So there's a 3:36 second video embedded which shows what it does.  You can play in a cradle on your TV with an xbox meets PS4 style controller.  You can pop on some handles and take the main unit with you, which contains a sizable screen.  You can then pop those handles off and share a game with a friend, use them together to play games, or things can get as weird as you want.

What I found most concerning was that good looking TV models will go from playing actual basketball to playing NBA on a small screen with shared controllers the size of a captain's wafer...or instead of having drinks at a rooftop party, they would rather play mario, again, around a tiny screen....

It's an interesting concept, that's for sure, but I'm not sure how much better this than existing mobile platforms.  Anyone excited about it?

I'll give them credit for being original with the design, but you know most people are just going to keep it hooked up to their TVs.  I'm sure parents will love it for long car rides with their kids.  I wonder what the battery life will be like and if you'll need WiFi to play outside of the house.  I've never been a huge Nintendo guy after the N64, but I know the die hards will be all over this.

Looks amazing. I have a Wii U and love it, but not being able to take the tablet everywhere was a bummer. Not only do you get to do that here, but the different control types, HD console-quality gaming on the go are awesome. Absolute must-buy.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
