Template:System-Infobox The Nintendo Switch is Nintendo's next home console, succeeding the Wii U, announced on October 20th, 2016 and set to be released in March of 2017.

Features

The game console will feature a main system that a controller can plug into. With the controller plugged in, the game footage will be displayed on the TV screen. With the controller detached, the footage will be displayed on the controller's screen. The buttons on the controller can be removed and used either as separate controllers, similar to Wii Remotes or used as one controller together. The detachable screen can be brought away from the console to other locations, unlike how the Wii U functioned, making this console more of a hybrid between home consoles and mobile consoles. The game will also use Nintendo DS-like cartridges.

Revealed Games

Among the games shown, a new 3D Mario platformer was revealed, showing Mario running around a town area, followed by a castle area. In another game looking similar to Mario Kart 8, King Boo can be seen racing, though it's unknown if he'll be DLC for the game or if it'll be a new Mario Kart entirely.
