If this isn't confirmation of USB C for charging then I don't know what is. The fact they are advertising a charge cable that goes from USB A to USB C pretty much confirms that a charger will not be included with the Switch. Just use whatever cell phone charger you already own.

Hey! They got SONY on my amiibo! Wait a minute. Two great gaming tastes that game great together!

Yay!

Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

And is this good or bad? I'm not too familiar about different kinds of chargers.

USB C is the best and new standard.

Faster and more user friendly.

Excellent news! It's not a stupid proprietary connector, and USB-C is an excellent connector for all I know.
