Yyyyyyyyeah.... I appreciate that they're selling the unique aspects of the Switch better than they did for the Wii U, but I'm not bowled over so far.

The funny thing is that there was a 4Chan leak everyone laughed off, but they're 3 for 3 so far!

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

I'm giving this new system Fingers, but only the middle one. I have zero interest in Switch after seeing what they've shown so far.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

Getting a Splatoon update? Cool.

(... and this press conference is boring)

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

Arms looks like garbage.

oOo... Splatoon 2

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

1, 2 Switch looked like an iPhone app. "READY... SET.... FIRE!"

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

GTA Mario! :lol:

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

... and now we're getting Super Mario Open World? Weird.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

It's me, MARIO!

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

Splatoon 2 looks kinda samey, as much as I love the first game. Super Mario Odyssey is killing it.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

So what is going to be ready at launch?

Super Mario Odyssey is Holiday 2017.

Splatoon 2 is Summer 2017.

Even the demo games are coming later in 2017.

... what are going to get to play?

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

So far I'm not seeing enough to get me interested even after there's been a price drop. There'll need to be some absolutely stellar third party support for me to bite after the Wii and Wii U.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

Frame rate on Xenoblade 2 is a little questionable, but the game looks interesting.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

I suspect Fire Emblem Warriors will be a Dynasty Warriors-style game since it looked like Chrom was the character shown.

Of course, I'm excited about finally being able to play Dragon Quest 10 and 11, and looking forward to a console Shin Megami Tensei again.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

1-2 Switch, and you'll like it!

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

The couldn't-give-a-shit translator cannot keep up with Suda51. Awesome.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

Oh yay! A 5.5 year old game! Finally!

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

Yeah, these translators need to be fired. Ugh.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

That sega guy just came out to say they're considering titles? Didn't they already show a sega/atlus title they could have saved for him? Kinda sad.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

Travis Touchdown....


I mean... I'm stoned... but is this real?

What... the... fuck.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

About as cool as Thumb Wars on the iPhone. ;)

... on another note:

Looks like the guy at Grasshopper just came on stage to say, "Hey look, we drew this character... and we are going to put him in a game. We don't have a title in mind yet, but he looks cool. Oh, his name is Travis Touchdown!"

:yack:

(Oh, I get it... he's from that one game I never played that had the flourescent-light-bulb-sword-weapons.)

He said more, I'm sure, but the translator was totally lost. I don't know why they didn't just say "No More Heroes 3". Too much of this is laughably far off on the horizon.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

So what's the launch lineup?

1-2 Switch
Skyrim
Zelda
???

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

Preorders start January 21st.

re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
 

I love how they're, like:

When is Zelda coming out?
When is Zelda coming out?
When is Zelda coming out?

Throw it back to Kimishima, and he doesn't answer the question at all. I'm sure they'll say it's a launch title after the trailer, but still...

They didn't make a case for picking the Switch up at launch at all. Some of this stuff we won't even see until 2018 or 2019.
