Nintendo Switch 2 - For the Soytendo consoomers to speculate about the successor to the Switch, recently announced for 2025.

[TrainWreckWatcher]

The Steam Deck APU isn't even close to powerful enough to emulate a Switch 2.

"But what about steam deck 2?"
We all know its comin...

 

[PlugsPugs]

No. A stupid person decided to staple receipts to a box containing consumer electronics. Don't blame the manufacturer.
People like you are the reason hammers are sold with warning labels.

The fact that a staple could even pierce the screen is a joke. For 500 bucks, that screen damn well better be some kind of glass or hardened plastic at the least.
My cell phone was 300 bucks and has tempered glass.

I don't think that was done with a standard office stapler. It looks like they used a staple gun.

The screen is made of glass, by the way. I think the staples damaged the protective screen that is installed on top of the glass.

I look forward to someone taking apart a Joycon 2 and telling us if it looks the same as the Joycon 1 and will be shit, or if it really is a new design and looks like it isn't shit.

Following up on this:

Same shit, different system. Nintendo apparently didn't redesign shit, same shit design as the Switch 1. Nintendo truly hates its own customers.

A fucking game store is not going to have a industrial Home Depot stapler, and if they do, they most certainly aren't going to use it on something as flimsy as a game console box

I know GameStop workers are retarded, but come the fuck on.

I didn't say "industrial stapler"; I said "staple gun". But, yeah, a store that hangs up banners and posters and other relatively heavy shit would never have a staple gun. Mongoloid.

Ok jackass, since you're committed to this, let me clue you in on why you're fucking wrong

Do you know how DEEP a staple for a staple gun is compared to regular staples? Let me show you


And to compare, these are what regular staples look like


Now idk about you, but I believe if anyone from GameStop were going to staple ANYTHING, I believe they would use the latter rather than the former.

>using staples to hang up posters
>when regular tape could easily do the job
Also last I checked, majority of those posters are hung on the display windows to show people outside walking by. Good luck getting a stapler through those.

Also also...
>banners and posters
<heavy shit
and you call ME the mongoloid

I think the minimum-wage grunt working at a Gamestop who needs to staple something to something else is going to use whatever's already at hand (or that their boss hands them). They'll give zero shits.

Also, everybody uses those big staple guns. They're much more convenient for attaching things to walls than a regular pain-in-the-ass office stapler.

Finally, we're all faggot retard jackasses for even bickering about this in the first place. We should each kill ourselves immediately.

ETA: So this thing's been out all day now. Has anybody actually played with the bloody thing and posted impressions/reviews/etc.?

Playing cyberpunk for the first time on it and having a pretty good time, console feels good and looks good, and cyberpunk is running at a pretty stable 30fps on quality mode handheld

Wtf you're not supposed to be having fun.

 

[EscapeVorkuta]

No, retard, I was trying to understand WTF you are talking about. You don't bother to explain why you believe it's "custom designed for faggots" and whoever the hell this Larry Dale person is or why anyone should give a shit about them. IDK why the fuck you are so hostile when all I did was ask WTF you were talking about since you provided absolutely no explanation or clarification for your statement.

A simple Google check with the name I provided would have sufficed.

It seems everyone forgot BrentalFloss' advice from almost 12 years ago.

 

[Enig]

Hey, uh, people that were talking about the Decklikes being better? You sure about any of that, this is looking like it's doing better day one without any updates or anything, where's the better x86 performance at guys? You guys told me the Switch 2 would be emulated on a Steam Deck, this is uh, this is looking like it's more powerful. You guys sure you weren't hitting boutique jenkem there?

Looks like gamestop employees are retarded and have damaged the screen for some pre orders

There’s been an update on the issue, apparently it’s a bit of a clusterfuck:

• This issue was only reported at a single location in Staten Island, NY but I wouldn’t be surprised if other locations have similar issues.
• The store’s AC system was broken at the time of preparing preorders and it was hot and humid in the store.
• Said issues prevented the usual tape and stickers from sticking to the Switch 2 boxes which lead to the store manager telling employees to just staple it to the box in order to save time (they had to process over 100 preorders).

I can only assume that everyone at that location is going to get fired over this disaster.

Friend of mine got his with just a sticker on it.

That’s how mine was identified as well, the employees would also give you a free reusable bag depending on the amount of product you picked up.

Just unboxed it! I was not expecting this thing to be Big Chungus sized, so far pretty
underwhelming:

I'm also glad everything is round now for some reason. So I don't have to worry about my eyes getting poked.

 

[Hooked on phobics]

So....Nintendo just full on faggotry or is this temporary for pride month?



FLAT OUT miis that aren't men OR women.

Please note, they USED to be male and female.

was notified of this from side scrollers video

Its about on par for steamdeck now. Steamdeck has thicker (more comfortable) handles, but still similar dimensions

EDIT :

Switch 2 torture test.

EDIT 2 : NGL, the joycons look POTENTIALLY really fucking cool for steam deck input. NGL if they get working with steam input, I might buy them JUST for that, as they could function POTENTIALLY as
-mouse
-gyro input for shooters
-1 massive controller.
-2 tiny controllers

This ASSUMES nintendo aren't going to be faggots about not letting it work though

I mean, its got more powerful internals. Do you people really buy consoles based on external looks?

 

[Quijibo69]

I just played my first game on it, it's an F-Zero clone I paid 14 bucks for. Graphically it's like playing a PS5 but with Jizz on the screen and it was on graphic mode.

Steam Input supports Switch (1) Pro Controller and JoyCons (together and separate) so you will likely get your wish, so long as you can pair them to your computer. Don't have them to test.
