Yes! I'm not too interested in Smash, and we didn't see anything else I was hoping to (Animal Crossing, SMT V, F-Zero) so this is the best thing of the event for me Only 2GB, too!
Only 2GB, too!

Yes ! No matter what people say, it's a pleasure to see a free game on the switch.
As much as I know what the general reaction to this is, it is nice to see a relatively good free game on the Switch.
Any word on whether this will require the paid Nintendo online service when that launches? It would suck if it does, considering you don't need PS+ or Xbox Gold to play.
EDIT: Seems you do need Xbox Gold. That sucks. You don't need PS+ though.

It's free on almost every platform, if you want to form an opinion the quickest way is to try it yourself since everyone else gets rather opinionated about their views so it's not worth asking other people.
Oh wow, I wonder how they managed that. Even games that don't touch xbox or sony servers usually require + or gold. Here's hoping the same holds true for nintendo.
Oh, word? huh. From experience you don't need PS+ and so for some dumb reason I figured it would be the same on Xbox.
Well, matches are around ~100 people so that would be a difficult local-play session. Maybe when Playgrounds mode comes out.

Yup. You can play it free on ps4 without having a plus subscription. But on xbox one you need to have a gold subscription to play it online.
It also explains why sony offers two exclusives skins for ps+ users.
Be strong! Wait for Atmosphere's emunand! I don't mind waiting for Emunand because I play Fortnite on PS4. Can't wait until I can use this version though.
Good thing is it's cross play with every system except the PS4 because of Sony.

they need to have a strong line up on the launch titles too. I think they should move metroid prime 4 to the next console because by now it has been quite a while and there's no release date scheduled yet -

well as far as metroid prime 4 is concerned, the next system probably is similar enough to the current gen they can probably easily just slap it onto a next gen cart and call it good

Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima took the stage at the outset to reveal that Switch will launch globally on March 3, 2017 for $299.99—earlier than some had expected at the price many suspected. https://time.com/4632820/nintendo-switch-nx/ -

For me just buying a Pi and some accessories fills that not a PC void new consoles have just put them close to PC prices and all the patching and updates makes me feel like I might as well just get a PC
