The "New" name should live on.
"Mom? Can I have a New Switch?"
"YOU ALREADY HAVE 2?!?!"

The aiming can still be done by GYRO and works FINE, what are you even talking about?

Hum, I might have disabled and forgotten that. I played the game on WiiU. My last game on that silly console.

I think a “home” switch makes sense. If you have the service and all your games are cloud saved anyway, then instead of taking the $300 switch out of the living room you just grab your LITE and leave the home unit there. The unit itself would have no screen nor digitizer and be all soldered like a LITE. So for $300 you get a Switch PHAT. OR, for $400 you get a switch lite and a switch home. Plus, this would make it super easy for devs to support both. It would also mean success of the one line would bluster support for the other. (Think how last gen N3DS was the best seller and Wii U the worst.)

botw couldn't be further from a zelda game. it's a big empty world with hardly anything to do. nearly all of the shrines puzzles can be cheesed with runes and jump shield tricks. and the actual dungeons (if you call them that) are mediocre. if botw2 is going to be the shit different bucket i won't even be bothering with it.

The game is and apocalyptic story everything has been almost destroyed and the main character has no memory and has just woken up into this reality, so everything he does is new to him so the game is designed to be a learning experience for what’s to come

Looks like amiibos might be coming to life with a new patent being filed by Nintendo looks like everything is getting a second chance ,probably has to do with Animal Crossing

What makes sense to me about the Switch is to kinda treat it like cell phones, have upgraded version released every few years, next is the Switch 2, and 4 years later they could release a Switch 3, etc. etc. Encourage devs to release games playable on the Switch 1 if possible, and then offer better output when played on the later hardware, but if the original Switch simply can't handle the game, then release a game only playable for Switch 2 and later models, etc. etc. Kinda like what the New 3DS was, but in theory would grow a significantly larger collection of titles only runnable on later models of the Switch as time goes on and newer models are more widely adopted, as opposed to only having a handful and then bowing out like the New 3DS.

The appeal of the core concept of the Switch isn't about to disappear anytime soon, people will always want to play at home and on the go. So at the very least it makes sense for the next system to be a sequel to the Switch and incorporate the core hybrid concept if nothing else.

Followed by the Ultra Switch.

I guess this is the BOTW 2 rumors that was supposed to go up against the PS5 Xbox Holiday launch

Announcing a new title set 100 years before The Legend of #Zelda: Breath of the Wild, presented by the developers from Nintendo and KOEI Tecmo Games.

Launching in November 20

Latest scoop

IGN reporting

“Nintendo is reportedly asking developers to make 4K-ready games, which could suggest that a new, higher-resolution console is on the way”

who releases a new console after holidays? Just after Christmas. Legit fake.

Covid killed Santa. Lockdown is the new Christmas for toys

DLSS 2.0 does all the heavy lifting, a new Switch 2 with 4k capabilities may still be slower than a PS4 Pro in terms of raw power.

Which means most new games will still work on the current gen Switch at a lower resolution, lower detail and perhaps half the framerate.

I'm just thinking of the homebrew scene if the new Switch eventually gets hacked, the possibility to run older games at higher framerate, max detail and higher resolution sounds like a dream.

The 4K Switch sounded stupid, but this is somehow even more ridiculous. lol

 

[Pokemon_Tea_Sea_Jee]

whatever they release it has to come with corrected controllers.

 

[godreborn]

I hope it doesn't come for a while, because I bought an animal crossing switch. I was lucky enough to get one by preordering. it wouldn't even be a year old then. lol however, if it does come out and it's bc, I'll probably buy it once the demand dies down.

Drift fix? I liked the Joy-Cons although the Pro Controller was a lot better, imo.

Just a shame it has digital triggers.

Yes.
Drift needed to have gone years ago.

That shows that Nintendo has very little QC. PlayStation and Xbox controllers for the most part are solidly built.

I own a DS4 controller to play it on my PS3 and it's awesome.

Because they have been using the same analog stick which has been used since 20 years ago. Just look how small the Joycon one is. I'm all for new inventions, but the problem might be not even fixable given how the joycon works.
