If the Switch 2 plays old switch games, im 💯 buying it.
Can't really share a switch so I've noticed that house will by multiple of them for all the kids and its still seen as the kids toy, I'm still impressed at the PS2 at over 150 million. Most of those didn't brake and it was shared to each Livingroom or TV.
They need to give it some old school vibes and call it the Super Switch! Anyways I agree about it broadening their audience considerably. It brought me back to Nintendo after not having been a fan since the SNES. I absolutely hated the N64 and everything that came after besides the GC.
Mr egg with another hot video like a punch to the b hole.
hate me, call me that guy idc… i still stand by the fact the switch was a total POS…. it was lackluster in power power wise and games looked absolutely awful with low resolutions and no anti aliasing with terrible fps performance. especially a system that came out the late 20teens. and its aged like milk ppl cant talk about how their buddies used their switch, i can counter argue i know ppl couldnt throw away their switch next to nothing that sat in the corner collecting dust.
We will see what Nintendo will do with Nintendo Switch 2.
While combining their handheld and console market into one has worked out incredibly for Nintendo, I do miss the days of small, shorter, more affordable games, as well as looking forward to having a release both on the handheld system and the console that were entirely different games.. loved that about the Wii U era!
What I would love to see is a Switch 2 with a dock that has an external GPU to boost performance. It could blur the lines between it and the PS5/XSX, and most of those companies are likely to continue to support the Switch 2 the same way they supported the Switch anyway. So, they will probably already have performance and quality modes. That's just wishful thinking on my part, though.
No external GPU in the dock for 4k upscale?
If Ninendoh had half a brain they would combine a Switch with a phone.
will they go for a 100% switch 1 backwards compat?
A 60 FPS Breath of the Wild would be sweet but no doubt Nintendo would charge 60 bucks for it.
Gen 9 is dead all about boring graphics and for that reason I may consider a switch 2 as I want a new Nintendo console again fyi I own a GameCube and a 3ds xl.
Don’t need a new gimmick. Triple the power is all I need.
I'm still waiting for the Nintendo NX.
I feel the issue regarding PS4 having as many users as PS5 users still, is down to the price of the PS5, it is still an expensive console to buy, factor in there's hardly any PS5 exclusives, so for many it's not worth upgrading to a PS5. Regarding the Series X or S, whilst on the one hand having all your old games backwards compatible is good to have, we're hardly seeing anything that is only available on this generation of Xbox consoles. Xbox messaging is also all over the place, so it's hard to believe anything they say. It does appear from an outsider looking in perspective that it's actually Microsoft that is now running the Xbox. I feel this generation whether PS5 or Series X has been poor upto press. Both consoles were marketed as being capable of hitting targets which developers are often not reaching.
I think it'll be a very strong home console. It will still use the switch medium. And your switch or switch light will work as a PlayStation portal for the home console
I think don’t believe that they won’t touch on it , in the June direct
If the Switch is gonna look like PS4/ Pro in docked mode with raytracing and ai upscaling I think the graphics and specs isn't something to complain about. I also want to see analog triggers and a better controller in handheld mode, full Led screen and some exclusive quality launch titles. They should offer 1TB M.2 and an SD card for extra space, BC, VR support like the Samsung phone. That would make anyone buy the Switch 2
I mean I am sure it does come from a "place of impatience" but… they also in the same announcement stated it's been 9 years since the announcement of the Nintendo Switch, 9 YEARS! This is an extremely long time to wait for a new console so we have a right to be impatient, everything was only exacerbated by Covid as well…
no hate but the lisp is so hard to listen to.
If it's as powerful as the Xbox OneS or the PS4 PRO, then that's a huge win for me. If this is true, the disparity between the Switch 2 and PS5 will be a lot less than it was with the Switch and Ps4. It's sometimes hard to see the difference between a great looking PS4 pro game and a ps5 game.
Why are music/movies studios so transparent and hyper promotional. But game studios soo secretive.
I bought 350$ of Nintendo stock to sell when the switch 2 releases to buy one. Hopefully it won't be much more than 400$.
Switch 2 Cardboard!
John knows the score. The Switch needs to stick with the one reliable formula in an even better hardware platform.
Does anyone know if Linneman has given his view on the Steam Deck OLED?
The only gimmick that makes sense to me – not that they'll necessarily do it – is bringing back the second screen. Theoretically it should be possible if they're using DLSS (which they should be). It's really the only think preventing them from putting DS, 3DS and Wii U games on there as-is (there are obviously ways to port them, but if they can just emulate them, that means they can put out more at once).
Nintendo always have to have a revolutionary successor in order to keep their ip fresh and less iterative. They will be upending the table and introducing a gimmick otherwise the Nintendo that used to be will be dead and gone.
The "gimmick" will be, it will have a proper vr headset for the switch 2 to go into and it'll be on par or better than a quest 3.
I read the title as switch 2 memory leak
This tells us nothing. Obviously, there will be a next console. We already knew that much.
Doesn’t need a gimmick bc we live in the age of smart phones upgrades annually. Just make it more powerful and add Switch 2 only upgrades
They didn't confirm anything, they just said "we'll talk about that subject later", bet the day comes and they just say "we don't have a next console planned"
