    Good luck, the Switch is selling like hotcakes. The console has so much potential for some really creative games and interactions its standard gyroscope, accelerometer, infrared motion sensor, HD rumble, 5-point touchscreen, 2 thumbsticks, detachable joycons and the fact that it's portable. Hopefully the developers start making use of these features rather than just porting last year's Call of Duty. I'd love to see a new WarioWare game for it.

    • Have you got one? Is it too big to slip into one of those Cardboard-like VR headmount things?Nairn

    • Cool. Can't wait until they abandon it for a new console. ; )dopepope
    • whoa, switch VR. awesomescarabin
    • Tell me. What game was made better with gyroscope? forcing devs to make games that used the touchscreen is what ruined the vita.err
    • I just want good games I can play on a plane and games I can play in small chunks throughout my day.err
    • err, this game was all about the gyroscope and it was awesome:

    • that's the only example i know of though. :)Milan
    • Switch screen resolution is too low for worthwhile VR - along with the grunt needed to run it at a worthwhile framerate.face_melter
    • Surely it's more powerful than my Nexus 5 which offers a passable but not omgawesome VR experience?detritus
    • It is, but there's a huge difference between passive phone VR and dynamic VR games with tracking. Drop below a certain frame # and people start throwing up.face_melter
    • Oh sure, I don't for a second imagine Cardboardesque Switch VR would compare with 'real' kit - more as a plaything.detritus
    • Gyroscrope / Accellerometer based games are usually shit. Remember Wii? Joysticks + buttons 4 life.section_014
    • The bow aiming in Zelda BOTW using motion controls works really well. I preferred it to using joysticks. But the tilt-a-maze controls in shrines were utter shitMilan
