As a lifelong Mario fan, this teaser is the biggest "shut up and take my money" moment for me (besides from Blizzard games) in I-don't-know-how-many-years. Gorgeous.

So glad the scalpers snatched up all the Master edition BotW. I've kind of got a personal policy to never pay more than $100 for a collectors edition of a game and the only different between Master and Special was the master sword statue for 30 bucks. Not really much of a statue guy and once the sword bent(and we know it would, hell the one they showed off on the treehouse was bent) it would bother me to no end.

Whatever, I got my shiekah slate switch carrying case so I'm happy.

Paid online is the most disappointing thing for me. Huge turnoff but I'm eventually gonna have to pay up if I want to play Gen 8 Pokemon games online. Paid online is probably the crappiest part of console gaming (even worse than poor framerates)

The entire presentation was kinda boring to me. Mario and Zelda both look AMAZING but for the most part the presentations were either teaser trailers that don't show anything or some uncharismatic guy talking on stage for a few minutes. Some of the trailers do atleast have me interested (SMT and Xenoblades for example I'll have to keep an eye on) so I guess they did their job.

tangentially related, has anyone seen the master edition for WiiU? Are they even making one? I haven't been able to find it or an article saying they were switch exclusive

If they did exist, they were all gobbled up by scalpers a long time ago.

Ultra Street Fighter II is a pleasant surprise. Hope that they port over Third Strike and especially Alpha 3 (fix V-ism please) as well. All of these have a nice retro/nintendo vibe to it that really suit Switch.

Right now, the Switch is still promising to me. The launch lineup is quite frankly slim if I am being honest.
Xenoblade 2 is a really good surprise though. I am not a Zelda fan so I really don't play that.

I think what would really entice me is a new Monster Hunter game. I still play MH3U on the Wii U to this day.

I am curious what they mean by paid online services.

And how the eshop will now work given there is no region locking. Will it automatically convert to your local currency if you buy online games or are you still paying USD then paying whatever converted local currency your credit card bill will reflect?

Don't plan on buying on launch, will wait for December 2017 as to what games are announced and if we end up getting new bundles already rather just console only.

Did anyone in Europe manage to get the Zelda Master edition? It would be nice to get the cooler version since the region lock is gone.

70€ for a pro controller and 80€ for another set of joycons is not cool at all. This console otherwise fits me perfectly and the hardware turns me on, but having to pay that much just to be able to play vs properly might be enough to put me off on pure principle. Fuck you Nintendo.

Exactly. I know Monster Hunter is very popular in portable format in Japan, but for me it's a game to be enjoyed with a decent controller and, even better, a big screen. I played all of the ones on PSP, but I actually passed on 3DS. MH3U on Wii U is so good for MH fans.

The Switch is basically ideal for MH.

On another note, does anyone think we could use the Wii U pro controller with the Switch? I don't see why not, but Nintendo will probably want to cash out on those $70 new ones...

Some positives and some negatives. The lack of games at launch, pricey controllers and paid online are a bit of a disappointment. However I can definitely see the potential for this system. Probably not getting this system at launch, but once Mario comes along I'll check it out.

What ?

That's exactly what they do.

Thats exactly what Uncharted and GTA did, and you could use Fire Emblem as an example, last 2 games are the most succesful games in the series, both games while not forgetting their hardcore roots, brought casual stuff so more people can enjoy those games (along with some decent marketing for once)

Which, like i said, is the most important stuff in the switch success, and so long, IMO, nintendo has been doing a pretty decent job.

The message nintendo wanted to give with the switch is pretty clear, at least compared to the disaster that was the WiiU

About the Mario game. I know that Mario is a plumber from Brooklyn. So him being in New York doesn't feel like it breaks the universe like Sonic in the real cities in adventure and 2006 does.

But I feel like they shoud have made it into a more cartoony brooklyn, because now it kinda looks like a Mario GTA mod. Like two games mashed together, haha.

It seems to me like there are still plenty of cartoony parts/ Nintendo characters and references that would still give it the Nintendo charm, fortunately

When is it ever said he's from Brooklyn outside of that shitty movie that isn't canon?
