Nintendo has issued invitations to a private hands-on event in January for its upcoming Switch console.
The press-only event will be held on January 13, 2017 in New York following the already announced Nintendo Switch presentation on January 12. IGN has been invited and will have coverage straight from the event in January.
The invitation explains that the event is intended to "further emphasize some of the details that Nintendo plans to announce the prior evening during its Nintendo Switch Presentation in Tokyo."
No additional details about what will be shown for the Switch at the event were included in the invitation, but the January 12 presentation, which is being held in Tokyo for media, analysts, and trade partners, is set to include information about the system's release date, price, and the lineup of games currently in development for the Switch. The console is currently planned for a release sometime in March 2017.
Nintendo unveiled the Switch in October of this year via a short video teaser, highlighting the system's ability to function as both a handheld tablet and placed in a dock to be played on a TV. GameStop's CEO seemingly confirmed recently that the Switch will include motion controls, a functionality Nintendo has yet to confirm or deny.
IGN recently took a look at what games could appear on Switch after Nintendo unveiled a list of companies partnering with Nintendo to work on the Switch.
One of the Switch's confirmed games, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, will be showcased at this week's The Game Awards.
