Nicole Kidman was interested in him and all he wanted to do was show her Mario Bros.

How are you able to tell that from a 30fps video?
why not

I already see a lot of shimmering and jaggies when i watch this full screen on 1080P.
Not sure why we always keep hoping Nintendo suddenly discovered there is a thing called anti aliasing..
Anyway, can't wait to finally play it. I'm confident this will be one of the best Zelda games ever.

FWIW, the Nvidia Shield K1 tablet does support Quickcharging, different tech then Dash charging like the OnePlus 3, but same result. So maybe...?
The only real fps comparison we have is the big explosion which didn't as much as stutter in the Switch footage, while E3 demos showed it to chug quite a bit in similar situations, which is quite telling. Granted the E3 build is probably *ancient* and we'll probably only know when both versions are out and Digital Foundry works some magic (they oughta, at least).
Regarding the shimmering, we don't know the resolution of the projector either
, could be a large 720p image. I'm remaining positive about 1080p at least, but it won't really bother me since I'll exclusively play the Switch as a portable anyway.Man, say what you want about Jimmy but he was a great hype man in this segment. Best advertising money can buy.
Yeah, that story is like straight out of Dating-Age around here. "This girl came over to my place, all we did was play video games but do you think she's into me?"
You kidding? It comes up somewhat frequently on his show. Just a week or two ago they did a bit where he played Mario Kart 8 with some Nascar drivers.

I need it. I needed it yesterday. I keep forgetting the event is in January. Screw Christmas, the real festivities begin on January 12th.
Also, people up in here thinking this is going to be Wii all over again. Don't do this to yourselves. That's not happening.

Yeah on January 12th, I bet money those preorders will be up only a day or two then there will be a shirt storm

The thinness of it is appealing, here's hoping it will improve on the ergonomic nightmare that was the 3ds. Also wish the bezel around the screen was smaller, it gives it that generic android tablet vibe
Yeah it looks sleek as fuck, I hope the weight distribution is good too

I'm not sure if I'm happy or sad that the Switch appears to have a matte screen.

Judging by the "basic -> Lite/xl" cycle, the next iteration will most likely be even more fantastic looking.

Papa bless nintendo, this was the shot in the arm that I needed to finish this week.

I'd be happy. A matte screen reduces annoying reflections. The downside would be (at the absolute worst) a very slight blurriness to the overall image. But that does not have to be the case. My monitor has a matte screen and the image is clear as day.
Considering its adaptive design with detachable controllers, analog sticks, analog triggers, etc. that's a design marvel. Beyond games it runs, the hardware will be very attractive on its own
I'm in disbelief how incredibly thin it is. I think it's even thinner than a closed OG 3DS. Wow.

A whole lot of Nintendo stories. They seem like they have a plan. Dare i even say, competent?

As someone who has never been a Nintendo fan in general (only owned a Gamecube for RE4), I'm genuinely optimistic for the Switch.
Nintendo seem to understand how to market it, it has a simple hook that is easy to demonstrate (unlike the Wii U) and the hardware both in form and function looks impressive. The sleek and thin design of the unit is surprising.
And Fallon was genuinely hyped, great advert for Nintendo.

What's that plastic tab on the right side? There's this indented circular button there as well
Well, they have a great manual on how to NOT do things in the Wii U

oh hey it's not running like crap on portable mode, that's reassuring
Why's that?Seemed like it ran at 60 video is 30fps nevermind. I still think it'll run at 60 though, nothing seems to suggest otherwise
Why's that?
Well, you clearly can see there's still not anisotropic filtering at all.
And you can also see there's shadow pop in (sorry, forgot the actual technical name) between 7:14-7:20
The grass, however, seems to be less aliased than in the Wii U version, especially considering this close up but it could very well be because it's off screen footage.

Power and volume control.
Impossible to tell given that the video itself is 30. Don't get ahead of yourself
I've played the Wii U version and it was nowhere near as smooth as that, obviously I can't say if it was 60 but it's totally running at 60 it's a super power I have.

Man I love GAF for its overly critique view on every frame of footage...but sometimes its just too much

Looks like the back of the dock also has rubber padding, which means you probably can keep it horizontal and slide the tablet from front (with screen facing up) without the whole thing shifting back.

It looks llike the ergonomic sucks in tablet mode.

Well true, but it also doesn't have a screen cover.
At least these shouldn't be "dummy cables" since the Switch was actually running.
As said, I thought they were both USB-C with one of them being USB-C to HDMI because they were the same thickness but I guess that won't be the case.
So I'm only wondering why the power supply cable is as thick as the HDMI cable for something that only needs 30W-40W at most to power everything on the dock including ports.
how can you see that in a 30fps video o.o?
Yeah, notice how there's a groove on the side of the dock for the cables to fit through if it's placed horizontal.

Edit: nevermind didnt see the grooves on the side.

You're right, there's also a little square hole so you don't smush your cables while it's horizontal as well.
Look closely
. There are definitely two rubber feet on the bottom, I guess the top black part is rubbery as well.Jonneh3003

They can't, would be nice but I highly doubt Breath of the Wild is running at 60fps.

Switch seems nice, but Fallon is just the worst.
