Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo Switch private hands-on event Jan 13th (day after presentation)

http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/11/29/nintendo-switch-new-york-hands-on-event-to-take-place-on-january-13

Not sure if this was posted as I didn't see it through several pages.

Basically this is a private press-only event on 1/13 after the 1/12 presentation. Guess this means the presentation is a ND otherwise press would be attending something on the 12th, right? OR the 1/12 event is soley in Japan for Japan press and this one is for NA press?

Eitherway, let's just hope there is a shit-ton of info in these events and tons of game announcements.

i think they'll unveil some sort of huge announcement there. Maybe special controllers for each game as shown in the rumours? Huge sd card support? Portable battery support?

Really interested on what will happen that day, and what we'll learn. Also hoping the $250 rumour is true

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

1- I think this is not going to happen. They wouldn't reveal, or launch, such add-ons so early into the system's life. If history shows anything, they will wait at least a few months before releasing new peripherals/add-ons. The reason is simple: momentum. It doesn't need more than a decent launch line up to sell well initially, but it need lots of things to keep those sales going. They did this a lot with the 3DS.

2- Maybe? That would be nice, but I think they would show it on the Tokyo event, cause that is supposed to be the big one. 

3- Same as 1.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

The Jan 12th presentation is a live conference for some investors and I don't remember if press or retailers.

Maybe we can show some respect and not drag all over the internet these people's private event 2 months into the future.
This is borderline harassment.
