Why are you so bitter?
Volume rocker probably
Cant watch the video, does the fans run when in mobile mode?

Yeah sure... So you're telling me that he wasn't aware of the HDMI cable to the projector and the power supply from the "Switch base" ?
They were just acting. Though it was cool to have the Switch really display the game unlike in the preview trailer.
Noticed that with headphones. So more or less confirmed the docked mode regarding the fans.
The fan noise stops when removed from dock. Either the internal fans slow down or it turns off entirely.

If i was worried about something it would be the switch screen contrast. Looked kinda tepid i hope it's a good lcd.
Also yeah Fallon is unbearable. I can believe he's a true gamer and all, but the way he's acting like he's going to have a seizure.. This is so fake. And the whole thing is soooo cringey i have to stop watching at some point. I mean Reggis is literally shitting his pants from stage fright and Miyamoto is acting like everything is so cool and he's getting the jokes when he has no clue where he is It feels like none of those 3 people are meant to be there.

It feels like none of those 3 people are meant to be there.There's a sort of buzzing sound that stops when they take the system out of the dock. So no, if the fan is actually what we're hearing there.
It's under massive hot studio lights. Trying to gauge screen contrast off this is pretty fruitless, lol
Sounded dead silent to me. But it's hard to tell since we don't know the microphone placement.

No audio though?

Yeah it'll be sold out because they'll ship a handful to stores and call it a day. Gotta keep the artificial hype flowing.

Probably you are missing a codec there. It is 5.1.
There's audio. Sure your media player isn't muted?
Edit: Or what patientx said.

That strategy, if Nintendo uses it at all, doesn't really apply to consoles. You need an install base to sell software.

Huh, worked in VLC, but not Windows Media Player.
Mind if I upload this to YouTube with credit to you in the description?

A new Metroid Prime and I'm sold on this.

For some reason it didn't clue into me that the 'switch' part is what it is. You literally just pick it up out of the base & you're gaming on the screen? And then it's a portable.
That is fucking cool as all get-out
Edit - I thought perhaps the Switch advert did some editing tricks where there was a delay or something.

It actually confirms you can play it outside in sunlight and it'll look okay because it's brighter on stage in a studio than it is outside.

Fallon is the hype man for the Switch.
The game is going to look the same no matter what system it is on, just some technical improvements when on the Switch. I fell like some people believe the Switch version should be a different game.

I almost couldn't watch the video because of Fallon. He's really terrible.
Did I watch the reveal trailer because that's been the main feature of the system from the get go. It's a fantastic idea and I like it. It makes me hope they sell the dock on its own so I can move it throughout my house.

This thing is going to be over $400 isn't it?

Why would it be anything close to that?
Rumors and leaks are pointing to $250 for the base model.

Rumors have it between $250 - 300.

Did it run at 60fps docked and undocked? I can't tell since the video is set to 30fps.
No. No studio is as bright inside as outside on a sunny day. Well-lit rooms usually stand at 1/100th of the actual daylight luminosity (from 200 to 1000 lux vs 50000-100000), it's just that our eyes are very good at adapting to different light conditions. To get a similar luminosity as an actual outside light, you'd need a high-efficiency 400W lightbulb for each sqm of a room. So a 200 mq studio (10X20) would need 80 kW of illumination. I'm no expert on studio illumination but i'm pretty sure they don't spend that much energy on illumination alone.

I doubt it, would be a very, very bad move.
It's the art style/direction of BotW. It's not going to look vastly different(better) on a more powerful system.

Ok...that's pretty cool.

lol I know dude, that's why I edited what I said. I thought they used some editing gimmickery. Like how the GTA V gameplay reveal trailer showed you switching between characters way faster than how it actually works in-game.
Nope, you literally pick it up and it's on the screen. It was really cool to see it demoed live.
I have so much confidence in Nintendo at this point, this just looks like a runaway hit waiting to fuck some shit up.
Why? There's nothing here that would suggest such a thing.
Either it's slower or it doesn't run at all.
Sorry! And i was actually shocked about the quickness too. I remember they never showed the Wii U actually running before release and I was blind sided by the load times and how clunky it was. This already looks promising.

It's way better without the audio.
