Nintendo Switch: The Five Keys to Your Success - TechnoTron
Posted by: TechnoTron Mar 04,2017
The video game industry is experiencing a historic moment. Nintendo, the company based in Kyoto and the certainty of being the most transcendent signature digital entertainment, comes back to load with a new system, this time hybrid between desktop and laptop, which will try to revolutionize the market as they did NES, Nintendo DS or Wii: Nintendo Switch, which goes on sale today for 329.90 euros. The games will cost 59.99 euros in most cases (there are always exceptions).
After the unsuccessful failure of Wii U, which has not accounted for more than 10% of sales accrued with Wii (13.6 million vs. more than 100 million worldwide), Switch arrives with revolutionary commands and does so with In their release of what is arguably the biggest project of the Big N that they have ever immersed in: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
Seeing the historical and transcendent of these launches, the company led by Tatsumi Kimishima wants to touch the sky again with his hands. Now, what are the keys that can lead to success for Nintendo Switch?
First, the concept of the console. What is Nintendo Switch? If you go to a large area and see this machine exposed, you will realize that it is both a portable machine and a desktop; And that is that modular tablet to which they are put two controls (Joy-Con) with buttons on each side through two rails, also has a Dock Station, which is nothing other than a signal transmitter from the tablet to TV with Full HD 1080p resolution.
It was important to respond to the needs of its audience, because on the one hand Wii U was not up to the level in the domestic terrain; While Nintendo 3DS, which is already six years old, is not technologically advanced and is beginning to become obsolete. Switch has a double task, and it is that offer to have a two in one which makes it something unique. Just put the console on that Dock Station, we will transform Switch into a traditional console, controllable with a classic control or with the aforementioned Joy-Con.
Ten years ago, when Wii sneaked into the living room of virtually all Spanish homes, the Wii Mote and its straps became part of our families. Motion control was cool, but the Joy-Con want to go one step further.
Its dimensions are now much smaller, although appearances deceive, because in those small devices hides the technological vanguard elevated to maximum power: motion control, gyroscope, infrared sensors to determine distance, shape and size, NFC reader for figures Interactive amiibo or a bunch of buttons to use these controllers both vertically and horizontally. What do you want to play Mario Kart with your friends? You can both, one with each command. Would you rather literally feel how many marbles are inside a box? You can also, because the biggest secret of the Joy-Con is the HD Vibration, a technology based on the haptic recognition that takes the classical vibration to a level that can only be described if we experience it empirically.
Apple device users know what it's like to have a premium terminal, which they're happy to pick up; Although it is also true that it is in line with the price paid. Nintendo Switch will cost 329.90 euros, a price slightly higher than its direct competitors - but lower than they had in their respective releases, and the truth is that it gives the feeling of having bought a console with an outstanding quality. The building materials feel durable, both in buttons and finishes; In addition, the console's rear cooling does not heat up after long gaming sessions and does not make noise. It is thin, light and comfortable, something that generated much skepticism when we saw its presentation trailer last October. Now, with a Nintendo Switch in our homes, everything indicates that from the Japanese company are laying the groundwork to perfection to achieve that much desired success.

Switch: A revolutionary concept

The Joy-Con, the evolution of the Wii Mote
Ten years ago, when Wii sneaked into the living room of virtually all Spanish homes, the Wii Mote and its straps became part of our families. Motion control was cool, but the Joy-Con want to go one step further.
Its dimensions are now much smaller, although appearances deceive, because in those small devices hides the technological vanguard elevated to maximum power: motion control, gyroscope, infrared sensors to determine distance, shape and size, NFC reader for figures Interactive amiibo or a bunch of buttons to use these controllers both vertically and horizontally.

You can also, because the biggest secret of the Joy-Con is the HD Vibration, a technology based on the haptic recognition that takes the classical vibration to a level that can only be described if we experience it empirically.
The seal of Nintendo: its exclusives
You have to be unique to achieve success in the competitive and populated world of video games. For this they need franchises with a great idiosyncrasy and personality. Nintendo has the peace of mind to have a huge fan of names that can only be played here, and among them we have The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild or these upcoming Christmas promising Super Mario Odyssey.
But to these we have to add for the period of communions Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or in summer Splatoon 2. In addition, it is expected that there is also some Pokémon for this year. What can fail like this? The only concern fans now have is that they will not recover classic franchises that have long been missing, such as Metroid or F-Zero. However, Nintendo has promised "a great launch every month", now that they have unified the development teams. Many promises, will they fulfill the expectations of the fans? The product they have, now it is cooked.

The most powerful laptop ever created
The power of Nintendo Switch will be less than the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, that should be made clear. However, at a portable level we had never seen anything so surprising in technical matters. The Switch screen, with a diagonal of 6.2 inches (bigger than a Galaxy Note 7 or an iPhone 7 Plus) in HD resolution, gives the sensation of having a traditional game of television in our hands.
"Switch has the advantage of being the most advanced laptop in history"
And believe us, it's wonderful. If you enjoy video games, know that you can take this concept anywhere (despite the short battery life, which will oscillate between 3 and 6 o'clock) is something that will play very in favor of your commercial success. When people know that you can carry a FIFA identical to the PS4 in your pocket, but also can run on your TV, perhaps more than one will rethink which version to buy. Despite that little graphic difference, Switch has the advantage of being the most advanced laptop in history.
Premium Sensations: Apple Style
