Honestly US$299 i can still digest. I just don't like what they're doing now. Its nintendo, they always sell overpriced hardware. Look at the wii and their accessories. ***** pieces of cheap plastic so expensive. The 3DS also, compared to vita can really feel like kena chop carrot.

They are relying on a few games like zelda, mario kart and splatoon to justify that price tag. And then there's the stupid nintendo online payment thing. Really? Of all the things u can copy from competitors, u copy the online pay system?

Hopefully less than sgd$500 , so far seeing the graphics and games don't have the urge to buy on day one ....

To answe a poster here , 3ds will definitely be replace if switch becomes successful

Well it's free money why not?

PS4 user base is 50mil, if only 1/5 of them are paying monthly fee is still quite a sizable income. And remember servers need money to run. But of course I believe not that much. And considering they don't allow name change. Totally not worth even considering the free games.

I guess they will probably sell at S$499. A lot of the lower specs I still can tahan but the onboard storage of 32GB is ridiculous, even if the games are smaller size than PS4/XBone. You buy the set, then still need to fork out another $200 for accessories. No way man.

Switch set has included docking, joy-con, joy-grip, joy-con strap, power adapter, HDMI cable. All basic accessories are included unless u want to buy procontroller. Now SD card is cheap and affordable.

makes you wonder will they have XL version now that I am rewatching the announcement

I think the focus is the joy con. really a lot of technology in it. motion sensing. rumble. and they made it so that it can be used by 2 players. IR sensors to detect hand gestures.

and then the docking system.


for those not sure whether to buy or not. don't buy. I bet you are expecting COD and Battlefield. you are better off getting a PC for those.

but it is sad they didn't bring any games to the tables that shows off gameplay that can only work with the Switch. oh. 1-2-switch.

actually ARMS got a bit of potential. on top of the scissor-paper-stone concept. the control I feel is a bit of twin stick movement. a bit of throw back to Virtual On feel.

this kinda control. if there is a Katamari game I will buy for sure
