I still need some kind of backdrop for mine, probably going to get lazy and just use some black posterboard. I may need a third case, too.

So is Twitch the best place to watch this, or is there a YouTube stream, too?

So I've been using Discord chat recently, and have the /r/NintendoSwitch channel open to chat with, but it's filled to the brim with assholes.

Does this thread or somebody in this thread have a Discord chat I could join that's less crowded? I'd like to at least be able to tell assholes they're being assholes without my post getting zipped offscreen in less than a second.

Why are people so anxious I mean we know what the thing looks like and what it can do and we know there's a new Mario and Zelda coming to it along with some games two generations old so what's the big hubbub

People want to know if Nintendo intends to totally gently caress themselves over by pricing it wrong.

Price, actual lunch date, "Available for preorder... NOW"

Also maybe a surprise Metriod/Mother 3 announcement

[Edit: also maybe specs and actual portable gameplay footage that isn't full of studio light reflections like the Jimmy Fallon spot was]

Oh nice, the nintendo.com thing is just an embed for the YouTube stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuC4YLLkqME

so right now ive convinced myself that reggie knows the value of internet hype, and he remembers that one gamecube e3 with metroid and mario and zelda, and he personally convinced the rest of nintendo that the best course of action was to make games for the switch for like two and a half years and we're about to get hit with the biggest blow your mind poo poo in gaming history

21 and 15 are the listed quantities at the two GameStops in my city so unless hype is low I'm going to be hoping for online preorders to open right as the event ends.
