Basically the most powerful handheld ever released by far, if you're looking for a marginally powerful Home Console this isn't that.

Overall I like it though, it's not really a "next-gen" home console, it's more like a Super-Charged Portable WiiU.
If you wanted a substantial power increase over the WiiU you'll be disappointed though.

Pretty much. It's a portable Wii U, more or less. It'll be a nice handheld, but a mediocre home console.

So let's see here:
- The official name is Nintendo Switch
- The Hybrid rumors are true!
- We've got NBA 2K and from the looks of it, Skyrim.
- A new 3D Mario game!
- What looks like Splatoon 2
- The March 2017 release date is still on.
God Damn It, I want more!!!!!!

Idk if I would call it a hybrid just yet... It just sits on a docking station which appears to be charging it and displaying the output onto the TV. Unless the docking station provides extra significant performance, it is silly to call it a hybrid.

So the Eurogamer rumour was true. Lame.

At least there was a 3D Mario that actually looked like a real 3D Mario from the 3 seconds they showed it, but maybe not.

It's EXACTLY what was announced by leaks months ago, nothing to be surprised about. We still need the real information about price, performance and games. Mario Kart, Mario 3D and another late port of Skyrim are nothing to overhype IMO....

Wow, already depressing people in action and the usual suspects wishing for this to fail lol

The console looks great so far, this feel like a new concept and something that could fly high with tthe right games and the right marketing.

We still need info but is looking good.

Also, very surprising to see Bethesda on Nintendo lol

Are you saying this device will bring Nintendo back to the top?

New Splatooooooooon !!!

Are we sure that the Wii U Splatoon wasn't used, just for this reveal?

I'm also trying to remember if that was 3D World in there, but Game Xplain will have me covered shortly. I almost wanted to say 2K12 isntead of 2K17, but that's the jaded Nintendo fan in me talking. No mistaking Skyrim though.
