"As proof that Nintendo maintains strong enthusiasm for the dedicated game system business", Iwata adds, "let me confirm that Nintendo is currently developing a dedicated game platform with a brand new concept under the development codename 'NX'."

And...that's it. Iwata says Nintendo will share more information about the new hardware "next year".

Cool, the NES was unveiled at CES!

Pre ordered! I asked the chap in Gamestop about multiple SKU's, didn't know what I was talking about, all he said was I'd be refunded the difference if I paid over the price.

Mr E

What kind of deposit did you pay?

[Deleted User]

I got a GS voucher for Xmas, haven't actually bought anything off them since PS4 launch day, I assume I can use that as a deposit on a switch?

I paid 20e a few weeks ago in GS Cork.
Was told if i cancel i can reuse it for store credit.
Tought it be better to preorder now rather than be in a Nes Mini shortage.

Latest rumors is 17th March in NA, but 24th March for Europe. I really do not need to be waiting any longer at this stage 😀

50. Didn't say there was a minimum payment though.

Did someone say smyths were taking pre orders a while ago? Id do game stop but i dont think my local will be doing midnight launches in a small town.

With Microsoft officially cancelling Scalebound about an hour ago, might be worth getting onto Platinum to resurrect it for Switch. Kamiya seems to have a very good relationship with Nintendo as well. Another exclusive gone for Microsoft as well.

Yes, they're taking 20 euro deposits.

Listing of Switch games from Gamestop (Germany definitely not America) which may not mean that much.

Corholio

It's actually from Germany, 'Platzhalter' :P

Looks a bit fake as well, Dragon Quest X?

Gamestop just asked for just a fiver when I pre ordered the Switch last December

MilesMorales1

Apparently its real, but Gamestop has false listings all the time or listings that don't turn out to be much.

Pac1Man

And most of those games are 'Not Safe for Work'. :eek:

pasta-solo

Gamestop will throw any oul shoyte on their system to secure preorders, even games rumoured will often find their way on there if it means a fiver in the till. I wouldn't take it as them knowing anything that we don't, just pure guesswork on their part I imagine.

CastorTroy

A bargain at only €100.77. Definitely Gamestop.

Or trade in 5 new games and get it for €80.77.

As for Scalebound, I think I read someone say that since Microsoft funded it, that it can't be released elsewhere. Maybe they can reuse assets/ideas in a new game

High praise considering their shield was a great piece of kit, just there wasn't really a market for a dedicated gaming tablet

Pokemon Stars maybe make an appearance on friday?

I need to preorder this, but from whom?
I don't want to get a "it's not you, it's me" text from Smyth's or GameStop, cancelling my Switch preorder on the 15th of March.

Play the field and preorder from both.

Might just order from Amazon, though love to support bricks and mortar.
I can see myself investing in the Switch and three original games, don't think I'll be spending initial money on rereleases of games I've already got.

I found this hilarious.

It’s not out until March, but 85 people have already left a ‘review’ for the Nintendo Switch on Amazon.

http://www.gamespew.com/2017/01/amazon-already-85-reviews-nintendo-switch/

Just a few of the reviews.

If you already think about them as "Toilet sessions" then I think you have digestive tract issues that really need to be looked at. Remember kids, for the sake of a healthy sphincter, don't loiter your hole on the toilet bowl! Remember - Drop a deuce, then vamoose!

I'm going to steal that for work, as a staff safety announcement!
Save money on laxatives, lubricants and fibre later!

Seems kinda quiet the last couple days with rumours doesn't it.

Also, anyone watch that 4min video on ign, beyond talk about switch. Jaysus those lads talk about all the rumours as if they are all confirmed facts. Nobody knows anything as fact until Friday.

Hate ign but can't help myself reading their site.

MilesMorales1

There's only like 63 hours to go. Probably not much to leak.

I remember that initial rumours had it launching later on in 2015!
Boy, how wrong they were

I'm just delighted we'll finally be salt free in a few days.

Nintendo invited pro splatoon players to switch event the day after the presentation

looks like splatoon could be a launch game

Mr E

I just preordered in Gamestop. There were only 6 others, so I should be guaranteed a console on launch day.

I was told that trade in value on the Wii U is a miserable €90 (and will drop more before March).

Depending on whether or not there is content transfer, I'll aim to put mine on Adverts next week.

I got great value out of it, to be fair...
