@Justin-cn9hq Yeah, but legion go stole the clip-in controller from Switch... 🤔 Plus nintendo have already had a dabble with mouse controllers in the past... ie the post I started with ^^
The one thing the missed the mark on was to have their iconic D-Pad instead of the buttons. But other than that love the Switch 2. Can't wait to see what other color variants they do as well.
This was more of a confirmation announcement by Nintendo just confirming all the rumours we have been seeing. God damn you Americans and the way you format dates though. 4/2 (4th of February) sounds a whole lot better then 2nd of April :P
I think the reason for the time gap between the form reveal and the system direct has a large part to do with all the leaks over the past month+, especially the Genki CES showcase. I think Nintendo always planned for the April direct, but maybe wanted to wait til March to reveal the form design. But with Genki showing up with a 3D-printed model @ CES (and then Walmart), it forced their hand to reveal earlier than they wanted
I like how they showed it. Even the title changed after some time. But the tease was there, didn't think they do it like this. Was expecting a preposted video setting thr time when they show it.
That Mario kart game showed has to be a switch 1 game based on how small the game is displayed on the screen when they showed it. I hope that isn’t the case for all back compat games.
Someone reminded me that with Stellar Blade coming to PC, thus no longer a exclusive title, Switch 2 is already has at least the same amount of exclusives as PS5 had for its first 4 YEARS of its life span. RIP people who bought PS5 on scalper prices.
I worked really hard to make it to this point. The name fits well for what it is, a switch 2, it's just a hyped up step bump in power / size. I just wish it had analog triggers for racing games. Why just a button for triggers?
How is this better than any other one on the market? The games look exactly the same. Are you sure this will sell the same as the first one? I am not seeing that. Nintendo fans will buy it of course, but beyond that who will buy this? There are so many better choices now and in the future that will play the game libraries I already own. Why do I need this?
There will be a mouse adapter to make it form fitting to your hand. *** Also, this is really what we've been asking for a for a few years. Just keep the functionality the same and give us more power so we can have current titles brought over. I'm excited.
Maybe I'm in the minority, but this is why I despise leaks and leakers such as Nate the Hate, Pyoro, etc.; they completely take some of the excitement out of reveals and announcements.
They started mass manufacturing in China MONTHS ago, this is literally always going to be the way with consumer electronics. Nintendo must have been hitting the crackpipe thinking they’d be immune to issues that even Apple can’t avoid. I’d much rather get the surprise from Nintendo themselves, but if they wanted to avoid leaks they should have dropped this reveal at the same time they started mass manufacturing the device, if not earlier. It’s not like this reveal showed anything of substance anyway, they could have dropped it back in September with a 2025 release date mentioned at the end.
I'll hold out for the OLED model. I'm not really a Nintendo fan, but would like to see the latest Metroid in OLED. The switch 1 feels like a toy that will break moments after being touched by me. Hopefully the switch 2 is higher quality.
Man, waiting 3 months for a full reveal all but guarantees way more leaks will happen. Also, I miss when Nintendo consoles came in multiple colors... N64 with the Atomic Green/Purple/Orange/etc., GC launching with Black/Purple/Orange (Japan) & later Silver, but now we only get different color joycons or Switch Lite colors.
Maybe, and hopefully, the “not every game will be compatible” is about all that shovelware and cash grab knock-off games being delisted on the new Switch storefront?!
Well I'll take my L's here ive got several today with the Switch 2 reveal starting with the Name I said Nintendo would never use a number in the name of a product and I also got the release date wrong I thought it would be the day of the Direct April 2nd 2025 and I said the size would be slightly bigger because of Nintendo using a modern bezelless screen design but was wrong there too it's way bigger with huge 1/2 in black bezels all the way around looks pretty good though all around still terrible ergonomics but I'm not a handheld guy anyway
Technology hardware these days have all gone the way of phones n pcs. Minimal changes while upgrading the specs..... and charge you $500 - 1000 for the latest n greatest 🤷🏾♂️
Blasphemous? So to you snes = nin64 = GameCube= wii = wii u = switch? They didn't successively reinvent themselves each console? Or are you just pretending to not have eyes?
The Switch is only just catching up to what the Lenovo Legion Go has been doing for years. And Lenovo is about to launch the Lenovo Legion Go 2 which stomps on the Switch 2 hardware.
THIS WILL BE COMICAL!!! Now watch, after all the years, all the waiting...it will only get 1080p ''upscaled'' games. And still will not even GET most triple A games since they refuse to ditch the cartridge and design a REAL console. Since most triple A game now are near 100GB. However, they could port them by making the Switch 2 render in 2p, then upscale it to 144p to bring the file size down to the level of their pathetic 32GB swallowable things they call cartridges. OR...have all the triple A games on cloud, giving it that retro feel, reminding players how weak 3 GENS BEHIND actual is.
The mouse functionality has got me excited for a new Mario Paint!!
Who's with me??
With an updated fly swatting game 😂
@jimbojanglez1515 absolutely..
Get me on that music maker
They stole the idea from the Lenovo Legion Go
@Justin-cn9hq
Yeah, but legion go stole the clip-in controller from Switch... 🤔

I played the heck out of that as a kid
My wife just wants the new Animal Crossing & she'll disappear from existence for a loooong time.
Not bad... but the leaks are definitely taking the mystery outta these announcements.
I ignored every single leak video and thread, so I'm pleasantly surprised by the general improvements made to enhance it's usability.
If you ignored them how do you know they exist.
@@TravisTheSavage I don't know what the leaks were, all I know is that people were posting that they had leaked info.
The one thing the missed the mark on was to have their iconic D-Pad instead of the buttons. But other than that love the Switch 2. Can't wait to see what other color variants they do as well.
Nintendo confirmed Genki's new hardware. I'm impressed it's just like they said
there are actually 24 players not 15 you can tell by the number of lanes at the start line
Seems like you're correct xD
Mouse = FPS .... no no no
Mouse = RTS. ... and turn based strategy.
This was more of a confirmation announcement by Nintendo just confirming all the rumours we have been seeing. God damn you Americans and the way you format dates though. 4/2 (4th of February) sounds a whole lot better then 2nd of April :P
Honestly, UA-camr Zone of Tech had the full reveal on Tuesday night. His video showed the entire trailer.
SuperSwitch is about as good a name as WiiU
Glad they went with Switch2
thanks god no more “leaks” headlines
Don't hold your breath on that one. The fact they're waiting 3 months for a full reveal ensures there will be tons more leaked leading up to that.
Just wait until Jeff Grubb hears someone fart in the wind. He’ll be quick to report it as a Wind Waker + Twilight Princess remaster leak.
If it is a new 3D donkey Kong game I hope they bring back the song DK donkey Kong
For a second I thought it was a troll but this was posted on Nintendo News

The announcement said there would only be partial backwards compatibility. That worries me.
I really hope that was just really early game footage because I was super underwhelmed. Looked EXACTLY like current switch gameplay.
Playing war zone is going to be crazy on this thing

The 3rd one can be named Super Switch.😮
Battery life,maginic rail does it effect memory cards.

Thats actually a really good idea about the form fitting mouse adapter. I didn't think of that 🤔
Yay the switch pro is here
That might be mario Kart 9 because I don't recognize that track.

Thats fair. I think you're correct. Its difficult for modern companies to keep their stuff secret unfortunately
Did someone hold you down and force you to watch videos? No? Then it's on you.

Mario Kart Horizon for the switch 2

the switch 2 will be $450
That kickstand looks flimsy.
Finally Nate got something right
Something else you mean. He was already right about hi-fi rush
Nintendo is late to their own party. But 3 extra mario kart characters on the track?! System seller right there.

Exactly what Xbox should have done with Xbox one. Just add more power to the 360 and call it 360-2

Too early to say this but it's obvious. Switch 2 lite won't be compatible with whatever games are going to use that censors
For me personally it too little to late. Still I am going to buy it for my wife and children, but I’ll stick to the Rog Ally line.
I like it I want to buy it

Is it mire powerful than a Series X or an S?

And with that I’m done with Xbox, and I won’t be missing anything because every Xbox game is going to every other platform anyway.

Essentially a Switch Pro? How disappointing of Nintendo...
Straight up yawn worthy....
So happy all my games are back compatible! 🎉
not all games are

looks mid tbf. No chance of buying it
Port gta 5
