With the release of Nintendo’s new home console quickly approaching, a lot of questions still remain about the actual games that the switch will play. After all its the games that make a console, so here’s what we know so far.

Nintendo Switch games will retail for $60, this puts a lot of arguments to rest about whether the switch will be actually be considered as a home console. In comparison, Nintendo 3DS games retail for around $30 – $40, a common price point for handheld games.

The cases the games are packaged in are slim and tall, but seem to be considerably smaller than standard DVD cases. This is likely because they’re designed to hold a card that houses the game, as opposed to a larger DVD or Blu ray disk.

As for actual game content, Nintendo stated that there were at least 80 third-party titles in development for the system from over 50 developers/publishers. We’ll only see a fraction of that at release, but those statements hold a lot of hope for the future content of the console.

With the new trailer for the Nintendo Switch showing off how it works visually, a full list of the actual features are yet to be revealed. However, it can be surmised that it will have the following abilities, at least judging from the trailer.

• A docking unit that is used to deliver the systems gameplay image onto a TV screen
• A HDMI port to connect with the TV.
• It seems necessary to use the tablet console to play games.
• It appears to have 2x USB sockets on the side.
• It looks to include a charging and power indicator light and is confirmed to charge the console when docked.
• The portable tablet is powered independently, allowing for mobile gaming.
• The controller consists of two parts which are detachable.
• The controller ‘parts’ clip to either side of the console itself, transforming it into a larger handheld device
• There is a separate independent controller available for home gaming.
