heres a little infograph of developers lined up for 3rd party support and launch titles, its a lot more than the wii u and companies like EA who told Nintendo to piss off are contributing to it. So that makes me optimistic. |

being able to play Skyrim remastered on the go is a pretty big deal |

10.20.16 | yeh thatll be cool so long as the battery life is good as was said
i guess im just still salty they are releasing a remaster of a 5 year old game instead of making a new one

10.20.16 | alex is just a loser.
im still upset that Nintendo bundled Splatoon and Smash 4 in a 32gig wii u package last year and then announced a month later that a new console was on the way. Mighty cheap trick to get some last minute unit sales. |
Mystletainn
10.20.16 | Was overall quite disappointed with the wii u, not going to pick up another Nintendo console for who knows how long. |

10.20.16 | Wii U was a good console, didn't compete with Xbox One or PS4 in terms of specs but it wasn't trying to. Had its own brand and style. Some really cool innovations on that system, integrating ideas from both the Wii and the DS.
Switch looks pretty sweet |
VaxXi
10.20.16 | the wii u sucked. the only good games were nintendo's and there was a total of 6 of them. im just glad to see theres people who actually want to develop for this. |
Rik VII
10.20.16 | the problem with the Wii U wasn't the console itself, but the lack of interesting titles released for it. Nintendo have been slacking off like hell during the last years. |

The console looks fucking awesome |
Rik VII
10.20.16 | yeah I too find it very convincing. was kinda hoping for them to do something similar, combining handheld and home console. Wii U was the first step in that direction, so this is just consistent. |
Impervious
10.20.16 | DUDE IT LOOKS SO AWESOME.
Main concern is battery and processing power but holy christ Breath Of The Wild looks fucking epic.
Also, I fucking love my Wii U. Granted there aren't a ton of games for it but I made up for that with all those old school games on the E-shop. Hand held Link To The Past, Mega Man X, and Earthbound? Sold. Console is baller.
Splatoon was the fucking shit though! Pumped for another! |
Crymsonblaze
10.20.16 | I don't care about the dumb gimmick but new Mario and Zelda should be fun. Still just getting a PS4 instead though probably. |

10.20.16 | No lie, I've been dreaming of a main console Pokemon game open world for so long. Tech has come such a long way, it's totally plausible. Not sure why they've never done it although the handheld games have had their own improvements.
My biggest issue with Pokemon has been the lazy creatures they've been making since after the second gen. GODDAM some of those are so fucking awful. |

10.21.16 | Wii U is Nintendo's second best console, only behind the Gamecube. For some reason Nintendo's best consoles also sold poorly in comparison to the rest of their generation, while their gimmick ones (the N64 and the Wii) sold even better. |
WatchItExplode
10.21.16 | From Soft is also listed as a partner. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, and Souls games on the go would be a killer ap for sure.
Maybe the coolest thing about this is it consolidates Ninty's mobile and console devs. This means a steady stream of games across all their 3ds and home franchises. This won't be the entertainment wasteland that was the Wii U. |

I love my WiiU. Underrated af.
Can't wait for this. That Mario game they flashed looks awesome. |
pjquinones747
10.21.16 | Very interested in this seeing as Nintendo got a BUNCH more brands to play on like Activision, Bethesda, Square Enix, etc. I wonder how much more they're gonna charge for it for all of the different options you're getting. |
AmericanFlagAsh
10.21.16 | Nintendo doesn't really need multi-platform games tbh
They just need a steady output of great Nintendo games and exclusives. Which, they keep failing to do. There is always long periods of time with nothing out. |
brainmelter
10.21.16 | wow, the future is comin |
pjquinones747
10.21.16 | I've missed out on three generations of great games from Nintendo because of their limited availability of multi-plat games. Gamers like myself might also be enticed to convert so we can get the best of all worlds. I'm gonna wait for lists of unavailable games to pop up, but as long as I get Bethesda, BioWare, and Square Enix I'm pretty sold on it. |
Astral Abortis
10.21.16 | Nintendo is the only console brand at least attempting to make themselves viable and interesting outside of PC gaming. Where the Xbox and Playstation are just trying to be as close to PCs as possible (which is effecting them in the worst way possible), Nintendo is doing their best to make consoles *different*, therefore worthy. And they've done that, whether or not most people like their approach.
I reckon this is really cool though, can't wait. |

10.21.16 | from software is listed as one of the developers who are nintendo switch partners. dark souls on the go. please. |
Impervious
10.21.16 | When it came to third party games though, they never played or looked as good on Nintendo anyways. It's usually always Nintendo's games themselves that played the best.
"If Nintendo can't finally produce a worthwhile online environment, I'm still out no matter how cool this looks."
Splatoon was magical. Stupid fun, weird online shooter. They had the typical Nintendo weird control style, but matchmaking was tight, it wasn't a CoD knockoff, and they had over a solid year of free DLC with new maps, guns and other shit like Splatfests. And Switch showed off either a sequel or some 1.5 rerelease.
Hyped as fuck. Between that, new Zelda, and how fucking beast and game changing this seems I'm practically already sold. |
VaxXi
10.21.16 | when he talks about online environment he means something that isnt stupid like friend codes or system tethering games. |
WatchItExplode
10.21.16 | VaxXi is correct. Some form of achievement system would be nice as well. Why on earth can you not have party chat on Mariokart or Splatoon? |
Impervious
10.21.16 | Well Nintendo is still sort of family based so they didn't want CoD wankers splattering cusses all over the family room. That was the biggest gripe of the game. The game did add features that helped with in game communication like knowing where players were if you were at the "home", seeing where teammates were killed on the map and stuff. They tried which I really appreciated.
And I agree, the console tethering is sort of ridiculous. It's not exactly the easiest to do either. I think they tried this to avoid having permanent screen names to manage, especially since their networking was all free. |
Impervious
10.21.16 | Achievments would also be awesome to have. Adds a whole new level of challenge to a lot of games and I am totally a sucker for them. |
