First Pokemon S&M and now Nintendo Switch. I think Nintendo has a problem.

This has potential, but I hope the transition from TV to portable to be more seamless than the clunky Wii U.

The third party support sounds awesome (over 505 games or something). It had EA listed but not BioWare on the dev list, so I dunno if that rules out ME:A and DA:4 or not.

Would like to see how it handles online as there previous systems have been behind the competitors which as hurt them when dealing with 3rd party companies.

Mac Walters confirmed on Twitter that MEA is only coming to PC, Xbox One, PS4 Pro and PS4.  I think it's too powerful for the Switch. Most likely sports games from EA. |

We have no idea what the specs of the Switch are but most rumours have it at just under the PS4/XBox One but by how much? Lower than PC Min specs.? Or right now they just want to focus on getting the game out on existing consoles first then port it to Switch? Or they want to see if the system sells well before committing the resources (ME3 did not do well on Wii U so they feel the game is not meant for a Nintendo system.... but again releasing a game that relies on playing the previous two which are not available on the same system may have something to do with that). In the end not enough information to say 100% the reason (My money is that EA is being cautious as there games did not sell well on Wii and Wii U and they quickly dropped support for both consoles.) |

I love the fact that games for the Switch are released on a cartridge in stead of a disc.
Specwise I know the Switch uses an Nvidia Tegra chip, but it is unclear which one.
Could swear I saw a trailer of someone playing Skyrim on it...., Nintendo partnered with several
companies such as Capcom, Bethesda and EA amongst others.

This looks pretty awesome, especially if you travel a lot for work or what have you. Hopefully the price tag won't be through the roof! I plan to get one if my salary adjustment comes through lol

Well, I recently bought a wii to play mario kart as couch mp (at the reasonable price of a cheeseburger and a shake), but other than that, Nintendo consoles have been way off my radar since the n64. Mostly because of the gimmick controllers, but also because their first party games just don't do much for me, other than mario kart mp.
This is the first one to maybe break this pattern. It actually looks like they've dialed down the motion and touch bullshit.

Games, specs, and price will be unveiled January 12th.
That teaser trailer got me excited, but this brought me back down. Nintendo's marketing strategy is so strange this time around. That only gives them 3 months to expose and appeal the Switch to the masses in a non-holiday sales quarter. It's like Nintendo is so afraid of failure, they're deliberately holding back and being uber duper super careful. They don't need that....they need bold to survive.

No pre orders for the classic, had people lined up outside of stores only to have 4-6 stocked per store. And they say that they only plan 2 million units of the Switch to be shipped to the US. What is Reggie thinking? Can't he negotiate with the Japanese head????? |

Please let the Switch get ports of Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros 4, and a couple other games as complete editions with all DLC...

The Zelda trailer was so good. But 300$ for the console, 60$ for Zelda, and another 70$ or 80$ for a good controller doesn't sound all that nice. And then you have to buy an HDMI dock set too for another 90$? Online play is a subscription and voice chat is done via phone through an app (you have to pay for as well). I was pretty set on buying a Switch and Zelda but it looks like it will be much more expensive than I thought. I dunno I might just wait until the holiday for the Switch and buy Zelda for the Wii U.
edit: apparently the HDMI dock is included but still 430$ plus tax is more than a ps4 slim 500gb with two or three games. Wii-U version of Zelda looked really meh to me too the graphics seemed blurry and the framerate was really choppy.

The Switch looks really disappointing, just based on the reveal and the info released since then.

Yeah, I agree with a fair bit of the video--the concept sounds great, I like the idea of it, but the prices for everything is a little hard to swallow, the online system sounds atrocious, and even the initial game lineup doesn't sound great. Like, this is the first Zelda game I'm kind of tempted to play, I could maybe see myself trying out Mario if someone else has it, and Arms looks like it could be fun to play in multiplayer, but that's about it. I feel like it could be good, it has potential (I never thought of the potential indie market for it), but it's definitely going to be more of a Birthday/Christmas thing for me, if I even buy it at all.
As for Andromeda showing up on the Switch--yeah, that seems next to impossible, considering what they're talking about in terms of gameplay, without some massive downgrades. Hell, I'm not even sure if Inquisition is possible--after all, the stated reason Bioware didn't port The Descent and Trespasser to 360/PS3 was that those systems couldn't handle it. I think at most, if they ever decide to remaster the Mass Effect original trilogy, that seems doable to port on the Switch--and the idea of having one of my favorite franchises available to me on the go is pretty tempting.
