It is too early to elaborate on the details of this project, but we hope to share more information with you next year,&#8221; said the late Satoru Iwata said.\u00a0\u00a0 The machine he was referring to is the Nintendo Switch, revealed on Thursday 20 October 2016, although sadly, he passed away in summer of 2015, so would not get to deliver that news himself.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Possible Nintendo Switch specifications<\/h3>\n<p>We&#8217;ve seen what it looks like but we will have to wait to find out the Switch&#8217;s\u00a0actual capabilities based on the video.\u00a0 You will have a home base and the controllers can be hooked on the side of the console.\u00a0 The console can be used remotely and has a kickstand to hold it up.\u00a0\u00a0 The controllers are small for the remote playing as well as a full hand size.<\/p>\n<p>Will the video be capable of\u00a04K Ultra HD video streaming, no one knows.\u00a0 Rumors have the AMD GPU as the processor, it must be at least 1080p, no idea on the battery life but it must be as good as the Wii U or better.\u00a0 It seems you can insert SD Cards or the games are going with that format instead of using disks.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"nolinks\" style=\"text-align: center;\">What software will the Nintendo Switch\u00a0software be like?<\/h3>\n<p>It has been confirmed that alongside The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for Wii U, which has now been put back to 2017, an enhanced version will also be available for Nintendo\u00a0Switch from launch day. Nintendo hasn&#8217;t officially revealed what other games will be released for sure, but several did appear in the preview trailer, including <a class=\"vglnk\" title=\"Link added by VigLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.walmart.com\/ip\/Splatoon-Wii-U\/43086178\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Splatoon<\/a>, an enhanced version of Mario Kart 8, a Mario platform that looks like (and could be) Super Mario 3D World, a Switch version of Skyrim, and NBA 2K17.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, it is great that Nintendo has created something that will take the place of the disappointing Wii U and why would I need any game boys from this point.\u00a0 The key for the Switch are the graphics. If they cannot compete against the Xbox or PS4 they will drop in profit and come up with another dud.\u00a0 But the Switch looks really promising and March 2017 cannot get here soon enough.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nintendo announces the Switch game console for March 2017 There isn&#8217;t much information on the\u00a0cost but it can be anywhere between\u00a0$200\u00a0to $350 (USD).\u00a0 This pricing\u00a0is critical for Nintendo as to whether they think the Switch will compete against the Xbox or PS4.\u00a0 Remember the Xbox\u00a0one dropped it&#8217;s price\u00a0since the PS4 was\u00a0winning on the console war.\u00a0 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":[],"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[11,17],"tags":[64,63,65,61,62,66],"class_list":["post-357","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-pc-tips-bits-bytes","category-hardware-reviews","tag-game-consoles","tag-games","tag-mario","tag-nintendo","tag-video-games","tag-zelda"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
