So I have a younger brother and we both can't wait for the Switch, but then I just realized...

Will my brother and I both have to buy the dock portion of the Switch? (Because there is no reason to have two Switch docks in our house).

Or will Nintendo sell a Switch containing the handheld and dock, and a Switch with only the handheld.

Hopefully they anounnce something about this on January 12.

 

Laura Dale confirmed you could buy Switch dock seperately on the launch date

No she didnt said on launch date, she said "some time after launch".

This is whole quote:

"The intention is that some time after launch additional docks will be sold to place in different rooms if you have multiple TVs".

On that Nintendo is also counting. :D

But IMO whats most important is full and undivided (like every time before) Nintendo support and focus one just one platform, that basically means much higher number of Nintendo games and bigger attention to just one console than before.

From standpoint of 3rd party, definitely some multiplatform games now can be more popular on Nintendo console than before because some people will love to play some of those multiplatform games on to go and they cant to that on XB1/PS4 for instance.

That's why I can see The Switch being huge if done right. Can you imagine playing Skyrim on the go or maybe Destiny? Not going to lie, I'm just drooling thinking about the possibilities. 

With good marketing, good pricing and good launch and 1st year line up, Switch can definitely be huge, and for now things pointing that Switch will have good marketing, good pricing and strong launch and 1st year lineup.
