No. We know nothing about stuff like that.

Damn.. This is going to be really tough but I'll try it out:
NES - Excitebike
SNES - Super Metroid (I just want a 2D Metroid goddamnit)
N64 - Hey You! Pikachu! (Let me shout at a Pokemon goddamnit)
GCN - Mario Sunshine (Gets a ton of hate but I still love it)
Wii - Kirby's Epic Yarn (We need more games like this. No way to die but still offers challenges for experienced gamers)
Wii-U - Mario 3D World (Basically, don't let that series die. I'd love to have multiple styles of 3D Mario games that they cycle between)

So... I just wanted to take a moment to appreciate something. Switch is set to be a hybrid console that has:
- USB C charging
- Micro SD card support
- Bluetooth headphone/chat support
Holy shit, what universe am I living in? Are we really getting a console/handheld that uses standardized tech where it really counts?
Also: So much for the people thinking we would get a BoTW GI cover story -

Yeah, I'm so glad Nintendo didn't go their old proprietary route for this. I'd hope this is a sign of younger people having more power over decisions.
I'm sure the Switch will feel great in one's hands.

why would Nintendo stop providing this feature now?

I would love to hold one but im not about to drive out to Chicago and freeze my ass off in a long line to do it

ugh that cover is so retro... those faces tho
Where did you get this? How they can have a piece on Zelda and not put it on the cover is beyond me.

I was a frequent lurker and I'm a relatively new user - is there any way to organize meetups or anything? A SwitchGAF Chicago meetup would be cool. If this topic isn't allowed let me know and I'll edit!
If we're gonna freeze why not freeze together
I'm sure there will be more opportunities to try Switch before it comes out.
It's GI.

I imagine Nintendo didn't pay for it.

So no zelda from GI tomorrow?
To be fair, havent Nintendo been kinda decent with this stuff for a while? SD Cards, non-proprietary harddiscs, usb-rechargable controllers and so on.

If we don't get this exact photo but with Reggie, I'm not buying a Switch.
It's just a tease.
Yeah, but all of that was overshadowed by the power adapter. For me at least.

What time will digital GI update?

Using USB Mini instead of Micro pissed me off with the Pro Controllers

Drake continuing his lies to us. 😕
Yeah, this is probably it.
Why "

Goddamnit Nate! Why must you lie to us!
I'm kidding of course. You merely said we would get Zelda info in the new GI and we did.

For those who live in Canada check your inboxes, just got an email from Nintendo about the Nintendo Switch public demo event.

It's just a tease.
I can see a body that is ready
Is it out already?

The cover was revealed and the article mentions that there's Zelda news. I don't think the magazine itself is live for digital subscribers but it should be at some point today.
I fixed some of your list ^^.

Considering the games they are mentioning (all from the PS experience), i bet it's probably a roundup of info from the game awards show and PS experience. It's not the cover story because it's most likely nothing new
I'm thinking the Switch itself will get a cover.
Oh yeah, that too.
I guess so too but at the moment barring any delays we have Mass Effect, Horizon and Switch + Zelda in March. All of them great covers stories.
Just got mine as well ... basically a "watch your inbox obsessively" until Eventbrite sends you the actual invite.
Toronto dates were Jan. 27, 28 & 29 right?
