What kind of price is $249.76? Why not round to $249.99?

>>30631315
>Switch costs $250
>New 3DS XL costs $280
really makes you think

Not being able to run my S/M cartridge on it is enough to fuck me off.

>>30631315
>"The Sun and Moon port MAY end up having more features and could look better."
>Still believing rumors.

And a $250 price tag for the system itself is still too much for competitive Pokémon players, you'd kill VGC by doing that.

>Tapu Lele looking better

It's probably a currency mix-up, some non-US countries use the dollar symbol for their currency too.

If he was from a 3rd world country, then the Switch would be more than $250 in his country

>Tapu Lele gonna look better
You can't improve perfection.

>>30631527
>Fake rumors
$249.76 is a direct monetary conversion of a listed pre-order price in the UK
Virtual Console was leaked from Eurogamer, who has reported numerous leaks that ended up being true about the Switch
Sun and Moon port is admittedly a so-so rumor, it has some credible leakers backing it, but nothing super great for credibility.
The last one depends solely on the third one being true.

>>30631527
>titled speculation thread

>>30632017
>port for a game that was just released
>implying

>>30632103
That's why I said so-so rumor. The leakers I mentioned, admittedly, don't actually say port. They say Stars, which I personally believe will happen, though the name may change.

>>30632127
leakers are bullshit until proven true. Otherwise, we have synchro being believable again.

>>30632189
These leakers have gotten shit right in the past, though. That's why I believe them, though I can understand if you don't.

>>30631315
>Might be $249.76 US dollars
No it won't. Not only is that price random and stupid, it's not realistic at all. It will cost $300.
>The Virtual Console on their might do GameCube games, and the first 3 will be Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, and Melee
That's awfully fucking specific.
>The Sun and Moon port MAY end up having more features and could look better
Why would they port brand new games that are already on a wildly successful console that everyone who might interested in a Switch already owns?
>Tapu Lele gonna look better
Fuck your waifu shit.

$249.99 is likely though, as $249.76 is a direct monetary conversion from a pre-order price in the UK.
Virtual Console has been reported on my Eurogamer. They've gotten multiple Switch leaks correct in the past, so this one is likely.
Likely not ports, but Stars!

>>30632428
>$249.99 is likely though,
No it isn't. That's less than a N3DS XL. Nintendo would lose a fuckton of money on the console and be forced to rely on HUGE software sales to make up the losses.
>as $249.76 is a direct monetary conversion from a pre-order price in the UK.
Ignoring the fact that that's not how international pricing works, pre-order prices from rando sources are bullshit. I pre-ordered the original PS3 for $400 from Target.

>>30632694
What? A N3DS XL is $199.99. Dude, you've been getting ripped the hell off.

>>30632694
Whoa, you're right, that's not how international pricing worked for the 3DS! It was even cheaper, holy shit!

>>30632694
N3DS XL is $200. With the regular n3ds being like $150. Where are you located that a n3ds XL is more than $250? I'm pretty sure one of the consoles Nintendo took a loss on, but knew they would make it up on the first game purchase. I can't remember the article at the moment though.

>>30632694
Aren't the new Xbones only like $299?

Nice try, memelord.

>>30632189
The main leaker got tons of details about the Switch correct well before the reveal, including what the console looked like and did and the name itself. These aren't your Pokemon leakers who make up bullshit for funsies, man. For reference, the leaker in question is Laura Dale. I know she sort of gets shat on around 4chan because she's trans, but in her defense she has been consistently reliable in her leaked info posts on both the Switch and other subjects such as some AAA game sequel I can't be arsed to remember the name of that she leaked before it was revealed but the company bold-faced lied and said "it's not real" a month BEFORE they revealed it, so it's obvious her sources are solid.

>>30632694
New basic PS4s and Ones are in the 300 dollar price range, iirc. Nintendo could ostensibly afford to put out PS4/XB1 level systems onto the market at a 250 price point with the upgraded PS4 and XB1 coming out at a higher price of around 500 or so (IIRC).

>>30634938
>Trump keeps putting establishment politicians and extremely wealthy people in his cabinet
>he's just going to be Hillary but with a problem with China rather than Russia and with alt right pandering rhetoric rather than SJW pandering rhetoric

He fooled you. We were fucked with either choice. Get ready to have your anus reamed.

God I fucking wish. Just enough of the 3DS already.

I don't want more 240p Pokemon at 10 fps on double battles.
Touch screen can fuck off as well.

I really hope that the resolution on the Mobile screen is enough to remove those lines. I've had enough of em.

Elsewise, I don't see any reason how Gen VII Pokemon could not work on the Switch, other than the possibility of the lack of the in-battle status menus.

That, and if Gen IV, ever gets remade, the Poketch is likely going to be really dialed back.

>>30631400

nice delusion

>>30631534
grew up playing nintendo, familiar with how to work a fucking controller, actually plays video games to this day, followed the product, fangirl, etc.

An odd pick but one that I think was smart. Look at the initial reveal trailer, its clearly being marketed to appeal to an older crowd, perhaps those who used to play video games but now can't find the time. Jimmy Fallon is nerd enough to not look (too) ridiculous, but normie enough to have influence outside the gaming hemisphere.

>>30631389
>new 3ds XL is 190€
>switch will be 350€
really makes me think

They're gonna put out a peripheral to play games with "two" screens.

>>30638207
Pokemon doesn't need two screens.

>>30631315
>Melee on Virtual Console
I doubt it. I'm expecting Smash 4 Complete Edition to be released for Switch, and Melee also being available would hurt its sales too much, unless they charged about $25 for it.

>>30631315
only $250? Shouldnt it be at lest $299.99? even then id still buy one

>>30631534
Because he's a ninty fanboy and nintendo has realized that this way of marketing is not only cheaper than going to video game news outlets, it's also waaaaaaay more effective.

Why?

>>30640059
Probably a US price converted from some rumored euro/pounds amount. I've seen a lot of the latter floated around.

The Switch we saw it's just one of the versions Nintendo will release.
The one we saw is a perfect hybrid. Half handheld, half home console.
Nintendo will also show later next year other versions: a completely handheld Switch, with a bigger battery life; a completely home console Switch, which focuses on power.
Both versions will play the exact same games, altough with different performances.

i will buy switch for pokemon

Most gamers that have been doing it for any length of time either never gave a shit about game journalism, or are too jaded from THAT incident to give a shit anymore, so it's definitely a smart move to go through another outlet.
