Just as I hit submit on a Nintendo Switch piece, Nintendo Australia announced that we will learn more details on January 13th at a media event, which is set to take place in Tokyo.

 In a presentation to financial analysts today in Tokyo, Nintendo Co., Ltd. president Tatsumi Kimishima announced that further details regarding the company’s new Nintendo Switch home gaming system will be shared in the Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017, a live presentation for invited media, analysts and trade partners in Tokyo on 13th January. This presentation will also be globally live-streamed online and will include the exact launch date as well as a look at the line-up of games currently in development.

Mr Kimishima also announced Nintendo Switch sampling events for invited media and partners will take place in the United States, Europe and Australia starting from January. The public will be able to participate in future hands-on events around the same time, details of which will be announced later.

The exact times of the event will be announced soon, but until then we have to wait.
