Surprised reactions on HD rumble seem so positive, according GameXplain even MK8D made use of it. I'm intrigued.
Doomed.

It seems you can feel the texture of any road, hope Steep will use it well!Surprised reactions on HD rumble seem so positive, according GameXplain even MK8D made use of it. I'm intrigued.
Loving the impressions. You guys sold me on ARMS!
Those three points though, GAF is fully justified in slamming Nintendo for it. It felt one sided yesterday because it held back the discussions about the quality of the system and the games that are there, but they are valid points, as I also point out in my impressions. Meh you know this as well, but just wanted to make that clear that I'm not 100 percent rosy on the subject.
I'm pretty sure it was glass, but I never touched the screen.Is the screen plastic or glass?
I forgot to mention that I bumped into Martin before I left. Sadly, he said that because they ar a small company, the game would be eShop for now (btw breaking news, they are keeping the branding of the digital store name eShop. Martin spoke to a Brand Ambassador who confirmed it inrmternally). So please get this digitally, if you want to support the devs.Me said:I will ask Martin, if he is still here. I had to stop playing Zelda. Got as far as Link waking up when I realized oh shit!!! Ono-San is on stage!So sad I didn't had the chance to play this yesterday, I liked the Wii U-game but it felt a liiiittle low on content, but this seems awesome! Do you know if its a retail release as well? Would love to get an F-Zero type racer on launch.
I was quite a fan of the split Wii remote and nunchuck combo.
Do we know how viable it is to play with a joy con in each hand without the grip?
From what I've heard they don't have any speakers.One question, are the Joy Cons able to make sounds as well?
I concur. I was just talking about this last week how I missed being able to play games with my hands besides me instead of grasping a controller.
It's somehow much more relaxing that way.
And I've seen plenty of videos now of people playing all kinds of games in that configuration so it looks like it will be a viable option which makes me very happy.
From what I've heard they don't have any speakers.
Nah, it has gotten completely out of hand. There's a ridiculous hyperbole where everything gets framed negatively. There are genuine concerns yes, but most of what is going on on GAF is just unfettered shitposting right now. Mods should start acting IMO.
IMO, it's a combination of astroturfing and console warriors losing their mind. It's been going on as far back as the Wii's unveiling. In fact, the few times I investigated someone's posts on here (during the Wii era), I could link them to Microsoft.
This isn't to say that Nintendo's systems are flawless. There's definitely room for criticism. However, there comes a point where it's obvious that some people are being deliberately dense or hyperbolic. There's a reason they're acting that way.
A question I have no seen answered anywhere, how is the sound on the tablet? How does it compare to the Wii U gamepad? It may have been difficult to hear in the busy event environment but if anyone has any ideas, that would be good to know.
Don't expect anything higher quality than Wii U gamepad, TBH. The speaker amplifiers on small devices tend to have low and high cut filters that slice out anything lower than 400Hz and higher than 10kHz so they don't blow out the tiny little drivers.
Yes, there is one on the tablet (screen).Is there a headphone jack?
Sorry if this has already been asked but did you see an option for a web browser anywhere on the Switch home menu? Great impressions btw, you sound cautiously optimistic (rightly so) but very happy to hear how high quality the design of the system is.
Please ask if it can be charged while on the kickstand
Rocket League? I did not see it the software line up trailer.Cuningas de Häme;228406766 said:Not coming, at least not for first. I think that multiple media outlets have covered that. Some Ninty dude have said so.
This forum is full of Nintendo haters and paid shills who shit on rival consoles, it is easy to see. Why mods don't purge them, I don't know why.
This is about the only topic where people with ACTUAL experience with the console have been able to relay the positives.
Nintendo seems to try to advertise this as a gaming device solely, just like vern and NateDrake told us before. And it is well and good.
And there is buttloads of games coming for Switch, in this year alone! I mean, if you look only the presentation it looks little light on the games side (there was that sizzle reel tho with many game), but there is dozens (of us!) of games already advertised for the Switch.
Steep is coming, Rocket League is coming, lots of jrpgs are coming... They just spread them for once so they don't drown in the sea of Mario and Zelda and Snipperclippers and other high profile Nintendo games.

What are your thoughts on the Pro Controller?
Engadget in particular said it felt great in the hands, but also said the sticks were overly stiff and the buttons weren't very tactile. Were those your takeaways as well?
