From Switch moving on will be forward compatible. You purchase a switch 2 all your switch games come forward with you. It was one of the major goals for the NX. Only 13 million people bought a Wiiu, there's almost 120 million Switch owners. That's 107 million people who never had access to play Wiiu games. So to them that's new games and they'll also be getting BOTW a few months after If having a TV out is all that's needed for the hybrid features to be ready then I guess Deck TV experience is complete as is then?

So over 120 million people wants Nintendo exclusives and that's the only reason they bought a Switch? Damn...Nintendo is in an even better position than I thought... Lol As far as deck and their goals for hybrid functionality. You're projecting your goals onto valve. From everything I've heard from Valve, their goals are to provide a handheld PC experience. Do you have something that says otherwise from them? In a round about way you proved the point I was making earlier with the differentiating factors between the two. You just said that deck will app

Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger praised the CHIPS and Science Act "President Joe Biden traveled to Ohio on Friday to celebrate the groundbreaking of Intel’s new $20 billion semiconductor plant, one of the first domestic chip-making facilities to come out of the recently passed CHIPS and Science Act." "Intel’s Friday groundbreaking ceremony kicked off construction of what the company has called the “largest silicon manufacturing location on the planet.” It’s part of Intel’s plans to invest $100 billion in Ohio over the next 10 years. The company has said that the project could

Damage controlling? Lol Why would I damage control the Switch need to exist? Switch is already an established brand that's about to be the best selling system ever. Deck is the one still in beta. Im responding to you saying they'll be competing for the same market of gamers. I was simply showing you the differentiation between the two as far as use cases for potential customers. Deck isn't serving a vast majority of the users that Switch will serve based on the Switch being more than just a handheld. With that said... I never said the deck won't be mass ma

And what about if you want to play it docked, are those games available on another system? For that use case, a deck isn't needed. Whereas with Switch with the exclusives you need to purchase the hardware to regardless if you want to use it as a console or a handheld. For the people who don't play portables they will just simply game on PC because it has all the games that runs on deck. The use case of users that won't use portable mode to begin with have no use for deck. From the last user stats Nintendo released basically 50% of the users use it primar

Switch is not strictly a portable though... Its a hybrid. It functions as both. That's another huge value proposition of the device. Nintendo knocked out the park day one with with the ease of use to switch between modes and all the kinks that needed to ne worked out to make that possible at launch.

27 years ago today, the greatest console of all time was released

SNES games are still masterpieces to this day and can be played just as is. PSX was great for its time. Those games don't hold up now. That's what seperates the two. Both are best of the best though. -
All video game hardware competes with each other for the consumer dollars. Those mobile PCs unless they turn into actual consoles where it just works for all games.. No tinkering etc.. If not will stay non mass market devices. NINTENDO, Sony and MS will remain the big 3 in the gaming hardware space for the foreseeable future. Valve is contender # 100 in the "Handheld" space they’ll have success within the PC crowd beyond that.. Nah.

You jumped in a conversation where sugarhigh is saying that the next switch will be a low end device for kids ala GBA/DS but you're asking me why im saying it has to be powerful enough to run some current gen ports? Lol because the guy im talking with expects it not to even support that. Nothing says Nintendo is pushing for more 3rd party support? You must have missed the entire point of Switch. Besides unifying Nintendo's development under one system another major goal was to have a system that could run current engines, current APIs and current tools.. which would

That's your hopes and dreams mixed in with delusion. Nintendo isn't making non hybrid mobile systems anymore.. So it definitely won't be low end like DS was when it launched. And your delusion is that the handheld PCs will come close to the mass market of the Switch 2. Switch 2 will easily outsell all of them by a mile...just like the OG Switch is currently doing
-
Anyway... Let's end it here... Well at least for me. I think the next Switch will be more powerful than last gen (PS4/X1) , but obviously not as powerful as the current gen systems (PS5/Xbox S/X) Which was the same position Switch 1 launched at... More powerful than last gen at the time (PS360).... But less powerful than PS4 and X1. Sugarhigh thinks otherwise, that it will even be weaker than that. Remij is straddling the fence. Time will tell.
-
It has to be powerful enough to run those ports to begin with..not all Switch ports were trash. There's a ton of great current gen ports (t the time PS4/X1) and multi plats on the Switch. For the Switch 2 to continue that it would have to be powerful enough to run general multi plats and ports of a certain percentage of current gen games. Obviously it won't be able to run everything but to even be able to run those games it will have to be a significant jump over OG Switch and around deck level or slightly more.

I prefaced my last y point by saying it's a hybrid and explained the Hybrid concept (playing full console games on a handheld and on a TV)... So when I then say for it to work.. What do you think that means? Lol For the HYBRID concept to work it has to be powerful enough to play console games... Meaning multi-platform console games as well. That's the entire selling point of the Switch. They're not going to throw that away and basically make a 3DS level system where you have to make a totally different game than what's available on other systems.
