<p>Nintendo has released a video providing an overview of its next console, the <a href="http://ift.tt/2h60zGe">Switch</a>. The trailer offers a three-minute breakdown of all the features in the new hybrid device.</p>
<p>It starts by showing off the base unit and the tablet, before moving onto the Joy-Cons and showing how they attach to the tablet to offer a more robust gaming experience. There&#8217;s also a showcase of the TV mode, handheld mode, and tabletop mode.</p>

<p>The video digs deeper into the hardware inside the Joy-Con, which offers &quot;new HD rumble,&quot; allowing them to &quot;reproduce sensations and experiences in entirely new ways.&quot; The controllers&#8217; motion control capabilities are also highlighted, with attention drawn to their gyroscopes and accelerometers, as well as the right Joy-Con&#8217;s infrared sensor. The right controller also features NFC &quot;read and write&quot; tech, which allows the console to support Amiibo.</p>
<p>The left controller meanwhile, has a capture button, for saving screenshots&#8211;similar to the PS4&#8217;s share button. Each controller also feature two standard triggers&#8211;R/L and ZR/ZL&#8211;as well as two bumpers for when you&#8217;re holding only one Joy-Con: SR and SL.</p>
<p>The Joy-Cons are used to their fullest in <a href="http://ift.tt/2ka4h6D">1-2-Switch</a>, which recently had its <a href="http://ift.tt/2kMX7oP">weirdest minigame yet revealed</a>. If you&#8217;re curious to know what the Switch feels like to hold and play, check out our <a href="http://ift.tt/2jfhQkm">hands-on impressions here</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://ift.tt/2jpG4FP">Nintendo Switch launches on March 3</a>, priced at US $300/£280/AU $470. <a href="http://ift.tt/2j9p0T1">The console&#8217;s touchscreen was recently shown off for the first time</a>, using <a href="http://ift.tt/25PZGs7">Skylanders Imaginators</a>. The toys-to-life game is one of <a href="http://ift.tt/2jfhPwO">10 confirmed Switch launch titles</a>. The other nine are: 1-2-Switch, <a href="http://ift.tt/1fw32lD">The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+</a>,<a href="http://ift.tt/2aNkqrc"> Just Dance 2017</a>, <a href="http://ift.tt/1U9IHpR">The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild</a>, <a href="http://ift.tt/1ppvWy5">I Am Setsuna</a>, <a href="http://ift.tt/1ZjJw4l">Human Resource Machine</a>, <a href="http://ift.tt/USzvdt">Little Inferno</a>, <a href="http://ift.tt/VtDos1">World of Goo</a>, and <a href="http://ift.tt/2k8NEFb">Super Bomberman R</a>. For all the games confirmed to be coming to Switch&#8211;but not necessarily at launch&#8211;<a href="http://ift.tt/2jCBLGh">take a look at our roundup</a>.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The Switch launch lineup could continue to grow between now and release in March, but it&#8217;s unlikely there will be as many launch titles as there were for <a href="http://ift.tt/ZkBfj0">Wii U</a>, which <a href="http://ift.tt/2jfi1fq">had 23</a>. Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime recently spoke out to stress that launch is<a href="http://ift.tt/2jjQ0kh"> &quot;not the be-all and the end-all.&quot;</a></p>
