Nintendo Switch Thread (previously NX)

I just searched youtube for Nintendo Switch reaction and found a video of the most irritating human being on the planet.

I suddenly don't want the Switch anymore

hopefully the battery lasts longer than the 20 mins you get out of the wii-u tablet

Nintendo you have my attention. 


Kind of hoping t will work with DS/3DS cards out of the box. Granted that's more of a pipe dream.

Surprised you'd want it at all. What part of this looks good? The oversized "handheld"? The awkward looking controller? The tiny screens for "multiplayer"?

Interesting how they try to market it to young adults.

Also interesting will be to see if the Switch's digital business model will be the same as with the Wii U. ie how difficult will it be to recover your content in case something happens to your console.

What price do peeps here think it will launch at?

[Digi.k]

how many threads are there? T__T

The previous NX leaks on the designs were pretty much spot on.
The other major leak was that it had no optical drive and looks like that is correct too, in the video it looks like the games are on SD card style game cartridges.

Nintendo is using Nvidia hardware, I don't expect it to be cheap. Unless Nintendo sent yakuza to demand a sweetheart deal.

The multiplayer using the breakaway nubs seems awkward.
I mean, the sides are asymmetrical. That's bound to be weird unless you exclusively use 1 of the controllers.
also, how much of a pain in the ass will it be to replace the different pieces?
It is nintendo after all, kids are gonna f*ck that shit up.

big plus, no mention that I saw of shitty motion controls.

I f*ckin love it...

I feel a distinct lack of any emotion after this reveal. This excites me about as much as Apple launching a new iPhone.
