Hype! Hope more blockbuster games come.

The subscription pricing looks okay, hope they throw in more virtual console systems and games..

Any good tempered glass for sale now?

The charger it comes with is worldwide voltage and it's only just a usb c charger. You can replace it with any usb c or even normal usb chargers.

confirm worldwide voltage? any source? my friend was asking me this cos she's getting a set from US.:o

Confirmed based on the FCC documents. It includes the voltage range and maximum current of the charger too. I posted a link to this a few pages back.

Besides even if you don't use the stock charger, you can always just use your own charger since it's just a standard usb c port

Is the dock usb port c also, or a different a/c adapter input?

the dock itself is usb c but the dock has usb type a ports

Inside the dock

Switch-Dock-front-and-back_1484564852.jpg

-AC Adaptor port looks the same as the port inside the dock which are usb c
-Back is 1 x USB 3.0
-Side are 2 x USB 2.0
-Both are Type A
-HDMI is output via USB C Displayport alt mode (2 lanes hence limited to 1080p so that the extra USB ports on the dock can function) with conversion to HDMI inside the dock
-It's suspected that the audio comes out via Displayport too since that's an optional part of the Displayport alt mode and the Fig 32 in the link below does not show a USB DAC

The dock is definitely not using the USB C HDMI alt mode because of the following 2 reasons.
1. The HDMI alt mode specs were only just finalised just in September which would delay testing/certification and release.
2. HDMI alt mode requires all 4 lanes on USB C to function hence the USB 2.0/3.0 ports would fail to function.

Fig 32 shows the dock conversion and usb ports.

On the FCC site, the test reports (Both DFS and NII) have info on the voltage/current ratings of both the unit and charger in section 2. Also tested was the Wii Ethernet Adapter

http://nintendoeverything.com/miyam...base-can-be-ported-to-switch-in-about-a-year/

Analyst Hideki Yasuda wrote up a new article on GamesIndustry Japan earlier today. There’s one part of the piece pertaining to third-parties that stood out to us in particular.

Yasuda talks about how many investors were anticipating major overseas third-party games to be announced for Switch, but the timing wasn’t right (due to E3 being a few months away, etc.). He then mentions that NIS is making Disgaea 5 Complete for the system’s launch, which used to be a PS4-only title. NIS was never really on Nintendo platforms before, and their few Wii / DS games were buried among other games leading to a lack of success. 3DS also didn’t receive a high amount of support from NIS because of its unique specifications. With Switch though, the company is bringing over a PS4 title and on day one.

Yasuda was in attendance at Nintendo’s Corporate Management Policy Briefing, and relayed a comment from Shigeru Miyamoto. Miyamoto said that games developed with PC as a base can be ported to Switch in about a year. The report also adds that the console was revealed to third-parties last summer. It’s thought that we could therefore see major multiplatform titles starting from the fall season.

Sweet Jesus!! Ima buy some blank TAG216 and use my old note 4 android to try write to them when Switch lands!

Edit... apparently only works with NTAG215... tmd harder to find...

or you could just buy a cheap amiibo to overwrite into wolf link, the less popular characters can go as low as $9.90
