Nice. Hopefully I'll manage to get a Switch in 2017. I'd play the hell out of MK8 Deluxe and Zelda.

lol, to those who say 350 usd is the same as 280 gbp, you mmake me laugh
the salary you get for a job doesnt vary with the currenc...
a guy gets 20USD/hour in usa and a guy with the same job in uk will get like 19.50gbp/hour
the guy i9n uk will still pay less than the guy in usa, its the same incanada

I think people should hold off on the battery pack.
There were photos of the switch and it says it takes 15v 2amp.
So my guess is a normal 5v charger isnt going to cut it. The fast chargerd fo 9v.

So id wait to order a batterypack until we find more information

I completely agree. Things do not work well without the correct voltage.

We also have this Switch car charger from Amazon Japan, but I wouldn't trust specs from an amazon preorder page. Seems to indicate the output of the charger is 5V 3.0 amps.

$349.99 isn't the same as £279.99, obviously. They add the UK VAT so it's as close as it can be to the US RRP.

Yea it would be smart to do a 5v setup.
But i did see a youtube video (i linknit on here somewhere)
That show close ups of the switch and the back reads 15v 2amp.
But we will find put soon enough.
I hope its a normal 5v setup

I saw the same one so I not sure what is up. I am no electrical engineer but I suppose it is possible it works with 5V undocked as it is using less power and switches to 15 V when docked. Also I am fairly certain that video showed 2.6 amps, not 2.

Regardless there are hundreds of models to choose from and I am sure we will get more details closer to launch date.

You cant charge something with lower voltage. You need more in to charge it.
The 3ds is a 3.3v battery (like most cellphones) and the charger is 5v.

So the switch would have to be under 5v for a 5v charger to work.
I am really hoping it is. Would make stiff so much easier. Ive had a ton of cellphone so i have at lest 5 of the fast usb chargers laying around and 3 or 4 usb-c cable

    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
