switch pro controller is $70? wtf?
JoyConBoyz is 80 and the pro controller 70 lol.
Welcome to controllers. PS4 and XB1's are 60 and 65-70 for colors... shit's insane.

nintendo is pushing their luck. game system with cell phone level power for $300, controllers for $70, no pack in game, paying for online that is likely to be shit.... i already preordered (best buy) but i'm not sure how much of a market there is for nintendo here unless they've got some aces up their sleeve.
of course the first round of consoles is going to sell out (just like wiiU did) but it doesn't look like they have learned much in 5 years

Yea I'm gonna buy it just because I didn't have a Wii U and I did miss nintendo games, but I am NOT happy about the paid online. I Blame Microsoft for starting this shit
Wat da fuk so people are suggesting the free game is only a one month rental but that can't be right?

to summarize:
$300
no pack in
paid online
your "free game" (ala ps+/XBG) is a one month rental of a nes/snes game (which you don't get to keep)
$70 pro controller
you have to use your own cell phone for voice chat on the system
2.5 - 6 hour battery life
you can feel ice cubes in your joy con?

The only good thing about tonight are the JoyConBoyz might have real haptic feedback, which is a huge step up from the bullshit rumble feature other controllers have. Maybe Sony and MS will step up their game now because if it is true haptic feedback I've been waiting years for this.
That might also explain why the pro controller is 70 dollars.

Maybe open world Zelda will be so deep you can play it for a year and not get bored like GTA5
Back aboard the hype train!!!!!
WHY IS IT CALLED NEW DONK CITY?!

BAAAALLLINNN'
Same cycle with every Nintendo console. Buy it for Zelda, Mario, Smash Bros, Mario Kart. Play the shit out of it while people are interested. Let it collect dust for 3 years.
I bought a Wii U and I played it for like a month. It was fun for that one month tho.

You people who preordered for Zelda, you know it's going to be on the WiiU, right?

Ill preorder when it's back up on Amazon but from the looks of it that game will be visually underwhelming on a 60" TV. Need the portability.

You can play it on the small WiiU controller screen.
In 480p? Nah I'm good. Also the games coming after Zelda aren't on WiiU and I don't own a WiiU so I'm good with getting a Switch.
RE: The $70 pro controller I assume it's due to the haptic vibration like Bob said and it has an amiibo reader in it.
Also you don't get to keep your ps+ and gwg games either if you ever cancel, they're just rentals. Though unlike Nintendo you can play beyond that month, that part is pretty stupid of them.

Sometimes I like to walk more than twenty feet from the WiiU system.

I think I'm just going to get a ps4 pro and then get a switch around the holidays when mario comes out.

If I don't preorder a switch I'm guessing the trickle of awful information about how garbage the system is will put me off one by March. So I guess I have to preorder!
Can't you just buy it from here since it's region free? Or do you still get fucked over by the conversion rate? I don't know how your Monopoly money works.
I'm looking at it as a handheld device I can also happen to hook up to my TV. $300 isn't that bad and 32gb isn't that crazy for a handheld. I do agree 32gb is way too low, patches, etc. could kill that real fast. One advantage is they don't have to fully install the games like ps4/xb1 because of the carts so that will help some I guess. Thankfully it just uses microsd so that's cheap to increase.
Would be the same with the exchange
So the only two games I'd be interested in during the first 8 months are WiiU ports. I have a preorder in because why not, but between the price and the fact that it might not even be the best place to play Zelda I can't see any realistic possibility of me buying it at launch.
Has there been anything to say this thing is definitively more powerful than a WiiU? I know that's a low ass bar to get over, but this is a Nintendo made tablet we're talking about.
Bad and boujee num 1 on the charts brehs. We made it

Good point. I need to know Zelda differences as well before pre ordering. Otherwise I'll get the game on Wii U.
