Just look how excited these paid actors are to play the Switch!

The barely three-month-old Nintendo Switch remains sold out everywhere. It's main launch game, "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild," is heralded as one of the best games ever made. And Nintendo's got a huge new "Super Mario" game in the works, called "Super Mario Odyssey," that's scheduled for launch this holiday. 

Between this year's Switch games, and what we found out recently about 2018's Switch line-up, it looks like Nintendo is finally delivering on its long-held promise to release a steady cadence of games from its biggest franchises. Heck, Nintendo just announced a full-on new Pokémon game for the Switch. That's an outright first for Pokémon, a series forever tied to Nintendo's handheld consoles.
