It’s been exactly 84 days since the article on the Nintendo Switch’s reveal. We went over what everything we could at the time. From the teaser trailer we could see that it was meant to be a hybrid console. Being able to play whole console games on your T.V. screen as well as on the go with a portable screen. All with a seamless transition going between the two.

Now, Nintendo’s given us something that made the teaser look like nothing. On January 15th, Nintendo released a live presentation of the switch and everything it had to offer and so much more. With the new Joy-con controllers, players now have new ways to experience gaming. Both detachable left and right Joy-con controllers come with a HD Rumble pack. It’s described as being able to feel the game you’re playing in rich detail. The mobile screen’s battery life varies by game, but it is completely chargeable on the go. All this brings a whole new way to enjoy gaming.

Not only does it come with a new innovative way to game, it comes with new innovative games to play! The starting line up (launch title games) may seem scarce, but that doesn’t make it any less enjoyable. What it lacks in the beginning, it makes up with a steady stream of games to enjoy throughout the year. With a new Legend of Zelda game right out the gates to TWO Fire Emblem games coming later on.

The switch is definitely the step in the right direction for Nintendo. As stated in previous articles, they may have been the weak link, but now they’re taking the gaming industry by storm! The Nintendo Switch launches March 3rd, and it is something definitely worth considering to get.
