Nintendo confirmed the launch line-up:
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
1-2 Switch
Super Bomberman R
Skylanders Imaginators
Just Dance 2017

And that right there is why I am waiting until Mario Odyssey comes out to get one myself.  I can wait for Zelda, or even buy the Wii U version, and be alright.  The other games are remarkably uninspired for launch imo.

Also, the fact that there are 12 games for launch in Japan while the rest of us get 5 is kinda like a slap in the face for a worldwide launch.

Lol.

Maybe in 2019, and not a new one. Worst nintendo console ever.

surprised you'd go that extreme when the virtual boy was a thing. Plus we only know a bit of what to expect year 1. They haven't showed everything.

In retrospect. Has there been any console worth getting at launch? PS4, Bone, U, IMO all were not worth there price until after launch.

You're pretty much beta testers.

Ironically, Vita had one of the best launch lineups ever.

No.

Switch seems like a disaster to me. Not ruling it out after a few price drops, but not in the near future.

Pre-ordered one at Best Buy and one at Walmart.

Now I'm waiting for a chance to pre-order the Master Edition of Zelda somewhere. Been to two Gamestop stores and they can't take anymore orders. Have the collectors edition pre-ordered on Amazon as backup

I really hope Zelda being £60 on Amazon is some kind of placeholder or joke

What was the Vita`s launch lineup?

25 games, with the big games being:

Hot Shots Golf
Uncharted: Golden Abyss
Wipeout 2048

There were a bunch of other nice smaller games like Super Stardust Delta, Dynasty Warriors NEXT, Tales from Space, ModNation Racers, Little Deviants, BlazBlue, Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, Rayman Origins, Katamari plus Gravity Rush, Unit 13, and Silent Hill releasing a few months afterwards.

No chance. At £280 it's gonna bomb!!!

Owners tho will be throwing their Switch controllers at the TV, such will be their frustration with the controls!

Yeah! Preordered.
I must admit base on the response mainly from The Verge, Reuters and pretty much all mainstream press the presentation has been underwhelming.

Couple with higher than rumoured price and only one quality launch title it isn't looking good at all.

Horrible accessory prices. Looks no more powerful than the WiiU.

The Switch has the same signs of the WiiU written all over it I am afraid.

 

edit: Might cancel pre order and get Zelda on WiiU. I will sleep on it.
