Switch 2 being 2025 is great and couldn’t have worked out better for me. Hyped!!! :joy:

With at least 10 new ones from them, that’s enough to cover.

I don’t mind it if it’s to ensure a strong first party lineup. With the 3DS they didn’t have anything major release for it till like Mario 3D Land very late in the year when the system came out in March 2011, so they could have just launched the system later and saved themselves from the struggling launch. They definitely took that in as a lesson.

Could it be to ensure enough stock supply to meet their expected demand which is probably gonna be insane

Agreed.

A great launch lineup, great launch year, backwards compatibility, upscaling/upgraded patches for Switch 1 games would be great for me. If they were to add Virtual Console like Wii, oh man, I would be thrilled!!

For those who know anything about tech and all that stuf…do you know why this AMD insider is reacting like this? Is it bad?

I’m clueless on this stuff but from the reactions, it doesn’t sound good, my impression is that Nintendo are cheaping out as always an making it so they don’t take a loss on the hardware

In other words, it’s going to be underpowered so same old Nintendo

I feel sorry for anyone who is expecting anything different.

They have 10 games releasing this year according to business update.

“It will be different this time” - Nintendo fans before every Nintendo launch :valle:

From Software has 10 games this year? :thinking:

Err…quoting isn’t work well for me. I meant from Xbox.

Its not that big of deal. Launch Switch was 20nm, the Switch OLED is 16nm. Switch 2 will be 8. No one in the world outside of a handful of miserable people on the internet will give a shit.

Everyone else will just be playing Mario and Zelda. It was already known that they were shooting for PS4/XB1/Steam Deck Level power but with modern Nvida features. That is a massive leap forward from the switch.

Ah that makes more sense :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:.

I think they meant 10 releases rather than games as Booty also listed the Diablo expansion as one of the examples.

Yeah, but that’s still plenty. I think we got like 6 standalone games this year that we can count right now.
