Has there been any talk about the E-Store being region free too?
That doesn't indicate what will be available at launch? Maybe I'm having trouble reading it

Did they really mention that some of the games will have free multiplayer?
Really wish they'd move Mario Kart up either to launch or at least to the beginning of April. :/ End of April is actually 2 months from launch.

I'm perplexed at why Mario Maker is not a launch title. I never had a Wii U, so MM + Zelda would put me all in. I have little interest in any other titles this year; maybe Splatoon 2 but that requires online. In fact MM will probably require online sub also if it ever gets ported.

Do we have a price for Super Bomberman R yet? It's looking like I'm gonna do Zelda, SnipperClips, and Bomberman for launch, depending on the price. Not sure if I'm willing to shell out a full $60 for Bomberman though, hopefully it's $40 or less.

I know they need to get the info out, but that first year lineup isn't exactly stellar.
Splatoon 2 doesn't require online, it's got a single player campaign like the first one did.

Thanks I want to go back and rewatch some stuff. Smooches!
But they already delayed from late 2016 to early 2017 "so the software will be ready"
And then one or two will be delayed to 2018.
This feel like Wii U all over again.
Thanks. I totally missed the bit about the Fire Emblem Direct, awesome to hear.
A lot of announced games don't have released dates pinned down yet. For example, Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove will probably be 2017, but there are no details on release timing yet. Same thing with Rayman Legends.

Can someone give me a list of all the games played on Treehouse Live?
I wonder if the updates they are talking about are ports padding out the year, since they might have wanted to not focus too much of the event on ports.

Yes, they delayed it for the games to be ready and they are not.
Yea it should not have been in the reveal is the game wasnt gonna be ready for a year
Nah, her character on Community was way more reserved and sexually inexperienced than that. This is from Mad Men.
Actually I think it's from some web series before she hit it big. "Hot Sluts" (yes, really) might be a good place to start.

This band is great. I want them to release a CD.
I honestly don't think this is a horrible launch year of titles. Splatoon 2, Mario, Zelda, and possibly Xenoblade are more than enough for me. I have a PS4 and PC to play games on too. I don't know how you all find the time to play so many games that you need more than what's being offered the first year. If they launched everything the first year, everyone would just be complaining about the droughts the following year.

Does anyone think we could see some Switch games take advantage of the 16 buttons the main controller has when the Joycons are docked?
8 circle buttons (4 on each joycon)
Plus button
Minus button
Left stick (L3)
Right stick (R3)
L button
R button
ZL button
ZR button
Even something simple like using them as hotkeys/shortcuts in certain games would be neat.
Edit: if you play game with both Joycons un-docked, there would be 20 available buttons.

Arino-kacho is playing Zelda right now on Nintendo Japan's channel.
Here's the latest one from Nintendo of America's Twitter:[/url]
To me this selection, while nice at first glance, does not scream "We are going all out here! These games are why we had so few Wii U games in its last year! This is what unified development amounts to now that we don't have to fill two systems with games!" when it comes to the first party games announced (the third party stuff is lacklustre as well to be honest but that's a whole different problem).
Instead, I get a strong Wii U style "3 or 4 big first party game per year should be enough to hold people over" vibe that made me wonder all throughout the Wii U's lifespan when the heck all the other games would be coming out finally. In the Wii U's case it was nearly always the 3DS that ended up getting them but now with Switch I had hoped that that problem would not have persisted. I'm even thinking now that they are in fact not going all out with the Switch and that it won't be long before we see new 3DS games popping up again while we scratch our heads wondering why they are not coming to Swich.
I really hope I'm wrong on all of this though and that they are actually saving some stuff for E3. Then again, their previous years don't give me much confidence for that scenario though...(i.e. what are/have they (been) working on?!)

I'm seeing this sentiment everywhere and I don't agree. Why delay it? If you are personally not interested, then take a pass until what you want to play is out. Otherwise, you are completely unaffected by an early launch.
I'll be happy to play Zelda in March.
If it is truly coming, they didn't announce it yet because SMM 3DS is burning up the charts!
They 'just' re-released it and its selling. They will give it room to breathe before announcing a superior portable version in every way.
If it's coming at all.
This is missing quite a 'lot' of stuff.
We already have boxart for Redout and Binding of Isaac+, Steep is surely not coming 2018, Rayman is missing, I guess Stardew Valley and Yooka Laylee is coming this year on Switch too.. And these are all confirmed on the way. The Rabbits RPG remains to be seen, als well as some Wii U ports.
I'm not quite sure what's going on here and why this stuff isn't PRd properly by Nintendo.
Or, just reality setting in. Nintendo never released that many games between both the Wii U and 3DS anyways, and they've been releasing new 3DS games up through Fall. On top of that, games take two to three years to develop nowadays and you've got a new system to develop for.
While it's a bit disappointing, how many brand new games were people expecting?
