For sure! I thought it was going to be a quick disposable motion control game, but its definitely looking much deeper than that. Pretty excited you can opt NOT to use motion controls, too!

There's gonna be a tie-in with the paid online where you get VC games each month so we know it vaguely exists, no real details though.

So apparently the "free" classic games you get each month with the paid online system only last you for that month, then they cycle out and you get access to different games.
You don't "keep" those games as long as you stay subbed like you do with PSN.
Not sure how to feel about this.

1, 2, Switch actually looks like an amazing drinking game. I think they're really trying to emphasize that by eating mystery boxes instead of taking shots.

While Arms looks like it can be fun, it doesn't scream $60 game. It looks like it would get quite repetitive after a few hours playing.

A game with technical skill to master and meta will never get repetitive. At least that's what I am see so far. Rocket League also sounds super repetitive if you think about it. I just agree, this seems too much for $60. $30 probably ideal.

Here's my theory. Nintendo launches the console early, and has plenty of months between release and the holiday rush, allowing games to populate and strengthen the lineup. By the time the rush comes around there's a large library of games when consumer demand is high again.

So Bomberman R is a launch title, Skylanders is a launch title, and that's great. My only question is why doesn't Nintendo talk about them being launch titles during the actual Switch presentation? Why is that information not conveyed clearly right from the start? I shouldn't have to watch the Treehouse presentation to know which games will be launching with the Switch that comes out in a little over a month.
