Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch Console, featuring the dock, the screen, and the Joy-Con controllers connected to the Joy-Con grip.

The Nintendo Switch is Nintendo's 8th home console. It was officially announced with a trailer on October 20^th, 2016, and is scheduled to launch on March 3^rd, 2017. The console itself is a gamepad similar to the Wii U Gamepad, but the sides of the gamepad can disconnect, allowing them to perform as stand-alone controllers. The console also includes a dock, in which you can insert your console, allowing you to connect and stream to your TV screen. Since the entire console is built within this gamepad, the Switch doubles as a home console and a handheld.

Pikmin content
