A new console coming in March 2017

Introducing Nintendo Switch! In addition to providing single and multiplayer thrills at home, the Nintendo Switch system also enables gamers to play the same title wherever, whenever and with whomever they choose. The mobility of a handheld is now added to the power of a home gaming system to enable unprecedented new video game play styles.

Looks tablet sized, but with a TV hook-up. Nvidia Pascal/Tegra powered. Will it get stuck in-between not being 3DS sized vs being under-powered compared to XB1S/PS4Pro? Also, will 3rd Parties really deliver for it this time, or will it be the ‘Mario Machine’ one more time?

Skyrim (hopefully remastered) was good to see. If the price isn’t too bad I think I would quite like a powerful portable thing, especially if it played some of the better WiiU stuff I enjoyed. I think it is going to take cartridges as the media (read-only SD card like things). Don’t forget to blow on them! :video_game:

I think bringing back cartridges is pretty interesting, if it drops loading times I’m all for it lol.

I had every Nintendo console- EVERY - up to the WiiU.
I’m unconvinced by this trailer. I’m used to technology and that looks way too perfect to be real.

Egregious design, but… we’ll see I guess.

Makes me sad. Just hop over to your friend’s rooftop party and be a human. Talk, dance, drink, flirt. Leave the F-ing devices at home!

Not impressed,

it’s basically an nVidia Sheild re-skinned with Nintendo’s OS.

My kids want one. That’s all I know.

I’m more interested in the NES Classic than this.
