Nintendo teases "new interactive experience for kids" on Nintendo Switch

IMG_6458.JPG

Nintendo UK's Facebook account has had an interesting post recently; it seems the company has something to reveal at 10 PM GMT. Offering nothing more than a single sentence, the post tells fans to tune in to Nintendo UK's official site to "discover a new interactive experience for kids, and kids at heart". The Japanese Twitter account is currently teasing this reveal as well. Whatever it may be, stay tuned to this thread, which will be updated when the announcement goes live.

Uhhhhhhh.. How about no?

Nintendo releasing VC is just as plausible as you hacking your system.

I've lost faith in Nintendo getting off their asses and having definitive dates for their VC service, they should stop being cowards and just announce the damn thing. Nintendo Labo is just lame AF.

Well they do...if they are kids from the 70.

I understand on what they what to mean, as a kid you play with your toy and make some handmade accessories for make your play time more fun. I used to do that, joke aside, but i don't think kids today want this. Probably i will but...no dinosaur adventure kit Nintendo so, again, no deal.
Tbh I only care about they maybe bringing back project robots in some way (see the giant robot in the trailer)

If they not announce anything for VC i have the bad feeling that *insert console name here* Mini is gonna replace VC. Becouse is so strange that they have announce nothing aside from the Arcade title.

And Nintendo wonders why people pirate their games, because they can't decide a damn thing.

I still hope, like you, that VC will come on Switch. Mostly becouse sure i can grab a SNES Mini at retail price (no scelper) in my local store but i cannot take that SNES Mini with me.
The power of the Switch, if they add VC, is be able to play your childhood games on the game in they old beauty 8-bit and 16-bit. Something that as a kid i will love to do, i mean bring with me my adventure in The Legend of Zelda (NES)? I would love to do this, sure i have Breath of the Wild but...i just want to have the optin to still play the old games too.

I think this seems pretty cool for kids, this does not mean that Nintendo will not focus on their core gamers as well.
Don't be scared of just because they do something that is not appealing to you everytime. :)

The New 3ds and New 2DS can already do this. So you don't really need "the power of the Switch" for those generations.
But maybe we could see N64 VC on the switch :D

But kids in this era don't like this kind of stuff.

It depends. For my experience here in Italy little kids still love to do this stuff, so i can immagine that next christmas a lot of kid in my small town gonna have this.
But i can see why kids, in some part of the world or in general the majority, would not like this stuff.
