I apologize to anyone reading this thread without watching the video live.

Comments from others: Definitely needs the Iron Chef dubbers.
 
oh shit its releasing in the spring.... wow Nintendo way not to learn from the wii and wii u.

It only supports local play with 2 people but you announced 8 tablets can play together... So why can't 8 people fight using different switches.

Now splatoon is being shown.. hopefully we just have real games from now on and not gimmicks

its listed as splatoon 2. So hopefully its a lot of new maps. 4vs 4 team battles turf wars has new factions and weapons. all brand new weapons , all new maps.

Control with joycon , pro controller , on the tv or in handheld mode. Also gyro controls...


Internet play also local multiplayer

and he almost forgot splatoon 2... is coming this summer.....

real world Mario ? he is in a city with taxis and sky scrapers running around

he is running around with veggies in his hand to throw.

Looks interesting. I'm not the biggest 3d Mario fan myself.

Mario Odyssey ... his hat has eyes ????

First time since 64 and sunshin they made a large sandbox. Theme is he is in an unknown world. Uses landscapes from the real world. Hat offes action only avalible on the switch..

Holdiay 2017

Okay 3rd party stuff. Maybe they can save launch

Square
Dragon Quest 10 / 11 in japan.... (guess no English copy) Heroes 1 and 2 just announced

Something Atlus powered by unreal. Looks good graphicly

have they announced anything for launch yet ? I don't think this has any games except 1 2 switch at this point.

skyrim is official

They are excited they finally got to work with Nintendo . Talking about all the great stuff Nintendo has done and the switch. No idea about release date.

Is 1 2 Switch included with console? What about JoyCon Grip? Looks like they came in below my estimate. Right about $300 though. :)

this is really rough. They have guys up on stage just talking about a game in concept stages.

Later this year EA is putting out fifa on the switch. Hey if your at the park... stop kicking around a real soccer ball... play fifa instead on your switch.

EA is seriously just announcing one game ? wow.

Well 3rd parties are done now.

well the montage looks better , saw some sonic , Mario kart , mine craft on it.

Is that it? They didn't show many games whatsoever. I think the WiiU had a larger software library at launch.
 
switch control , l r joy cons , wrist straps , grip. Dock , hdmi cable , ac adapter. all included

Pro is separate. Two different ones.

Two bundles , one with 1 blue 1 red joy con.. one with grey ones.

So yea

Okay Europe and America is coming up
 
Two Versions, only differ by the color of the JoyCons.

SKU #1: Two Gray JoyCons.
SKU #2: One Neon Red, One Neon Blue JoyCon.
 
Reggie is talking about Zelda .

Its going to be in nyc tomorrow.


Ianuma (spelling ? ) is going to tell us when itlaunches... He don't know. Gotta go to toyko.. So the usa stuff is done.

Nope dude cstill can't tell us. gotta tell us other shit.

January 21st to start preordering in japan.

Stll wont tlel us when Zelda launches.

Oh 1 last thing
 
Reggie actually said something without laughing 'what you just saw was all the games', I kept thinking "WHAT GAMES?".

Let's switch back to Tokyo...

I am assuming the treehouse event tomorrow at 9:30 is when we find out but most stores will be taking preorders already. So I dunno.

Guess I will preorder Zelda , Mario kart and smash. Its not like the games will be hard to get anyway.


But I really think Nintendo has lost the plot. If this thing had so little software they should have held it and launched in the fall.
 
They should have delayed the launch until Holiday 2017.
Brit , I love you right now ... bro love we have been in lock step the whole event .

The event was super disappointing. I don't think Nintendo understands why the wii u failed. They should have come out with just real games . Sold to the real gamer and saved the motion shit for cnn or bravo specials.

They needed a good 3-4 strong launch titles but the only thing I could figure out is launching with the system is 1 2 switch and Zelda
 
Hmm, the Mario Odessey game, which I'm sure will be terrific, looks like it would have on the Wii or maybe even the GameCube.

Maybe it's a bigger world than could be done on previous hardware?

Hopefully it'll be larger world than what would be enabled on a 1Gig RAM for Games than on the WiiU.
