I haven't paid any attention to Rabbids since, like, 2007. Did Ubisoft ever end up developing their personality beyond 'screams a lot and runs around sometimes'?

Two rumors.

 

1. http://letsplayvideo...extra-hardware/

 

The Switch will increase power through the dock... but because of hardware in the system itself, not the dock, and the dock will help keep it cool as it processes this additional power. Seems legit, I mean, obviously it's going to use more power to render better visuals on the TV one way or another.

 

2. http://letsplayvideo...logy-rerelease/

 

From Software has gotten Dark Souls 3 to work on Switch in a satisfying state, and may consider porting it and the first two Dark Souls games to Switch based on the console's market performance.

It acting like a Laptop is a no brainer in my opinion.

The shoulder buttons on the Switch are just like the GC Controller's, right?  Yeah, I'd say that was pretty much the evidence for it coming now, if that's what was stopping it on Wii U.

Since there isn't anything new here for Breath of the Wild, I decided to post this trailer in this thread instead. But, skip to around five minutes in, and we get to see Breath of the Wild running on Switch for the first time ever:

So, he's doing the segment in front of a studio audience, then pulls the Switch out of the dock and does all of the Zelda stuff in handheld-mode? Wasn't the point supposed to be to let everybody see what the game is like and what the system can do? At least his freaking out actually included some of the things he was doing, 'cause they sure weren't getting to see it.

I assume there was a camera feed of him playing it in handheld mode. Which, to be fair, that's its biggest draw, so it's nice to see that in action, along with Zelda running superbly on it.

Well, yeah, but that's not why, it's because he's shilling for a company that went and publicly called us gamers misogynists, or a "Hate Campaign", however they said it.
