The Big Topic: Our thoughts on the Nintendo Switch's price, tech, and launch lineup.

After a surprisingly strong teaser back in October, all eyes have been on Nintendo and it's upcoming console/handheld hybrid Switch. Nintendo revealed the price ($299!), the release date (March 3!) and the launch games (Zelda and… a cow milking thing?), and our feelings are… complicated. We spend the entire podcast talking all things Switch, digging into our thoughts about the tech, its lineup of games for 2017, and its potential for success. Oh, and Anthony talks about eating a hat made of butts. It makes sense in context.

Hosts:

Anthony John Agnello (@ajohnagnello)
David Roberts (@davidrobots)
Susan Arendt (@susanarendt)
Connor Sheridan (@c_sheridan)
