Nintendo Switch specs and price REVEALED in announcement that’s set the gaming world alight
The latest console from the Japanese gaming giant had people going nuts about it on social media
Nintendo announced their latest console last week and more details have finally surfaced.
Rumour has it the Nintendo Switch is scheduled for release in the first week of March 2017, with a retail price of $299 (£244.22).
While many believed a bundle will be available for purchase at $399 (£344.22).
The news of the release date comes as many speculate the release of the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will launch at the same time as the new console.

If this is true it means the Switch will arrive on 4th March of next year.
While pricing comes after Tesco published a placeholder page for the pre-order of the new console, with the retailer listing it as for sale for £350.
The official Nintendo reveal, which will include a price and exact date is set to happen at some point later this year.
But in the meantime, NVIDIA, the company behind the console's graphics card have revealed the mini console will be powered by a custom operating system and a top performing GeForce gaming graphics card.
The Switch will also be Nintendo's latest console to run on gaming cartridges, which many have likened to the N64, but portable and much more slimline.
These cartridges contain huge quantities of space and allow devices to become more slimlined due to them not needing large amounts of memory.
