@@tielmaster7879that's complete nonsense. Casuals are way more patient than "gamers" in this. Casuals are not even paying attention to this.

He even said it in the video. These videos get views. These videos make him money. There will he tons of these videos till the system comes out. Even after it's officially announced I'm betting leak videos will still make views and therefore money.
As basic as it sounds, the name Switch 2 makes sense. The Switch name is too popular to get rid off and using the word 'Pro' would confuse people into thinking it's not a brand new console.
@@paulaclark2101 Super is too similar to Switch Pro. I know it worked the first go round but it was much easier to demonstrate the SNES was a new console by the graphics looking way better and the console looking completely different. It just has to be Switch 2.
Supposedly someone used the wayback machine and said they used the same banner before the original switch reveal so hopefully they show something this month
FYI that banner is the same banner used when the switch was announced in October of 2016. Also, if you mentioned this in a previous video I apologize, there is a case on Amazon Japans site with a shipping date of March 15th. Also note that there are some Nintendo execs at CES, just got there yesterday so read that as you will, but they didn't bring MIB folks to deal with leaks that's for sure.
Welp calling it the “Switch 2” might be the best decision ultimately. I mean the reason the Wii U did so badly is because nobody was sure whether it was an additional controller or a new iteration or whatever! So calling it the “Switch 2” is straightforward and simple yet safe because Nintendo definitely doesnt want another Wii U situation
Tbf it was the marketing that killed it more than the dumbass name. If they would have just said the thing was standalone it would have been interesting, but they labelled it as some form of a "companion console" for the Wii. So at that point, it just looks like an absurdly expensive tablet/controller. I mean if Xbox can sell their consoles with their god awful naming convention, then "Wii u" isn't the major problem (tho again, the name was fucking stupid)
@@darcidious99 One of the complaints about Xbox are all the random names lol And Xbox doesn't sell consoles. That's the other thing they're failing at. There's even videos of kids getting the wrong Xbox for Christmas. So idk what your point is
I just realized, I’ve been watching you for almost a decade now!! Thank you for all the entertainment and info over the years… youre always on in my household
I’ve always thought it would be cool if a company that is releasing something that’s highly anticipated just released it out of nowhere, no preorder no release date just get it now
Nintendo's fiscal calendar starts in March. A release earlier in the year makes sense, more time to put more money on the books for the year. Demographics have changed too, adults spend their adult money on games for themselves, there's no need to wait for the holidays to coerce parents into buying this stuff, for lack of a better description. We've been waiting for this system for five years. Now's fine, now's a good time.
Those remind me of the Mario kart background. Those dots were on Mario kart 8 deluxe if I’m not mistaken. I just want 2ds and 3ds games to start being ported to the switch because I love a bunch of those game but always always lack screen size to truly appreciate the game.
Your are right the switch 2 must be coming out soon.On 1/2/25 I received a message from Nintendo News, about transferring my save data from switch to switch
April seems reasonable, I was thinking late spring/early summer. If Nintendo announces the Switch 2 at the end of January/ beginning of February, the end of April is about 3 months from that point.
I could see an April release date making sense in one major way because 3rd party accessory manufacturers wouldn't be showcasing their products already if the Switch 2 was releasing in the Fall. No, they'd wait til Summer to show that stuff off. Now I could see Nintendo delaying the release yet again, but I think the internal plan is probably this Spring and that's why these 3rd party manufacturers are out showcasing their products now.
Original Switch had a 5 month period between official Nintendo reveal and system launch. I wouldn't be surprised if Switch 2 gets announced in a couple weeks and launches in April/May. Honestly I think it's awesome that way. Don't have to wait that long to get the system.
The big 2 is perfect because if you're a parent who literally knows nothing, you can easily discern a difference in store. As much as I would like a different name, a different name wouldn't necessarily imply a successor, whereas a '2' does. I'm all for RGT and his hype videos. Feels like end of 2016/start of 2017 all over again. I love the hype excitement and already saving up $$$$ for everything at launch.
I am tired of the the sleek and thin handhelds design by Nintendo. Missed opportunity her to do something more creative if the Rumors are true. I mean, part of the reason I play the Steamdeck and haven't touched the Switch in years is because the Switch is so uncomfortable to hold compared to something like the Steamdeck. I play my GBA more often than the switch now days. I miss Iwata's Nintendo.
In the Genki video that many are considering real, when the Dock spins to the right the reflection shows the “Switch 2” logo and it looks just like the one you showed. Identical. I suspect it’s real. I for one like the simplicity of Switch 2, but to each their own.
It actually is marketing. Just not by Nintendo itself. Yet still is good for the company. What do you do when you want to present something before you actually present it?…..build up the hype about it. Regardless if the actual company has a hand in it or not it’s all the hype being built up. Which is ultimately settling up the stage for the final presentation.
April makes sense considering it will be 8 years this April the switch was released. Also the reveal to the launch doesn't need much time considering we've been ready for this system for quite some time now.
Neat idea for a carrying case. Unbuttoning the straps each time you want to open the case is not great for functionality. Mario and Luigi present a giant peach.
I think the key take away is nintendo knows they need to hype and launch well ahead of the luanch on gta6 release date and luanch because they will significantly be affected sales wise from it. Every game coming out that's ready needs to luanch ahead of that if they want maximum luanch profits
The Nintendo president said already like a year ago now that the time from reveal to release would be shorter than any console before it. I wish I could find the video to post a link but I def remember hearing this.. so a January-February reveal and a March-may release sounds like what it’s going to be. 🤷♂️
Nintendo might be taking a play out of Apple’s book and showing off the Switch 2, and releasing it a month later with pre orders starting a week after announcement. Or some variation thereof. Edit: also adding that this would be a great strategy to drum up excitement and almost guarantee the first batch sells out quickly.
That red and blue Switch is rumoured to be the 3rd colour for the launch and would come with Mario Kart 9. I’m still hoping for a name change: Super Switch!
Have you saw the story that’s going around that explains the mystery c button. It’s a community button that would let you post things to social media. The switch 2 will have a social media like community similar to TikTok and TH-cam. Thats shows things your friends have posted or shared. Just wondering if you have saw this story or could check it out and see if it’s true.
I am becoming more and more convinced that its intentional. The only thing Nintendo has gotta do at this point is explain what the thing can do (hardware/software) then announce the launch titles and it'll work. Honestly the could pull it off with out even having the physical device present 🤣
It’s smart to name it “switch 2” Nintendo always had successful consoles followed by disappointing one so they wanna make sure that this next console remains successful
I thought the March launch for Switch seemed really good. The die hard fans bought it up at the beginning and it was possible (although probably hard still) for more normal gamers to get it at Christmas.

Since it hasn't even been announced I'd lean towards summer if it weren't for all these leaks. If it launches in April, I'm guessing they have to announce it this month then, right?
Switch 2 has the best marketing strategy in the world and that super rich company is spending nothing on it.
For gamers, yes lol. For the casuals, taking too long to reveal it can actually hurt them. But we'll see how it plays out.

The moment Nintendo shows their Direct on this, it’s going to have record viewers for a Direct.

That Mario and Luigi banner was also present back in October 2016 on the Nintendo Japan twitter account before they revealed switch 1
My birthday is in April. So that makes the most sense to me that they would release the Switch 2 then.

Nobody really cares about what it looks like unfortunatly because there are already so many pictures of it out there
Those remind me of the Mario kart background. Those dots were on Mario kart 8 deluxe if I’m not mistaken. I just want 2ds and 3ds games to start being ported to the switch because I love a bunch of those game but always always lack screen size to truly appreciate the game.

Switch was in March.
It fits Nintendos pattern and the leak patterns historically.

April seems reasonable, I was thinking late spring/early summer. If Nintendo announces the Switch 2 at the end of January/ beginning of February, the end of April is about 3 months from that point.

I think that Mario and Luigi image is they are about to do a curtain reveal, but they used a white background for now.
