NVIDIA CEO Says We Will Be ‘Blown Away’ By The Nintendo Switch

In 3 more days, Nintendo is expected to take the wraps off the Nintendo Switch during a special presentation on the 12th of January. While the Switch might have been officially revealed during its launch trailer, pretty much nothing is known about the console, like specs, features, or even games available.

However it seems that despite us not knowing anything about the console, NVIDIA’s CEO Jen-Hsun Huang is pretty optimistic that it will “blow us away”. Speaking in an interview with VentureBeat, Huang was speaking about the upcoming console in which he pretty much waxed poetic about Nintendo as a company in general, and also about their upcoming product.

Huang was quoted as saying, “That entire experience is going to be very Nintendo. The beauty of that company, the craft of that company, the philosophy of that company—they’re myopically, singularly focused on making sure that the gaming experience is amazing, surprising, and safe for young people, for children. Their dedication to their craft, that singular dedication, is quite admirable. When you guys all see Switch, I believe people are going to be blown away, quite frankly. It’s really delightful.”

Note that NVIDIA has a stake in the Nintendo Switch’s success, namely due to the fact that the console will be powered by NVIDIA’s technology. This is not the first time Huang has praised the console, and he’s not alone as execs from other companies have similarly praised the console. We guess only time will tell if Nintendo has a winner on their hands.
