Having already teased us back in October when the first official trailer of the Nintendo Switch was announced, we now have more details regarding the Nintendo Switch via the live stream on both Twitch and YouTube Live from Nintendo’s very own channel. The Nintendo Switch is slated for a 3rd March 2017 release in Japan, USA, Europe, Hong Kong and in other territories as well. In terms of pricing, the Nintendo Switch will cost 29,980 Yen in Japan and $USD299 in America. Unfortunately, the pricing for the Nintendo Switch has not been announced in Europe just yet but Nintendo advises people to check with their local retailers for the price.

The Nintendo Switch also offers online services where you can now enjoy online multiplayer gaming with friends from around the world. The Nintendo Switch also offers local multiplayer services where you can connect up to 8 devices in a local LAN setting and game away. There will also be a free trial period for its online services until the Fall of 2017. The great thing about the Nintendo Switch is the implementation of no region locking, so you can purchase a game from Japan or America and be able to play it in Malaysia.

With up to 6 hours of battery life on a single charge, the Nintendo Switch also allows you to play while still charging through the USB Type-C charging port so you won’t have to waste time waiting. The Joy Con controllers also offer two exciting colours in Neon Blue and Neon Red. The Joy Con controllers also come sensing and vibration technology known as HD Rumble, giving even more realism and interaction with the games.

As seen above, these are the gaming studios and developers who will be participating with Nintendo on creating games for the Nintendo Switch so you will never be bored. However, the best announcement of the live stream goes to the cinematic and gameplay trailer for ‘The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’ as you see Link traversing the large and uncharted open-world for the first time! You can watch the trailer below:
