RE: OT: The Official Video Game Discussion Thread
More concrete Breath of the Wild information is coming out slowly. Playing it on minimal settings in handheld mode will drain the battery in "less than three hours". It will output at 720p in handheld and 900p in "TV Mode" meaning that there will still be a considerable graphical fidelity gap between the Switch and the PS/XB offerings. I'm guessing that will make current generation 3rd party games damn near impossible to port to Switch, due to the already high draw and an increased desire for 4K resolution in those consoles. This will make for a decent handheld once the price is dropped, but it is absolutely no competition as a console unless you're a Nintendo-only gamer.

The 32GB internal HDD also leaves me scratching my head. I realize it's a space issue, but that, to me, effectively marks them out for all the major digitial releases, and all but confirms some form of cart.
