If they say it is comparable to Wii Play, then why does it cost almost tripple? Instead of being a nice introduction to the Joy-Cons this will be forgotten in no time. Shame.
Nintendo Switch 2: touchscreen, motion controls in joy-cons, 3D display, gyroscope, streaming wirelessly to TV without base station, Wii U-like integration of second display, 4g. Maybe we will see some of this even in its first iteration. I'm already sold.
Having Unity and UE4 on board is great news for indie developers. The offering of smaller games in the 3DS eShop is really good, and I think this will transition to the Switch. Really excited for this.
I think it's fascinating how Niantic spends 90% of their development time on making this game worse instead of adding new and exciting features. So far they got rid of the trackers and are fighting with the development community over access of their database for the most part. Then they added free candies every few miles for a montype of your choice. Now they disable playing on the go. Fantastic job there, killing what could have been a decent game.
I wouldn't be too surprised if they sold the base station of the NX as a separate accessory and made the handheld standalone. With that they could aim for a higher combined price.

On a completely different note, I just received my Wii U Gamecube Controller Adapter clone from play asia. Works pretty good, can only recommend it if you are still searching for one!

Re: Feature: What We Expect from the Nintendo Switch Presentation
I'm curious if there will be a StreetPass function.
Re: Editorial: The Nintendo Switch 'Power' Debate is Likely Missing the Point
Switch 2 with a clamshell design that houses a single, foldable 3D display. Calling it now. With this there will be no need for a new 3DS.
Re: Eurogamer Report Suggests Nintendo Switch GPU Runs 60 Percent Slower When Undocked
1080p has actually 2,25x the amount of pixels of 720p, so the performance should roughly stay the same when switching from TV to tablet.

Re: Say Hello to the Nintendo Switch, a New Concept for Gaming
The small detachable controllers appear to have buttons in the inside. You can see one guy press them to slide in Mario Kart.

So it's (egg-group hatching distance / 2) rounded up. No need for a long table.

These gears are jammed. Someone gotta tell Nintendo to rethink their business model.

@BieberBlows Probably because an overwhelming percentage of consumers are male and don't want a female starter. Just use a ditto for breeding instead!
