which tbf, is sorta acurate
I don't think the Switch2 is going to be anything more than everyone thinks it will be, and leaks suggest it is
it is going to be a slightly more powerful Switch 1, with a better default screen and better controllers
they'll use AMD/Nvidia hardware upscaling and their own existing performance scaling in Switch games, to make everything run a bit better or look a bit better
they'll restrict some bigger games to be "Switch 2 exclusive"
but this console was meant to come out in 2020/2021
delaying it 4 years and not just scrapping it and starting over was a dumb decision
I also think Nintendo really missed the mark getting into mobile gaming and making all these investments, but never really building it up to be anything more than a sideshow
I still think the future of Nintendo is a closed ecosystem streaming-first software service
a successful version of what Microsoft is trying desperately to do today
Yeah I'm sort of coming around to the fact it might sell a good bit worse than nintendo is hoping
The coming out four years late is big, there's a question as to how much more powerful it'll really be than the original and also it doesn't really distinguish itself from switch 1 a lot. Imo making the joycons different could have gone a long way
Like making the system have a curved underside instead of be rectangular, and making the joycons extend down so it'd look more like a traditional controller
Also more shoulder buttons is something I've always hoped more controllers would implement. Like a lot of games are hard to play on console sonce you cant do like 10 keybinds as on keyboard, but that could be fixed with more shoulder buttons

Some chinese company brought their Switch 2 to CES
to show off their Switch 2 cases, PC dock, and charging stand thing
I know none of the "leaks" mean anything, since the console's "leaked" 10,000 times already

Honestly I’d be interested in that one

I saw people shitting on centro on twitter, did he do something recently or more of the usual
You being in conflict with the twitter guy I kept getting spammed was such a funny side arc
I hope it ends up being correct
that would be funny
People don't even click links to verify what they say
so yeah, that does not surprise me

Switch 2 might get announced on thursday btw
I’ll believe it when I see it
In particular, it was an internal leak (supposed), they are claiming it is just showing the console and no games, games direct to follow end of feb/early march
