Nintendo Unveils Switch, Its New Console

Nintendo Switch

When up-and-coming cartoonist Keef Knight has a traumatic run-in with the police, he begins to see the world in an entirely new way.

After a year of development and a years-long crash landing for its Wii U console, Nintendo has pulled the curtain off of its newest console, called Switch.

A (not compelling, not particularly well-produced) commercial show that the Switch can be taken from the living room to the taxi to a rooftop party (social repercussions be damned), with multiple ways of interacting with games (wireless motion controllers, directly with the device's mobile configuration, a single classic-style controller) that appear to have gotten a much-needed upgrade. In adition to Switch, Nintendo has also begun to license its properties for games on smartphones, like the massively popular Pokemon Go and Super Mario Run for iOS. 

Check out the trailer for Switch below.
