I'm kind of mixed. The online subsciption sucks and the loan a game for a month for your money is an insult rather than gesture. We also should know if you only pay one payment for all the users on the same device, or do you have to pay everyone individually.
I'm still waiting for joycons with D-pad and/or Wii Remote support and if I can play Splatoon 2 using the joycon camera as a pointer. One thing they got right (kind of): it is the PRO controller you need to play on the D-pad.
There should also be a home model that comes without the tablet.

SMO looks retarded.
Zelda, it's hard to know. Looks a lot different than earlier Aonuma Zelda's, but it's Aonuma in question and he knows how to fuck things up.
Splatoon 2, depends on the controls. Dual analog, no thanks. Don't care about analog+motion controller either.
Arms, looked fun in the trailer, but after running onto an actual gameplay video, it doesn't look nearly as interesting anymore.
Bomberman, Street Fighter, Puyo puyo Tetris all look fun.

I am excited for the games but not much else. The Switch looks nice but the other urghhness is like :T

I'm one of those people that plays my portable consoles exclusively at home. We do exist. I've met others out in the wild. :) When I'm out, I'm out, and not playing games. But is there a reason that such things should be totally absent from the system UI? I think not. I hope it's fixed, but hope doesn't sell me a Switch.

Me, I'm excited. Xenoblade 2 is where its at.

I'd prefer a conventional system too, but perhaps they didn't see a way to combine both groups? I don't know how it works.

My excited was fatal wounded last year with the rumors about the Switch being an hybrid machine, killed with Nintendo's teaser that confirmed its hybrid nature and buried when they revealed the price.

That's not to say that I won't eventually get it, tho, as it will be the games that sell me the console or not. But it won't happen neither this nor next year, that's for sure.

I have trouble imagining it's not possible. If that IS the case, then the ball has been dropped all the same. I played the whole Dead Nation campaign on the Vita with voice chat through the system speakers. It's NOT a taxing procedure to execute. From the original Xbox, to the PS4, there has been a uniformity, with advancements to the standard setup. Now we need another device to supplement what every other system has been able to do on it's own. I don't buy it. Until somebody can prove otherwise, it's lazy BS. And if there is a technical reason to omit such a bacic, industry-standard feature, it's still a fuck up. In fact, that would be even more egregious, because that level of duh-duh cannot be fixed with a simple reversal of decision.

Still very excited. Day 1.

i am still excited... but i won't get it day one... actually... i might get it when xenoblade 2 release...

I'd like to see Nintendo continue in hardware and like the idea of other people buying it but for me personally I only want to play Mario Odyssey and think I'll rent the console and game just for that. I just can't imagine paying close to £60 per game or an online subscription. It's actually nice to see something I don't actually want because I'm a huge gadget freak and keep buying tech I barely use. PS4 pro and Scorpio is where I'll be spending my money console wise.

Went in a game store today and didn't see the Switch shown anywhere. I've a feeling the pre-orders may be healthy for the console but can see it tanking badly after the launch at least here in the uk.
