Their next console should just be released at a random date in a mystery box...

Well to be fair, it sounds like this device is being rushed out just to meet the fiscal year ending.

Launch window (while having some big hitters) is relatively quite thin. And that free online nonsense until it is ready to be paid is just DC because their full online service is not even ready it.

Never really thought about it, but it actually makes a lot of sense.

"and is not currently compatible. Support for certain controllers may be considered for a future update"
Yes.... YESS!!

I would love to use the pro controllers I already own as opposed to buying those extremely expensive ones.

c'mon guys. the thing doesn't launch for another 5 weeks. be patient and just place your pre-order. there will be plenty of time to discuss the details after it launches.

Sarcasm?

If they would've have nothing to offer in this regard, the answer would look like Netflix and stuff. But they say they have nothing to announce. This more says to me they keep features regarding Online/Virtual Console and so on under covers to reveal at a later point.

That would be totally acceptable if the console wasnt launching in SIX WEEKS!

Ya it seems odd that they still have so many unanswered questions this close to launch, I thought thats what the presentation and subsequent interviews & hands on impressions were for.

I hope they do a pre-launch Nintendo Direct or something that clears alot of this up and shows some of their post-launch titles in more detail with launch dates for Spring titles.

This whole secretive gig they have going on with the switch is hurting them a lot.

I'm not sure if people realize that as of right now, we don't know if voice chat is going to be possible at launch. How on earth is that acceptable? That information has to be known at the very least. Nintendo has to come out with more information about this console and it has to happen very soon.

I have the feeling they have heard the criticism of what's been shown of their subscription system and they are scrambling to get something better ASAP, and that's why they're being vague about it. At least I hope so.

That's completely wrong.

Their original announcement was that they will detail their upcoming online services at a later date. The answers to Kotaku are in line with that. Nintendo isn't going to make their announcement through Kotaku.

Exactly, Nintendo will reveal everything on a later date, why reveal everything to a crappy online magazine??

Well, if they said that they will only comment more about online and VC in the future, kotaku really should have seen those answers comming.
