"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".

Mr.Saturn

Hello, is that left-field?

I see you're coming out with a new iteration of Street Fighter II on the Switch.

http://www.capcom-unity.com/harrisony/blog/2017/01/12/ultra-street-fighter-ii-is-coming-to-nintendo-switch

Might explain the Hori stick, in case it gets picked up by the competitive players, but the only new characters they're adding are Shin forms, which generally get tournament banned. It's just Super Turbo otherwise.

The Inklings are in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Out in April.

Apparently online subscription comes with monthly free NES or SNES game, which is ok but not great,but SNES games will have a new online multiplayer, which could be cool!

Shin Megami Tensei was a really nice surprise I have to say.

RobbingBandit

So many questions so little sleep, see you all on the other side of midday.

pasta-solo

You can see the cart boxes here I think.

Corholio

The price of the Joy-Cons and individual parts, Dock etc could be a problem. Prices in the US seem quite high

Dock $90
Joy-Cons $80 for 2
Pro Controller $70

The Joy-Cons are going to have to be really good with that price.

69% Pro Controller
49$ JoyCon
79$ Pair JoyCon

Probably explains the high price. 2 Joycons with All wii motion stuff and HD rumble must be costly!
Surely 299$ will be 299e here no?

CiDeRmAn

No idea if the WiiU Pro Controller is going to work with the system.
Hopefully it will, and it'll keep the prices down.
My third party WiiU Pro Controller will work then, save a few bob

Mr E

$69.99 for pro controller, $49.99 for one joy con, $79.99 for 2.

sligeach

The accessory prices are coming in. Missed the Pro Controller price. The Joy-con is $50 each, $80 for a pair.

The dock is $90.

Amazon taking pre-orders at 7am, We might know something then.

I really like the Joy-cons, Mario, Zelda. Xenoblade 2 will be great too but seen very little. Nothing other than a short CGI trailer of Fire Emblem Warriors.

No specs, OS, VC, storage, cartridges and more.

Corholio

It has to be said that the Nintendo Official Store is always at the highest and beyond prices on stuff especially conversions, so will wait to see on that.

Switch will £279.99 on Nintendo UK store.

This is a problem
It's more expensive than the New 3DS XL
It's more expensive than both the standard PS4 and XBOne.
And I'm really not sure this is a good thing at all.

A €350 Switch is at least €100 too much for many, especially non Ninty adherents.

RobbingBandit

Probably €300-320 here so.

8 player local play would have some great beat em up potentials, pokemon too could very much utilise this.

Feck that means €350 here :mad:

That's a woeful price if it turns out to be that.

Disappointed in the conference to be honest.

Not enough games shown even for future release.

No interest in the Wii type games with motion controls.

Sounded like there is little 3rd party games on the horizon.

Can't believe Zelda (a game coming out on Wii U) and "1, 2, switch" are the only 2 announced launch games.

That's not good.

Only 49 days til Switchmas!

They kind of built this up, with talk of hardware surprises and there really wasn't any.
We got a better look at the hardware, not much though.
We got a look at more games, but a limited one at that.

I think there was tons to like but felt a little deflated, right up to the Zelda trailer.
That perked me up!
But do need to see where their account system is going.
What will the subscription pay for.
They will have to deliver a competing feature like Games With Gold/ PS+ games, it could be very interesting, particularly if they can start a monthly trickle of VC/Classic Nintendo titles to people that pay.

I'm still sold on it, can't wait!

The joycons look great and Arms with mate while having a few beers will be hilarious. Would have loved to see Mario kart but happy enough

Mario Kart for April.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: With Nintendo Switch, fans can enjoy the definitive version of Mario Kart 8 anywhere, anytime, even with up to eight friends in local wireless multiplayer. All your favorite tracks and characters return from the Wii U version, plus all DLC tracks and characters, and new characters join the roster, too: Inkling Girl and Inkling Boy from Splatoon, as well as King Boo, Dry Bones and Bowser Jr.! Plus, Battle mode has been revamped and includes Balloon Battle and Bob-omb Blast, with new courses such as Urchin Underpass and Battle Stadium, and returning ones like GCN Luigi’s Mansion and SNES Battle Course 1. Players can now carry two items at a time, including new items returning from previous Mario Kart games such as Boo (the item-stealing ghost) and the Feather, which gives players a high jump in Battle mode. Players can even choose to use a new Smart Steering feature, which makes driving and staying on the track easy for novice players and kids, even at 200cc. Play in TV mode in up to 1080p. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe launches in April.

Mr E

Happy birthday, dude!
