Why I am confident enough to pre-order a Nintendo Switch

Pre-ordering is a dangerous game, an untried console could be a total flop. But I've got a good feeling about the Switch, I think I'm going to be very happy with it

When I went to bed on Thursday night, I knew I would be pre-ordering a Nintendo Switch as soon as I woke on Friday.

I had some rules for myself, of course. The price had to be right; there had to be at least one game I wanted coming on launch day, plus at least one other shortly after; and the implicit promises made in the first announcement - that it would be a truly hybrid system, as capable on-the-go as docked - had to be kept.
