Nintendo need to get back to their SNES days and build a machine MORE powerful that the competitions next machine, not AS powerful. They're not going to win over the 3rd party devs like that.

I don't think third parties really matter to Nintendo. They're quite content going it alone.

I'm intrigued by the possibilities of a new Nintendo console, but I'm worried that all it's going to be is a WiiU-like Gamepad that can be switched to being portable.
.. Where's the "Wii" fun, Nintendo!! Just gimme more WiiSports! I was happy with that!!!!

Yep. What you said.

TBF Nintendo have never released a shit home console (the VirtualBoy was never a home console). Even the WiiU was a fantastic machine, let down by a lack of software. I've a stack of really great games for the WiiU.

Hopefully Nintendo will have learned some lessons with regards to supporting the machine with actual software this time.

Are you ready to make the Switch?

I'm not seeing anything totally revolutionary here. It's like the WiiU but done properly.

But who cares. Want!

It's very thin.
Given previous thin Nintendo devices, I'm slightly worried that the battery life will be about 10 minutes!!!

53 seconds in, the guy at the airport changes the cartridge, so that'll be our storage medium of choice, I reckon.

Not for me.

There have been times over the past couple of years when I was tempted to get a gaming tablet, this isn't any more appealing than those.

It's a handheld that you can plug into your TV. IMHO not the next big home console.

Cartridges have been rumoured for months. Where've you been?

Yeah, I'm worried about the battery life as a handheld too, but I'm nost likely to play it on a big tv most of the time, so it'll be docked - no worries then.

Yeah, I kinda expected it to use carts, but it's nice to have it be in the little video, just for clarity!
.. now,. Will those be the same cart size as the 3/DS, and will they be compatible??

32GB carts, so no.

And another thing. Where's the fecking HD Nintendo? I get it - you supply your own, like Wii and Wii U. But how portable will that make the console then? How can you cart around your complete Switch Eshop collection if they are all on an external HD?

They've got to be kidding if it's going to be an internal compact flash or SD card of some sort!

Perhaps the device has a limited storage, but the hub has more??!
*shrugs*
I'll be honest, though. Given the shit I've had to put with, installing fuckton of gigabytes of games and updates onto my XBone, I'll be quite content if Nintendo say "NO Hard Drive!!!"

Nah, that's not a DSable card slot.
Bugger. Going to have to redo from start with the entire collection, then!

The lack of a D-Pad is a bit of a shocker, seeing as Nintendo effectively invented it - I'm really not sure the small round buttons will give the same feel, but the Caanoo used an analogue stick for a D-Pad successfully.

... kinda frustrating that this is all we're getting!
Come on, Nintendo! Give us more!!!


Ironically, having waited all day for something from Nintendo, tomorrow my copy of Rhythm Heaven/Paradise/Tengoku Gold Megamix is due, so I get to spend all day impatiently waiting for Nintendo, again!!!

It's everything the WiiU should've been. A neater, more functional variation on the same theme.

But is it too late?
Guess that all depends on the games..

And that's the other side of this coin.
.. no more Nintendo handhelds...?

Technically this is both, but ...
End of an era...

This is very much a "all your eggs in one basket" scenario.
I really do hope it pays off for them, because otherwise.?
