Nintendo Switch Presentation: January 12th, 2017 at 11PM EST

[Kamikaze Revy]

It's 2017 and Nintendo just revealed a voice chat plan that consists of calling people on your phone.

Let that shyt sink in.

 

[BlackManLiveFromLondon]

Are people really gonna pay 300 for a console with what.. 32GB space?

 

[Deltron]

Nintendo Treehouse Live stream w/ Switch

 

[Threnody]

This shyt is a damn JOKE

 

[Dominic Brehetto]

$400 In Canada

Right?

That's about $450 after tax. Add in $100 for a pro controller.

Another $90 for 1 game.


Sorry nintendo. I ain't dropping $700 for this fukking thing day 1.

This is DOA

 

[TBdaGhost]

-$300 console
-Console can be played on TV or mobile on the tablet device
-Switch controllers work similar to original Wii controllers
-Pro controller available for $70
-Only Zelda is announced as a launch title so far
-Some other nice games like Arms, Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2, but not available until at least the Summer (Mario in the Winter)

Dont forget them shyts come with wrist straps

 

[Ronald]

did the pro controller really need amiibo functionality? 90 fukkin dollars here

 

[thaKEAF]

So wii u price drop soon?

I'm pretty sure no major retailer is still even selling the Wii U brand new lol.

 

[winb83]

So wii u price drop soon?

No.

Most places don't even sell new Wii U consoles anymore. Nintendo quit making them and they're just letting the supply dry up which it is. Places like Best Buy and Gamestop don't sell them online anymore.

 

[Moose_Greyjoy]

I wish I had a child so I can waste money on this

 

[Deltron]

hope we still get a 3DS successor...

 

[Doctor Doom]

Why should I get a Switch when I can just play Zelda on my old ass WiiU?

 

[Hiphoplives4eva]

Did this really go down in the presentation

















































Nintendo is done.

Heard Skyrim is just a 360 port and Zelda is only 900P and xenoblade is 720. This is just a turbo charged Wii U. MFers trying to get over on us like they did with the Wii

fukk all you pixel patrol ass nikkas. So glad Nintendo didn't listen to y'all when creating the system.

That being said, system is a bit overpriced, given power under the hood.

 

[Fatboi1]

I woke up hoping this wasn't real and it was just a bad dream. I cannot believe the shyt I'm seeing here.

 

[cfountain]

From what I saw last night...and how I ultimately felt about my Wii U...I'll think about picking this up in a year or two.

Maybe, anyway...last night didn't make me want to drop ~$400 for the Switch + Zelda, and buying other games that will be releasing around that time like Horizon, Nier: Automata, and Mass Effect: Andromeda later that month. My gaming budget is definitely going elsewhere.

I just don't want to feel burnt like I felt after buying the Wii U again. And honestly the Wii before it.


EDIT: knowing myself, I'll probably buy it before summer break like my PS4
