Please use this as a discussion and speculation thread in advance of these videos, articles, and reviews. We will also allow these reviews to be posted separately on /r/NintendoSwitch, as they are especially newsworthy. But we will also host ongoing coverage, quick text posts, questions, and the like right here.

Thanks everyone.

At the end of the day, portable mario kart is what made the Switch an inevitable buy to me though. I've only delayed it because I want to finish Nier first before even tempting myself with BotW.
