@Favna I think Overwatch on the Switch would be great! I only play Overwatch on PC (not like I have a PS4 or xbox one anyways) and while a nice mouse and low sensetivity is nice, gyro controls paired with a mobile hotspot could prove a nice way of playing Overwatch anywhere. You set a high sensetivity for the turning analog stick and aim with the gyroscope. At the doctors office? Stand up and turn on the mobile hotspot. It will take some physical effort but even heroes like Widowmaker should be enjoyable (though considering I mainly play Widow I probably shouldn't try to play with a gyro either lol). Flick shots shouldn't be too hard if the gyro sens is 1:1 with your movements. Also, you mentioned the Switch being underpowered, but Overwatch is very easy to run. 60fps on low settings would be easy at 720p, even with this "custom Tegra processor" from NVidia, and before you say low settings are terrible, pls no, just stick shadows on low or something and it looks great
It's pretty fun if you can forget about the sickening framerate. It only gets worse in 3D, but that's not required. If you really want mobile block building I'd just recommend using a smartphone and compatible controller with a stand for your phone with Minecraft: Pocket Edition. Nice to know they haven't forgotten about this/died though, I will check it out again when the update is released.
Can the screen just stay put/not VR mode? If so, this will finally fulfill my dreams of properly aiming with the gamepad in Splatoon. No turning with the right stick here!
@Kroko True, but if they have an NVidia GPU which seems very likely at this point, I doubt it will have Freesync support. Either way they probably won't have support for higher refresh rates or G-Sync
Honestly, I hope the NX has 120hz support. HDMI 1.4 is able to output 1080p/144hz if pushed to the limit. While most games won't run at 120fps, if they put an NVidia GPU in there like the rumors say...
G-Sync pls I want Displayport C'mon Nintendo, I can't play anything on consoles anymore, it's not smooth enough! PLS NINTENDO
@-DEMISE- Nintendo has never gone after modifications of their games. They only ever go after projects that can't be played on one of their consoles (so far). They haven't shut down a single Pokémon GBA ROM hack (and there are hundreds, maybe thousands that are plenty popular), but they shut down Pokémon... what was it, Uranium? I believe so.

Re: Poll: Exceptional Graphics or 60fps, Which is More Important for the NX Generation?
@yomanation I said most are willing to. And, as far as I know, many fighting game fams on PC do as it halves input lag in many situations.

Re: Poll: Exceptional Graphics or 60fps, Which is More Important for the NX Generation?
@yomanation Most fighting game players are fine with using 120hz monitors. If you're on a 60hz display it just halves the framerate. Right?
Right?
Re: Poll: Exceptional Graphics or 60fps, Which is More Important for the NX Generation?
@Kroko Because the NX uses an NVidia GPU, apparently.
