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Are they doing the Wii U thing with tons of out of date third party games?

If it gets a p5 port I'm in immediately

But seriously, gaming on the go is how I do 90% of my gaming. This is perfect for someone like me.

Oops sorry. It went by so quick that at 1:18 or so while it is showing the 3rd person view of Skyrim, I thought that was Witcher 3.

Were those framedrops/framerate issues on the handheld during the Zelda portion or am I losing it?

Looked like it. That thing's going to have halved framerate in handheld mode. At least. Given the action-y games they showed off, that's probably not a good thing. They couldn't even make the thing look good in their announcement trailer.

It's a technical nightmare. There are so many parts. Also, loving no one's going to lug around a WiiU tablet-sized "handheld" more than like... to the bathroom. Which, if you're into taking a poo poo while collecting stars or shines or whatever, that's cool. But I can't imagine anyone actually taking that thing out anywhere. No screen protection. Where would you put it?

Also that might be their worst controller ever. At least the default one. Four buttons instead of a dpad so, when you're playing half-assed multiplayer modes that don't need a camera control, you still have buttons. Fighting games are right out. At least they showed off one that looks a little better. Hopefully it actually has some heft to it this time around.

I really need to see how well the games perform when in handheld mode before I can really get excited about it. If the thing is capable of performing at 60 while portable, at least most of the time, that system is gonna be incredible.

Sadly I think this is going to more up to the developer then the machine so the first year is probably going to be a bit rocky. A bunch of dev might error more on mobile side then the home console side.

It's visual feedback when the sword makes an impact just like a bunch of the other 3D Zelda's.

Might get one. I'm dumb.

Depending on the price I might just get one at launch, because the only thing that excites me more than playing Breath of the Wild is playing it handheld.
