Nintendo’s innovative blend of portability and home console gaming, the Switch, was unveiled last October, leaving the gaming community eagerly waiting for the release date. The suspense ends here – mark your calendars for the worldwide release on March 3rd, 2017.
This cutting-edge hybrid console breaks with traditional gaming norms and will be available for purchase in the North American market at $299.99. In a move set to delight international gaming enthusiasts, the Switch will not be laced with region-locking software. This means you could purchase gaming software from virtually anywhere around the globe, delivering on Nintendo’s tradition of catering to a global community. The Switch will offer a paid online subscription service broadening the gaming experience with multiplayer and digital download options.
The launch is not complete without a game, and Nintendo introduces a quirky title, “1-2 Switch”. An exciting icebreaker designed to showcase the unique capabilities of the new console, the game is set to make a strong initial impression.

The radical design of the Switch centers around mobility and adaptability. The main console is ingeniously contained within a 6.2-inch display tablet. You can use this as a portable gaming device, similar to the Sony PSP, or dock it to your TV for a more conventional at-home gaming experience. Flexible and adaptable, the Switch is Nintendo’s response to the evolving demands of the modern gamer.
The inherent battery life of the console varies from 2.5 to 6 hours contingent on the games played—proof that the Switch is created keeping the gamer and their experience at the forefront.
Saddle up, gamers! Nintendo’s bold, innovative entry into hybrid console gaming is almost here. Be ready to switch up your gaming experience this March.
