Look at OP that has a list of key rumours, region lock is said to have been removedI wonder what nintendo is going to do about region lock in switch... Probably almost all users want that removed but unfortunately it's nintendo we're talking about so i expect the worse.
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
I doubt eshop will be replaced, most likely improved. Specs are sure to become a reality, Nvidia will definitely release the specs of the switch.The recent story of Nintendo shows they doesn't compite on Hw level, so I think they will not say, for example:
- CPU/GPU model and power
- RAM available
So the speculation will continue until near the launch date when a reviewer or "early adopter" disassembly the console and give us the info.
At 12 I think they will say:
- Price
- Launch day line-up
- Eshop replace system maybe
- Controllers and other usability features of the console.
Again... this is my opinion and pure and simple speculation too... so the best thing we can do is wait to the 12 and see... so, so late in my country... I see the event live at Jan 13, 01:00 AM (GMT -3)
