Support NeoGAF

[Joqu]

These accessories are looking pretty spiffy, I want way too many of them. Hori puts out quality stuff.

 

[ThanksVision]

WAIT


do we know if the pro controller has a headphone jack? please for the love of reggie!!

 

[Retrobox]

Why would you use it though when the Switch has USB 3.0 which supports a gigabit connection.

You think it would actually make a difference whether you use a 3.0 or 2.0 USB adapter for your Internet? Console games shouldn't be so extremely taxing on the connection either way, should they?

 

[CloudyTuba]

That looks purdy. I want it.

 

[SodiumBenzoate]

Wait there is no Ethernet port on the dock? WTF.

 

[molnizzle]

Pokken Tournament.

Pokken uses a controller even in the arcade.

 

[LinkSlayer64]

Sorry guys that "fighting" stick isn't for a fighter. It's for the new Pacman.

I am more hype for this.

 

[Ridley327]

But it gets advertized as a home console too, so it's very easy to justify. And since it can also be classified as a console, Nintendo has been the only one to consistently stick to this awful practice.

The thing of it is that I don't think any of the consoles right now can actually switch between wireless and Ethernet automatically. I don't know if that's an actual limitation, but I doubt Nintendo would be the one to figure it out if there was one.

I think it was said it doesn't have one, but the Switch has Bluetooth for headphones I believe.

 

[PadWarrior]

Guys pokken doesn't use a fight stick.

 

[zewone]

I hope the Wii U Pro controller is backwards compatible after seeing the other options for the Switch so far.

 

[AdanVC]

Street fighter 5 is playstation exclusive for consoles, so probably not.



agreed should be included in the dock.

Damn that's true :c was hoping to see SFV on switch. But bring Tekken 7 anyways!

 

[LordKano]

Neither Smash Bros nor Pokkén uses a fight stick. It has to be for a third-party game.

 

[Ridley327]

I hope the Wii U Pro controller is backwards compatible after seeing the other options for the Switch so far.

Since the Switch seemingly has analog triggers, I'm not sure how much good the Pro Controller will do you.

 

[HotHamBoy]

Pokken Tournament.

No one uses an arcade stick for Pokken. Even the arcade machine uses a controller.

Since the Switch seemingly has analog triggers, I'm not sure how much good the Pro Controller will do you.

Not every game is going to use the analog part of the analog triggers. They may not use them at all.

 

[frankie_baby]

I'd love to see some stats on how many consoles are using wired Ethernet connections, I'd assume less than 20%.

I pulled 3% out of my ass earlier in the thread but I'd have to imagine its noticably less than 10

 

[aBarreras]

Street Fighter V Portable edition

 

[zewone]

Noooooooooooooo!

 

[Dark Ninja]

Neither Smash Bros nor Pokkén uses a fight stick. It has to be for a third-party game.

Or Nintendo is making a traditional fighting game. Urban Champion 2017 GET HYPE.

 

[Remapped88]

Oooohh.....a HRAP?! I friggin' love my HRAP4 Kai on the PS4 and I definitely wouldn't mind getting an arcade stick for Switch if it has a nice selection of fighters in the future.....*cough*NintendoVsCapcomplease*cough*.

 

[Hueytothe]

tbh Pokken plays fine on arcade stick

 

[L Thammy]

That stand just screams Kid Icarus Uprising.

Also Jojo.

 

[Type40]

Darkstalkers Switch Exclusive.

 

[Enduin]

Hmm that one protective pouch looks OK. Was hoping for a magnetic screen cover, but oh well.

 

[Mr. F]

That looks purdy. I want it.

Was there some kind of IR thing in the bezel? Not sure why they wouldn't cover it with face plates/shells if they could, looks bad.

 

[Muzicfreq]

No they aren't.. Not even close.

Vita has 2 card systems I think the one people are talking about is not the storage card but the game carts

Protector over the screen kills multi touch theories.

Also.... What? This means nothing.

 

[HotHamBoy]

That's the problem. It's probably Tekken 7. TTT2 was a Wii U launch game and Mad Cats made a TE stick for it. Outside of Pokken and Smash, TTT2 ended up being the only fighting game. Waste of money.

 

[zewone]

Am I the only one who thinks the default Switch controller looks really bad?

I have to add an additional $50 to the cost of the system to get a controller with a better layout.

Not happy about that.

 

[origamipirate]

If that arcade stick means MvC (either the Ultimate 3 port, or Infinite when the time comes) will come to Switch, I will be a VERY happy man.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

That's the problem. It's probably Tekken 7. TTT2 was a Wii U launch game and Mad Cats made a TE stick for it. Outside of Pokken and Smash, TTT2 ended up being the only fighting game. Waste of money.

Not that it really matters to the point, but there was also Injustice, for clarity.

 

[Avixph]

Are there going to be any tempered glass screen protectors?

?

 

[Neoxon]

Protector over the screen kills multi touch theories.

The patent mentions multi-touch, so I'm not sure what you're getting at.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

?

There's none in this leak. No one knows.

 

[frankie_baby]

Was there some kind of IR thing in the bezel? Not sure why they wouldn't cover it with face plates/shells if they could, looks bad.

LKD suggested there was, to do IR pointing with the IR thing at the bottom of the right joycon but i think the patents suggest the IR thing is for other purposes

 

[AGoodODST]

Zelda stuff surely means it's there for launch.

Fighting stick is interesting. What fighter could be launching around march?

 

[MADGAME]

That fight stick implies that Hori knows about some high profile fighting game releases on Switch that we probably aren't aware of. Here's hoping that Tatsunoko VS Capcom gets a digital release on Switch's Virtual Console.....

Spoiler

look I know it won't happen. Just let me dream.

If TvC gets an HD port to switch...

 

[Otakumegane]

Lan adapter?

So no ethernet jack again?

 

[LinkSlayer64]

That's the problem. It's probably Tekken 7. TTT2 was a Wii U launch game and Mad Cats made a TE stick for it. Outside of Pokken and Smash, TTT2 ended up being the only fighting game. Waste of money.

What about injustice?

 

[Net]

It's going to be Tekken 7.

They promised the release date would be announced in January.

Perhaps two days from now?

 

[gilley]

They need a slot on the top of the joystick that can hold the Switch

 

[GDGF]

The Zelda plastic cover thing is kinda cool.

People making their own covers is going to become a nice cottage industry me thinks.

 

[calc84maniac]

Lan adapter?

There's only so many ways you can split USB-C. Given the choice between three USB ports or two USB + one LAN, I'd take the three USB for the versatility.

 

[Brandson]

Shield TV has an ethernet port. Pretty weak decision not to put one on the Switch dock.

 

[Graphics Horse]

I noticed that, too. Maybe it's like this?

Could that be the location for those rumoured IR markers? I thought they'd be hidden behind the screen surround though.

 

[TheMagician]

Wait there is no Ethernet port on the dock? WTF.

No Nintendo console in history has had an Ethernet port.

 

[AgeEighty]

Not happy about that.

Which one do you mean by "default"? The built-in ones, the Pro, or the Hori one in this thread?

 

[Nairume]

Or Nintendo is making a traditional fighting game. Urban Champion 2017 GET HYPE.

Real talk: if the Killer Instict reboot managed to take a bad fighter and make it good, the same could work for Urban Champion.

 

[LordRaptor]

From a design perspective a fighting game with a 1 character roster would be sort of interesting

 

[Baleoce]

Gotta sell them accessories. But I agree, it's really shitty.
