"Some" could mean 80% of games not working on S2.
Now the real question: Will 60 fps be the standard? Will there be free online play/cloud storage? If not and it's still paid; will ALL first-party games have 100% cloud storage? Remember the retardation that was the fucking mind gymnastics to "backup" your AC:NH island?

id imagine its shit like 1-2 switch or anything that requires complex accessories
at a baseline id imagine it would be as powerful as a PS4 Pro (maybe a base PS5 at best but I doubt it) no reason 60fps shouldnt be the standard at least with Nintendos first-party games and no they already had a taste of paid online with the Switch 1, no way do they just revert to free online (especially with Mario Kart 9 looking like the primary launch title), regardless im extremely happy with my Gaming PC at the moment so I doubt ill be getting it

I know this is basically just a switch upgrade, but man talk about basic ass presentation reveal.
The reveal for the Switch back in 2016 was GOATed and for good reason seeing how much of an embarassment the Wii U was for a generation.

The issue (to rational people) is that Nintendo sells consoles first, games second. The PS3 x 360 war was about console exclusives (and paid monthly sub to some). Nintendo literally announced nothing and already people are gonna preorder it. Nintendo should make a new game for 90% of their IPs every single console generation but no, they make 1 in 5 and then quit making games and let third-party indies keep it alive.
Reminder that AC:NH was "4-5 character models at most run around on a big cylinder". It was 30 fps, and I remember it lagging. I can't imagine they'll leap from that to smooth 60 fps without the involvement of plenty of AI modules and upscaling and shit, just to hit 60 fps lol
Also barely any games shown.

Probably games like House of the Dead which used IR to aim I believe.
I'm going to be cautiously optimistic, but i can't help but feel that same excitement i felt when the Wii came out. That childlike excitement feels refreshing in this timeline.

thats the issue, without exclusives consoles just became a graphical fidelity measuring contest in 2020 and now that publishers are slowly realizing that Graphics literally cannot get any better then where they are now without ballooning development costs theres now no reasons for Consoles to really exist except as cheaper PC alternatives, Nintendo doesn't have this problem as bad as they at least still have Mario,Mario Kart,and Zelda, but most other IPs collect dust and thats going to be their main problem

All you need is a very good art style to have a game be ageless. Killer7 on PC still looks fantastic because of the simplicity of the art.

That was the most lazy presentation they ever did for such an important reveal.
They put out way more effort on the freaking alarm clock.

I doubt Nintendo is going to test every shovel ware game to see if they work, guess it will be like PS5 BC where all the big games work and will only be a handful of games that have issues or don't work which can get patched by the publisher.

Wow, Nintendo managed to restrain their autism, I was expecting a 3rd Joycon that you control with your butt cheeks. It looks like the dead end innovation race is finally resting.

I promise to get excited once they reveal games that aren't remakes or ports.

It was exactly what most people expected it to be, a slightly bigger more powerful switch.

Are they going to Osborne themselves? I suspect publishers will make switch games for quite awhile as it’ll work on the 2 and the install base of the switch is massive.

I get NEW 3DS vibes from this. I wonder how many "switch 2 exclusive games" will actually exist..
Certain Switch games meaning the cartridge will magically stop working the moment a $80 "remastered" verison of the switch game gets released for switch 2. I would not put it past nintendo

Watched the Metroid Prime 4: Beyond trailer for the first time after the Switch 2 reveal. I'd reckon they held off on releasing MP4 for the Switch 2 release because they knew a game that is functionally an FPS at Switch 1's graphical tier wasn't going to do well. The in-game shots look too high-poly for S1.
