Nintendo has revealed its newest gaming console: the Nintendo Switch

Want to stay in and play, or grab and go? The biggest thing about the Nintendo switch is that it’s both stationary and portable.

The company pulled off the curtain this week on the highly anticipated console -- and Switch has taken a number from Transformers.

The console is converted from a home system to one you can take on the road just by lifting it out of the dock, according to Nintendo.

The company says detachable "Joy-Con" controllers give users a variety of playing options. One player can use both, or two players can take each one to battle.

Nintendo also notes that multiple systems can be even be linked together. The company says Switch is pushing forward the concept of "gaming without boundaries."

As far as the price and list of full game titles -- that will be announced closer to the expected March launch.
