Having come down from the initial reveal high, pretty disappointed in today's showing. Not nearly substantial enough in terms of games/game footage for my liking. Matt saying that both Mario Kart and Splatoon are ports sucks and diminishes my interest in those. Mario looked cool for the 6 seconds it was on screen. Highlight of the show really.
The hardware stuff was basically a confirmation of the rumors we've been discussing for a while now. The portable element doesn't appeal to me. Nothing exciting in terms of graphics. I hope the price is appealing at least.
I like being able to play split controller style ala Wiimote and Nunchuk, but I just realized there's probably no headphone port on the detachable parts
Nintendo not talking about Switch anymore until next year might as well be delaying the reveal until next year as far as I'm concerned. Was only really interested in the games and this hardly scratched the itch. Just playing the waiting game again for now. Can only sit by and have faith that the merged platform idea will deliver results eventually. I'm optimistic for that if nothing else.
Console itself is pretty nondescript looking. Kinda disappointed in that too. Doesn't matter too much though.
