Nintendo Switch Announced
It's the handheld/console in one. Uses real controllers, or clipped to the side, or has a stand so you can have the controller seperate in portable form. Fucking awesome.
Shown: Zelda Skyrim Remastered NBA New Mario Mario Kart with King Boo and double stacked items Splatoon Coming March 2017. https://youtu.be/f5uik5fgIaI |
WTF its a fucking psp. You've been able to plug those into TVs for years. How is this exactly innovative?
This is the first nintendo console in history that I will not purchase. I'm done. |

This pisses me off SO MUCH!

nah jk
|
I don't think portable gaming on what amounts to a 7 inch (?) tablet will be that popular.
|
It's confirmed that it is using a custom NVidia processor.

Now we get a weak system with no innovation. It's going to flop just like the WiiU did. |
It seems cool but I'd be more excited if I still played games.
|
Is it small enough to be considered a handheld? Can I fit it in my pocket?

Now I just don't need to buy a home console and a handheld, it's all in one and much more powerful than another clamshell handheld could be. That's fucking sweet to me. It's a massive leap for their portable platfoem which is the most exciting part for me. |
LOL you said Pokemans.
|
It's pretty cool.
I'm pretty sure I'll be buying it and I'm looking forward to finding out more information on it. |
Fuck this reveal trailer. I don't want to be sold on "cool factor" or clicking noises.
Need intel on shit like undocked battery life, actual confirme launch titles (not the superimposed shit to show people playing a game, game format (carts? Discs? Hybrids? Download only?) Do like the "big boy" controller, though. Looks like the 360 gamepad had sex with a Wavebird, and they made an attractive offspring that would actually be comfortable and intuitive to hold and use. Docking those paddle things to a pad for that sort-of controllerseems a bit wonky and/or pointless though. |
Carts. It shows people using carts.
It comes out in March. There's plenty of time for all that. They just wanted to confirm the core concept before the investors meeting. They apparently wanted to do a full reveal last month, but Mario wasn't where they wanted it before doing a full show off. |
Where do I pre-order?

ADDED TO MY WISH LIST

Was there a Mario Adventure game like Galaxy for the 3DS?

So is this the NX thing? I want this for Zelda since the Wii U never gave me a new game. I don't need the WII U for this right? Probably going 5o buy it since Nintendo still rocks.
|
So let's talk about the death of the 3DS...
|
Found it really interesting EA was among the list of companies working on Switch games considering the feud they had with Nintendo over the Wii U. Just getting sports games from them would already be a huge improvement for Nintendo.

Looks pretty sexy to me.

The rumours for months have been ports of Smash Wii U, Mario Kart and Splatoon for launch window, so I'm glad this confirms some of it. But both Splatoon and MK look different enough that there's at least some changes to make them different, which is good, because they'll probably want full price again.
Hoping there are more Wii U classics too. Not for me, but I know a lot of people who will be interested in this who never got a Wii U. |
While it was shown during the debut trailer, Bethesda is currently not confirming Skyrim Remastered will be getting released for the Switch. Although they did confirm they are currently working on Switch games.

Seems PrettyCool, but I don't really play games anymore, and can't seem to get back into them no matter how hard I try/want to....... |
I lost interest in handhelds when I was about 15 and most of Nintendo's focus since then has been pushing the handheld. I'm sure I'll get this a year or two after its release but I'm not that stoked
|
If the rumors about a main series Pokemon game developed by Gamefreak coming to this thing are true then I'll be picking it up for sure first chance I get. Any word on the price tag?

Nothing concrete on price, but most sources guess $300 or under. |

Nintendo announced physical 3DS and Wii U games will not be compatible for the Switch but digital games could end up being made compatible during the Switch's life.

Looks cool. I'm not big into gaming either. Still play the PS2 from time to time. Having good sports games for Nintendo like NBA 2K and Madden would be great in my opinion. Feel like this can at least compete with XBox and PlayStation better than the Wii did.
