27 percent of GameStop's PowerUp Rewards members who are aware of the Nintendo Switch plan to buy the console. This pre-launch purchase intent metric is in line with that of the Xbox One at a similar point in time. The figure could go higher after Nintendo's Switch news event in January.

All I know is Wii U like Dreamcast had a successful launch but trailed off after that.

Doesn't mean much yet. It just means 27 people are die hard fans.

I need: price, battery life, and launch line up first.

Even then I am a bit gun shy because of that HUGE price drop the 3ds got in the first month.

Theres only 100 PowerUp Rewards members?

Same with the PSVita, launch doesn't say much these days, its really what happens after, obviously any nintendo platform that launches will have a lot of media attention and there are many Nintendo loyalists that will just buy the console, which is fine, but its really after the first lets say 8m consoles we get to see how well the console actually does.
