Nintendo announced that the Nintendo Switch will release worldwide on March 3rd for $299.99! The system will include the console, the Joy-Con (L and R), a Joy-Con grip, a set of wrist straps for the Joy-Con, a Switch dock, an HDMI cable and an AC adapter. There are two versions of the console set to release at launch. One will be a version with a set of gray Joy-Cons, and the other will have the neon blue and neon red Joy-Con. Both set to release at the same price.
Along with the announcement of the console, came the games. There will be 5 launch titles, as well as other games announced for the rest of the year. Of course, you have the new Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (which was amazing) and a new open world Super Mario game named, Super Mario Odyssey. What was great to see was a new Bomberman game, a new JRPG from Square Enix named Project: Octopath Traveler and a few other titles. Check out the Nintendo Switch line up for 2017 below.
Throughout social media, people have discussed the amount of games launching alongside the switch. Some have been either let down, or content with the launch title line up.
Not really! I prefer they spread games out rather than just let me beat a bunch in a week and then have nothing for months https://t.co/5F56k4jgGo

Might get a switch down the line when it's cheaper and if the games are good and running smooth.It's just definitely NOT a launch cop for me
