Hard to tell because of the angle, but the world did look more detailed when stationed.

I didn't know Fallon was a gamer. He was being a total fanboy about the Switch and having Miyamoto in the audience.

Maybe...but I really don't think you can conclude anything from a blurry, over the shoulder camera angle reflecting the glare of the studio lights.

They've said all of the hardware for the device is in the tablet. However, maybe it will go into a power saving mode when undocked to conserve battery life. Or the resolution of the tablet screen is lower than what it will output to a TV.

Will preorder for Day One, pending any terrible news from the Jan. 12th event.

I think I like it enough as is, but I would love to see (in order of preference):

Solid 3rd Party Support
Near X1 power
Gamecube/N64 Emulation
Good storage
Slick and Fast Interface
Old Franchise Made New - F-Zero, Metroid, StarTropics, something unique
Mobile App Store (Netflix, Amazon, etc.)

I would love it to be the only mobile device I travel with, but that isn't a deal breaker for me.

I trust Nintendo to put out their first party games. If it ends up like the Wii U I'd be disappointed, but satisfied (I've still played that more than my X1). If it can bring back 3rd Party Support and sell like the Wii, we're in for a treat.

Big gamer. He normally has the newest things on his show, like kinect when it was coming out i believe. Wouldn't have been surprised to see PSVR on there.

The rumor is that the dock contains a fan and removes need to maintain battery which allows it to display in 1080 as opposed to 720 on the tablet.

I don't believe that at all honestly

Fallon is a big gamer. He had No Man Sky on a long time ago and that turned out great...

I don't see myself getting a switch right now but there is always potential they could sell me on it.

He's a huge gamer.

He had Nicole Kidman on his show about a year ago, and she told the audience of how they first met a few years back when she was invited to his apartment in NYC.

She said Jimmy basically ignored her the entire time she was there and played video games instead.

Day one. The Switch may very well have the best first year lineup of any game console in history.

- Super Mario Switch (rumored to be the spiritual successor to Super Mario 64)
- Zelda: Breath of the Wild
- Mario Kart Switch (MK8 + new content)
- Pokemon Stars
- Mario x Rabbids RPG
- Super Smash Bros Switch (Smash 4 + new content)
- Pikmin 4
- Splatoon Switch (Splatoon + new content)

And that's just first party content.

They had him play Zelda

At this point it's a guaranteed launch title

Wow. That has to be the most embarrassing thing to ever be said about anyone. Unless she's into video games, why would you put a video game on with a hot chick in your house? Then again, as a famous person, I'm sure Fallon has hot chicks at his house often.
