Top 10 Best Upcoming Games Of The Month: March 2017

Who’d have thought that the first few months of the year would be filled with great video game releases. Here are the top 10 best upcoming games of the month for March 2017. Oh, and there’s a console launch in there as well.

Nintendo Switch Console Launch

Release Date: 3 March 2017
Manufacturer: Nintendo

The Switch is Nintendo’s much awaited hybrid console, and is finally launching on 3rd March 2017. It does not have a huge launch line-up but what it has it pretty compelling. Here’s a quick look at the console:

The Switch is considered by Nintendo to be a “hybrid” console. It is designed primarily as a home console with the main console unit inserted onto a docking station to connect to a television. Alternatively, the console can be removed from the Dock and function similar to a personal tablet computer through its LCD touchscreen, or placed in a standalone tabletop mode to be playable by several people.

The Switch’s most distinguishable features are the Joy-Con wireless controllers that include standard buttons and a directional joystick for user input, motion sensing, and high-definition tactile feedback. The Joy-Con can attach to both sides of the console to support handheld-style play, connected to a Grip accessory to provide a traditional home console gamepad form, or used individually in the hand like Nintendo’s Wii Remote. The Switch supports both physical flash ROM cartridges and digital content for games and software, and will not use region locking.
