I don't know anyone that's more looking forward to Nintendo's next video game system more than I am. The Nintendo Switch was announced a while back and will be released in March. Somehow, there was an error in shipping or something as someone got their hands on one and showcased some of the features to show the world.
Nintendo unveiled their Nintendo Switch in a complete overview of what it is, how much it'll cost, online capabilities and so much more. No doubt it'll be a hot item this year when it launches on March 3, but here are a few things you should know before you buy one...
