Support NeoGAF

[Sesuadra]

Android?

No

 

[notaskwid]

I'm aware that a big chunk is reserved by the OS and firmware, just kinda surprised at how big that chunk is.

Just pointing it's not 6gb

32GB claimed is actually about 29.8GB usable space, so the OS takes up 3.9GB.

It still does indeed seem too big.

 

[Hydrus]

Love it! Simple and sleek and hopefully fast.

 

[GustyGardens]

Looks nice.

What happens when you click on your user icon in the left corner?

 

[serenewarfare]

Hopefully this forces nintendos hand and they release an official video on UI features and eshop functionality.

Yeah emergency Nintendo Direct incoming. Nintendo can't really stay silent much longer.

Spoiler

though they most definitely will

Maybe they are still working on the Day 1 update and don't want to show anything until it's ready?

6GB is fairly significant. Anyone know what Wii U ended up at after updates?

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

This should be in the OP.

Added.

 

[RoadHazard]

Wow, HUGE improvement from the WiiU.

You can get to system's settings directly, no load times in between menus, clear and minimalist UI.

LOVE IT.

Except you have to tap every icon twice (once to select it, once more to activate it). That I do not get.

 

[GarciaHotspur]

The best UI ever if we trust Neogaf

 

[Sesuadra]

Looks like from a previous thread that hiphoptherobot preordered from Amazon.

Would be super weird if Amazon shipped his console 2+ weeks early.

Look; he said he does not want to say who shipped it to him early.

Can't we respect that and not crawl around in his posting history >.>?

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

As usual Light theme >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Stop.

Looks alright. Dark theme is where it's at just like with GAF.

 

[KingSnake]

I have a feeling that this includes the space reserved for screenshots and updates.

 

[Scrawnton]

The console releases in two weeks. If it's not in a showable state then what the heck?

 

[QuixoticNeutral]

Reposting as I didn't see that we had spun off into a separate thread:

Parental Controls: "Parental Controls can be used to restrict features of this console. Configure these on the console or using your smart device."

Looks like they can be managed without the Bowser app, which gives me some hope that play-time logging is in fact in (the video didn't guide us into Parental Controls settings).

Sleep Mode: "Suspend Auto-Sleep While Playing Media Content: Prevents auto-sleep from activating while media content is playing. If this option is disabled, the console will still go to sleep after four hours of media playback."

Now that's interesting, given that we've been told we're not receiving a Netflix app at launch. The only media content we know to expect at this point are eShop preview videos and the future video-recording feature in the Capture button, neither of which are likely to push the four-hour limit. So it looks like the sleep-mode features in the OS have been built in advance of future Netflix or Twitch integration.

 

[Joelstinton14]

IGN have tweeted that loads of coverage is coming soon. Seems like we might have a blowout soon.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

There :

Friend Notifications is the most interesting thing here.

"Suspend Auto-Sleep While Playing Media Content"

... What media content?

Well, at least they are prepared for what's coming.

For now, probably videos in the eShop.

 

[Kouriozan]

Reposting with slightly better pic :
There is no friend features in this video because you need to link a Nintendo Account.

 

[KJA]

That musical note jump from screen to screen is so pleasurable.

 

[Berordn]

6GB is fairly significant. Anyone know what Wii U ended up at after updates?

The OS took close to 5 GB. Deluxe Wii Us had about 25GB free.

 

[serenewarfare]

The console releases in two weeks. If it's not in a showable state then what the heck?

I mean it's obvious from this video that it's showable. It just might not be 100% where they want it for Day 1.

 

[Compsiox]

At this point I'd rather leave it as a surprise. We'll be looking at it for years.

 

[RanoNL]

UI looks fantastic. Very un-Nintendo. Very responsive.

Too bad there's still no achievement system. Why?!

 

[SinCityAssassin]

How was that ever gonna happen anyway? It will be 3/3 in many other countries (like all of Europe) before the US. He might be the first guy in New York, POSSIBLY America, to get one, but that's it.

Maybe he didn't get a preorder and wanted to get one by any means necessary.

 

[BitStyle]

Look; he said he does not want to say who shipped it to him early.

Can't we respect that and not crawl around in his posting history >.>?

For real. People trying to ruin all the fun. Let the man enjoy his switch without detectives crawling through his history

 

[Deleted member 286591]

Loving that black theme. The entire UI looks fantastic. Wonder what changes are in the day 1 update.

"More stability."

 

[Joelstinton14]

Reposting as I didn't see that we had spun off into a separate thread:

Good spot

 

[Tavernacle12]

I would assume the Day One update won't be live until review copies are genuinely out in the wild so reviewers can update the system. Once that happens he 'should' be able to get onto the eShop maybe?

 

[Litri]

Slick and simple. I like that.

 

[mindatlarge]

Probably been said by now, but some of that UI looks like something from an Android phone. Cool to see how it looks.

 

[pelican]

Thanks for the video.

GAF delivers again.

 

[Cuburt]

"Suspend Auto-sleep while playing media content"

Proves that it's coming at least. Not only that, it solves a problem I have with practically every device I have that has a sleep function that wants to turn off while I'm watching a movie (since 2 hour auto sleep is a time period that works for me any time except while watching streaming content).

 

[Futureman]

Look; he said he does not want to say who shipped it to him early.

Can't we respect that and not crawl around in his posting history >.>?

if it was some local, independent game store I'd agree. Don't really care if Amazon "gets in trouble." OP did nothing wrong so it's not like they have anything to worry about.

 

[Persona7]

Maybe they are still working on the Day 1 update and don't want to show anything until it's ready?

This close to launch? By this point everything should be locked in and ready for launch. Day one update included.

 

[JershJopstin]

After checking my 32GB phone, 29.12 GB is reported as available, and 4.24 of that 29.12 is listed as being taken by the 'system', leaving me with 24.88 to work with. I guess 25.9 isn't actually that bad.

 

[ReddishGUI]

Fight me

 

[SuperSah]

How did he get this?

 

[VanWinkle]

I feel nothing. There's so little to it, it's hard to feel any excitement. But I already knew there was so little to it, so I don't feel any additional disappointment.

 

[Shy]

SDXC needs the update, it supports regular (and HC I think).

I think it's just the SDXC (?) that requires an update.

Ahhh. Coolio.

hiphoptherobot you know what to do.

 

[serenewarfare]

This close to launch? By this point everything should be locked in and ready for launch. Day one update included.

No way. Day 1 updates are worked on until the last possible second to make sure everything is exactly right.

 

[Regiruler]

I said holy shit.

Doesn't mean jackshit if the netcode is still awful, which it was for any game that wasn't a major franchise.

 

[JoeM86]

Could be on My Nintendo?

 

[Lucreto]

So no achievement?

Glad I didn't preorder the system. Horizon it is then.

 

[Scofield94941]

Hiphop u made it on today's big story, congrats https://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=VS5p9stT3qE

 

[Sendou]

Could be on My Nintendo?

How will you access it anyway? Considering no web browser.

 

[……forgetit]

It's two weeks away. They better have a blow out soon.

 

[darkwing-buck]

Thank god they got rid of the menu music.

 

[JoeM86]

So no achievement?

Glad I didn't preorder the system. Horizon it is then.

Seriously? I mean it's your choice, but seriously?

Besides, it's likely if games have any achievements, it'll be on My Nintendo like Nintendo's mobile games

 

[Mediking]

So no achievement?

Glad I didn't preorder the system. Horizon it is then.

I'm shakin' my head so hard right now. Where do I even begin with your post?
