Can you use the Switch as an extra controller for Super Smash Bros for Switch?

Laura Kate Dale had a good article on LPVG explaining how she got her information and what information that wasn't in the promo video that she believes to be true based on which sources. Also, she basically confirms Emily Rogers sources on hardware are rock solid, and different sources than hers.

This is probably old news, but I noticed the players in the video for Mario Kart were drifting, and those joy-cons have to have shoulder buttons right where they connect to the battery pack or tablet. Then again, it's just a promotional video, but this would be amazingly innovative if true.

BexGu posted:I really want people to get their hands on the Switch to see how sturdy the core unit is. If the power is going to be in the mobile tablet for a unit meant for kids I wonder how the Switch will handle being dropped, spilled on, stepped on, etc. Can the screen be easily replaced? Is there going to be a Nintendo branch screen proctor/case like for phones? It's a Nintendo console so it'll probably be built like a god drat brick.

The 3ds is sturdy as gently caress and they sell screen protectors already for both the 3ds and Wii U.

If they went as far as sticking shoulder buttons mapped to L and ZL/R and ZR on the attachment rails of each joycon, that's incredibly elegant and much better than trying to use whatever two are digging into your palm. This got me thinking and I realized that each one has as many buttons as an SNES controller - there's two shoulder buttons on each one (L/R and ZL/ZR) as well as a +/- button and a home button/whatever's on the other one that can be used as start/select. So that means you can do portable 2-player SNES VC games with no additional accessories.

wicka posted:i don't understand this complaint. handhelds haven't fit comfortably in pockets for years. it's time to throw out your cargo shorts. I'm 6'8'' so the pockets in my pants are pretty big and can hold my new 3ds just fine if I need to take it somewhere, but I didn't realize size was an issue. I haven't heard any of my friends complain about it at any rate, it's only as long as most phones are now even if it's twice as thick. Like I said though I'm a bit tall so any pockets on my pants are big.

I'm hoping we have the option of just purchasing the handheld unit separately from the base for a lower price but include the Joy-cons and a charger.

if the dock is just a power/video connector then removing it isn't going to make the device much cheaper anyway

I hope they sell extra docks. I'd drop money to have a dock set up at grandma's house so I can send the kids with this in a backpack. Hell I have a kid family room with a wiiu now and a ps4 in my adult living room. I'd love to be able to snag this and in 30 seconds be zeldaing in the other room. I want 3 docks please nintendo Bombadilillo fucked around with this message at 18:37 on Oct 21, 2016 |

Guys think there's any chance this goes over 5 hours? I know the shield tablet went up to 8 hours but it wasn't running as intensive of games. Really hoping this gets to 5 - 8 hours but thinking 2 - 4 is more realistic.

When the console is too expensive, they won't be able to remove the table and offer a home console only model. Giving us the same problem we have no with the Wii U and pricing.

I can't think of any handheld Nintendo I'd actually not mind having in my pocket currently and that includes the gameboy pocket. The thickness matters when it's over 3x phone thickness.InFlames235 posted:Guys think there's any chance this goes over 5 hours? I know the shield tablet went up to 8 hours but it wasn't running as intensive of games. Really hoping this gets to 5 - 8 hours but thinking 2 - 4 is more realistic. It'll be 2-4 but nowadays portable chargers are cheap and they'd probably sell one that would at least slow the drain and extend it to 5-8 if not better.

You can see them most clearly in the image here pointing out the game card and the one showing off the kickstand. I see that, but the people playing Mario Kart are holding them in the opposite direction, so those triggers would not be easily accessible to fingers. It seems like that maybe there are triggers where the Joy-Con connects.
