Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

'Online service' is not necessarily the same thing as eshop and VC. Online service is probably info about the subscription service etc, which is only due to start towards the end of the year. Eshop should be Day 1 and so could still be a subject in an impending Direct.

What if they allow to buy DLCs for Switch (thinking mostly about BOTW) with gold My Nintendo points? Like they did with MK8 if i remember well

Yeah i meant that, just reported it here

Weird game, but it sure is nice to see a Nintendo console among the other platforms in a announcement again. It's been a while.

Some people are receiving their Switches already, these next 2 weeks are going to be very leak heavy.

@Grumblevolcano who's already got a switch?

Yeh, Ditto. Pics or it didn't happen.

There's a video uf the UI...

@renaryuugufan92
Is that person a dev or something? I'm watching the OS video right now. I don't see this lasting long on the internet lol

https://vid.me/oQkO the guy posted it

@rallydefault from what i know hes just a average gamer like you and me. so a retailer messed up.

@rallydefault No, a retailer broke the street date.

@Grumblevolcano
Dang... I can see like a few days early, but like 2 weeks early? That's gonna be bad.

Anyway, the sound effects for the icons are awesome lol the first few definitely remind me of Mario sounds.

I love the OS, both visually and its sounds!

@FGPackers
Yea - looks/sounds like a refined Wii U UI, honestly. Clean lines, simple icons - very cool!

UI looks clean and neat but boy I wouldn't like to be whoever broke the street date once Nintendo finds out!

So a retailer only shipped one unit? Where are the others?

Could it be a unit that has been sent to the media for review?

So themes are a thing apparently. Would be nice if we could use the themes and badges we have on our 3DS consoles, just let us choose which half of the theme we want to use, as we won't be able to use both.
