Who needs a Switch 2, I’ll just be playing my Switch Lite forever
Who needs a switch 2? I'll just be playing on my modded vita forever
I mean, the switch lite is the 2nd version of the switch
So we already have the switch 2
As long as they upgrade the switch to make it more powerful then who cares
Mod that sucker and you’ll have no reason to ever switch to anything else.
Exactly
Well no shit Nintendo will NEVER talk about upcoming hardware or rumors , never have never will .
While I mainly play docked, I do take it with me and play undocked pretty often. Love that its a hybrid.
If switch 2 doesn’t let me keep and play all of my digital purchases I’ll be so mad.
When the Switch came out, Nintendo literally said they were not doing backwards compatibility because this was to be a new life cycle of their systems. With that said, I feel like we will see S2 have backwards compatibility
Yeah also having backwards compatibility doesn't really help the platform much either, it didn't help the Wii U.
That was also said under a different CEO
the market changed to @@VOAN
The fact that the arrows on the TV dosent hit the top right corner of the TV perfectly is absolutely ridiculous.
The Switch 2 exists because the buttons for Super Mario RPG is mapped for it
9:03 Nintendo developers have literally said that TOTK is just the ideas they had for BOTW as DLC that didn't make the cut because of the Wii U, that's why the story is just continuing from the events of BOTW.
It's continuing a game that was already, and still is, one of the best games on the Switch/Wii U, of course it's gonna be popular.
I still have botw and barley played. Gameplay ain't for me tho but pura is.😂😂😂
I don’t remember if it was the tech foundry video, but I remember watching a switch 2 rumor video recently that mentioned your video of that “switch 2” dev kit
Matt's not wrong, TOTK disappeared after two months.
Pokémon Black and White and Black 2 and White 2 were released on the DS even though the 3ds was in the market.
Something not mentioned here but they basically verbatim said backwards compatibility in their recent report when talking about how nintendo accounts where they specifically noted about how it would allow them to maintain user information including *purchase history* across platform generations. Before when asked they were very vague about it but now they cited purchases so at least all 1st party games will likely be BC
I like the idea of them sticking with the current Switch for longer, before bringing out a new version. It's the same issue I have with GPU and mobile phone releases - they keep releasing a new model _long_ before games and software can actually utilise the full power and potential of the previous version/model, whereas if they delayed for longer not only would games and software have longer to be developed or upgraded to really use the full abilities of the GPU or phone but when they _do_ release the next version or model the difference/advancements between them will be even greater and even more worth upgrading to than they currently are.
Like take the iPhone, the previous model or even _two_ models are _barely_ different from the newest releases. Sure it might have a _slightly_ better camera which at this point is basically impossible for the regular user to tell the difference, and sure it might have a _slightly_ better battery or _slightly_ more powerful CPU ... but really the advancements have become microscopic and they release a new model _long_ before anyone really got to the point where the older model was being used to anywhere _close_ to it's _full_ potential. If they had a longer life cycle then at least the differences between iPhone models would make buying the most recent one actually _logical_ and not just a huge waste when the previous version is _just_ as good in basically every way. And it would _actually_ justify the higher prices. Nevermind the reduction in e-waste longer life cycles allow.
I've learned over the years that you can't trust what the Nintendo marketing and execs say, to the point where you can almost count on the exact opposite of what they say being true. Remember "we're going to keep supporting the 3ds" when the Switch launched? I totally get no longer supporting old hardware after a certain point, but like, just tell us that.
I still think we just need a more powerful Switch, with a wireless connection capable to the dock to play handheld and TV simultaneously add DS to Switch Online and 3DS to Expansion Pack, and have the OPTION of 2 screen gaming back. Not required like the WiiU, but as an option. And port Nintendoland
Here`s a crazy idea for the switch 2: give it a generational leap worth of extra power, make the Oled standard (or atleast give it a much better LCD screen), increase the screen size and reduce the bezels, bump up the output resolution in both docked and handheld mode (say 900p and 1440p respectively, and meybe use an additional chip in the dock that upscales the image to 4k via something like DLSS,), improve the ergonomics of the joycons (if possible), give them hall effect analogue sticks as well as analog triggers, maybe give it a propor D-pad, and change nothing else.
I really don`t think they need to reinvent the wheel, and they certainly don`t need to come up with an allnew gimmick, as long as they market the next console correctly, and price it well
I’d prefer a swappable D-Pad or 4 button thing, similar to what Xbox elite does. Nintendo is going to want to keep the easy multiplayer functionality but there should still be the option of having a D-Pad without needing to buy a third party joy-con and losing features
@@IceBlueLugia that would be cool, but I don`t see them doing it... It would probably cost too much, and would probably compomise things like portability and reliability. They might release pro joycons with a d pad though
How many videos about the Switch 2 have you made now?
I think if a switch 2 exists, it will be like new 3ds, it will have some exclusive games, but there will still be normal switch games but the new console will run then better, I think that worked pretty well on the 3DS
The New 3DS was a mid gen upgrade like the OLED Switch. The switch 2 will be an actual jump like the 3DS was to the DS
From what we know about the next Switch that sounds feasible (same principal architecture, more power) and Nintendo's games for the most part aren't very technically challenging. But third party support will definitely drop very quickly (past a certain threshold, it's very expensive to optimize for low-end hardware) and some of the more ambitious first-party games would probably be exclusive to the new hardware anyway (Tears of the Kingdom went to the limit of what Switch hardware is capable of and doing next one on the same platform would compromise the vision of the project as a whole and I don't think Nintendo would do that).
I think we will see a more traditional upgrade cycle this time. About 2 years of cross-gen support for most of the titles and full transition to next gen beyond that.
I still just want a desk only switch, I already have a lite, I want something permanently connected to the TV
not catering to just someone like you is exactly why the Switch was so damn successful in the first place. ability to portable play is why it exploded in popularity and what allowed nintendo to charge full price for games for so long despite being inferior versions. glad youre not the one running the company
Wow, came here for the Switch 2 Talk, but learned that I can build my Switch into a permanent console.
@@garrusvakarian8709 Makes since
Still play tears of the kingdom, It's incredible. I wonder how many people even played far enough to realize there is a whole underworld as big as the overworld.
I wish the switch had accessories similiar to the gameboys but made for the nintendo switch. For example, the gameboy had so many types of accessories and was playeable on newer consoles from the super nintendo up to the n64. The gameboy games can be played on the gameboy, super game boy cartridge for the super nintendo to play game boy games, supaboy handheld gaming device to play game boy games and the n64 cartridge transfer pak to play gameboy games from the n64 game controller attachment. Even though game boy was old, the game boy games were backwards compatibility with newer devices from the super nintendo, supaboy and n64 and the n64 was a 64 bit console. I miss when nintendo had so many types of accessories for there older consoles and they had so many cool and unique features. Nowadays, the newer consoles don't offer much cool features and functionalities. The era of game consoles were different and unique from each other and had the cool accessories to go along with there consoles. Most of the newer consoles offer similar features and functionalities and are not classic like the old school retro consoles. There are hardly any classic games with the modern consoles compared to the older consoles that made the consoles what they were known for. Every console is filled with micro transactions and cash grabs with bugs and the consumers are beta testers for bugs for the games.
I'm subscribed but I haven't had your videos show up in my feed for a long time
There was a rumor about the joy con's being magnetized so it fixes the drift or something
9:20 BotW just had new players buying it for 4+ years before it reached 20M sales, TotK hit 19.5M sales already, that is why it "disappeared". Also, TotK completely eclipses BotW and makes BotW feel like an unfinished version of TotK at this point. It's also easy for some to forget that TotK has a whole building mechanic that greatly changed the gameplay. It's a 10 out of 10 and was extremely polished on release. The only game that legitimately is a game of the year contender is BG3, but that game was very buggy at launch, it's also a 10, but I'd say at launch it was 9.5 because of the lack of polish.
I very much want a docked-only mode console without a screen or battery.
There's no practical reason not to include backyard compatibility. The switch is running a slightly unusual ARM based mobile chip. Nvidia has much more powerful options for Nintendo to choose from (t239 or t234) that are unusual ARM based mobile chips. Apart from updating some APIs to unlock the additional power, most content would just work unless Nintendo wanted to artificially content lock it away... Which isn't beyond them, but the audience for a new handheld would tank if there wasn't a way to play the huge library of games.
I think what Nintendo is saying here is that at least for a while first party games will run on the older hardware... Albeit at lower resolutions and missing other bells and whistles
What about a real dockstation. I mean, if you want to play in your TV, you need more power, at least 1080P 144FPS, and if your handheld can't brings you, then a dockingstation can.
But... maybe is a wet dream.
I'm about to Purchase my first Switch this holiday season
Maybe they can create a nintendo gamecube 2 that plays nintendo games in 4k.
When are you going to discuss the trademarks filed by MS for XBOX XS?
I use motion control in Splatoon all the time, in Japan is huge use in Splatoon
I think the switch was not backwards compatible because of their choice to make cartridges instead of discs and if they wanted these games on switch because of their decisions they would have to make completly new versions anyway and thats why they did it the way they did
exactly, wii u was backwards compatible with wii since it was the same format
ummm I know folks still playing totk even myself included and I've clocked in over 500 hours so far. why would anyone play breath when theres just so much more to do in tears.
If they just keep bringing out stellar games like ToTK Ill be happy. GB, NDS, 3DS all were underpowered systems and their games were fun as hell and outsold all their competition.
I honestly believe Backwards compatibility won't be an issue i know Nintendo makes some Questionable choices but the success of the switch should show them the current form is working and they need hardware upgraded across the board
But how are they supposed to sell you Mario Kart 8 for the 5th time if they make it backwards compatible?! They'd have to make a new one and that could take weeks!
Their highest revenue game is basically a port of Mario Kart 8. A few other ports also did pretty well. I get Wii-U was a huge flop and many players didn't get the chance to play them, but still I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo tried re-releasing at full price a lot of their current games.
They could literally just charge you to upgrade your switch 1 copy to the switch 2 copy and still make boatloads of money. I can’t see them ditching BC
@txcforever Sony does it so I'm sure Nintendo will too. It's basically free money. I'm all for releasing remasters and remakes for older games, I loved the new Dead Space and Resident Evil remakes, but releasing Last of Us 3 times, Mario Kart 3 times, or just porting games like Red Dead is fucked up. Yet people just keep buying them over and over and over. There's a lot of suckers out there and these gaming companies are more than happy to milk them for all they can. Last of Us pt1 should have been a PS+ title, Mario Kart 8 should have been on Nintendo's service and had a sequel by now, Red Dead should have been a remake, at minimum a high end remaster or ported and bundled in to a Red Dead 2 remaster. Instead, the companies mark them at $50-$70 knowing that a lot of players will eat it up.
@@khightofjustice2828 Maybe, but that just doesn't justify charging you full price for the same game you already bought.
Where's the boss coffee? My brain can't handle it, please... No... They are still around right? I'm worried now.
Nintendo's MO has been to at the very least attempt to change or somehow "revolutionize" control styles and input methods with each new console, for better or worse, in addition to upping the internal specs, however incrementally in some cases.
* NES, while two (or four if you count start and select) action buttons and a d-pad was getting more common back then, had some of the highest quality digital input of its time inside a very durable package ("Nintendium" some would call that kind of ABS plastic, same stuff as the Game Boy).
* SNES had six (or eight) action buttons plus d-pad in a very comfortable-to-grip but still very durable package.
* N64 introduced the native analog stick and tried to make the three-prong approach work.
* GameCube had one of the earliest first-party dual analog stick controller setups (though Sony beat them to market by at least a year), but also had genuine analog triggers (which Dreamcast also had, but only one analog stick) even though not many games took advantage of them.
* Wii came bundled by default with the combo Bluetooth+infrared motion controller Wiimote instead of relegating it to an optional accessory _and_ still supported using GameCube controllers in many games, as well as adding USB-like support for plugging in other controllers and accessories to the Wiimote like the Nunchuck or specialty pads.
* Wii U offered a touchpad that basically looked like a Switch Lite prototype and could also function as an additional screen for games _and_ still let you use Wiimote and Wiimote accessories.
* Switch was arguably the first truly successful implementation of a hybrid console-handheld device, both being dockable and having detachable JoyCon. The JoyCon are basically refined dual Wiimotes each with an analog stick rather than having to rely on external Nunchucks, but the key feature is that they're detachable from the system and that the Switch can be run as a handheld device if they're attached. That's not even counting the fact that the Switch's built-in screen is technically a capacitive touchscreen, though that becomes not nearly as useful as it could be when it's docked.
(I didn't even list the strictly handheld set of Nintendo offerings in the above list, and I intentionally left out the Virtual Boy because Virtual Boy.)
The Switch spec-wise was basically a modified NVidia Shield. Even if the "Switch 2" or whatever it ultimately ends up being named is just a bump in spec, Nintendo is almost guaranteed to try to add value via input controls. It likely depends on who Nintendo actually considers as their competition which will probably determine what form this would take. People keep saying Steam Deck (and eventually similar handheld PC lines like ROG Ally and Legion Go) is the competition, but Nintendo has historically been competing with Sony more than any other gaming company not named Sega so my money is on continuing competition with Sony.
And they'll probably wet the bed over that, too. This wouldn't be the 1st time they really messed up doing that. Not to mention 90% of their 1st party games really suck. I won't bother with anymore nintedo systems now that I have options with mobile handhelds.
@@jonesymeow9487 I don't quite understand what you mean by "not the first time they messed up doing that." By "that" do you mean the "slight spec bump" like with Wii U or do you mean misunderstanding who the real competition is like with the GameCube generation (which was overwhelmingly won by the PS2) where they thought Sega Dreamcast was still a thing?
Companies can’t lie or mislead investors. If they do, they face regulatory penalties and big lawsuits. Trust statements in an earnings call much more than journalists.
They also need to combat over hype.
The switch oled is the the switch pro it was supposed to have a more powerful apu but because of covid and the supply chain issues they couldn’t get what they wanted and needed for it all they could get is the oled and the chip thats in the dock. At least thats what i seen on a UA-cam video. I do believe the oled is the switch pro.
Switch really could have done with that proper upgrade.
Someone wanna explain that browsers squashing mario joke
I'm never docked and my son plays his switch docked and undocked.
What if the switch 2 is just a dock with a stronger internal gpu that you slot your current switch into.
tbh that would be really nice lol
@@berdanbalat444No that sounds like shit. It means handheld mode would still be locked to switch 1 specs and devs would have to make 2 separate versions of their games
@@IceBlueLugiaDevs would have to make 2 seperate versions of the game. That makes zero sense. We literally already do this with extenal gpu's... Its just a matter of going from low settings to high settings. So in docked mode, it would just automatically switch over to high settings.
@@coldsnap4467 Yeah that’s not how it works lol. Games are developed for the lowest common denominator then scaled up from there in such a scenario. There’s a reason people say the Series S is holding back gaming. Games don’t take full advantage of the hardware through the method you’re talking about. PC games have minimum specs too, and games can’t run the way they’re intended if they’re scaled down too far. Increasing specs works by adding extra resolution and frames rate, as well as things like shadows and better lighting; aka things that don’t require a game to be designed around those high power requirements. A game properly built for the PS4 game can’t run on a PS3 through simple downscaling. And this is a pretty apt comparison considering Switch is slightly stronger than a PS3 and Switch 2 is rumored to about PS4 level.
If your method worked, games released in 2023 would still run on 2013 computers. They don’t.
Not ideal for an external GPU to be coupled with only 3 active cores on the Switch APU.
or not being bound to a life cycle could be interpted to mean that they don't feel the need to release a switch 2 just because the switch is getting older
So thats what happened to Malcom in the Middle..
Matt's not wrong about ToTK.
9:04 as a die hard nintendo games fan i hate the fact that i agree so much
@austinevans have you been to CKs?
I do not want a non portable version of the Switch. One of my favorite things about the original Switch is that it could be handheld and then you could dock onto the TV and out of the box it came with a controller that you could deattach and use with the TV. I don't want to have to buy a seperate controller to be able to play on the TV. The Switch is a Switch and the Switch Lite make sense beut a TV only Switch doesn't seem like Nintendo at all.
I like to point out if they made the switch to have a dual screen, that would make it easy for it to support 3DS games or DS games as well as Wii U games.
Just saiyan
but it would also cost 3rd party dev to tweak their games just to utilize the extra screen. more so, games already released in current switch will require extra patch to port.
@@wylerXL Why? And most likely would be only there for backwards compatibility.
Not to mention I don't think it would cost very much extra, sing how a lot of companies didn't have a problem doing it with the Wii U or the DS.
@@Shendowx you dont want the secondary screen to just be black empty. Porting Wii U and 3DS games may have no problem. But majority of games (that get released across all platforms) only have one screen in mind. Most devs are lazy to tweak their games thats why Wii U gets the least support during its generation.
@@wylerXL really depends on how they use the second screen, maybe the system while in dock mode doesn't use the second screen.
While in handheld mode it can and maybe use it just for features for the systems OS only.
@@wylerXLThe Wii U is a poor example because over half the library just had the Gamepad display the exact same thing as the TV. Tropical Freeze and BotW were first party games and actually didn’t even do that, the Gamepad was just blank and you could tap it to switch the display to the gamepad. Third party ports could’ve easily done the same. Wii U was just underpowered, that’s why the ports never came. 3DS meanwhile, yeah every game needed to use the second screen. Though honestly, people are really overblowing this issue, it’s really easy to just move the HUD and pause menu to the bottom screen
Haha 14:20
Matt: "Now you have things like the Legion Go that supports external gpu's."
Austin: "But nobody does it."
Me: "I do!"😂
I use a RTX 3080 with my Legion Go when docked to my tv.
I honestly think more people would do this if it was something more people knew about. Because the Z1 Extreme uses AMD drivers, Nvidia gpu's work best since the drivers can coexist on the Legion Go making swapping between docked to the egpu and handheld without the egpu not terrible. Of coarse it's not as simple as swapping between docked and handheld with a Nintendo Switch, but it does work well once everything is setup!
I don't think they'll make a sequel to the switch after how the Wii U did, but I think they will stick to a hybrid console.
That is how they'll mess this all up. The wii u was terrible marketing, too. If nintendo was smart, they'd just relieve a more powerful switch. But since they love to needlessly change tgings up I see they dropping the ball majorly. Plus their 1st party games are mostly trash. With others making powerful handhelds I won't bother with nintendo again.
Was going to wait for switch 2. But will try to pick up a steam deck oled instead today. Realised I'm just not that into Mario games like I used to be and Nintendo tends to come out with pretty woeful hardware compared to the competition to the point its been irrelevant hardware for a while for being able to support 3rd party titles. Im not huge on graohics, but I just don't trust Nintendo to make a system that can meangifully run the titles I want to play through its lifespan
they would go for Switch 2 OLED then newer revision Mini LED
Can't wait for the Switch U
Anyone notice the Russian Badger reference at 8:29 xD
The Switch2 Rumors are crazy...
Ima just SWITCH to my modded PSP, PS Vita and new 3DS XL.
I genuinely expect the next nintendo console to be completely different than the switch. There is no way they are gonna take the risk of making something really similar after what happened with the Wii U
Switch worked very well for them though. Plus consolidating 2 console lineups into one makes life a lot easier for them. Would they risk f**ing it up? Besides, Switch was basically a Wii U done right, it was a continuation of an idea rather than a pivot.
Now I wouldn't put past Nintendo to do something weird just for the sake of it (VR maybe... that's kind of a logical continuation of what they did with the Wii plus the tech is finally there to support this vision) but with how successful Switch is and how easy it is to iterate on that I just don't why would they.
They might definitely try to slap a second screen on it though... they might even make it actually work.
Remember guys, the DS and Wii also won't replace the GBA and GameCube.
Oh wait they did...?
Austin saying valve should of called the steam deck oled the steam deck 2 when it has the same apu and plays games exactly the same then I would say the switch 2 is already out it's called the switch oled.
That heavy set guy is wrong about TotK, i have 330 hours in it, i patrol Hyrule regularly. That guy needs to survey before stating an opinion as fact. Just because no one talks about it anymore doesn't mean noone plays it. I have talked to maybe one person about it, if you're gonna try to fire on Totk again, come correct next time.
wots that white marks on mats t shirt lol
Switch 2 console box, can remote play with your switch if you want mobile
It will be called the Switch-Hitter and have three joycons. You can guess where you shove that third one.
The switch 2 is out and has been out. It's called the OLED switch. Yall need to talk about a switch 3.
I think they will never make a new console. Switch will exist forever…..BUT….it will just keep getting new versions. At least with this new console, I think it’s a pro. Why make a new system when the current is selling better than anything? Instead, bump up the gps and cpu and ram just enough and still call it switch.
if the next nintendo console goes back to LCD im not buying. going away from OLED is a HUGE downgrade. my ps5, pc, and switch will hold me over for a long time. also, backwards compatibility with Switch carts is a MUST. otherwise i’m really not gonna get for a few years
Nintendo wants to maximize profits on the Switch OLED this holiday season. Of course they are going to deny the Switch 2 release. ReviewTech Rich explained it well.
it's like when the switch was released and they never properly said "the wii u is dead". they wanna keep collecting the benefits of the going generation until it's no longer possible.
Matt nudging at the fact that Nintendo is remaking games and junk is tru but literally everyone else is doing it too lmao, resident evil 4 remake, dead space remake, crash bandicoot remake I believe, Spyro remake, uhh what else has been remade? Or remastered. Hm… spider man remaster for ps5 so not a remake but definitely not really needed. Last of us remake for like the third time. There was also: Mafia remake, the gta “remasters” ark survival ascended which is just ark 1 I think but on the new engine that ark 2 will be on, so they announced ark 2 awhile ago but don’t even have that out yet lmao. So all in all, all these companies are taking advantage of making remakes😂
Imo I think the reason why we still do not get switch 2 is that OG switch have overstayed and porting a game both for switch 1 and 2 would take them much more resource than they would like. Switch is too underpowered by 2023 gaming standard. Like how Cyberpunk run worse in PS4 than PS5. Plus with how popular some of Nintendo IP (Pokemon, Zelda, Mario), Unless we hit the hardware limitations for these games, we would probably not get a new switch
They are going to release a Dual-Switch.
Am I the only one that almost never plays handheld and only docked? LOL
If the switch 2 not a 4k and better graphics then to me it's just another remake of the switch cus u got switch light pro and oled and thay same but lite joy con done remove but pro and oled it's all the same literly no difrent a inch bigger screen and tiny bit more storage but same HD and graphics nothing new
The entire reason Nintendo is denying Switch 2 is they don't want to hurt holiday Switch sales. The best way to resolve that issue is to RELEASE NEW HARDWARE DURING HOLIDAY TIME. Nintendo likes dropping hardware a few months after holiday which is kind of fucked up. Some parent or grandparent buys Switch stuff for Christmas and then 3 months later Nintendo releases new hardware, making what those people just bought obsolete way sooner than they expected. There's no reason not to release new hardware between September-December. I don't like Nintendo, but the people that do are going to buy it and it's going to sell like crazy even with increased competition during holiday time. It's like Nintendo just like to be weird.
i think it will be called Switch U or New Switch or Super Switch. number suffix isn't Nintendo's forte.
Bought Switch Oled, played Odyssey and that was great. Tried a ton of games after that but it's not for me anymore, even sold the device recently because my nostalgia really remembers these franchises to be a lot more fun and condensed, replayable and addictive.
Maybe i'm done gaming lol, but Zelda 1.5 and the lack of decent rpg's or shooters, or oldscool sidescroll action games like megaman or duke nukem really convinced me to go back to pc and ps5, i'll emulate the new metroid when it releases and be on the lookout for other titles but i don"t have high hopes
I don't touch nintendo 1st party games over them being way too easy, and don't hold my attention. I only got the switch to play 3rd party games mobile. But with other (better) handhelds on the market I won't be bothering with the next Switch. Nintendo sucks.
Still waiting for mario kart 9 since the Wii U….
100% switch 2 production is behind schedule and they’re covering holiday season tail by saying “oh don’t worry, we’re won’t forget about you”. All while selling a nearly decade old device
Entitled cry baby 😂
hi kinsey 👋
what if the Nintendo switch is the last Nintendo console
nintendo is gonna go back to the 2 console eco system and have home console and dual screen switch
"If you look back across Nintendo's history, more Nintendo consoles than not have had backwards compatibility." Both the DS and the Wii had their backwards compatibility dropped in later versions while the consoles were still being developed for, so they shouldn't count.
Not really, the ds lite and dsi had gameboy support
@@oo--7714 Really? I remember my cousin complaining that his new DS didn't play his old games anymore.
Why is everyone calling it the Switch 2 anyway? Who knows what it's going to be?
Im gonna play Mr run and jump on my new atari 2600 plus, who needs a switch 2
Here comes the Steam Deck 2
Watch them add a dpad and call it a day
I looked it up, Sony sold 158 million PS2s since 2000. Nintendo has sold 132 million Switches since 2017.
Nintendo may actually match, if not surpass PS2 in console sales in under half the time period.
With that being said, would Nintendo want to end the streak now? We're already seeing the typical mid-cycle refresh with Sony and presumably xbox in the next 2 years. I think Nintendo is gonna wait closer to the end of this gaming generation and possibly release a new Switch or something better next gen purely to stay relevant. The next Switch or whatever they'll release is not gonna play Mario or Zelda any better than what we have now. Nintendo is playing in a different field than everyone else where they are more concerned about their own "ecosystem" than matching what everyone else is doing.
I believe we're not gonna get a console refresh from Nintendo for at least until the start of next gen, whenever that may be. Though it would be awesome to release a console as powerful as the Switch but as small as my DSi. 15 years later and that thing is still going strong and is the only console I can say is actually pocketable.
From every thing I read and can find on this I believe Nintendo going away at least for now from all this 1 version 2 version. I think they looking it as Switch is the brand and there will be new or revisions of that brand but all version of it are the same games under one umbrella idea of switch games. EX. Think of nintendo as a brand ( type)of console. you have NES, super NES, NES 64. now instead of changing out different games ever version its fall under just one type that fits in all switches.
Have no clue, I love Nintendo but they play to a different drum and it always seems to work out. Time will tell.
Matt is very cool!!
As a BOTW glazer, I 100% agree-couldn’t even bring myself to finish TOTK
Nintendo switch 2 M3 Max chip? 😏😏
Switch with vr capabilities
Simply put. . Where there is smoke there is fire".... or way too many people saying something similar for it not to be somewhat true
The answer is easy…release next console and drop switch lite to $99 and reg switch to 149 and oled switch to 199.
If you compare it to apple’s iPad, even their old design is way way far ahead of the base switch.
What if the egpu just did upscaling and the devs did not need to design forbit separately?
Matt harping for the Switch to turn into an ROG Ally is so goofy. It’s like begging for a Toyota Camry to have the same 0 to 60 as a Porsche 911. No an external GPU does not make sense, the ecosystem would fall apart from games only being available to those who can afford the upgrade. That means the only option is an external GPU would just provide useless performance boosts on default optimized games.
You don’t have to like Nintendo but don’t be ignorant about their business objectives and target market.
Nintendo will milk the Switch Until 2040.
