"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".

I'll be disappointed if I log on here and find people talking about how great Zelda is. Should be spending that time playing.

I've the day booked off, may comment at the pee/refreshment breaks!

What if we need to charge our switches in the dock?

RobbingBandit

Someone could become switchman thereby being contractually obligated to spend every nanosecond of march 3rd on switch related tasks and by not doing so will be denied a switch in the launch window, we need a contract drawn up ASAP, where is a solicitor when you need one.

Japanese developers have been sharing their thoughts on the Switch in this weeks Famitsu, the HD Rumble seems to be the main aspect they are most interested and excited about.

Aokay

Just curious if anyone here has pre ordered something online from Gamestop.ie?
I have before and chosen express shipping at checkout with an post.
Anything I've ever pre ordered with them has always arrived the day before. just wondering if that's still the case? It was a big factor with me pre ordering the Switch online with them.

Mr E

I got a call from Gamestop today. I thought "uh oh" when I saw their number. Stock shortage? Looking for bigger deposit?

Nope. They just got their accessories list and wanted to know if I wanted to preorder any of them. Jesus.

I asked how much the case was, and he said the price wasn't on the list. He said that it was the official case (not third party, I explicitly asked that) and that I'd get 20% off (or maybe 25%, I can't remember).

I'll verify during the week.

What games and accessories did you go for ?

Didn't go for anything new. Sticking with console and Zelda for now.

Not the best stuff though.

Wouldn't have minded 20% off the pro controller

Is it still just the same 5 games comekng out for the system day 1?.

Zelda and what really else day 1 as I normally get 3 games in day 1 and I really can't think of anything else to get with it..

I am even thinking skylanders of all games just to have something to play on the thing.

At the retail end its Zelda, 1 2 switch, just dance, skylanders, issic (retail in the US no idea here)

There has to be more then that day, 1

I really hope there is going to be more then that as I can't wait to get the console but if there is going to be no games? I am nearly thinking twice

MilesMorales1

5 retail games, plus more digital stuff and Virtual Console.

I think I'll probably get "I am setsuna" and maybe "binding of Isaac"

obviously getting Zelda

Bomberman is at retail but its €65. Don't think I'd pay that for it. It's a €20 game at most.

Cue the headlines that Nintendo are taking their first steps towards going third party.

I don't mind 5 or 6 launch day games then a good stream off games planned for Year one its better than 20 odd games day one and very little releases in year one.

If thats true, I think its smart. Sure don't dilute the brand and **** like that, but I don't see the harm in having the virtual console on a smartphone. People do it already like, through jailbreaking and custom firmwares, might as well make a few quid off it.

Edit - There's nowt wrong with a small launch line up and then a steady dripfeed of games till christmas.

Snipperclips is rumoured to be a launch day game now, though that could just be for the US and Japan.

Thats one i want day one. I dont want to pay 65 but i dont view it as a 20 game. Games collection have it for £39 which I'd happily pay but i want it for that weekend at the very least and I'd have the feeling I'd be waiting for it til monday from them
