Goodnightmoon banned for 2 weeks. The guy is going to go insane reading chartz and not being able to post. Somebody invite him over here and we'll keep him cosy for 2 weeks.

Having stock isn't a good sign.

It's a great sign, Nintendo is finally getting their heads out of their asses and meeting demand ...

Couple of my Facebook friends have posted photos of their switches. Kinda jealous, but I can't spend much money.

I wont buy it day 1.

I'll get it within two years, thats my minimum amount of time I wait before buying a new console.

Though I might end up buying it next year maybe :p.

When I said Switch games will be PS360 port instead PS4/Xbox One...

SHOCKING NEWS: Skylanders Imaginators on Switch is a PS360/Wii U port - NeoGAF

QuoteSomeone put up footage of the first bit on Switch and to the surprise of no one, it is a pre-gen port:

Switch looks identical to the PS3 and Wii U versions as shown. The PS4 version has added foliage and shadows in the environments.
Also, do not take the vids/screens as indication of resolution or anything on their own, with differing video recording qualities, there's no definite way to tell either way. I believe PS3 and Wii U are 720p and 30fps, and PS4 and XBO are 1080p and maybe 30fps as well? I don't quite recall, so if I'm wrong, let me know!
Anyway, I'd like to know some impressions of the Switch version, particularly compared to the other versions.

You know, when you think about it, the Switch is similar to the Vita and PSTV put together.

A handheld gaming device with too much tech for its own good, too high priced for what it's competing against, with poor support and expensive accessories... that you can also play on TV.

Which one were you talking about?

I didn't even know about the grips getting stuck. That seems like a major oversight.
