Nintendo announced during its Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017 livestream event on Thursday that it is developing the 1-2 Switch and ARMS games for the Switch. 1-2 Switch will launch on March 3 alongside the Switch console, while ARMS will be available in the spring.
When playing the 1-2 Switch party game, players stand face-to-face and look directly into each others' eyes while holding a Joy-Con controller. Kouichi Kawamoto, the game's producer and the Switch console's general hardware director, said that the game is designed as an "icebreaker for all kinds of fun communication."
Producer Kosuke Yabuki describes ARMS as "a fighting sports game that uses extendible arms for battle." Players control characters such as "Spring Man" and "Ribbon Girl" by using the motion sensing features of the Joy-Con controllers.
