Nintendo Switch 2

Nintendo is expecting 15 million Switch 2 sales this year and around 10 million for the OG Switch. It would be great to see the dethroning of the PS2.

As long as there’s Switch 2 Editions I’m good.

Wasn't planning on pre-ordering, but I ended up getting the email from Nintendo and placed my order. My excuse is the usual "don't know how much it'll cost later/if it'll be available". Sigh.

Yeah especially when they reiterated during their earnings call that they’re going to raise the price if they need to. Good call.

Got the Nintendo email as well and ordered the NS2 + MKW bundle and was shocked at how easy it was. Really wanted to finance with Best Buy, but will opt to buy a pro controller there instead. Really really happy to finally score!

This should’ve been obvious to anyone that saw the reveals. I’m surprised they even have to clarify this lol.

I’ve been seeing this thrown around for a while but now that there seems to be more solid rumor on it I’m posting it. It seems that the only card size Nintendo is offering currently is the 64GB card which goes to explain why even small third party games like Bravely Default are on a Game Key Card.

On Switch 1 Nintendo offered 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB. I think I also heard about a 1GB card but I’m not sure.

Apparently the 64gb card costs companies $16, vs the $1-2 of PS5 and XSX discs. So yeah, that’s why all of this is happening. Smaller sizes are meant to be available, but won’t be for some time due to component shortages.

Over 4 hours of Retro Studios’ cancelled game Harmony. I haven’t watched all of it yet but I eventually will and will give my thoughts then.

So I didn’t finish it before it got taken down but from what I saw it could’ve been a decent adventure game though I wasn’t sold on the singing.

A small thing but a good improvement. Not sure why this never existed on the original but oh well.

I’m waiting for this company to make a Switch 2 case as I really love the one I have from them for the OG.
