Huh....it looks....interesting.

...also looks like the side switch out thingies are going to be majorly uncomfortable...unique though! I will give Nintendo credit for that.

...but it also looks like they could fall off while you're playing the game...I imagine the actual switching won't be so easy like it shows (probably locks in place, hold a button to unlock and slide out), but if it is...

...still not sure what it is exactly...it looks like they just made a gaming tablet with game cartridges, TV streaming, and controller accessories, so, again, unique for consoles.

...Skyrim? That's quite a surprise. Hopefully this means much better 3rd party support now?

...I honestly don't know what to think of the Switch...I'm not sure if the mobile aspect of it will really sell well since it's, well...a tablet...and I usually keep my tablet at home for something that can fit in my pocket (although, my 2DS is an exception to this)...I also wonder about how well it'll actually play games. Is it aiming for mobile quality? Or is it trying to have current gen console gaming quality? Or maybe it's going for both with it's docking thing, but will it actually improve the performance that much?

...I still question it, so I still have no interest in picking up one. It's going to take something much more to hook me in.

Found an article that includes Nintendo's description of how the console functions and a list of publishers/developers that are supporting the system.

My only concerns are price and power... Though it releases around bonus/tax refund season

On a quick change of topic: Has anyone here played any of The Witcher games? Steam is having a sale on them, and the first one is only $1.49 (*has $1.59*).

Okay, a few things to note:

First, from listening to that podcast, they mentioned the framerate of Zelda on the handheld, and looking back on the trailer...goodness the framerate is extremely choppy... Really.

Also, from IGN: Amiibo support confirmed by Nintendo. Nintendo also talked about the docking port for the Switch:

Nintendo to IGN wrote:The Nintendo Switch dock has been created so that it is extremely easy to seamlessly switch from playing games on a TV, to transition into a portable unit. The dock is not the main console unit. The main unit of Nintendo Switch is the unit that has the LCD screen. The primary function of the Nintendo Switch dock is to provide an output to the TV, as well as charging and providing power to the system.

They declined to comment weather or not the Switch has touchscreen capability.

I can't help but think it's like "do you *really* think our system that only ever has one output, one of which is a TV Screen, will have touch capabilities?"

You realize that was just a super imposed image right?

Investors, maybe, but most people I see are pretty excited for it.

So far, the only person who doesn't seem excited about it from my experience is my mom.
"So will it be able to play the other games?" "Wii games? No--those are disc, this uses cartridge." "Hmmm" (though it also sounds like she was wondering if the 3DS games could be played on it...I don't think so, mom)

"This commercial is, like, rediculously long!" "...it's only like, 3 minutes."

"Hmmm, March 2017. So it will be old news by the time you get home." "...yup ( ;^; )"

...I don't think she realizes just how old and outdated the Wii is by now...she was only just recently starting to warm up to the idea of the Wii U, but only because I wanted one. By now a Wii U isn't even worth it...

Or is it? Once the Switch comes out, the Wii U will be much cheaper.

And switch isn't (physically) backwards compatible so if you want some of the wii u exclusives for cheap...
