It’s finally here. Nintendo first announced the Nintendo Switch last year, giving us a glimpse on what the new console can do. Now we get to see a much detailed look of the all new Nintendo Switch console.

Let’s recap what we already know based on their first reveal. The Nintendo Switch is a hybrid system that can be played in 3 different way. Firstly, it is a home console where you can enjoy your game on your big screen TV. Secondly, it is a handheld console where you can bring it anywhere with its built-in display. Lastly, it is a tabletop console where you can place the console on the table via kickstand & detach the controllers so you & your friends can play. 

• It comes with a Nintendo Switch 6.2 inch 720p touch screen console that has 32GB of internal storage which can be expanded with MicroSDXC cards with built-in battery that can last between 2.5 hours to 6 hours depending the games you play in handheld or tabletop mode.

• A Nintendo Switch Dock that would allow you to connect to TV.

• A pair of Joy-Con controller which can be attach & detach to the console unit.

• A Joy-Con Grip where the pair of Joy-Con controllers attach together to form a fully fleshed out single controller.

• A pair of Joy-Con Strap where it is attached to the Joy-Con controller so you wouldn’t loose or drop them.

• An HDMI cable.

• A/C Adaptor.

Speaking about the detachable Joy-Con controllers, it is far more capable than it looks.

The detachable controllers allow you to use each sides as a standalone controller with full set of buttons. The Joy-Con controller features an IR Motion Camera that can detect hand gestures, proximity & motion support. It also has haptic feedback where it can simulate vibration feedback based on player actions or certain events. Other features are NFC for your Amiibos & image screen capture button. Unfortunately, you cannot capture video clips of your game play.
