Nintendo Switch 2

The big thing with Square now is to release on all platforms at once. Just crazy the first trailer in four years was on a Nintendo direct.

Exactly but even though they won’t be exclusive maybe they’re going to be leaning towards Nintendo for advertising. Kingdom Hearts being here like this is absolutely insane.

Summer Games Fest was just a preview of what the rest of the Switch 2’s life will look like. With hardware prices the way they’re heading developers will want most of their games to be on as many platforms as possible so the PS6 and XBOX Helix being on the horizon won’t matter much. PS5 and XBOX Series X|S will continue to get games for years to come and moves like this will bring those games to the Switch 2 as well. This is a very good thing for everyone that already owns one or at least gets one soon.

Bought my wife a Switch 2 for her birthday and we have been playing Mario Kart World. The soundtrack to this is incredible. WOW.

If you have Switch Online they’re in the process of adding the full soundtrack to the Nintendo Music app so you can listen to it while driving.

Honestly the Switch 2 by the end of this year for me seems like it would be a must buy

With Zelda, Fire Emblem, Spatoon, Wii Sports, along with all the ports and games from last year...its a pretty solid console

Man, that would've been such an incredible surprise announcement for this past June's Direct. I'm really tired of all of these leaks. Just deflates the hype before it even gets going.

Anyways, huge if true. Glad to hear that Prime 4 underperforming isn't an absolute death sentence for the series.

It was never going to be. If I recall correctly Nintendo has stated a few times that even though it’s not a big seller they view it as important to keep around.

It's been a poorly kept secret that MercurySteam started development on a new 2D Metroid shortly after the release of Dread, so I don't think Prime's performance would've effected this in any case, especially since Dread did so well.
