>the only new reveals are that the Switch 2 will NOT be fully backwards compatible like Nintendo had originally claimed, the full presentation is still 2.5 months away, and five seconds of a new Mario Kart that looks extremely similar to its 10 year old predecessor
Man, console reveals aren’t what they used to be.

They’re just hedging against people trying to use the LABO Headset or Ring Fit on the system.
 
I doubt if it's even 1080p
That was the most lazy presentation they ever did for such an important reveal.
They put out way more effort on the freaking alarm clock.
This. Switch is their best selling console of all time and this is what they put out, a pre rendered trailer with fucking mario kart. Bravo.
 
https://youtube.com/watch?v=itpcsQQvgAQI thought it was fake because I found this on /v/ at first, but no its actually real, talk about boy cry wolf.
Looks like a bigger, more powerful Switch. I thought that Mario Kart footage was just 8 Deluxe. I'm surprised of the "certain Switch titles will not be BC" if the Switch 2 will have detectable JoyCons like its predecessor. So it'll be software based like the Xbox One.

I'm not a fan of platformers; what games would exist for the Switch that interest me? Besides Mario Kart, Splatoon and Bayonetta? I was holding off on the Switch since it's reaching end of life.
 
This makes me kind of miss E3, the switch 2 reveal would be so embarrassing and hokey and weird but that's why we love nintendo.

Nintendo Back Then:
"Hello! Here's the NES. Years later we will reveal something called a SNES that will be better than the NES in every way but you'll still be able to enjoy games the same way you did before!"

Nintendo Now:
"Hello! We have this device that we really haven't beta tested, but that's where you come in! With your feedback, we will then release the actual device we wanted to release in the first place that may or may not be compatible with the stuff you played on the previous device. Also the controls will have some asinine gimmic because why not."
 
Not that excited for it but honestly might try to save up and get one on release purely because the first models will almost certainly be the ones to get hacked/jail broken first because of some hardware or software oversight from Nintendo.

That’s my plan too, gonna try get 3 or 4 and flip all but one around Christmas to make the keeper free.
 
I'm just gonna be real.
Anyone excited for this shit is retarded. When Switch 1 came out, there wasn't 400 different handheld gaming PC's, it was a market needing a product. That isn't the case anymore, and Nintendo are some of the biggest niggerfaggots in the industry who don't deserve a cent of support. Enjoy your bing bing wahoo, I'll laugh on the open seas when someone makes an emulator that can run on a handheld, completely defeating the purpose of this piece of shit. Hope your gay twink elf, fat Italian plumber, and buggy low effort creature capture games are worth being treated like cattle by the gaming industry equivelent of the mafia.
 
Nintendo really just gave up on creating new gimmicks each generation, huh?
for the better honestly, rumor has it that one of Microsoft's new consoles are going to be a handheld and the other one a sort of Series X2, in this modern gaming world a console is just a gateway into video games, devices for non-PC Gaming normies pretty much, me personally im keeping my 3060 rig until it doesnt work anymore, then ill think about what im going to replace it with, all 3 companies have pretty much given up on the idea that hardware sales are important
 
Anyway, I've heard that Nintendo is working with Denuvo. What's the over-under of S2 having some advanced anti piracy features because they're seething at emulators?
 
If I can play Dark Souls (essentially the best version aside from pc ptde for switch) in 1080p maybe 60fps I'll be happy. But the devs would have to patch it and fromsoftware can't be assed.
The switch version of DaS also has some awful audio quality (due to compression iirc). So even with a resolution and fps patch, it would still be a borked version.
It's criminal that the best version of this goat game can't even be purchased anymore, and that even though it's the best, it still fucking sucks in many ways.

You get a switch mostly for the exclusives tbf, but depending on the company we could get some great imrpovement patches, the nier port on the og switch isnt bad at all, but with a patch it could easily run at 60fps with a better resolution on the switch 2 for example, same with something like witcher 3, not a bad port, could easily be improved.
The switch 1 and 2 had the advantages of using nvidias api, which many many devs are already extremely familiar and good at using, while the other consoles use amds which has a somewhat subpar api compararibely. Thats one of the reasons we saw so many "impossible" ports most likely

I'm excited, relatively speaking. I've never owned a Nintendo console since the Wii. Maybe Nintendo has their shit together to revive the gaming industry. Of course, I'll just wait and see.

You're honestly not missing mush outside of a few 1st parties and even then the WiiU has been outclassed by the switch for some time now. In fact you'd have a better time with their handhelds, and with that you can at least easily emulate them.
Maybe Nintendo has their shit together

yeah, at this point, I'll just grab a Steam Deck OLED and wait until Switch 2 emulation becomes viable (which, considering it's just a beefier Switch, should not take long, despite Nintendon't's best efforts). I was cautiously optimistic at first, but that reveal trailer combined with their actions as of late deflated me something fierce
 
Aside from the new connections for those soycons so they you can no longer use the last generation ones, therefore you MUST buy the new ones, where's the "upgrade"?
It still has massive bezels and the processor likely still sucks, there's likely still no internal recording either.
Extremely lame.

Yeah it's not like it's the PS Vita that had a bunch of features that made porting the games to regular controls for PS TV an extra hassle (So Sony never did and half the Vita library doesn't work on it). Most of the games have bog standard control schemes with maybe a little wiggling and gyro aim added which the Switch 2 can certainly pull off.

Yeah, as I said on the Xbox thread, I am considering a PC or a Switch 2 as neither MS or Sony are giving any tangible reason to invest in them anymore.
 
Is it me or is this a really boring and low effort ad?
The switch 1 had all these actors and high production values. This is just a simple 3d animation that feels like they're announcing an accessory, not the pizzazz of a new console.

Wonder if they had to quickly slap it together because of the leaks.
Nothing will beat the Wii ad where the Japanese businessmen go door to door saying "Wii would like to play"

But I think it's a bit more clear how Nintendo sees the console. It's not a completely new console and they're not going to pretend it is. They're treating it as a +0.5 gen where only a percentage of current Switch owners will upgrade.
