Nintendo Switch is powered by the performance of the custom Tegra processor. The high-efficiency scalable processor includes an NVIDIA GPU based on the same architecture as the world’s top-performing GeForce gaming graphics cards.

The Nintendo Switch’s gaming experience is also supported by fully custom software, including a revamped physics engine, new libraries, advanced game tools and libraries. NVIDIA additionally created new gaming APIs to fully harness this performance. The newest API, NVN, was built specifically to bring lightweight, fast gaming to the masses.

Gameplay is further enhanced by hardware-accelerated video playback and custom software for audio effects and rendering.

We’ve optimized the full suite of hardware and software for gaming and mobile use cases. This includes custom operating system integration with the GPU to increase both performance and efficiency.

NVIDIA gaming technology is integrated into all aspects of the new Nintendo Switch home gaming system, which promises to deliver a great experience to gamers.

So, a mobile processor with 'integrated' (pascal?) GPU chip. I wonder what series it is from the Tegra family, but doesn't look too powerful.

e.g https://www.nvidia.com/object/tegra-4-processor.html

Its Tegra, but considering the date it will probably use the Tegra X2 which comes with a Pascal GPU

I'm still sold on the idea that the system will have FFVII remake on it, as Square is a developer. Besides Syrim was shown.

Coming from that company that made the GameCube controllers (to me still the best controllers to this date), it's sure doesn't look that great. And it's even worse when you consider the removable parts...

So is it going to be the successor to the 3DS as well?

The concept is everything I wanted it to be. Now eagerly for the technical specs.

Edit: Haha my initial sober message didn't convey my excitement properly. I was grinning like a fool the whole trailer :D. Let's go!

Haven't been this interested in Nintendo seriously since GameCube. Will wait for more games and specs.

The one I posted is the pro controller, the joy-con one (with the removable parts) is even worse.

And I agree, considering I have a Gamecube and a Playstation 2 controller connected to my PC.

Do we really care about controller visual design, as long as it fits nicely in your hand and the buttons naturally fall under your fingers? But the detachable-fused one is ugly, that's for sure.

I expect that not to be the final design of the controller. If not one variant in the works or being planned.

It's cartridge based and they look like the 3ds cartridges...it would be awesome if I could put my 3ds games in there and play them on the big screen, not likely though right?

This isn't about the visual design...which isn't exactly good either.
