No? I mean, it's been clear to me since the start, it's got only like half the reach of my laptop and barely 1/3rd of Mt cellphone. THE main reason I got an ethernet setup in my room is the switch, pretty much every other I have has really good signal from my wifi that's halfway across the house.
Yeah dude its terrible. I can get a pretty consistent 33 ping on BF1 on my Xbox Series X. But with my switch. I can't even play a match of MK8DX online. Sure my wifi is crappy but I should be able to get into a game of Mario kart. Nintendo online network is primitive even compared to the og Xbox live. Why is it peer to peer?

if it uses the same eshop so I can download all my games I bought there on the new I will be happy. I don't own a single switch game cartridge except nintendo labo that I got with the console that I never play because I don't have the cardboard
Tbh, Sony already screwed themself with what the PS5 Pro will be... With anything XBox Series(insert random Letter to pretend it's better than the other Consoles) in the far Future, there isn't much to topple them besides Nintendo themself. My only hope is that you can Transfer any Save and Game Data from your older Switch Models to the new one
The thing is that the Wii U really wasn't a bad console. It mostly just suffered from bad marketing that made it seem like it was more of a Wii Pro than a true successor. The core audience of the Wii was the casual audience and parents buying it for their kids. Both groups don't really follow video game news. They may have seen some ads on TV that were like "Look with this new controler you can play while your parents watch TV!" and thought that they already had controllers for their Wii and didn't need that. To parents, it was just the same old Wii with a fancier controller.
And not just gameplay, but innovation in general. Seriously, what’s different between Xbox and PlayStation consoles besides better specs? Nothing, that’s what. Nintendo at least tries to put personality into their consoles and make them feel different
I just realized I haven't heard a single drama about nintendo blaming and insulting gamers for game failures other than suing for copyright(there probably some, but i haven't heard any yet).
@@roguestar9141consoles sure but theyre not innovating much with most of their games tbh. Tbh third party devs make stuff for nintendo consoles as well so I dont know everything on the switch, just that zelda breath of the wild (literally just a WiiU game remake) and then tears of the kingdom being maybe the most unique games theyve got, but is rythm heaven made by them?
@@roguestar9141 Don't forget Nintendo will also sue you for naming your child Luigi and they actively hate their fans and do everything in their power to ruin anything fan-made. Not saying Xbox or PlayStation is better but it's worth remembering how evil Nintendo actually is
The Wii bought into the pool of casuals that weren’t gamers, that’s why it sold so well. The switch merged nintendos handheld and console platforms, and had a pretty solid lineup of games with a couple bangers. I just hope Nintendo doesn’t fumble with the switch’s successor.
I have mixed opinions about the wii u. 1. It should have had better emulation support for ds games. You had 2 screens!!! And one was a touch screen. Its like you took the ds and split in to but the layout is still all there wtf. Or native support for ds games and gba games would have been even better. 2. The disc reader should have supported gamecube games. 3. Why couldnt it support multiple gamepad screen controllers... And the switch does that last thing. Give me a wiiU switch that is able to outperform the current switch, includes dlss, dlaa, fsr, and super resolution features 60 to 90 fps at 1440p. And gives us all of the 3 feature mentioned. Like make it a combo you have a console dock that boosts the performance, allow for multiple switches to be wifi or Bluetooth connected, and give the ds, gba, and gamecube support that those games absolutely deserve. Like gound up emulators specific to making it feel like a ds or gba or gamecube game. Theres no reason that the wiiu couldnt have had better ds support.
wasn't that number inflated because of the DvD player thing? sure probably most who bought it as DvD player at some point got some games, but the "which console" choice was already made for a different reason, than Ps love.
While yes the switch is very successful. No nintendo system that has sold 100+ million units has replicated the success in the next generation. The sales number have always been less than the orginal hit
The biggest issues for me are backwards compatibility and whether I can transfer my progress from one to the other. I would happily transfer my saved data from old to new, and give my old Switch to some of my nieces and nephews.

That's just how they sold it to you due to legacy branding reasons, etc. The GBA was for example in the market for 3 years before the DS came along which retained backwards capability till the DSi. The system was selling like hotcakes despite being killed off early.
Im hoping switch 2 is not the wii u type of issue. We have seen them with high sells with the wii only to mess up with the wii u. Not only that but Nintendo is known for having records of high and low sales based on their consoles.
That's because of branding issues. Nintendo tends to go after a casual audience first before satisfying their core audience which tend to demand more powerful hardware from them so they iterate on the concept a lot later in the cycle. Sony is the other way round.

Nintendo is definitely good at selling units but that's definitely an old strategy it doesn't work that well for the other consoles. Curious to see how well the xbox handheld will sell if it's even a real thing. I consider it a rumor still.
yeah a big part of that 140 million units sold was due to the low price that it started with. now a switch sells for 300 and the next step up will (likely) be even higher. (still cheaper then the other two though.)
I hope it does. Nintendo needs to be humbled. Everyone keep handing the money( me included. I have a switch) Their anti consumer actions will never get better if they are super successful.
@@Andres_81 Nintendo doesn't need third party exclusives, but it would make the switch 2 look all the more better. Square Enix already confirmed their porting their games to switch and Microsoft already made some of their ip's public like halo and call of duty. Hell I hope we get more games from, from software like elden ring and possibly even armored core 6. Okay admittedly that one may be a stretch, but a guy can dream. So to summarize, your right Nintendo doesn't need third party exclusives to sell the switch. But it would make it more appealing, then again this is just my opinion.
Apparantly the switch two will have a pretty nice nvidia mobile chip featuring dlss (actually good upscaling) and around 2 teraflops of performance in handheld mode. While that’s not a ton, the current switch has 0.15 teraflops in handheld mode
Sony knows that if they make a new PSP/PS Vita, it'll get nuked by Nintendo. Sony tried TWICE to make a portable that boasted itself as superior to Nintendo, and they failed both times marketing on specs. Their development kits were way too expensive, and everyone knows it. The PSP failed because of it's poor design, including the battery life and the UMD format for their games, and Sony tried to market the PSP on specs, and as a portable media player. Without the UMD, the PSP's battery life was about 8 hours. Using the UMD, the battery life was a minuscule and depressing 2 hours tops! That UMD (Universal Mini Disc) drive DEVOURED battery life! There were other problems like the lack of sticks, the expensive data format, and the fact a button was placed over part of the screen, so you had to press the button in an awkward way to get the unit to register it! The screen itself was a failure too! Between the fact that it was placed too close to the face buttons, and the dust-guard was terrible, resulting in dead pixels more often than not. The PS Vita marketed entirely on specs too, and in Japan Sony tried a while "He's all grown up" marketing campaign, depicting that a kid with a PS Vita was more mature than the other kids to an enviable degree. HOWEVER, the marketing campaign backfired, as the device had limited success, developers knew the PS Vita was a dead system anyways. Capcom's Monster Hunter games were at some point slated for a PS Vita release, but Capcom knew the dev kits would be way too expensive! So they focused development on the 3DS instead. The only real competitor to Nintendo's Switch and console supremacy is in the form of the Steam Deck from Valve, and the plethora of retro handheld devices on the market.
@@drwoHeylK Yeah, but the PSP still sold poorly, and was outdone by the DS by a longshot. The PSP marketed entirely on specs and the UMD, and Sony hoped people would not catch on to the glaring issues the PSP had. Like the fact Sony is now infamous for poor battery life in devices they make. The UMD was a disc drive which DEVOURED battery life, turning an 8 hour battery life without the UMD into a measley 2 hours. Which was about long enough to get a movie to run properly if the UMD wasn't scratched. It also ran a lot of PS1 emulation too. Then there was the improperly set dust guard which meant dust got into the screen, and resulted in dead pixels. Then there was the fact a button was right on top of the screen, so in order to actually press the button you had to push it in at an awkward angle to get the input proper. The only competition Nintendo has is the Steam Deck, and every retro handheld, and possibly the mobile market. If Nintendo's next console doubles as a phone, that's it! Nintendo will take over the mobile landscape with a console that will take a decade or more to become obsolete! And it'll royally fuck over every smartphone manufacturer! Watch as app stores adjust to Nintendo's next hardware and they BEG AND PLEAD to have their app store allowed to be on Nintendo's, even if it means these 3rd party app stores take a hit to their personal profits.
@@drwoHeylK Sony has a bad habit of making something with supposedly better specs, but a shorter lifespan, and then promoting it as an overall superior product. Nintendo pushes for fun games, which sell gaming hardware a lot more. Sony thinks selling on specs will work, but Iwata's statements proved Sony is wrong on that. We're at the point where technology is so advanced, the hardware can do so much, and graphical fidelity isn't as important as it used to be. Gameplay, mechanics, fun factor, these are what matter most in games.
Since Nintendo has been abusing their fans with the ridiculous number of "copyright claims" and such for things that do not hurt Nintendo's revenue but instead help advertise, I refuse to buy anything from Nintendo anymore
@@felipeemanuel5790 It did pretty much destroy the yuzu and citra emulators, theyre for the switch and 3ds. Like you can still probably just get both from an archive somewhere they just dont have anymore updates.
@@felipeemanuel5790 You... realize that people on the internet... are still PEOPLE, right? They aren't just fake or nonexistent because they're on the internet. The people that make the things that got Copyright claimed, or DMCA'd, or Cease and Desist'd? Real people, who put real-world time and effort into their things (usually).
@@felipeemanuel5790yes, I do know. Console guys will never care about what happens on the internet, because 99% of the time they aren't *on* the internet in the first place. What I also know is that the Switch 2 is cooked anyways, because this time, they have real competition. The Deck 2 is being announced in a very similar fashion, probably with a similar release date, and it is going to absolutely ruin the Switch 2 on every metric known to mankind. Why? Because this _does_ affect console guys. Do you know why console exclusives sell consoles? Because (most) console guys have real friends that buy those games and want to play with them. If it's a console exclusive, peer pressure is what sells those consoles. Now the Deck is here, and the Deck _absolutely guarantees_ that any game you can run on the Deck will _not_ be an exclusive, it _will_ be cross-platform and cross-progression with regular PC players, and you _will_ be able to play that game on whatever newer Deck/PC you buy in the future, _forever,_ no ifs, ands, buts, or maybes. That's a seller.
And that's why I love Nintendo. Not only has it's been the biggest part of my childhood. I met some of my best friends through Nintendo. Whether it's Kirby, Fire Emblem, Pokemon or Smash Bros. Nintendo has always brought us together.
The switch 2 goes one of two ways. Either it does half the switch sales or doubles. It entirely depends on the price and the upgrades. Considering they could afford 250 in 2017 for a 720p LCD. I could see a 300-350 4K 60FPS handheld.
4k? Thatd be stupid for a handheld screen Its probably gonna be 1440p at most lol. Or I guess maybe like when plugged in to a TV but theyre definetly not going to focus that...
That's an older models they literally released 3 new models for the og switch already you need a mod chip inside if you want to jailbreak the switch I have one like that work just fine.
I love my switch and all, but there’s a part of me that kinda would like Nintendo to do some out of pocket new system like they always have. 64, gamecube, Wii, ignoring Wii U and then the switch. They always go sicko mode swinging for the fences and hit or miss I’ve always respected that
More like the wii because at least that console had some good Black Friday sales unlike the wiiu which only got one good Black Friday sale without getting a price drop at the end of it's life cycle like how the NES, SNES, N64, GameCube, and Wii got.
In fairness, the Wii also sold over 100 million units, and then look at how the Wii U turned out, so I wouldn't bet on the switch selling gangbusters as any kind of guarantee of anything.
My $100 says that the Switch 2 will be a standalone system with just one screen, no backwards compatibility and the joycons are permanently attached like the Switch Lite and the wifi card inside will be the exact same one.
As long as Nintendo learn from the WiiU situation I think they'll be fine. Console will probably be under powered compared to the other two but, see the gap shrinking. Things like Skyrim and Doom (2016) got put on the Switch even if downgraded a bit. Don't see that being so bad with hardware going forward, I mean It's not like every game is trying to have ray tracing on consoles or something.
The switch 2 will only really be a competitor if it runs the main games of today. Basically it needs to be able to play games like gta, fallout, hell divers, stuff like that. I know the switch has had some games like that but it didn't do as good as the hardware could
I hate when people make fun of the switch cause it's a GOOD console. It has its issues but overall it works pretty well, along with having emulators of previous consoles. Why do people hate on it?
I think people forget they Switch is a portable and cheap console, whereas something like the PS5 is not. Parents might get their kids a switch each, but a PS5 to share. Also gaming and population has grown considerably over the last 20 years so that also accounts for sales.
I don't think they're cooked... they're marketing to a whole different audience. People get Switches to play Nintendo games and/or to play games portalbly, people get Xboxes and Playstations to simply play high-end games at their home.
I'm mainly sceptical if it's supposed to be literally "switch 2", especially since the oled switch came out not too long ago, feels like it may be the same problem with the wii u
Honestly, for years now, I've been hoping for an impossible console. A console made by both PlayStation and Xbox, with exclusive games from both companies on the console. For example, Halo and GoW. I honestly think it's a great financial decision for the companies, as the profit will most likely be split 50/50, and a joint console would sell much more, as there would be no need to decide between PS or XB. Plus one subscription service with the benefits of both(sales/free games from PS+ and that of gamepass)
Well, that hits harder much you think seeing all the controversy both of the these two consoles have massive right now very smart pointer but very true at the same time

Still love how Nintendo ANNOUNCED their ANNOUNCEMENT
I don’t know it’s gonna be hard to top that new feeling when the switch came out, at the same time a Zelda game like never before was the launch game
Lol they going to launch it with the new metroid game. No matter what I'm going to wait 1 years to see how it turn out
“Oh, Come On! That’s Forever Away!” And (Realises They’re Cooked) put a smile to my face
yeah a big part of that 140 million units sold was due to the low price that it started with. now a switch sells for 300 and the next step up will (likely) be even higher. (still cheaper then the other two though.)
I sincerely hope this doesn't become another WiiU situation
I hope it does. Nintendo needs to be humbled.
Everyone keep handing the money( me included. I have a switch)
Their anti consumer actions will never get better if they are super successful.
The three best ways for it to be a success is backwards compatibility, affordable pricing and good thrift party exclusives
@@santiagofernandez1885Why exclusives? Nintendo doesn't need third party exclusives to be successful. None of their past consoles have've them
@@I.C.WeinerThat's not how the industry works. If that were the case, apple should've been humbled long time ago
@@Andres_81 Nintendo doesn't need third party exclusives, but it would make the switch 2 look all the more better. Square Enix already confirmed their porting their games to switch and Microsoft already made some of their ip's public like halo and call of duty. Hell I hope we get more games from, from software like elden ring and possibly even armored core 6. Okay admittedly that one may be a stretch, but a guy can dream. So to summarize, your right Nintendo doesn't need third party exclusives to sell the switch. But it would make it more appealing, then again this is just my opinion.
Apparantly the switch two will have a pretty nice nvidia mobile chip featuring dlss (actually good upscaling) and around 2 teraflops of performance in handheld mode. While that’s not a ton, the current switch has 0.15 teraflops in handheld mode
Now if Sony would actually listen to their players maybe we'd have a new *actual* psp
Sony knows that if they make a new PSP/PS Vita, it'll get nuked by Nintendo. Sony tried TWICE to make a portable that boasted itself as superior to Nintendo, and they failed both times marketing on specs. Their development kits were way too expensive, and everyone knows it.
The PSP failed because of it's poor design, including the battery life and the UMD format for their games, and Sony tried to market the PSP on specs, and as a portable media player.
Without the UMD, the PSP's battery life was about 8 hours. Using the UMD, the battery life was a minuscule and depressing 2 hours tops! That UMD (Universal Mini Disc) drive DEVOURED battery life! There were other problems like the lack of sticks, the expensive data format, and the fact a button was placed over part of the screen, so you had to press the button in an awkward way to get the unit to register it! The screen itself was a failure too! Between the fact that it was placed too close to the face buttons, and the dust-guard was terrible, resulting in dead pixels more often than not.
The PS Vita marketed entirely on specs too, and in Japan Sony tried a while "He's all grown up" marketing campaign, depicting that a kid with a PS Vita was more mature than the other kids to an enviable degree. HOWEVER, the marketing campaign backfired, as the device had limited success, developers knew the PS Vita was a dead system anyways. Capcom's Monster Hunter games were at some point slated for a PS Vita release, but Capcom knew the dev kits would be way too expensive! So they focused development on the 3DS instead.
The only real competitor to Nintendo's Switch and console supremacy is in the form of the Steam Deck from Valve, and the plethora of retro handheld devices on the market.
@@RAPTOR948 Yeah, the psvita did sell horribly... but the psp still did ok.
@@drwoHeylK Yeah, but the PSP still sold poorly, and was outdone by the DS by a longshot. The PSP marketed entirely on specs and the UMD, and Sony hoped people would not catch on to the glaring issues the PSP had.
Like the fact Sony is now infamous for poor battery life in devices they make.
The UMD was a disc drive which DEVOURED battery life, turning an 8 hour battery life without the UMD into a measley 2 hours. Which was about long enough to get a movie to run properly if the UMD wasn't scratched. It also ran a lot of PS1 emulation too.
Then there was the improperly set dust guard which meant dust got into the screen, and resulted in dead pixels.
Then there was the fact a button was right on top of the screen, so in order to actually press the button you had to push it in at an awkward angle to get the input proper.
The only competition Nintendo has is the Steam Deck, and every retro handheld, and possibly the mobile market. If Nintendo's next console doubles as a phone, that's it! Nintendo will take over the mobile landscape with a console that will take a decade or more to become obsolete! And it'll royally fuck over every smartphone manufacturer! Watch as app stores adjust to Nintendo's next hardware and they BEG AND PLEAD to have their app store allowed to be on Nintendo's, even if it means these 3rd party app stores take a hit to their personal profits.
@@RAPTOR948 .............................................................................. ok whatever
@@drwoHeylK Sony has a bad habit of making something with supposedly better specs, but a shorter lifespan, and then promoting it as an overall superior product.
Nintendo pushes for fun games, which sell gaming hardware a lot more.
Sony thinks selling on specs will work, but Iwata's statements proved Sony is wrong on that.
We're at the point where technology is so advanced, the hardware can do so much, and graphical fidelity isn't as important as it used to be. Gameplay, mechanics, fun factor, these are what matter most in games.
The 3DS in the back: Am I a joke to you!? 🤬
Since Nintendo has been abusing their fans with the ridiculous number of "copyright claims" and such for things that do not hurt Nintendo's revenue but instead help advertise, I refuse to buy anything from Nintendo anymore
Do you know nobody cares about those "copyright claims" right? Because it doesn't affect nobody in real life, just some random dudes on internet.
@@felipeemanuel5790 It did pretty much destroy the yuzu and citra emulators, theyre for the switch and 3ds. Like you can still probably just get both from an archive somewhere they just dont have anymore updates.
Welcome to Japanese laws that are harsh as all hell! How do you like their lack of any fair use laws?
@@felipeemanuel5790 You... realize that people on the internet... are still PEOPLE, right? They aren't just fake or nonexistent because they're on the internet.
The people that make the things that got Copyright claimed, or DMCA'd, or Cease and Desist'd? Real people, who put real-world time and effort into their things (usually).
@@felipeemanuel5790yes, I do know. Console guys will never care about what happens on the internet, because 99% of the time they aren't *on* the internet in the first place. What I also know is that the Switch 2 is cooked anyways, because this time, they have real competition. The Deck 2 is being announced in a very similar fashion, probably with a similar release date, and it is going to absolutely ruin the Switch 2 on every metric known to mankind. Why? Because this _does_ affect console guys.
Do you know why console exclusives sell consoles? Because (most) console guys have real friends that buy those games and want to play with them. If it's a console exclusive, peer pressure is what sells those consoles. Now the Deck is here, and the Deck _absolutely guarantees_ that any game you can run on the Deck will _not_ be an exclusive, it _will_ be cross-platform and cross-progression with regular PC players, and you _will_ be able to play that game on whatever newer Deck/PC you buy in the future, _forever,_ no ifs, ands, buts, or maybes. That's a seller.
The successor has to compete with hand held gaming pcs like the steam deck and rog ally and stuff
I laughed hard at the ending when they realised...yeah were screwed
Backwards compatibility would be so nice - especially with all the online Classic stuff like (S)NES , 64 and all that -
And that's why I love Nintendo. Not only has it's been the biggest part of my childhood. I met some of my best friends through Nintendo. Whether it's Kirby, Fire Emblem, Pokemon or Smash Bros. Nintendo has always brought us together.
Tbh, Nintendo hasn't really released a good system in a while, I don't think being portable really makes up for it's staggering technical limitations.
The switch 2 goes one of two ways. Either it does half the switch sales or doubles. It entirely depends on the price and the upgrades. Considering they could afford 250 in 2017 for a 720p LCD. I could see a 300-350 4K 60FPS handheld.
4k? Thatd be stupid for a handheld screen Its probably gonna be 1440p at most lol. Or I guess maybe like when plugged in to a TV but theyre definetly not going to focus that...
@@aarepelaa1142 for a tiny screen like they have now on it, 1080p is more than enough on handheld. 4k while docked would be nice though
Tbh if the next successor lets you play 3ds games and last gen switch games I'll buy two
PlayStation should be terrified, it was 14 million away from outselling the ps2.
comparing it to ps2 instead of ps5 just shows how much playstation sucks their newest console was a flop
@@unknown_bro420Soo I checked and it only has 59 million 💀
@@unknown_bro420Soo I checked and it only has 59 million 💀 that is a lot but how people are talking about it I was expecting like 100 million
I've heard people talking about magnetic joycons, don't think that would work as well as the normal joycons
Hear me out, they introduce a way to let you port over your old DS game over to Switch
BRUH THAT WOULD BE SO COOL
We be lucky if they allow us to play witch game on the new console
Yo Halo and battle front 2 are on VR if you mod the game contractors but it's SUUPER EASY TO MOD and it's crazy how good it is
March 31st 2025, that’s my birthday
It isn't always about being the best sometimes enjoyablity wins!
and yet the switch security lost to a paperclip
That's an older models they literally released 3 new models for the og switch already you need a mod chip inside if you want to jailbreak the switch I have one like that work just fine.
I love my switch and all, but there’s a part of me that kinda would like Nintendo to do some out of pocket new system like they always have. 64, gamecube, Wii, ignoring Wii U and then the switch. They always go sicko mode swinging for the fences and hit or miss I’ve always respected that
I hope the switch 2 fails so nintendo would go back to how they were in the wii u days.
lol
More like the wii because at least that console had some good Black Friday sales unlike the wiiu which only got one good Black Friday sale without getting a price drop at the end of it's life cycle like how the NES, SNES, N64, GameCube, and Wii got.
Why would that be a good thing?
Why ? They the only one in the big 3 that making good game right now
That's why I'm getting the switch 2. It will be my first Nintendo console
What if they name it the "Switch U"
i want the dock to have a game cartridge port
so if it is broken on the console itself you can still play your games
In fairness, the Wii also sold over 100 million units, and then look at how the Wii U turned out, so I wouldn't bet on the switch selling gangbusters as any kind of guarantee of anything.
*Realizes they're cooked*
Made me laugh so damn hard 😂
I just hope they use GPU in a can tyoe tech for the dock so it can compete with PS and Xbox when on TV and keep the portible hand held aspect
Remember, the wii also sold over 100mil units. Its succesor, not even 20mil
My $100 says that the Switch 2 will be a standalone system with just one screen, no backwards compatibility and the joycons are permanently attached like the Switch Lite and the wifi card inside will be the exact same one.
Give us ports for all the Legend of Zelda games from Gamecube and the Wii. It will destroy all competition. Also, that last line goes hard.
Actually the past few Nintendo successors such as the game cube, Wii u, and 3ds never sold more than their counterpart. So we will see how this goes.
As long as Nintendo learn from the WiiU situation I think they'll be fine. Console will probably be under powered compared to the other two but, see the gap shrinking. Things like Skyrim and Doom (2016) got put on the Switch even if downgraded a bit. Don't see that being so bad with hardware going forward, I mean It's not like every game is trying to have ray tracing on consoles or something.
I've been done with Nintendo for so long now. They have some of the coolest tech, but somehow never keep up with the times.
As a switch owner, im excited
Honestly with the way they've been running the company lately I can't imagine this successor will be any better
Went from russian to Jackie chan real fast
The switch 2 will only really be a competitor if it runs the main games of today. Basically it needs to be able to play games like gta, fallout, hell divers, stuff like that. I know the switch has had some games like that but it didn't do as good as the hardware could
I hate when people make fun of the switch cause it's a GOOD console. It has its issues but overall it works pretty well, along with having emulators of previous consoles. Why do people hate on it?
I think people forget they Switch is a portable and cheap console, whereas something like the PS5 is not. Parents might get their kids a switch each, but a PS5 to share. Also gaming and population has grown considerably over the last 20 years so that also accounts for sales.
I just hope my stand and control will be compatible with it too
I don't think they're cooked... they're marketing to a whole different audience. People get Switches to play Nintendo games and/or to play games portalbly, people get Xboxes and Playstations to simply play high-end games at their home.
The “cooked” face was amazing 😂
I'm mainly sceptical if it's supposed to be literally "switch 2", especially since the oled switch came out not too long ago, feels like it may be the same problem with the wii u
i honestly think the switch successor will sell well but not as much as the switch
They forgot to ask "Will the Joycon buttons not wear out in less than 2 months?" 😔
“Imagine what my successor will do”
Wii to Wii U conversion:
Honestly, for years now, I've been hoping for an impossible console. A console made by both PlayStation and Xbox, with exclusive games from both companies on the console. For example, Halo and GoW. I honestly think it's a great financial decision for the companies, as the profit will most likely be split 50/50, and a joint console would sell much more, as there would be no need to decide between PS or XB. Plus one subscription service with the benefits of both(sales/free games from PS+ and that of gamepass)
Especially if you get a discount if you trade in your current switch
i hope switch successor won’t end up in the same situation as wii u
The last line of the switch really makes you think about how many they're going to sell.
Note: PlayStation was the only one that was worried.
Very smooth breadbox had me 😂😂
Well, that hits harder much you think seeing all the controversy both of the these two consoles have massive right now very smart pointer but very true at the same time
Famous last words
"Imagine what ny successor would do" ~ Wii
Nintendo don't normally just improve on old ideas, they innovate. For better or worse
My biggest hope for Switch 2 is that it’s as or more powerful than the current gen consoles, or powerful enough that fortnite looks good on it
If they win against PalWorld. I'm not buying whatever they're making after that win
If Nintendo goes the Wii U route, it will be a sad console.
