Ooohhh $299!

[TooB]

I don't think Nintendo has the experience to start charging for online services....


At least it'll be region free

[TooB]

2 1/2 to 6 1/2 hour battery life.....

So yeah, basically a 3-4 hour battery life. I called it.

ARMS seems like it could be cool if it has depth, and isnt just wii boxing
Splatoon 2 combined with actual social features could be god tier

also the 4chan leak looks to be totally right lol:
