Agreed - They played with the corniest actions and looks on their faces.

While I agree with that, to me, they would need to come out with new 1st party games a little more often. I have a WiiU and with so few titles compared to the other systems, it collects alot of dust. I am getting the switch regardless of what they announce, just for to get the best version of the new Zelda. I just wonder if having those titles will be enough for it to be a success for the masses.

I would think $299.99 would be the spot but idk.

I don't see how they could sell it for $399.99 with the PS4 Pro being that price point.

At $299.99, I have no issue of getting it day one.

Re: Nintendo Switch Announced, Scheduled to Release March 2017

We hear this first party thing every time Nintendo launches a console. Then it doesn't play out. I don't buy Nintendo for third party though so it doesn't matter to me. I just wouldn't get too excited about that yet.

Cartridge base kind of leads me to believe this won't be much better than Wii U and probably won't get close to one/PS4 performance wise. Hopefully I'm wrong. Then when you factor in Scorpio launching the same year it's hard for me to say I'll buy this day 1. I'll wait for the exclusives to pile up first.

Re: Nintendo Switch Announced, Scheduled to Release March 2017

Would have been day one for me if it had backward compatibility. Likely wait a while for it to build up a library and see how third party support pans out.

Detachable controllers look nearly worthless as someone who thought the wiimotes sideways were too small and uncomfortable.

Expecting $299 with TV dock. Cheap controllers and LCD taped to a brick with few moving parts.

This x1000. I was really happy with my WiiU purchase as my son and I would play it a ton, but I really REALLY missed my sports sims. Hopefully this brings them back.

Also, is there a camera on this thing?!? My buddy was asking me that a couple hours ago, and then Nintendo's mobile strategy came up.

Could Pokemon Go be on this thing?
Could the new Mario run game be on this?

Someone on a different board mentioned how it looked like the Nvidia tablet. Things are starting to make more and more sense slowly here (Nintendo's mobile strategy that has dragged out, the Nvidia chipset).

Seems weird a bunch of people would be looking at a little screen playing with tiny controllers. If I get a Switch, I won't be playing like that. Hopefully them combining the 2 doesn't limit what they could have done for the big screen.


Agreed. I thought they were going to go away from the game pad idea and try to make a legit console. This seems like it may force 3ds owners to buy this too. I can't see them supporting both. Not sure if that's a great move.
