A 720P screen being split in 2 for VR? That resolution is going to be like using a 3DS screen, and at 30fps it's going to induce a lot of nausea.

Also no mention of a head strap of any sort.

Its supposed to be quite good. One of those where everyone looked at what they were working with and said "thats gonna be utter ****" and its apparently quite decent.

Not to mention having to carry the VR thing too?

I miss my switching thinking of buying another one but I have brought 4k TV snice, does anyone game on 4k tv ? How do none 1080p games scale? Or should hold out to see if new awitch rumours are true.

Play mine in 4K TV and it looks great to be honest.

I really want to get a switch but waiting for the rumoured details on the "pro" version as I'd want that and likely out this year

My son has a switch but I never use it as i want my own!

I wouldn't hold your breath that rumour has been around for years and the managing director of Nintendo America even said they have no plans for a switch pro this year as sales are still higher than expected the only time you do a pro version is when sales start to decline

And not to mention the Switch is designed around the idea of taking it everywhere

Indeed.

no different to 1080p content which is fine. it's SD you need to worry about on a 4K tv

Think if there is nothing official by e3 then I'll get a switch for myself

If the do announce a "pro" then I'll definitely wait for it

I genuinely think the rumours are just clickbait articles.

But we are close to E3, it's not long to wait.

Just a shame the battery is a bit crap. Feel like I play enter the gungeon or something for an hour and it’s already dropped from 100 to 60 ish percent. :/ auto brightness and in flight mode

Honestly I can't say I've ever found the battery to be an issue.

I have a PowerBank which IMO is an essential accessory for any proper long haul stuff but I seldom use it.

I've just bought a Switch what are the best games to play with a 5 year old? He already plays Minecraft, Plants vs Zombies 2 etc. on the Xbox so is quite experienced.

I have a 5 year old. He enjoys mario kart, smash Bros, the new Yoshi game we borrowed which is amazing and mario odyssey again we borrowed was really good fun. Both mario and Yoshi require a bit of adult help on certain parts. Yoshi is two player. If you don't have any of them I would recommend Yoshi the most
