    I don't know about anyone else but I feel extremely excited about Nintendo Switch and have no reservations about the upcoming console at all!!!

    Let's share our unbridled enthusiasm with each other!

    Oh wow, now you can walk your very large dog and play Zelda at the same time! How convenient!

    Holy plumbs! Now you can go on a plane and play Skyrim on your propped up console, kind of like at home!

    Wow! And now it's actually exactly like at home, because the man has seamlessly continued his gameplay from the plane, through the taxi-ride home to his living room! All praise the extremely long-lived battery for facilitating this! Also: I'm glad the man survived his plane journey due to a lack of terrorism!!! Hooray!!!

    Oh great! I know from ten long years on this forum that we all love being hipsters in the back of a van, and now we can play Mario Kart with friends while engaging in hipsterism too! Lives changed!!!

    Oh wow! A new 3D Mario! And even better, it turns out the Nintendo Switch base unit goes really well with some random candles and a pot!!!

    Fresh!!! It's Splatoon, the game where you spew negativity ink around any fucking thread in this forum about new hardware a range of fun environments!!!

    And cheering on the Splatoon players is an entire arena of positive people, positively cheering for the incredibly positive Nintendo Swtich and its positivalicious catalogue of games, just like this thread is and always will!!!

    I didn't see the picture for a moment I was worried, the mention of a dog got new thinking Molyneux was making a game for it

    Whether or not I'm day one depends on price and battery life. Either way I'll probably cave at some point and get one, because Nintendo.

    I'll get Breath of the Wild for Wii U, though.

    If it's hacked to pieces R4-style, I'll buy one and love it.

    Besides the too-small-for-its-case screen and probable battery wheeze, it's a lovely bit of tech.
  • Customer testimonial:

    Things had been going bad for some time. Doreen no longer seemed interested in me and had started taking about 4 evening classes every week, whether it be pottery, or bee keeping or what have you. Bizzarely, whatever the class she would always come back disheveled, slathered in various off-white juices and walking like a cowboy after a particularly brutal cattle drive. I remember she came back especially filthy after a Eurasian Beat Poetry lesson. She had also started to use a second phone, which I felt was odd - she claimed this was because all of her classmates had failed to get hold of her on her main phone, so this was just for her evening classes. Strange, I really need to contact O2 about that.

    Anyway, I showed her the switch video when it was announced and she turned to me and said "That's lovely, dear". I think that means she's really interested in it. Now, I don't want to put the cart before the horse, but I think the Switch could save my marriage. Thank you Mr Nintendo!

    Heartwarming.
    Skerret's posting is ok to trip balls to and read just to experience the ambience but don't expect any content.

  • The new Zelda might be the best game ever so although I don't like buying extra screens because I live in a tiny flat with space for only one screen and I'm not getting a screen out when I'm out because that's not the way I roll and I don't even have a smart phone and my last mobile console was a Gameboy Advance SP and I never got that out in public because it looked like a child's toy and I'm a man with biceps so a mobile console with a screen doesn't fit my self-image or the image of me those who love me have so I'd be paying for a screen I'll never use and that's totally ostentatious and perhaps even obscene in a world where people are dying although admittedly they're not dying due to a lack of access to screens nonetheless I'll probably buy this Nintendo screen or the previous Nintendo screen to play Zelda because it looks glorious and gorgeous but I'd prefer a screen-less version without the screen.
  • I think it looks really interesting and fun and I'll certainly be considering it.

    I’d forgotten about those. So cool, yet I never bought one.
  • I'd still like to get one just to have for the gadgetiness of it.
  • I reckon the GB Micro was about the size of a Joy-con. Proof that tiny controllers can work, mayber?
  • I traded in a load of old games for ps3 I don't and won't play again. I think I've probably paid off my Switch already.

    I think joycon is a lot smaller than a GBA Micro, but I haven't seen one in ages though

    Looking at the dimensions being bandied about for the Switch, longwise the Micro is the same/slightly smaller than the Joycon.
