How big are the chances of the battery being removable? Would hate for a whole console to just die after a couple of years and be dependent on the charger

 

[Father_Brain]

Is it just me, or did the framerate on some of the BotW clips look a bit dodgy?

 

[inner-G]

Has it been mentioned whether the mobile mode of games will get a downgrade graphically or not?

You can't tell about the resolution, but Skyrim and Zelda appeared to run less smoothly on the handheld

 

[poppedcollar69]

i hope nintendo doesn't undercut the switch by devoting any further resources to their previous portables

 

[Scrawnton]

Was the Mario game new? Looked a lot like 3D World in the later part, but didn't seem like it the first time it showed up.

3D world is very rarely full 3D behind the back view. This looked more like Mario 64/Sunshine.

 

[protomouse]

A damn fine hardware trailer if I ever saw one. Music is on point as well. Super stoked about this.

 

[01DragonFly]

I made more colors!

And some more...http://imgur.com/a/FSHaK

White, orange and light blue *.*

 

[Clinton514]

Show me the not recycled launch line-up and proper online system and I'll bite.

Until then, switching the channel.

 

[RS4-]

Well, that was pretty fucking nice. Might have to finally day 1 a Nintendo product.

 

[eFKac]

Wow this thing looks awful.

I guess that fake gaffer made one upped my expectations lol.

IT has Skyrim though, first big WRPG on a "handheld" ever? So that's impressive.

 

[JuiceboxD]

Day One here.

 

[tsab]

Guys what exactly is this part?

probably this is needed to have more than one joy-con controllers paired to the console when in dock/tv mode.
See it has the first led light indicating player1

 

[AstroNut325]

Not interested so far. Need to see more.

I don't game on the go. And in my game time I'm expecting more visuals and capability than what has been shown.

 

[Ruff]

How powerful can something that small really be? Does it have a hope of playing the games it advertises in reality? Looks similar to a tablet and I haven't kept up with how powerful those can be now.

 

[The_Afroman]

Looks like it's Tegra powered. Confirmed by Nvidia.

[The Omega Man]

how much?

Then I'm excited.

 

[Bunta]

First impression is the name sucks.

 

[human5892]

Looks really fiddly. And that was with coached actors on a set.

 

[CNCOMICS]

Amazing.

 

[Trogdor1123]

I'm sure this has been pointed out but no touch screen?

 

[Clefargle]

Read this earlier, so cool

 

[Oersted]

You are absolutely the only one and noone else mentioned it.


NOONE.

 

[B-Dubs]

Odds are that's the remaster Bethseda is putting out too, which gives us an idea of it's power.

 

[Spinluck]

It's beautiful :')

Day 1 so fucking hard.

 

[catmincer]

hmmmm not gonna bother yet. But if the price is good maybe later.

 

[Conkerkid11]

I'm stalking the fuck out of the Amazon page right now.

I will get my pre-order in. Nintendo consoles are hard as hell to get at launch.

Does a Microsoft Surface count as a handheld? I think it's about the same size

This could make ports a bit tricky, since the other systems and PC are on x86 CPUs, right?

 

[Feel the Swift]

I made more colors!

In for the NES color scheme.

 

[BassForever]

It and skyrim had some framerate jitters while playing portable

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Laura saying the dock might be extra processing power

 

[ThatRandomCliff]

Those Inklings have new hair styles!!! Splatoon 2!

 

[Leonsito]

No d-pad on the Joy-Con is madness, I understand they did it to have two gamepads for some games, but.. come on.

 

[AgeEighty]

Looks really fiddly. And that was with coached actors on a set.

It certainly does move away from Nintendo's old philosophy of the hardware disappearing in service to the software.

 

[Lemonte]

Guys what exactly is this part?

it is shown in the trailer.

Grip for the controllers and probably a battery pack.

 

[Hikami]

I really liked that. Just need the price to be right and this could be my first Day 1 console ever.

I'm so ready to ditch my 3DS

Spoiler

and Vita.

 

[maxiell]

If you think of it as a console, it's really not all that different from the Wii U in so many ways.

If you think of it as a handheld, it has a promising future in Japan and could succeed in the U.S. and elsewhere given the lack of competition in that space.

 

[Defect]

I'm sold.

 

[Y2Kev]

I'm curious to see how they target a price point that doesn't kill them in the handheld market.

 

[VanWinkle]

Laura saying the dock might be extra processing power

I had considered that, but it definitely wouldn't be a seamless switch from handheld to console mode if that were the case.

 

[rekameohs]

Personally I think the system looks sexy af. I'll probably be rocking the Pro controller for couch play and handheld play for everything else, so I just hope the latter is able to fit in my pocket.

Gotta have some...... pretty big pockets then!

 

[Aesnath]

Huh.

My faith was rewarded.

 

[spliced]

I'm really curious how the leaks affected the reaction to it. That reveal would have been a massive shock had people not known about the design beforehand. It may have helped Nintendo since people knew not to expect some super power system since battery life plays a part with it being portable.

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

I am still waiting for specs, price and type of games before I decide if I get it.

Spoiler

prob will get it and it will just sit in my house collecting dust.

I don't want my console to have to stand up.... no way this can lay flat right, with the connector and everything?

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Thats what she said

Dat purple! GameCube 2.

 

[teraMEL0S]

This looks awesome. What I truly wanted the Wii U to be. Kudos, Nintendo!

 

[Horsemama1956]

I would say it's pretty stupid. looks like a pain in the ass for portable and that screen is just asking to be destroyed. We'll buy it as a home console though.
