    Notional control in each Joycon too.

    Edit: Also motion!

    Built in screenshot / share / stream button.

    You know, in case you were feeling generous and wanted to let Nintendo monetize your videos against your will.

    Joycon has motion controls in 'em so expect Wii backwards compatability I bet.

    sharing the joy sounds a bit euphemistic. :lol:

    Multiplayer with the Joycons is "Sharing the Joy."

    I'm a fan.

    300 is probably too much money. 250 was the cap where i thought it could be sucessful.

    Dammit. I knew tonight was gonna disappoint. Discussing this thing is gonna be the Wii U all over again.

    Well, at least I know better now than to hope for the best and argue for that interpretation. I can instead just check out.

    well it's standard USB so getting a battery pack is easy.

    Ooh, I like that strap. It has bonus larger buttons and isn't just so you don't throw it into the TV.

    They need to introduce American-sized versions of the Joycons. I can already tell that's going to be an issue.

    Alright, the camera thing sounds pretty silly.

    Hmm, the right joycon has an IR sensor, so Wii BC really is a possibility.

    Wiimote/Nunchuck being back is the best thing about this so far.

    Are they pushing for VR support with these controllers? Lot more tech than anticipated. Depth sensing, more refined haptics.

    Oooh this IR camera thing looks neat. Think that'd work like a Wii pointer too?

    ...yes, it has rumble. Ice cubes in a glass? What?

    This modular controller is going to end up costing $70 after the grip and the shoulder button thing. And then pieces will get lost because they're so small.

    Three ice cubes in a cup okay I take that back this is Nintendo goofy

    Wait, how in depth is the force feedback in this controller? This could be interesting.

    The little strap thing adding to the size is a nice move for those of us with big hands.

    Okay, they totally just let everyone submit ideas for controls and just did all of them.

    The joycon seems rather... overkill almost?
