We knew a few things about Nintendo’s upcoming Switch hybrid home-handheld hybrid console after the first reveal back in October , and the rumor mill speculated on additional things like screen resolution and details on the Nvidia-sourced SoC. Yesterday, the house that Mario built offered more details about the Switch , including a release date, a list of launch titles, and pricing for the system and its first-party accessories.
Nintendo will launch the Switch worldwide on March 3. The base system includes the Switch tablet console, a left-right pair of detachable Joy-Con controllers, wrist straps for each of those pieces, grips to link the pair of Joy-Cons into a single handheld controller, and the requisite AC adapter and HDMI cable. The 6.2″ built-in screen has a resolution of 1280×720, as the rumor mill predicted.
The Mario-maker says that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and display-less party game 1-2 Switch will be available on launch day.
