I hope the system has an IR port for super quick and easy multi-system portable multiplayer. Anyone who's played a Pokemon since Black/White should know how great it is just pointing your systems at eachother for a couple seconds is rather than doing a lobby type thing to link up.

I assume it's WiFi direct. Nintendo has been street passing for years, one thing they do amazingly well is see and connect to new devices. Like really well.

Yeah, I live in a sod house I made myself based on the plans in a Great-Depression era government pamphlet, but I'm not gonna get mad when the Switch needs to be plugged in to a wall outlet. I accept that my needs are unusual.

He didn't realize at the time the individual joycons could be used as controllers and didn't really click with him why he could take them off and put them on, so he didn't hold them that much. He did say holding the whole thing together was very comfortable, and he also held the pro controller which he said was the most comfortable controller he had ever held, with his previous most comfortable being the Xbox One controller. His segment of the commercial didn't have the joy con grip, so he never held that one.

Laura Kate Dale says the screen has capacitive multitouch capability, but Nintendo is focusing on making standard controls up front and center in marketing.

So either the experience is crippled when docked by the lack of a touchscreen, or the device has a touchscreen no developer will actually use?

Or it workes like every console ever, but also you can tap things when holding the tablet like you naturally want to do in 2016 when holding a screen. perhaps you do want to pull it out to build your mario maker level, or navigate the store. Praise Cthulhu no forced to build around swipe games! Sorry for your loss.

Thats what they say about trump and the response I have is the same, "this is what they always have done and its worked or not, and now is a culturally "right" time for it to work." Nintendo didnt turn into marketing geniuses after they couldnt explain the WiiU was a new console last time. They were so traumatized they named their upgraded 3ds NEW when it was just an upgrade. They dont know exactly what they are doing.

Guy Goodbody posted:If you don't know much about how commercials are made and you see the Switch ad, I can understand being concerned that the poor frame rate on the portable screen in Zelda would be worrying. But once you understand that there was nothing on the screen when it filmed, it was just a prop and the footage was added later by computers, that should be the end of the discussion Haha loser, just listening to this interview. All the hardware was real. Not a prop.

I can't imagine games being crippled without touch. They'll likely be a second thought, like a lot of 3DS games now. There was a time when touch was integral on 3DS games, as touch was centric to its branding. But you look at a lot of the core games now and developers aren't stressing to integrate touch into games.

Nintendo employees came while you were sleeping, drugged you and used a syringe to steal your irony and delete your memory of the event.

If a lot of mobile games get ported to NX, some of those might specifically require the system to be undocked to play, so that the touchscreen can be used. But there weren't a lot of major Wii U or 3DS games where touch was vital, so I doubt that losing touch when playing on your TV screen is going to be a dealbreaker. Even Mario Maker wouldn't fare too badly-- a d-pad can be used to navigate a grid just fine.

Anyway I don't understand why why Nintendo made a posh switch trailer when they could Just show a grandma playing solitarie and just say in big bold letters "no ads, no forced updates, no xbox live login needed" and sell millions of consoles.
