  They wanna be very clear that this is their best-selling console ever but better, I would‘ve been surprised if they didn‘t just slap a 2 on it. There‘s so much riding on this for them.

    I don’t think Nintendo have ever done a Console 2 before though. I was hoping for Super Switch but as ever Nintendo absolutely refuse to be predictable!

      I’m sure it was considered, but a console nicknamed SS was probably ruled out.

        I don’t think the Sega Saturn was particularly popular with neonazis

      Yeah, I get that, I was just trying to say that the above is probably their reasoning in my mind. They‘re scared shitless to fuck the transition up, calling it „The Stuff You Guys Loved 2.0“ is the lowest risk move.

      I like your Super Switch though lol

        I guess they really did learn from the WiiU!

    Plus it’s an actual straight upgrade, what with backwards compatibility and all.

    • Zorque@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Partial backwards compatibility, based on their asterisk, at least.

      source

      • rbits@lemm.ee ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        That’s probably only referring to games like labo and ring fit

    I think that’s still the DS. The Switch got close, but didn’t beat it, and now that attention is on the Switch2, it probably won’t.

    Well they did just slap a 3 onto the DS

    • lka1988@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      And then called the second gen 3DS the “New 3DS”.

  They got scared after what happened with the Wii U.

  source

  • CidVicious@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    The new 3ds was very confusing too

    source

    • ZC3rr0r@lemmy.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Yeah, everyone always brings up the Wii U but the whole “New” 3DS situation was even less clear if you ask me

      source

      • ApollosArrow@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Then you add in the 2DS which came out after the 3DS.

  It occurred to me that this was the first time Nintendo has ever not used some new weird naming convention for a successor console. Just 2.
