Thanks fo listing Hi-Fi Rush guys, definitely wanna get a pre-order in for this. Perfect timing now that the publisher has switched from Microsoft to Krafton as well so I imagine no money will be going to MS for this lol

@Ghost, it's not a local release we need to import the stock. So with shipping and customs it takes longer.

I expected as much from the battery life, technology improves but batteries have stayed the same if not worsened over time.

Paying $700 for a new iPhone 7 is all well and good but the battery will give you the standard 8 hours and much less playing basic shizz like Candy Crush.

This thing is going to be playing mammoths like Zelda BOTW and Skyrim, the battery won't be expected to last more than 3 hours

That was a terrible presentation and they started off on the wrong foot. This thing is way overpriced and the online paid service is probably going to have the same reception it did with PS3 users going over to PS4. Hopefully paid for online means we will get a proper online system where purchases are linked to our accounts like we have for PS and Xbox. Region free is a step in the right direction at least.

Didn't see anything I was remotely interested in, logged in to see what new threads there were and barely any trailers or even screenshots. Why announce a No More Heroes sequel if you can't even show a single in game screenshot? Not even a name, 1 piece of concept art. New Mario looks good but do I want to play another Mario game? No not anytime soon especially if I am buying a brand new console, I want to be playing something different.

Come on Nintendo where is the good stuff? New Metroid? We haven't had a proper Metroid game in years, put some damn effort into your IP's this could be huge and it's a series that can push sales. You need to spend money to make money stop recycling Mario assets.

Bayonetta 3????? Come on you have the best action game ever made and you can't release a new title with the console launch? This could generate sales from a whole new target audience.

Ultra Street Fighter 2 The Final Challengers? So basically a port of a title released early in the PS3 lifespan with 2 new characters? I mean cool but considering on the Wii we got a title like Tatsunoko vs Capcom I expected a bit more from you guys.

It's so sad to be so negative about a new Nintendo console but the one thing that really got me down was the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 trailer, when the first game was announced it was the first time I ever said to myself now this is what nextgen is, it blew me away even with the abundance of PS4 and X1 titles being shown Xenoblade Chronicles looked like a true next gen title, the sequel was just a guy with ugly pants running around doing nothing. People at Nintendo need to be fired and replaced with people that know what they are doing.

It's probably too early to show the new metroid and smash, maybe at E3?

what I recall most clearly was how I cringed at the SEGA presenter.... he did and said nothing! XD also he has the smallest eyes I've ever seen (and I'm asian), I thought they were shut or he was blind at first! XD

the translator was at a loss when the guy announcing Travis touchdown was talking.

Presentation was done badly, except the yoshiaki guy, he did a good job!
Still excited about the switch though
