Looks decent, the only problem is that there's no price, which worries me a bit.

UPDATE: It's region free

List of companies that are making games for it already (It's going to screw with the margins so that's why I didn't post

It's interesting but I'm not sure about it. I'm tired of Nintendo's gimmicky consoles.

It looks good, but, I dunno, I can't see it running the most current games due to its size...

Would make a nifty Final Fantasy XIV machine though

What would you have them use in their advertisements ?
Someone playing in their dark basement? Wouldn't have the same effect

I for one, am really hopeful for this system. Too many naysayers! I honestly don't see this system as a "gimmick" as the portable screen is optional and I think it's incredible that you can have that calibre of graphics on the go.

I've heard that the Mario games seen in the trailer might just be updated versions of the Wii U games. If true then Sonic, Zelda and Dragon Quest XI might be the only new games on the system.

No two of them (Mario Kart and Splatoon) are revamped versions. The 3D game is a brand new one.

Not quite. Zelda is launching alongside Switch for Switch AND Wii U (Similar to Twilight Princess).

Also heard a rumour that Beyond Good & Evil 2 is coming to Switch <3
