Nintendo Switch Revealed! Interesting Things to Note

Well it's finally be revealed! Codenamed NX has been shown to the world and its name is the Nintendo Switch!
Cue the images!


This is one weird, but interesting device. Anyway, I'm not here to sell it. NX speculations confirmed. dual-type device for home and on the go.
Tablet to console, to handheld. Controls on the sides in handheld mode are confirmed removable. The controls are wireless and may operate via Bluetooth with a flat layout like the 3DS/Wii U gamepad. The layout is also similar to the Xbox line of controllers (or the GameCube...)

 This controller, which seems like the standard controller has what looks like a touchpad, that most likely works with amiibo.
Taking apart the controls from the "touch pad" to use on the "tablet"

Removed controls operating wirelessly
Nintendo went with a slate form handheld approach so I'm left wondering about the 3DS lines. I have no worries then, but I doubt we'll be seeing a main Pokemon game or such "handheld titles" on the Switch.
Which leaves me thinking that the 3DS isn't over yet.

And here's that confirmed flash memory! Like the 3DS on the go, the cartridge system is back at home. A great move in this time. Flash memory is now standard and incredibly stable.

And what's this!? A pro controller!? Nintendo didn't forget about us hardcores. But what really got me tripping is the games showed in the trailers. We have big 3rd party support it seems!
In fact I came across this tweet!


And among this hype is what looks like updated Splatoon (Splatoon 2!!!?) and a new Mario game!


I'm just jotting down the things I noticed in here which look quite interesting. Including those amiibo lined up next to the console. Technically Nintendo is still doing the Dual screen thing and I wouldn't have it any other way!
Check out the trailer for the Switch here if you haven't or even if you've seen it already! No free stuff today, just hype!


UPDATE:
Rogersbase just put up a video on the Switch. Check it out for his amazing reaction as he talks about some of the stuff I highlighted here!

TERA Character: Female Castanic

At some point I returned to make a gunner again. Castanics are really the better choice stat wise as the get all the fancy crits (somewhat). Here's a character I made for that at the time.   More pictures below My entire obsession with Castanics began with one image of a Castanic Lancer with the princess cut hairstyle. And of course, I had my Castanic Lancer. Lancers are my favorite strangely. Okay, so how to make her. You'll have to carefully follow the slider numbers showed here to get her done. That's it! I hope you like this face. If you used it, drop me a screenshot on Twitter @beaniedude114. Or give a comment!
