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 10 months 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 10 months ago
That’s probably only referring to games like labo and ring fit
Carighan@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Yeah it’s going to be the same as PS4 on PS5. The disclaimer is on every game.
dustyData@lemmy.world 10 months 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 10 months 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!
runner_g@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
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 10 months ago
Hmmm what about the Sega MASTER system?
Zorque@lemmy.world 10 months 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
runner_g@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
I’d forgotten about the Sega Saturn. My only Sega console was the Genesis.
caut_R@lemmy.world 10 months 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 10 months ago
I guess they really did learn from the WiiU!
YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Don’t worry, I’m reading your sarcasm.
