OLED or no thanks.
Switch 2 OLED coming in 2028
As much as 512gb…
Just to make sure, that was my point. I bought a $110 (on sale) 2tb card and expanded the memory. Games are becoming much bigger, maybe not Nintendo but the point stands. It’s irritating buying an expensive purchase then having to buy more. Idk it kinds feels like I want them to offer a “complete device for the time”. Comparable hardware to other entertainment systems.
I’m alright with the “provide a moderate amount of storage and space to upgrade it” method. Keeps the base price down, while power users can have what they want too.
I stuffed an extra 2TB SSD in my PS5 for just under £100. Now see Apple’s iPad Pro pricing, where going from 128GB to 2TB adds a whopping £1250 to it, more than doubling the price.
Where did you find a 2tb micro SD card? I didn’t think they existed.
I can’t speak to their performance because they seem to be all one brand (and not a major one like SanDisk) but they ARE out there.
Only a matter of time before that territory is breached by the major player though. Nintendo themselves even have a branded 1 TB SD card (made by SanDisk ofc).
Yeach 32gb on switch was a joke. And they really didint need to add that much storage to make purchase of sd card unnessesary. I have 128gb sd card on my switch and thats more than enough space for switch games( kinda helps that switch is my Indie machine and they dont exatcly weight a ton, so i would still recomend 256 at least for normal use)
lcd
Ffs.
Make it similar enough under the hood to the switch that ryujinx just need an update to play its games.
I mean, hey great!
I could just be dumb, but I hope that it’ll still use the switch cartridge. Like how they did it with the DS line up until the 3DS when they changed it. I could see them potentially doing that too. If it does I’ll finally jailbreak my OG switch with the tegra exploit. Just been too much of a scaredy cat to do it.
I was thinking this earlier today. If they do make the switch 2 compatible with current switch games, physical and digital, it’ll be a damn near instant day 1 buy for me.
I have the lowest of low expectations for Nintendo consoles. They’re always filled to the brim with gimmicks, that while creative, are not fun to use and then the best games are always ones that completely disregard the gimmicks anyhow. I wish they would focus more on making consoles that LOOK and FEEL good when you’re playing instead of trying to create the next new thing no one will care about in 5 years. They also really lost the plot on the Pokemon franchise and I feel like that will start to lose them a lot of money when people start to wake up from their comas and realize Gamefreak doesn’t know how to make video games and the last good one they made was am eternity ago.
I really wonder if a Switch 2 will do as well as the first Switch.
More and more handheld gaming PCs are released by the time the Switch 2 comes around. Yes, a Switch 2 does have the advantage of access to Nintendo games (if we ignore Emulators) and I would imagine lower price, but I haven’t touched my Switch since I got the Steamdeck. I even sold an extra Switch Lite I had.
I rarely, basically never used the Switch plugged into a TV. I only played it in handheld mode with a skin that made it more comfortable to hold than a flat brick. Nintendo games rarely drop in price and sales don’t reduce prices by much VS PC games that often go on sale and older games drop to very low prices on sale.
I’m certain there’s a market for a Switch 2, I’m just wondering if it will do as well as the first Switch in the current market with more options.
Will definitely be skipping this one. I almost never use my Switch as it is. At home, I use the PC. I can emulate single player games like Breath of the Wild. On the go, I’ve been enjoying mobile games on my phone (surprisingly) or I use my laptop. The Switch hasn’t been a big draw.
I just need them to confirm existing cartridges work and I am there buying it day one…
Fuck yeah, I’ve spent some serious buck on games.
If it’s 1080p then that’s fine for me. An 8 inch 1080p LCD would at least slightly compare to a 720p OLED.
No OLED?
Are they going to make it simpler to deal with controllers so I can play remotely with my mom? It’s so frustrating to try and talk her through reconfiguring her controllers over the phone.
It will be the same, it has to for compatibility.
If they fix joycon drift and use the buttons they used on switch lite I’ll be happy. The joycon buttons stab into my fingers.
Lol seriously? I was actually planning to get this but the nore I hear about it, the more I think I’ll wait a few years for the updated version to release. Nintendo doesn’t make very many good games nowadays anyway.
