Gonna say, I'm not sure any parent wants to buy a system where the super-expensive poo poo which you almost certainly can't buy separately is designed to be taken out in public and contains multiple detachable bits.

Why is the name bad? The name is fine. It even partially describes it. Also, there's nothing else to confuse it with.

The battery life on this is almost guaranteed to be atrocious, hopefully I can buy some sort of battery pack to keep it alive if I want to play it on a plane or some poo poo.

I couldn't help but notice all the situations and kinds of people in the trailer were unconvincing to actually use a Nintendo Switch

Were those framedrops/framerate issues on the handheld during the Zelda portion or am I losing it?
they looked about the same as Vita's framerate issues but with a much higher internal res

but i'm also willing to give benefit of the doubt as the trailer was filmed at 24fps and i dunno what the refresh rate on the handheld is gonna be

Games that I saw, some are shocking:

New Zelda
New Mario Kart
New Mario
Witcher 3
Skyrim
NBA 2k16

COuld it be the 3rd party support will put them back into the limelight? And to add to that, the same graphical portability of the home system????

Jesus that would rock.

Playing Witcher 3 at 60 fps on a handheld. Lol yeah ok

I'm talking about Nintendo's first party stuff, I have Witcher 3 on the PC I don't need it on a console in general, it can't look better. If I can play Smash or Mario or Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Threes at 60fps while in portable mode I'll be extremely happy

Guys I'm doing it wrong, I'm excited about a video game thing and have no snark or pessimism, hype train choo choo.

I think the name's way better than Wii, it's catchy and says what it does. Looks really fun. And Splatoon, Mario Kart, and new Mario for Switch revealed in the ad?! I'm officially an early adopter of the switch.

It lived up to the unrealistic hype I had for it. I'm not sure anything's ever done that before. It literally does all the things I wanted it to do, and it looks really cool.

I just hope it doesn't have performance issues or a bad framerate c'mon :pray:

The Switch looks dope as gently caress. I'm in.

I kind of adore the multiple different ways those little attachments can be used as controllers. And no lovely controller gimmick? God drat Nintendo, you might just be learning something.

Looks like we can expect ports of I Am Setsuna, probably a port of #FE and maybe a late P5 port... probably Dark Souls too considering From and B-N.

Are they doing the Wii U thing with tons of out of date third party games?

Looks like no touch capability, so 3DS backwards compatibility seems to be out of the question. Still, it looks great.

God drat it Nintendo - the only last thing you need to do is place the drat buttons on the controller like the XBox and PS4 so I do not have to remap everything and we are golden.

I mean out of date sure but having it portable might go a long way
