As if ashamed by all the things it won't have at launch, Nintendo is boasting that it will in fact have the eShop up and running at launch (as it should), though it will require a system update that will be available at launch. Those who have funds on other systems can link their accounts and use that money on the Switch eShop.
Not available at launch is the Virtual Console. Information on VC games will be given "in the future." To tide you over, this year Switch will have over 60 indie games they are calling "Nindies," three of which available at launch: Fast Racing RMX, Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment, and Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove. Nintendo will have a Nindies Showcase video presentation on February 28, 2017 at 12:00pm EST (17:00 GMT).
