Plus it’s an actual straight upgrade, what with backwards compatibility and all.
Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 finally officially revealed
caut_R@lemmy.world 4 days agoThey 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.

Partial backwards compatibility, based on their asterisk, at least.
rbits@lemm.ee 3 days ago
That’s probably only referring to games like labo and ring fit
Carighan@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Yeah it’s going to be the same as PS4 on PS5. The disclaimer is on every game.
dustyData@lemmy.world 3 days ago
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.
PlexSheep@infosec.pub 3 days ago
Well they did just slap a 3 onto the DS

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

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
Thassodar@lemm.ee 4 days ago
Hmmm what about the Sega MASTER system?
Zorque@lemmy.world 3 days ago
To be fair, it wasn’t especially popular with anyone.

I think you’d be surprised, Hitler The Dolphin was one of the best selling games of the era

I’d forgotten about the Sega Saturn. My only Sega console was the Genesis.
caut_R@lemmy.world 4 days ago
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
smeg@feddit.uk 4 days ago
I guess they really did learn from the WiiU!
YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world 4 days ago
Don’t worry, I’m reading your sarcasm.
