Nintendo Switch Q&A: 50 of YOUR Questions Answered!

[@Teremei]

Andre: on HD rumble "rumble is a gimmick" Andre: "I really like the Wii wheel"

[@GameXplain]

+Teremei I KNEW someone was going to say this lol. Gimmicks can be fun--I liked Rumble in Star Fox 64. But I don't want to use the Wii Wheel in every game

[@louiswouters71]

I vividly remember the rumble adding a new layer of depth when in Mario Sunshine these landmarks came out of the ground and the ground was shaking. That was awesome!

[@zacksmith2227]

perhaps the most extensive review of switch reveal loved it guys very thorough, professional, fair , interesting and informative keep up the good work guys.

[@GameXplain]

+Zak Smith :)

[@quantumwitcher9376]

Zak Smith really? all i saw was the usual Nintendo bias they have

[@xanderperry5575]

Quantum Witcher key word is "you"

[@quantumwitcher9376]

Alex Perry /\\\ you* mean to tell me they dont have bias?

[@bro748]

+Quantum Witcher They're about as bias towards Nintendo as you are bias against Nintendo.

[@skyskystudio8375]

"I don't know how the Switch goes if the first year isn't really strong" You're getting Mario Kart, Zelda, Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade, Splatoon, Fire Emblem Warriors, and Skyrim in the first year. That's like one of the best first years any console has ever had, let alone any Nintendo console. Damn you lot are hard to please lol

[@heta1755]

Sky Sky Studio yeah and the 3ds didn't sell well at the beginning but has turned out to be a success

[@abhatti326]

To be fair there aren't many games on release and that is kind of a big deal. Hopefully we get more announced soon because it'll basically turn into only Zelda fans buying a Switch and most others waiting for Splatoon or even all the way in December for Mario.

[@ultimatecosmic6053]

Sky Sky Studio and there's sonic mania, project sonic 2017 and db xenoverse 2

[@iownalx23]

Sky Sky Studio i agree. only the first few days are weak. the weeks and months after that are formidable.

[@skyskystudio8375]

As long as it's before 3/3 next year, that would still be in the first year :)

[@bucketfullabiscuits7865]

4:51 The people in the October trailer playing Splatoon 2 were playing with their pro controllers on the go in the training room, so yes you can.

[@chasefoxx]

5:10 there was an instance in the reveal trailer where one of the Splatoon players was using a pro controller while playing in "Tabletop mode"

[@memeteme99]

Chase Foxx yeah right before the guy drew dicks right in front of millions of ppl

[@hemmes4984]

When i come back, this comment better have 100 likes :')

[@MattMatrixJohnson]

im supporting your cause. ...also ill get more likes than both of you

[@STEM-ef7hj]

Psy-Crow Mantis Oh please! NO NO comments are the best. 😂

[@JohnJonnyBerry]

downvoted this Hemmes idiot

[@purplewarrior12]

The Hemmes Like #29 coming up!

[@charm_wis]

The Hemmes fucking dipshit like bitch

[@IcZ2013]

Mario sports mix better come to the switch

[@Dmdm_dm]

and Strikers

[@purplewarrior12]

IcYGodZ I hope it does! It needs a new game mode, or an HD remake, or just be on virtual console

[@purplewarrior12]

Psy-Crow Mantis That would be great, too! I've never played Strikers. Or even Sluggers

[@memoryman3586]

Yes! Daisy's sports outfit in HD on the go!

[@ssolstar]

memoryman3 yes!

[@MrGamerTH]

I really hope mk8 owners get a discount for mk8 deluxe

[@MrGamerTH]

Yeah the club Nintendo registration would work, too bad they stopped club Nintendo and replaced it with my Nintendo

[@MrGamerTH]

@MrYoungHegelian It's even funnier that i have to pay 60 euros for the same game, plus the game with DLC on wii u costs more than buying the game on the switch, so this is a big F you to wii u owners

[@ReachStudioPro]

+MrGamerTH This happens ALL THE FUCKING TIME!! Literally it happens with so many other games on all gaming platforms. Old games get a deluxe edition/remasters/remakes included with all DLCs and no one complains but when Nintendo does it EVERYONE MUST COMPLAIN! Holy fuck. What is wrong with all of you? The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Edition is obviously not for those who own the Wii U version, it's for those hundreds of millions who never bought a Wii U in the first place. It's not like you will lose your Wii U version when the Switch version is released either. If you want to play the game, continue on the one you already own. People act like this has never been done before and making it into the worst fucking shit ever combined with the fact that people also act like they will lose their owned Wii U version when the Switch version comes out. I have never been a fan of Nintendo but motherfucker this blind rage is animalistic. I understand we Humans are animals but we are not so braindead as so many Humans act like towards Nintendo at this time.

[@jezzupwuzzup]

+MrGamerTH Wii U owners, you know the people who stuck around after so many failures, mistakes and disappointments? Yeah fuck those people. Smart move Nintendo!

[@connora770]

JezzupWuzzup Seriously? F*** people who bought the Wii U. The people who bought the Wii U are the ones who are loyal to Nintendo, and that's a good thing. But I do see your point on the people who did it get a Wii U wanting to play Mario Kart 8. You didn't have to be a jerk about it though.

[@Smartrockclimbingvideos]

Looking for an answer. Here's the timestamps for the video: 1:06 How is the touch screen? 2:02 Were you able to look at the UI? How was the framerate? 3:55 What game are you most hyped about? 4:55 Can you play with the pro controller while on the go? 5:20 Will there be 32 GB or more? 5:45 What does the home screen look like? 7:05 How will the switch do on the market place 8:45 Should I buy Mario Kart 8 when I have it on the Wii U? 10:50 Does the quality drop when in portable mode? 12:40 Will you get the grey or colored version of the Switch? 14:20 How do the ABXY buttons feel? 15:50 How is the size and weight of the switch compared to other devices? 19:35 Are the Joy-Cons comfortable for big hands? 21:50 Is it worth buying Splatoon 2?

How is the touch screen? 36:50 Are the Joy-Cons heavy? 38:50 How is docking and undocking during a game? 40:55 How was controlling the inklings in Splatoon 2? 42:00 Will Arms be successful? 42:55 Will Arms be a competitive game for eSports? 43:45 How is the kickstand? 45:05 What’s the most comfortable mode of play? 47:00 How do the Joy-Cons feel? 47:15 Can you use a Wii U Pro Controller? 47:45 Is it worth it to buy the Pro Controller? 48:20 How do the shoulder buttons feel? 48:50 Which controller set do you prefer? 49:10 Do you feel like you’ll drop the Joy’Cons? 50:15 Does it look like 3rd party game support is good? 50:45 Does the screen seem to small? 51:50 Does it go in and out of the dock easily? 52:30 How are regular controls with Arms? 53:00 Is it dumb to pay for online? 53:40 Do you fear touching the release button while playing? 54:30 Can it fit in a jacket pocket? 55:50 Can you charge it when in kickstand mode? 57:15 What’s your favorite thing about the Switch?

[@Callowny]

Smart Rock Climbing You're the best

[@tiagoferreira4836]

Smart Rock Climbing dude thank you you're king!

[@Mattyboy-dn4oo]

Super smash bros should come to Switch. I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Inkling came to smash. I still want Sora.

[@Mattyboy-dn4oo]

***** I see Roxas being more of a pallete swap or an alternate costume than a full on playable character. He also isn't the main protaganist. If Kingdom Hearts characters were to vome to smah, it would most likely be Sora. But hey, I also want Aqua in smash bros. Smash needs more female characters

[@Mattyboy-dn4oo]

***** Well perhaps he may be a second KH character in smash but then we would have 3 square Enix reps in smash Cloud, Sora, and Roxas. If Sora and Roxas or even Aqua gets in. Maybe they can do like they did with Robin. Have Sora and Roxas and each one has an alternative pallete swap if that makes any sense. Roxas wielded the Kingdom key once so I believe it should be like the Robin pallete swap.

[@Mattyboy-dn4oo]

He could control his dream eaters for most of his moves.

[@Mattyboy-dn4oo]

Joshua Suh I was referring to Dream Drop Distance

[@Mattyboy-dn4oo]

"If any character were to come into smash, they have to use moves that cone from their own games." So with that logic, Corrin shouldn't kick people in smash bros because he never kicked anyone in FE fates. And Lucina and marth's movest should be from the game. Well, all of Marth's moves are made up except for F smash specials, and F tilt. And Captain Falcon shouldn't be in smash because none of his moves were in the F Zero games. Even if Neku's moves were to come from World Ends with you, they could still reference Dream Drop Distance in one of his moves. If every character's move has to be in the game, then the game would be completely different l. Some characters wouldn't even be in the game if that logic was the rule. A character's move set can be unique as possible l. Yeah Dream Drop Distance has nothing to do with The World Ends with you but they could reference it in his moveset and they can make things up.

[@HylianTicipated]

Video should've been 60fps, imo.

[@codyrodriguez280]

Hylian Ticipated 60fps of a still switch image

[@RogerDaKangaroo]

Cody Rodriguez Hell yeah :^)

[@deathsoulv-yola2133]

If you stare at it VERY CLOSELY it moves.

[@Gio-kx4vq]

Hylian Ticipated Liked for your profile picture.

[@HylianTicipated]

That 30fps GX intro reminds me of Mario Kart 8 split-screen multiplayer on Wii U

[@dellisrunken7841]

Can't wait to pay 50 dollars every time I lose my Joy Con to get a new one

[@enochburning]

$80*

[@cameltheog874]

Enoch no 1 joycon is 50, 2 is 80

[@OscarGomez-cu9vm]

Dellis Runken Why would you lose your Joy-Con in the first place?

[@yewweilim714]

You lucky Americans I have to pay about 200 in my currency

[@flodusishigh6607]

actually the wii remote still costs 50 to 70 bucks in switzerland. the wii is over 10 years old....

[@flacoxavier]

Who else just loved listening to the Mario 64 Music in the back?

[@jingusflorpus4274]

Liam Moore that's actually not a bad idea.

[@theakiwar9118]

Liam Moore This is an excellent idea.

[@Conbot-qs5xk]

Liam Moore I'd play those.

[@PixelSergey]

[@TheGamePhilter]

I'm going to use HD rumble in the bedroom. *wink*

[@TheGamePhilter]

Michael Dust you caught me. 😉

[@CheetosForBreakfast]

My girlfriend left me for a joycon

[@johnscott9668]

Who wouldn't, I'm mean that HD rumble though, what do you have?

[@CheetosForBreakfast]

Dora The XXXplorer 480p =(

[@johnscott9668]

lolz at least it's not 144p

[@STEM-ef7hj]

I have MK8 for the Wii U, but with no DLC. My dad pre-ordered Deluxe, and the reason I decided on it is it makes sense for me. The trade in value for MK8 is $25 at GameStop. $60-25=$35 Now subtract the DLC. $35 - $13 = $22 For me, $22 for new characters, new vehicles, MUCH better graphics, a proper battle-mode, and on-the-go playing, is defiantly worth it.

[@richardcastanon635]

That's actually a really good point. I didn't think about trade value, and I hadn't bought the DLC. Now I'm much happier that my mom preordered Deluxe without my consent.

[@richardcastanon635]

Also, I'm sure the Switch and Deluxe will be slightly cheaper if you have that GameStop rewards thing, so it'll probably bring the $35 down to $30.

[@KanaTheFoxxo]

1 hour not good enough I expected this to be at least a whole 48 hours guys come on step it up

[@ShaneLeGrand]

ALL DA CHICKEN IS MINE psssh only 48 nah I expected over 100 hours.

[@purplewarrior12]

I NEED THE SPLATOON ANALYSIS!!!

[@funkypants5023]

PinkWarrior Tomorrow

[@purplewarrior12]

David Okay. I just way too hype for all the info!! 😆

[@funkypants5023]

Although I'm not a fan of splatoon I know how you feel about a new game releasing.

[@Linkario86]

I hope they'll bring a new Mario Soccer. Loved it on the Gamecube

[@Linkario86]

Joshua Suh Yeah but I liked the Gamecube one better. No need to force passes to charge the ball.

[@tyrelle000]

Goeggi G if they don't make a new one at least we can look forward to the gamecube one again

[@temo2762]

Mabra51 fútbol

[@AllUsernamesTaken]

For those of you wondering, the Switch's pixel density is 226 PPI, so it is technically a Retina Display, if Apple were to classify it, meaning from ~12 inches away, your eyes can't distinguish the pixels. Tabletop mode will be FANTASTIC!!!

[@donnelwaddledee965]

You know why the Red and Blue Switch Preorders sold out first? Because people want to know switch Joycon is switch... eh? ...eh?

[@deathsoulv-yola2133]

....no.

[@dot4205]

Donnel Waddle Dee please stop it makes no sense

[@donnelwaddledee965]

shamir castillo It's it's wordplay, because instead of Which...it's Switch.

[@ryanbailo2665]

We appreciate your trying... but no. XD

[@diamondheat9]

+Cirac1 lol

[@JackJellyv]

Havent watched yet but I hope Mii's are still there

[@dominic9578]

Jack Jellyv no they are gone on the switch

[@romeostars]

Jack Jellyv they are in the switch just not miiverse or streetpass

[@zequi007]

Dominic van der Schans they are still there. You can see them on Mario kart 8 deluxe, when playing solo and choosing a car or stage they appear in the back (like showing how many people were playing and choosing the stage)

[@dominic9578]

sorry i meand streefpaas and miiverse gone i diden't no that

[@lukedoedel147]

Darkened KingBoo 😂😂

[@jaredkhan8743]

Ik there's not much content, but isn't inkling and PORTABLE Mario Kart 8 worth it alone? Let my say again, PORTABLE MARIOKART 8.... PORTABLE

[@thebluePumpking]

Jared Khan Awesome picture :)

[@Kwizii]

Jared Khan What's the keyword in your sentence again? :D

[@mystere4838]

Jared Khan Thats a darn good argument.

[@JesusChrist-bd7ur]

Not when you already bought it on the wiiu and it has no new tracks other than battle mode stages and a few new characters and also costs 60 dollars. That being said I'll probably still buy it because I really like mk8...

[@athemocracy]

Is portable MarioKart worth it? Nah, I'll stick to my 3DS & M.K.7.

[@wasmadeinthe80s]

Not going to lie, the way you handed this Q&A, non-bias, in detail, offering comparisons to other features, made me subscribe. Keep up the good work!

[@louish5068]

I am hype for Splatoon 2 too

[@louish5068]

Also hope that there are themes for home screen like 3ds

[@pikaijzer]

Yes, I want ma custom themes with homebrew

[@AnnalinaSR21]

meh

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

Yes IMO!!

[@Schnickelo]

So, we know Miis are returning. That begs the question: how will they be used?

[@avaman1993]

Schnickelo They will sell crack in miiplaza

[@cosmicKarma]

Schnickelo More than likely multiple users, some multiplayer games and maybe some other things. Not really sure.

[@Schnickelo]

I hope we can transfer our Miis from 3DS/Wii U, because I don't want to have to remake all 200+ of the ones I've created.

[@CalebCraft10]

Schnickelo Tomodachi Life 2! Add more things to do, completely new games and dreams, the possibility of Miis breaking up or maybe even dying! Yes!

[@GamingBoy0422]

Schnickelo Tomodachi World Kind of like the sims and Animal Crossing is a life simulation game where u play as Your Mii and go to other places around the globe and do some real Life stuff in this gorgeous game

[@Just-J-10]

Real-time rendering of lots of grass has been an on-going challenge. Even in the PC world. The hardware isn't there yet.

[@fletchthebirb]

Think about this, you can reduce the lag by burning all of the grass I the world, you could actually improve the performance of the game of your own free will.

[@CheetosForBreakfast]

burning grass usually doesn't improve performance for me

[@Just-J-10]

Turn away from the flames.

[@oly4179]

Can you use a Wii U pro controller on the switch

[@Coneizard]

Nathaniel Punoose - I really want to know this, because a switch pro controller is a mighty $70 like what??

[@fsaidx]

Nope.

[@fsaidx]

Thegamer 16 have 20 of what?

[@fsaidx]

Thegamer 16 the Wii U controller is not compatible with the switch.

[@fsaidx]

Thegamer 16 gotcha. I was replying to the person who asked the initial question about the Wii U Pro controller. And so when you replied to me, I thought you were talking about that. Anyway carry on.

[@Andreas32300]

What I want for Fire Emblem Warriors: - Tactical approaches before and during battle, like, you can plan before the battle and how to execute in motion or even change plans during battle - Pair Up system (similar to Samurai Warriors 4) - Weapon forging (similar to Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires) - Weapon triangle (FE has it, and DW has it too, so why not?) - Weapon durability (Weapon durability -1 after one battle) So many other things I wish for Fire Emblem Warriors... Like, you mix DW's hack and slash with FE/DW hybrid tactics (real time version)... Not just beating up many soldiers around, you need tactics and strategy to win!

[@ArcherGirl4]

at 4:23:44 of the treehouse live video on Nintendo's KZbin is the UI (as well as the main screen for Zelda and the load files and about 20mins of gameplay past the plateau including explaining horse taming and they also come across some villagers battling bokoblins)

[@michaelo.1320]

Not enough good launch games to warrant buying the Switch when it first comes out (for non serious Zelda fans) , and I own all the Nintendo consoles. Since I'm kind of indifferent towards Zelda but a die hard Mario fan, I think I will, and perhaps a lot of people, wait until Christmas.

[@ReachStudioPro]

+Michael O. Just wanna correct you. "Not enough launch games *for my taste* to warrant buying the Switch when it first comes out". There, I fixed it for you. You're welcome.

[@michaelo.1320]

Thanks bra

[@kingofrice8364]

Michael O. Agreed, I'm pretty much only buying a switch for Splatoon 2... So I'll just wait for a bundle with Splatoon.

[@ApatheticRequiem]

Implying you need to be a huge Zelda fan to think BotW looks fucking beautiful and be hyped for playing it.

[@bridge-moonproductions6823]

+Fernando Banda Tell me how that question is relevant to anything I just said.

[@therealmichaelgarcia6113]

JOYCONZ BOYZ

[@avaman1993]

Is that joycon red or orange? People killed each other arguing over it.

[@cosmicKarma]

avaman1993 It's neon red.

[@TomasJefersonSanchez]

avaman1993 orange? To me it looks like more of a salmon pink

[@romastute4499]

avaman1993 red and blue

[@avaman1993]

TomasJefersonSanchez Pink? It's a three way war then.

[@avaman1993]

lonesomeBlook VA And wiiu had unprecedented support. Nintendo statements are irrelevant. Facts talk. Red or orange?

[@samvazquez6767]

You guys have have the. Most un-biased; most informative video we've watch so far for the #NintendoSwitch! Thank you!!! Keep the info flowin'

[@jackmoffat7417]

I didn't like the red and blue joy cons at first but now that I have been looking at them for an hour they are starting to grow on me

[@theicyphoenix1063]

Hey, when zelda has been out for a while and people had time to beat it could you reveal what it was that you saw at the event that you where not supossed to?

[@Yelji]

TheIcyPhoenix106 Agreed, I just wanna know what was so big that they gave away

[@GeneralSmolderas]

TheIcyPhoenix106 They shouldn't.

[@DSoverPSP]

Rabbids.

[@adamharris306]

In the reveal trailer, they DID show Splatoon being played with the Pro Controller on the go, didn't they?

[@JesusChrist-bd7ur]

Adam Harris yes

[@lightblur7233]

Legend has it, if you comment early, horse Andre will bless you with its prescence.

[@samuelharrison7867]

Where my Zelda analysis Iv been waiting days for guys!! No rush just keep up the awesome work

[@PowerfulMint]

GameXplain's going to be in the 1 million subscriber club by the year's end. I can feel it.

[@BlackRaveBow]

They should have announced more, like Pikmin 4.

[@BlockSquad1000]

I have a feeling that will be announced at E3. I wanted it too.

[@JesusChrist-bd7ur]

BlackRaveBow they are holding back for e3

[@BlackRaveBow]

Isn't E3 in June? The system comes out in march. They need a good launch. They are only hurting themselves if what you say is true.

[@TheCrabMiner]

They do have a good launch. This one of the best launch years in recent history, if you think the Switch's game lineup is shaky and that they need to do more this year then you know literally nothing.

[@dlink1013]

Where would I be without it Gamexplain?!

[@heta1755]

dlink1013 probably in jail.

[@dlink1013]

+Heta there's more truth in that answer then you know.

[@rgkong8783]

I feel like when smash bros comes out, everyone is gonna have to buy new joy cons 24/7

[@samnjamn121]

RGkong I'm pretty sure competitive Smash players will just keep it docked and use the Gamecube Adaptor.

[@rgkong8783]

Samn- -Jamn and only the handheld version it's split

[@jovani6044]

We are so lucky to have you gamexplan. thanks for keeping us informed. Lots of info that always keeps me interested.

[@SuperMarioFan1001]

47:07 Uh-oh, looks like Nintendo found out Derrick almost told us Breath of the Wild spoilers! Run!

[@MUSQUIZanimation]

The ultimate question: Which will you buy? Colored bundle or grey?

[@anthonymignano8194]

MarutoFighter grey

[@guilhermeoliveira2729]

Colored are for gay, bye

[@MattTheMan2708]

Coloured. Grey is generic and boring.

[@bhk7898]

I went to Gamestop, and the last pre-order available was for the grey one, so I'm getting the grey.

[@theakiwar9118]

MarutoFighter Colored was out of preorders, so sadly gray

[@Ravio.Helianthus]

Nooooo. GameXplain, I'm supposed to be studying. Y U DO DIS

[@Ur2ez4me81]

Luigi's mansion, pokemon snap switch, punch out, DK, wave race, excite bike, Metroid, Mario party, Switch sports, pilot wings, kirby, Nintendo land switch, smash bro's... Make it happen Nintendo!

[@TheUltimateDiamond]

hello! I love your videos! You're the best youtuber ever!!

[@paradicelane3350]

Not a question, but here's my opinion on the Switch: It's freaking awesome!!!!! I never thought I'll see the day when Nintendo really think outside of the box to place in these configurations and provide us, Nintendo &/or gamers in general, on what this console really shows off! Definitely a must-have console. Also, I'm starting to think that Nintendo may be #1 again...

[@codyrodriguez280]

The switch will be the 3ds of consoles, hard launch, but great afterwards

[@heroicnerd2463]

Great questions everyone! Here's my response: 1) Framerate -- bothers me too that it gets choppy, however, I heard from Gaijin Hunter, that in Japan, they made an announcement that they will do their best to work on it... so hopefully they'll have an update ready to go or something :) I hope the Switch is powerful enough so that future games (like Skyrim, Mario Odyssey, etc.) don't have framerate issues. Maybe, it's just due to the fact that Zelda was developed for the WiiU initially. 2) Pro Controller on the Go -- if this is not possible, that will be TERRIBLE for them. I think it'll be fine because they are advertising that they want people to play Switch all over, anywhere, any time, and also for the fact that they are trying to promote Esports, so they'll need hard core gamers who prefer the Pro Controller to be able to use the Pro Controller in any situation. 3) The colored joycons are fantastic ! However, I want the basic black first, because with all my devices, I feel like I get distracted if the screen and its surroundings aren't black lol BUT I will be getting a set of matching color neon joycons to use as a separate controller :)

[@heroicnerd2463]

thanks!

[@bennyboy2277]

The Heroic Nerd Pro controllers can definitely be used with the switch in portable mode.

[@biddera6825]

Nintendo have stated that they will do anything to reach a stable 60 fps even for graphical fidelity

[@higuisitsmayamia]

120p 60fps would be a good tradeoff

[@BioTroy]

I just had a terrible realisation, it's very likely Smash 4 Switch comes out AFTER the online service free period...

[@derrickbell5236]

BioTroy You still have local tho

[@theakiwar9118]

BioTroy Well shit. Well I am going to do some more extra hours today at work

[@BioTroy]

Well yeah, nothing beats local but I also happen to play a ton online too (For Glory/With Friends). Regardless, I'm with Ash - I don't mind paying for online as long as it's GOOD online akin to xbox live. Knowing Nintendo though, I'm not expecting much...

[@anthonymoore4307]

BioTroy well the only solution.... Don't be another sad cheap little kid

[@derrickbell5236]

Anthony Moore What are you even talking about? Just get out. -_-

[@takemetoyonk]

thanks for the perfect background music! you guys know how to make informative things more fun

[@glennlumanta5076]

I love your work GameXplain!

[@Sim-lq8ck]

Glenn Lumanta me too

[@flamingpaper7751]

I don't have an hour to watch this. Does the Switch use cartidges or discs?

[@RocSolidGaming]

Flamingpaper Carts

[@flamingpaper7751]

RocSolidGaming Thanks. Nintendo has never officially said which based on what I've found

[@harrisondeitz5255]

Flamingpaper they have actually, in fact they showed images of the Zelda cartridge.

[@EnteIexia]

Cartridge. And they mentioned it a lot. They even showed it in the reveal trailer. The guy puts in a cart not a disc...

[@interactivehero5004]

Flamingpaper cartridges Wath the trailer m89

[@esoricky4337]

I can't wait to see what Nintendo does with the "Mario & Luigi" series on the switch since their trying to replace Paper Mario with it!

[@mystere4838]

Can you guys explain what you meant by "Launch line-up isn't that great" when BOTW is day one among other things. Plus, didn't Reggie say in a recent interview that throughout the rest of January and February more titles will be announced for the Switch?

[@Sim-lq8ck]

Historic Duel BOTW is also on the Wii U, so there isnt a reason for Wii U owners to buy the Switch day one.

[@mystere4838]

Gyasim​ I'll give that to you but, i did say among other things. It wont launch by itself.

[@iownalx23]

Historic Duel zelda and 1 2 switch. 2 games at launch. after that yea it gets better.

[@mystere4838]

iownalx23 I thought Bomberman was launch title.

[@mystere4838]

iownalx23 ?

[@Durak87]

Lovely tune in the background! Dire,Dire Docks - Water Level Theme - Mario 64/N64

[@brendansweeneymusic]

Fun drinking game: Marathon all of GameXplain's Switch discussions, take a shot every time Ash says "Gee WIz!"

[@yummyhershey5902]

Would anyone here rather have no touchscreen and have the price reduced/used for something else on the console?

[@drawesome7029]

I think on of the gimmicks of the Switch is that is included a feature from every main Nintendo system. If they left out the touch screen, that would just feel weird. Also, just think about the possibilities that will open due to the touch screen.

[@yummyhershey5902]

Dr. Awesome It is true that the touchscreen has a lot of possibilities, but I feel like many developers sound skip out on it

[@yummyhershey5902]

Fernando Banda You're right about that.

[@richardcastanon635]

The right JoyCon has an IR sensor which will probably function as a stylus for TV play. Also, games will probably be required to be playable in some way without the touchscreen. The touchscreen is mostly used for convenience in menus, the internet browser, and other services used with the Switch.

[@yummyhershey5902]

Richard Castanon It's just a camera that's used to recognize hand symbols. They never stated that it would be able to be used to navigate menus like on the Wii.

[@makingitwork2]

Do we know if the headphone jack works when the Switch is docked?

[@nandernugget]

Why would you use the headphone jack on a docked system?

[@makingitwork2]

Skankhunt42 Because I use my game systems through a computer monitor.

[@TJ-gp5hv]

I feel like 1 2 Switch should be the demo game bundled with the Switch, like Wii Sports.

[@TheTeaBreak2]

i can't get enough of your videos but i felt this video you guys answered alot of similar questions and could have picked more varied questions.

[@origin_mc939]

I have three questions: 1) Can you use Wii U games on it? 2) Is the Switch disk based or cartridge based? 3) Do you think it is worth getting the switch just to play Zelda if you already have a Wii U that you can play it on?

[@kaynewoolley9104]

Glad they mentioned the insanity that is the pricing in Australia. I live in New Zealand and the Switch is 550 dollars. I did a USD to NZD conversion and it should only be 420. Also 120 for a pro controller and 130 for a joy con set. For the Switch, a pro controller and breath of the wild im looking at 770 dollars. Stupid me will still buy it day one. Thanks Nintendo. 25 years supporting you and you still want more.

[@LordShaske]

Kayne Woolley BOI... 399.99 here in Canada... I'm not even counting the accessories man...

[@gumbo64]

Kayne Woolley the same time I see you in the world to me and my dad is a great day to be a good day to be a great day for the next few weeks of school tomorrow and I'm still not sure what I was a great way of the day before I get a follow back on my way home and watch it with my family and friends of a good one to the same as I have a great way of the day before I get a follow back and the first place I have no clue who I want a relationship is the only thing that would be nice if I was a great way of life

[@kaynewoolley9104]

Gumbo64 the rumor come out. Does gumbo64 is gay?

[@itsohkayee]

$720 for me in australia if i want a second set of joycons, and joycon grip and a game. >.>

[@EpicMarioBros]

People are complaining too much about the launch titles. Remember the 3DS? It had like nothing day one. At least we get Zelda.

[@Poever]

EpicMarioBros Nintendo DID want Nintendogs + Cats to carry the system clearly

[@zachary5094]

Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door better come to the Nintendo switch.

[@suminse]

would be so nice if you could upload your discussion videos like this one as podcasts so i can listen to it on the go

[@CrimsonDragoon23]

From what ProJared said, the version of Breath Of The Wild that was shown at the preview event was the E3 build, so the FrameRate issues will most likely be non-existent by the time the game releases at retail.

[@sundaydan1119]

who cares about breath of the wild and splatoon 2? i want NEW GAME. You know? that one game revealed in the parental control video

[@richardcastanon635]

It wasn't just NEW GAME. There was also NEW GAME and NEW GAME. Get your facts straight.

[@sundaydan1119]

no, just NEW GAME stook out to me. i couldnt care less about NEW GAME and NEW GAME

[@lol-vl3bj]

Hero Of Legos773 You want NEW GAME? That's gonna suck, NEW GAME is better

[@sundaydan1119]

Alex Diaz please. NEW GAME is nothing compared to NEW GAME

[@MarcoGamer640Productions2012]

Hero Of Legos773 Fuck your little new game. Everyone knows that New Game is better than New Game.

[@liamm_moore]

Do you possibly know if the Switch is liquid poo resistant? That's a large reason why I had to go through 3 WiiU's, hoping not to need to worry about it for the Switch

[@jingusflorpus4274]

Liam Moore ...why is that a problem? Did your baby sister poop on your wii u?

[@rgkong8783]

Liam Moore is this a joke or you for real?

[@AliceBright]

These replies are retarded

[@jingusflorpus4274]

GonandKillua aww, thanks.😘

[@xenokingdom3630]

Liam Moore Assuming "poo" was an accidental typo... How did you manage to spill liquid on a Wii U THREE times? Are you sure you're ready for a console...?

[@joseantoniovaldivia3093]

Does the Switch allow you to have multiple profiles.

[@CyberWolf3858]

SenpaiPPMD the Wii U already does so I'd imagine the switch will as well

[@wiiu42]

Maybe. The Wii U allows for this, but the 3DS family does not.

[@dereksturm263]

I'd imagine not because this is more of a one person console

[@pkmnTrainerGold0]

Didn't the Parental Controls video say something about this? I can't remember exactly what it said, but it seemed like it said that there was multiple profiles.

[@Gaaron01234]

pkmnTrainerGold0 the parental controls apply to one system, not to one account. That's all the parental video said on the topic.

[@evangreen7031]

I'm so happy cause MARIO kart 8 was like the only Wii U game I didn't buy and now it's getting an upgrade

[@Mr_Meeks]

Pro controller works in both TV and desktop mode. In the original trailer it shows someone playing skyrim with it at home and another scene is the splatoon team practicing in tabletop mode with the pro controller

[@ThatOneAwkGuy]

Did ANYONE wonder how durable the Joy-Cons are? I'm afraid that dropping the Joy-Cons on a hard floor once would completely destroy them.

[@VampyrenYuuki]

Nintendo controllers and consoles have always been more durable than I would ever imagine (dropped a few consoles without having any issues after and also.. many controllers shh) So I would believe there is no difference with the switch, and it does come with straps to prevent you from throwing it everywhere so there's that :)

[@maxshapiro078]

VampyrenYuuki Yeah Nintendo's hardware is surprisingly durable. I've dropped my 3DS like a thousand times and have only gotten a few small chips

[@NickTheSickDick]

And they're very light.Not much force on impact.

[@cowboyluigi5275]

I don't know why but the Nintendo hardware I purchase is the opposite; it breaks easily. I dropped a Wiimote on a carpet floor and it broke.

[@jeremyzorek]

You got defective Nintendium, bro.

[@IGamesNetherlands]

can someone say the minute of framerate of breath of teh wild.?? im too lazy too search for it

[@deathsoulv-yola2133]

It's good. Better than the Wii U version.

[@MattTheMan2708]

They talk about it in like the first three minutes.

[@Cirac1]

Soft 30 on the TV due to higher res, about 40 on handheld mode due to 720

[@soullinks]

I don't have MK8 but I love it so is getting deluxe a good idea?

[@MegaNerdX]

Anyone else find it funny how the neon joy cons included with the switch match up with Plusle & Minun set up from Pokemon? Red Plusle for the Plus side & Blue Minun for the Minus side.

[@jamiewilkinson2323]

"They're not heavy at all, they're like paperweights." >.> well that's a conundrum lol

[@KS-vc8um]

They need to lower the price to $250 or sell it with a game.

[@theakiwar9118]

The Joker Would be smart if they did the same thing as the Nintendo 3DS Bad Launch-> Price Drop-> Bundled great games (mario 3d land, mk7, Nintendogs + cats bundles)

[@bananamcfruitington3107]

Nintendo is only able to have a $300 pricepoint because they plan to make money off their controllers being sold seperately.

[@dgripper05]

The Joker why?

[@anthonymoore4307]

The Joker cheeeeeeap

[@CheetosForBreakfast]

No they don't.

[@fsaidx]

Good on you guys for not revealing that spoiler, that would have been really bad for that employee :/

[@daniebates9948]

Is there a possibility of kh3 coming to the switch?

[@embassy2763]

Danie Bates there is a possibility but who knows when it will ever come out even on ps4 it could be 2018 or longer

[@TheVisionaryLeo]

it comes out on 2609 feb. 31st

[@daniebates9948]

The switch supports unreal engine 4.

[@killaknight12]

Using the Pro Controller on the go was actually shown in the first Switch trailer and the recent presentation. Considering the console is fully functioning at any time, I guess you can connect as many controllers as possible.

[@kleebaggins]

Andre's puns give my life meaning.

[@PersonStillPerson]

The thing is I have not got the DLC for Mario kart 8 so deluxe might be worth it...

[@JesusChrist-bd7ur]

Person Still Person if you didn't get the dlc deluxe should be good for you, for people who never bought mk8 even better.

[@richardcastanon635]

Sell your copy of MK8 Wii U. You'll get even more value out of Deluxe.

[@keistynthehedgehog3494]

super smash Bros has to be in Nintendo swich

[@embassy2763]

Keistyn the hegehog it will be but not in the first year

[@sluttyvergin69]

Embassy why do you say that

[@CheetosForBreakfast]

Super Smash Bros. for N64 will be on the Virtual Console. Fret not.

[@ChristianRogers3]

CheetosForBreakfast it wasn't on Wii U's

[@CheetosForBreakfast]

Which was bullshit. Same for Super Mario RPG. Wii U made me sad.

[@KanaTheFoxxo]

[@KanaTheFoxxo]

NOOOOO

i got one preordered hah

[@KanaTheFoxxo]

Benji Awesomness lucky

[@jowysw]

ALL DA CHICKEN IS MINE For reason in Spain Amazon offers the neon Switch for a higher price XD

[@KanaTheFoxxo]

lol

[@Cream147player]

Hey Andre, there are lots of people who loved MKWii with the Wii Wheel, and there are a number of crazy people like myself who still play MK8 with the Wii Wheel. If i were to get MK8 Deluxe (which is probably dependent on additional tracks via DLC at this stage) then I will certainly buy the Joycon wheel to play it with. Motion controls just make the Mario Kart experience that much more intense!

[@Anthony-rt1yl]

Zelda uses HD Rumble when firing arrows, for example.

[@HARSA-gn1mp]

Will KZbin be on switch

[@leonpgut]

Does the pro controller have a USB-C port or does it work on batteries?

[@SwagTube]

King Luigi Yes
