK Breath of the Wild Switch release. Aiming Wii U for June 23 2017 UK.
Also, there will be a Xenoblade Chronicles X port. |
So in Ubis 30th anniversary video, Mario, Luigi and Toad were shown as Rabbids.

Another game was recently announced for the Switch although came at the cost of the Wii U losing a game. The creator of Stardew Valley announced a Switch port is currently in development but had to drop the Wii U version as a trade off.
http://www.gamespot.com/articles/sta.../1100-6445817/ Both EA and Take Two recently reconfirmed they have plans to support the Switch with games although EA implied at possibly pulling an Ubisoft by withholding a game or possibly games till the console hits a certain number for userbase. Quote:

Switch rumored to be using standard USB cables (USB 3.1 based) to charge the system instead of requiring system specific charger cables like with past Nintendo portable devices.

According to recent reports, From Software is currently rumored to be working on a Dark Souls III port for the Switch but are also acting like EA and Ubisoft in regards to not likely going to release it unless the console sells a certain amount. Both EA and Ubisoft recently hinted at holding back games in development until the Switch reaches a certain userbase for sales.

With all this third party support irs getting, this has the potential to be the best Nintendo console since the SNES.
If the Virtual Console is morw comprehensive, and doesn't have the glacial release pacing of the WiiU, then it's going to be all the sweeter. |

There does still seem to be that buzz about it that should help a lot. I still can't help but think that missing this holiday is going to hurt it out of the gate though. |

Also, here is Jimmy Fallon describing the Switch at the Knicks/Cavs game, whilst wearing Miyamoto's ID.

Man I wouldn't put too much stock in that demo for the Switch on Fallon but god damn does Zelda look pretty.
|
Color me intrigued on the Switch, but I want to see everything else around the Switch (online functionality, the OS, the ease of switching controllers and control styles) before I'm in on buying one. I'm hopeful the January Nintendo direct will start showing more of that stuff.
The few games they've shown off look nice, for sure. |

Speculation going around the net involves the shirt Miyamoto wore for the Tonight Show might have been an actual teaser for an upcoming Mario project or something related to it.

Someone speculated that it's a Mario World as in like the real world, so Samurai levels in the Japan world and other things around the touring theme.

Mushroom Kingdom Warriors.

Thought Cool King's post was also a link.....
