Not entirely for me.
Will have two online services to pay for. It's gonna' suck, and make the price even higher at launch.

No...I don't think so. I need clarification what comes with paid online first

I feel like I'm stuck in mandatory safety training
It's like an Apple conference, except once they get the hardware out the way, it's all games BAY BAY

Who knows maybe the online is like 14.99 a year.

You can tell none of these games are going to have any longevity.

O for sure
Don't see why Arms can't have as much as Smash?

That's it? That was an incredibly weak show for a system that's coming out in less than two months.
Zelda only on the US stream makes me think the EU delay is real.
I've probably never been more hyped. I'm so in.
Good fucking god that's ending on a crunch.

When Nintendo said "We're delaying the Switch until Spring because games"
They didn't mean "We're delaying the Switch until Spring to ensure a strong launch lineup"
They meant "We're delaying the Switch until Spring because otherwise there would literally be no games"
.. what was everyone who wasn't working on... Star Fox Wii U.. doing last year...?

Wait, really? It wasn't in the Euro stream? The Switch has to launch with something. With Splatoon 2 and Mario Odyssey coming later in the year, they need Zelda to sell the system.
At least we can import it, if it does get delayed.
Nah, it was Reggie talking about it. It's happening worldwide now after that trailer, pretty sure.

Incredibly, I think I'm out at Launch. Probably will get one when Mario comes out. I was 95% ready to preorder one about 90 minutes ago.
I'm frankly astounded that's all they had to offer. $300, paid online and Pro controllers are $70(!!!). I love Zelda, but I'll wait. Luckily I'll have Horizon and Mass Effect around then to cushion the disappointment.
This thing launches in 48 days. They seemingly(?) have 2 launch games. No details on how the account system/virtual console/etc. will work. What have they been working on?!
Hah, why does Nintendo make it so difficult for me to love them!

If the developer of one of the biggest games in the world wants to be on your stage, you don't say no..

Paid online, cost too much across the board
It's Wii U all over again. Zelda and Mario and that's really it.
We tanked a year of Wii U games for what?

When you're launching
you definitely should.
"Nintendo Switch is also getting a version of the most pervasive sports game on the planet that is releasing 6 months after launch" isn't the marquee announcement you want in your major pre-launch show. At best, it's the sort of thing that'd be able to be glossed over in reviewing a more robust conference. In this conference, it's fluff on fluff.
It feels like they literally didn't have any other choice to fill those minutes. No BG&E2, no Raving Rabbids RPG, no Smash, no Pokemon Stars, no Bayonetta/DKTF ports, no VC comments, no details on the account system, none of the other numerous things that they should have had there -- just what's essentially blank space.
They had plenty of choice, look at what didn't get announced but is coming out now. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Bomberman R, Ultra Street Fighter 2. You're lucky CoD isn't coming or they would have been there too.

Everyone imports it, Nintendo suddenly announces they're reinstating region locking.
That's cool, it just wasn't what I wanted to see. I wanted a cheaper price, a solid launch lineup and a future lineup that could make me confident it wouldn't be months between releases like the Wii U. What we got was a handful of games, some of which are probably years away.
I also have no faith in their ability to deliver on a paid online service when they have yet to deliver an experience that even matches the PS3, let alone the Vita, PS4 or Xbone.

I'll get a Switch next Christmas with Mario and it will be perfect holiday jolly vibes.
Probably get Zelda on Wii U in the meantime. I hope that version of the game is okay.

It feels like they're unwilling to critique some of the pricing choices here. Hop off the honeymoon fellas.

They did when Ian rattled off the list. Nothing positive was said
