After loads of anticipation overnight, Nintendo revealed a video showing off what the rumored Nintendo NX actually is, as well as what they're calling it. The Nintendo Switch, as its dubbed, can be played either as a mobile device with detachable controllers or as a home console by dropping it in a dock. Check it out:
It'll be interesting to see how the Nintendo NX does. At first glance, it might seem a little big for hauling around, but remember, we've gotten very used to bringing giant (in my case, iPad Pro-sized) tablets nearly everywhere we go. It's possible Nintendo hit the sweet spot here between making console gamers who want to play on a TV happy, as well as people looking for a fancier Nintendo mobile experience beyond what the 3DS offers.
Of course no pricing or anything else has been announced beyond a release date of March 2017. What do you guys think? Are you going to get one? Is the decades-old internet meme that Nintendo is doomed finally coming true? Or something else entirely? Let us know in the comments.
