Hold on, let me rephrase this correctly:

ARMS will be featured at Genesis 4 Super Smash Bros. tournament, which is sponsored by Nintendo.

Making promise is easy. The hard part is keeping it.

The switch launch is looking really great. A console launch with a game like zelda says it all.

I tried to compare major releases during different periods of the launch. At about monthly intervals for the first year. I didn't claim it was a full list. It can't be a full list because we don't know all of the games coming to the Switch yet. But in any case I think the comparisons I made are fair.

If you think I was being unfair to the Wii U? Name something that was like Arms on the Wii U that came out around January/February 2013. I don't think there's anything that was along those lines. The closest thing would be Bit Trip Runner 2. I don't think that counts.

Anyone else already sold?

Best news all week.

Hoping it's new mechanic in a SK game but it sounds like he could be working on a new IP?

Sonic Mania, and Lego City Undercover are going to be release for the Switch in Spring this year. Switch's release schedule has been update.

So the Switch itself has a headphone jack, handheld mode will be out of the question here.
Sometimes I like to play at night and I don't want to disturb my neighbors.
On the Wii U I could just use the headphone jack on the Gamepad and still play on the tv.
Does anyone have an idea if something like this is possible on the Switch?
The pro controller is out of the question, no jack there.
But maybe the switch supports bluetooth headsets/headphones?
Maybe you can stream audio to "that" app an listen over the phone. Any info on that yet?

@Julius_Senpai that would be a really welcome feature. I actually really really love that the PS4 let's you route all audio to the controller while playing on the TV.

That said, I wouldn't hold my breath. I doubt Nintendo cares to dedicate resources to that considering the joycons don't seem to have a headphone jack and the switch needs to be in the dock to display to the TV.

It's a great idea though

Worst case: I will buy an extension chord for my headphones.

Oh, ok. I wasn't sure whether you were complaining about her list or both. All good. In any case I think listing it out the way I did, if anything, does show the Wii U slowing down early on. In that middle period it got Lego City, Injustice and Resident Evil Revelations. Good games for sure. But the Switch over that same period is getting Arms, Splatoon 2, Fire Emblem Warriors and Skyrim. Which is pretty clearly a step up.

@Julius_Senpai
I've been looking for pictures of the Pro Controller to see if it has a headphone jack. Haven't seen anything to confirm it yet so I'm assuming it doesn't have one. But Bluetooth is most definitely there. Technically it has been on every Nintendo home console since the Wii.

That list is still missing.... quite a bit actually. The most glaring omission being Fire Emblem Warriors for Fall 2017. But it's also missing notables like Constructor HD (launch), Binding of Issac: Afterbirth+ (also launch), Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove and Specter of Torment (launch window), Graceful Explosion Machine (granted this was just announced yesterday) and Redout (May).

So... Japan preorders starting going up today and Amazon.co.jp sold out in 15 minutes.

And there goes my hope that importing might secure me one for launch. Camping out it is.

That's what I'll be doing too. Sucks to be us peasants that missed the opportunity to preorder. I live in a really small town, so I'm just hoping not too many people will be doing the same thing.

@BLP_Software Heh, How callous of them.

A quick wiki says Titanfall 2 is on PC, PS4, and Xbox 1. I'm assuming it can't run Xbox 1 games then. Or that they just took a 15 second glance of a Dragon Quest heroes switch game photo and was like NOPE without giving in in-depth look at the specs?

Western developers are the reason the industry is now focused on spec chasing, sadly. They are the noisiest bunch, also very arrogant at times.

Nice to see he's at least open with not bothering to try though. Better than saying yes and canning it for undisclosed technical difficulties.
