Backward compatibility is 100% happening
I doubt it! :D
they've done it before , a fair amount of times successfully already
Sounds like it, yes.
@@developement They did it with 3ds and DS
They did it with the DS and GBA
They did it with Wii U and Wii
They did it with Wii and Gamecube
They did it with GBA and GBC/GB
Pretty much every console had it unless it was a big generation shift like the Switch and the WII U (which had all the big titles ported anyways) or the Gamecube and N64.
Probably 99%
Got more information about the Switch 2 in just one video than in at least 12 of them. Great content OJ!
This about to be Nintendo’s best console. Almost Series S raw power before DLSS is crazy. Opens for the door for all the current gen games for sure.
more ram than the series s too which is a big pain point for Devs designing around the series S
I can’t wait for the next Xenoblade game on Switch 2!!! Luckily we’ve got Metaphor ReFantazio until then
Finally, someone who pronounces Nintendo's president's name correctly as Furukawa, not 'Furu Kara'!
It’s kilumba
RGT85 left the chat
I would agree with you if he mispronounce fiscal
@@loonieDMighty 😂😂😂😂
Amen
You are right OJ, if it’s fully backwards compatible , i will buy older switch games to play on a more powerful device.
Breath and tears will sell millions more
I would totally be down for the switch 2handheld performance being above PS4. I mainly play the switch portably so the idea of the switch 2 handheld performance being above a PS4 gets me very excited. Just imagine what Monolith Soft could do with that thing. The third party support is going to be extremely exciting for me, give me all the JRPGs
The main thing i want is that physical backwards compatibility since almost all my games on switch are physical!
Will see
Backwards compatibility is good for Switch 2 sales. I believe every Switch user has a decent backlog, so everyone gonna buy a better version of Switch if transferring your backlog is available.
bro i have a bookshelf full of switch games that i haven't gotten to play yet!!!
I’ve honestly have never had as big of a collection of games as I have on the switch backwards compatibility would definitely be enticing and a huge plus for many people
@Brandon-ce2zb For me if backwards compatibility is real is day one buy.
@@acegio1979 definitely
As someone who loves physical media and has a rather low data cap due to where I live you can imagine my sigh of relief that Nintendo is gonna keep going with physical media even with the Switch 2. Like seriously...my ISP has NOTHING out my way yet for higher speed and higher cap stuff and the ONLY reason I have internet at all is because I had DSL back when that was the new thing and got grandfathered in when they stopped offering that as a service. Since I already had the service they have to keep it active for me until they actually can upgrade me to Fiber or something like that. Physical media for gaming is how I can even PLAY some games on my PS4 (still haven't got a PS5 yet, saving money for it now), the size of the games is often a good third to half my data cap some times...150gb cap before extra fees and AAA games START at 40-50gb before day one patches...
@@audie-cashstack-uk4881 no, this is a more rural southern area. And Cable internet is prohibitively expensive for me due to the limit of how far they will run the line and the fact I'd need to pay out of pocket $2000+ to get a new pole in my yard they can run it to...so cable is out, sat is dodgey imo since I prefer a physical line for the sake of the amount of trees and storms that can ruin a connection that isn't physical, and my ISP has been slow to get stuff for my area...the area AROUND where I live, has fiber but the more rural less high traffic area where I live ain't a priority of getting the faster stuff out my way.
there is no way imma download a game that is large as 80gb.. i wouldnt have room on my SD card. i prefer the bulk of my games on a cart.
@@badboy-gn8fu I got two external HDD for my PS4 at 2TB each...both are almost completely full...so yeah when I finally get a PS5 memory upgrade is gonna be a thing that needs to happen quick, fast, and in a hurry so I can play DB Sparking Zero and other games and have room.
Everytime I hear about the microphone and camera thing, I was thinking: how cool would it be if they made it so you could stream and record your gameplay straight from the switch and directly upload it or stream to UA-cam or twitch
I think that would be huge for so many people who've always wanted to try it out and can or already established content creators
New Nintendo console launch = more great content from Oj.
With it being backwards compatible, I'm really interested to see if the Switch 2 will automatically make Switch games run better or maybe get performance patches manually put out there. There's some games like Astral Chain and Bayonetta 3 that I'd be much more excited to play with better performance
Should we call it a rumor when the information comes from official documentation? And the data is publicly available
Thank you OJ. Waiting really for NS2
Solid video.
Great stuff as of late OJ, been meaning to say. 👍
Great video as always OJ.
Great show! I really appreciate you keeping it simple. Perfect how you separated official from rumored information. Lot of other casters could take a cue. Great job bro!
Lots of things happening this week. Great coverage, OJ!
My question for you OJ. What is the switch 2 retail price in retail stores going to be? A more powerful gaming console means a more expensive gaming console. Sounds expensive to me. But I am not worried about it. I'm looking forward to the switch 2 console.
Nintendo usually picks a gimmick over raw power so glad to see that the next generation switch is closer to an actual console than a game boy
The manufacturing details are interesting for sure.
I live not that far from Nintendo of America HQ and their Warehouse and have been looking at their jobs and they definitely are staffing up recently.
I honestly wish for achievements like PS and Xbox have.
I wanna see Ultra Wide Screen support in dock mode and Astral Chains 2 on the Switch II
I'm looking forward for the name and what it is going to look like thanks for the content OJ peace out
The Switch 2 announcement will be HYPE when it drops! Thanks OJ for your efforts on updating us 👍🏻
I am tampering my expectations a little bit am looking forward to the new Switch
OJ great video as always and thanks for providing some of the best codeo game content that I truly enjoy! Also love the hat !!! Bulls nation!!
Shout-out to the NX, super metal Dave days on here, good times😂
I'm very much looking forward to the next Switch. For the launch window... I'd love versions of Tekken 8, a revival of Ridge Racer (30th anniversary)...so a big Namco push. Pleeeease! It's a day one pick up for me, regardless.
Does this mean that games could get 60 fps patches likes Pokémon or Zelda?
it doesnt make sense to not stick with the handheld/console formula. changing back to a dedicated console would also mean Nintendo would have to make a dedicated handheld which would cost more to invest and dividing resources which isnt smart imo.
I could see two devices that play the same games, but other than that? Why even consolidate both divisions for only one gen?
I wish Furukawa would let NOA know about their commitment for physical games. NOA still hasn't released Famicom Detective Club physically (it was in Japan in a limited edition, but never in America)
That's apples and oranges.
I want AI upscaling for 4k graphics when docked 🌟
I can't wait to see the new Switch.
This is going to be an extremely power efficient and highly performant machine. The only thing holding the Switch 2 back will be CPU which will be less performant than Steam Decks cpu. With Nintendos software OS overhead being extremely light and beefy GPU with DLSS and fast ram and I/O, should be able to narrow the gap some. It will still struggle to run more CPU intensive open world games like GTA V, Starfield and Alan Wake 2 but I believe they can use the DLSS to get it to run good enough to play it comfortably which will be much better than what a PS4 and Xbox Series S can do today. As a PC and 3070 owner, DLSS is a game changer and will definitely benefit the Switch 2 tremendously in visuals and performance of games that specifically are built from the ground up using the NVIDIA tech in the Switch 2. People are going to be wowed when they see games running on Switch 2 looking better than native games running on Series S and PS4 Pro
DLSS won't make cpu intensive games run better, if anything it will run worse.🤦♂️ Games running at a higher resolution take stress off the CPU (native 1440p and up) and allocate it to the GPU. DLSS drops the resolution meaning the CPU will still be using the same amount of resources with DLSS on
@@kiba488 it’s a custom solution so I’m sure NVIDIA and Nintendo designed as such where that bottle neck wont be an issue vs a common CPU/GPU pc configuration. From a general CPU standpoint, raw performance of the cpu being ARM will still be weaker than any CPU in an APU form factor compared to its X86 competitors from AMD and Intel. I’m pretty positive though that the NVIDIA GPU will perform better at similar resolutions than my ROG Ally’s RDNA3 based GPU in the Z1 Extreme and Definitely better than the GPU in the Steam Deck RDNA2 based GPU. NVIDIA just has better performance overall when it comes to their software and hw stack. That is one of the main reasons why I switched from a 5700XT to a 3070 in 2021. The features that NVIDIA has along with their drivers just allows games I play to just run better and look better in like for like scenarios.
In OJ we trust. Great way to keep hype responsibly 😂 Physical backward compatibility is one of my top most wanted features and can’t wait till Ninty shares more, specs look on point.
I hope xenoblade runs better on handheld mode on the new switch.
Hybrid is the perfect formula for any gamer why would the move away from that, no of course they won’t! I hope.
I am most looking forward to..... NEW GAMES! :)
Whatever Nintendo’s next first party game is I hope it’s good quality because lately it hasn’t been too much :/ I’m talking about endless ocean and princess peach.
I just want my Zelda Wii U tech demo-looking Zelda already😭
It's so boring looking, though.
How are these new rumors any different from the rumors last year?
This is all great news! I’m glad to hear/see it! I got unsubbed for some reason but I subscribed again. 👍🏽
18:51 DLSS Does not run the game at a lower resolution It renders the game at a lower resolution. If DLSS is accelerating the game at 4K the game needs to run at 4K.
I'm going to assume he just means games that were designed to run at sub 4k native resolutions. DLSS could help the image quality be better even without 4K assets.
@@miscsloan8834 That is exactly what I thought he meant and it is wrong. DLSS does not raise resolution or improve the image quality.
Instead is reduces rendering cost to render frames faster. The resources required do not change and the resolution of the game does not change. You can actually increase the requirements as you are removing optimisations from textures.
From the DLSS Programming guide 3.7.0 page 13
"When DLSS is active, the rendering engine must set the mip-map bias (sometimes called the texture LOD bias) to a value lower than 0. This improves overall image quality as textures are sampled at the display resolution rather than the lower render resolution in use with DLSS."
@@headlesschickenfarmBy improving image quality I simply mean better upscaling for games that aren't designed for 4K resolutions. The performance boost from dlss allows for the possibility for other image enhancement techniques to be implemented that would otherwise be detrimental to performance.
All i want for Switch 2 is too succeed and won’t repeat the Wii U that’s all i want and better hardware.
Please have a name that doesnt confuse the average consumer like Wii U did. Switch 2 is a good enough distinction as is, but we all know it probably wont be called that.
Glad to hear switch2 will be backwards compatible. Also If Sony goes digital only I will have to abandon them I like my physical games
nice can't wait switch 2 boutta be a beast
Looking forward to finally playing some of these third party bangers Switch wasn’t powerful enough to handle. Also whatever Monolith’s cooking up now that the limiter’s finally been removed.
hi OJ
Love your Naruto shirt any news on Naruto games on switch?
So switch support and at least 1 1st party switch game into 2026
Maybe even into 2027
I know that guy!
Xenoblade X leak coming out this October
[X] doubt
I really hope so. Been wanting X more than any other port.
@@Justuas I was just trolling :/
@@tw6109 never played it so I’d love a port!
Sweet
thank gawd,.. at least as much or likely more RAM than the Xbox Series S...
Dang didn't have Nintendo taking care of the consumers on my 2024 bingo card. Especially doing it better than Sony and Xbox (i.e. Microsoft) combined.
i refuse to buy digital. i want to actually OWN what i buy
I dont get whats the point of a switch 2 when we have the steamdeck,rog ally etc that are way more capable machines and can play everything already
Because people want to play Nintendo titles
... Naruto shirt^^
First to say ps4 level pay the 500 dollar fine on the way out…
We can extrapolate and a couple things with specs. 1) the chip design was made prior to what AMD made for the Steam Deck and the Ally. This means it’ll resemble those devices more than a PS4. 2) Given that timing, it’ll probably resemble DLSS 2 more than anything DLSS 3 that was made for the 4000 GPU series from this past year. 3) It might also be harder to update that DLSS since NVIDIA historically does not do well with updating it on previous gen architecture. The third point is the most projective from those, but I think we can be pretty confident with the first two.
You've got 2) backwards. The features of DLSS 2 were designed for their higher end GPUs. The features of 3 were designed to be implemented across there entire line.
@@bethanyh1637 DLSS 3 only works for the 4000 series GPUs. That is not backwards compatible. You can check me on that unless I’m misunderstanding what you’re saying?
@@ocoom8328 You seem to have missed a big announcement from them last year. But I did make a small mistake.Let me correct myself:
The new features of DLSS 3.0 were only for the higher series GPUs. The new features in DLSS 3.5 were implemented across their entire line.
@@bethanyh1637 I did see that, but the important part there is the frame generation still isn’t being applied to previous generations. That does make a big difference when we’re talking about projected capabilities for a chip that NVIDIA designed prior to the 4000 series.
You don't know anything because they haven't announce it yet, you don't know what Sony and Microsoft are planning with their mid gen consoles. I suggest you focus on the game's coming for the switch until next year when they reveal everything , you wouldn't want them to rush everything and get overshadowed by it's competitors
Overshadowed by what more power with no sufficient software to back it lmao
@@DankMemeCenterX Its going to get overshadowed by ps5pro and XBX portable , it's a bit too early to get excited it's best if we wait and see what happens
@@jermainewright2556Explain to me when MS released Project Scorpio did that affect Nintendo Switch? So your just trying to head cannon unnecessary information. You do realize the market for enchantment models is smaller than the base model right. So Nintendo only competition is maintaining the audience with quality software to compliment the system.
@@DankMemeCenterX No it didn't, Nintendo was listening to criticism of Wii U and addressed them with switch with it's hybrid console , gamers like the idea of taking their consoles on the go and interact with others elsewhere , however, with ps4pro and Xbox one X they can extend the lifespan of their current model up to 10 years or more , the same thing can happen with the 9th gen of consoles if switch 2 is a lot weaker
@@jermainewright2556How the other platform holders move is not tied to whether Nintendo had "power galore"or not in their successor. Ultimate software push hardware to the casual market which makes up the bread not the hardcore enthusiast lol.
Lord, please help this guy with the pronunciation of fiscal. Im begging you
Lord, please help this guy focus on the 99% positive, not the 1% negative. I'm begging you
@@GoldChocobo77 By that logic you basically wouldn't be able to point out anything.
LF to Metroid Prime 4 on the new / more powerful Switch.. (if it's not woke tainted..)
*eyeroll* Another neckbeard not knowing what “woke” even means.
Maybe try a dictionary before talking out your a$$.
Woke tainted? rolls-eyes
@NuiYabuko
seen too many franchises get woke tainted.., one of the last Pokemon Go.., ok, its not from Nintendo themselves, but hope Nintendo doesn't start that bandwagon too
@@VampireNoblesse Metroid and Pokemon have always been "woke".
@NuiYabuko
dunno why Metroid was always woke.., just cause of Female lead?.. Metroid was inspired by Alien/ Aliens, Ripley was a female lead too.., doesn't necessarily mean woke
third
I hope we get some more good capcom games for switch
