I'm waiting for kirby air riders and if that turns out to have no content or some other big issues I likely just won't buy a switch 2. None of the other games announced interest me

>>147495
Switch 2 is gonna be a disaster on the global market. Just buy a steamdeck and get better and cheaper games.

I might get one when Donkey Kong comes out

>>147502
Why not both?
You're not poor, are you?
Deck won't be able to emulate Switch 2, and I want Kirby, Metroid, and hopefully Ring Fit 2.

>>147553

fuck man what can they do make switch two sound like a reasonable purchase. Only way they can top smash ultimate is an actual subspace emissary 2 and somehow include really wanted fighters that haven't already appeared in ultimate.
Personally I might be interested in maybe some remasters of old fire emblems but I can't really think of anything big to make this worth it

Sad but true

Everything Sakurai makes is gold, shut your whore mouth
>glorified dlc for already existing games
Not glorified DLC, literal DLC, that's what the Kirby and Mario Party upgrade packs are.
>fucking hyrule warriors sequel for one of the first games for a new console
I don't get it either. Who asked for that?
>ONE truly new game
Donkey Kong, I assume?
>fuck man what can they do make switch two sound like a reasonable purchase.
As a dad, having a second console in the house that can play Switch games will be great. I just hope the Switch 1 can use the Switch 2 dock for video out so I don't need two eyesore toasters plugged into my television at any given timem
>Only way they can top smash ultimate is an actual subspace emissary 2 and somehow include really wanted fighters that haven't already appeared in ultimate.
I'd pay for SSE2 as a "Switch 2 version of Smash Ultimate" DLC pack.
>Personally I might be interested in maybe some remasters of old fire emblems but I can't really think of anything big to make this worth it
Hope for Geneology/Thracia remakes (separate game obv) springs eternal.
Echoes is still the best post-Radiant Dawn FE fe game.

But otherwise, I'm hoping for Ring Fit 2 (given how well it sold, it seems basically guaranteed)

Even if I had the money I wouldn't buy it, it's a nice upgrade but I don't see it as a must have.

>>147553
I'm not poor, but it's gonna be the same when I bought the Switch. Play one or two games and then it sits gathering dust, never to be played again.

I think Nintendo just priced me out. I am not paying +80€ for a game. At least give people a Gamepass option if you are pricegourge the retards this hard.
Fuck me we don't even get Players Choice anymore and there is paid online because normalfaggots can never push back against the most simple things.
Donkey Kong looks like the typical "Oh we made a tech demo gimmick, lets pput a random IP on it" game but fucking OOOPEEEN WOOORRRLDDD ugh.
Kirby air Ride was fucking garbage and barely a game and no one bought it. 100% got overhyped by melee tourneyfags playing it stoned ina hotel room between buttsex.
Mario Kart is Mario Kart and basically guaranteed to carry this shit to 10 million within a handful of months but I am personally just not feeling the spark as before. Plus the fucking paid online.
As long as Team Asano releases their new games on PC day 1 I guess I will just not get a Switch 2. Although playing on the shitter while grinding through a dungeon and then switching to the big screen for the boss was always kino.

>>147685
Nintendo's falling into hubris again, I agree.
They deserve another Wii U-tier failure now, and will make consumer-friendly decisions again if/when that happens, but whether that's the Switch 2 or the next console, I can't say.

Mario Kart is basically Sonic now, it's so weird that it converged into Sonic Frontiers but it seems natural, kinda like the open world exploration at fast speed.

>>147718
Weird comparison. There is barely anything that remains untouched from getting sucked into the grey mass that is the ubisoft open world formular.

>>147719
It's very similar desu, a high speed character that has trouble turning, railgrinding is prominent in this game same with wall running and even a small jump to bump on enemies.

>>147782
Yeah getting lots of Boss Baby vibes from it.

>>147495
I expect Smash Bros to just be an Ultimate port with a third Fighter's Pass or even Melee HD.

Ain't nobody with a brain spending this much money on this garbage.

Everybody with a brain is spending this much money on this new console

>>147854

Pretty sure that will never happen. not even a VC release.

oof, raised prices on all accessories.
I wonder if I'll get a preorder.

>>147917
Why not? It would basically be like Kirby Forgotten Land, a paid performance update+DLC, and would get around renegotiating copyright shit.

>>147919
Forgot to quote what I was talking about, Melee just can't happen, the community has too much weight and the only thing they like is Melee, they don't like an spiritual successor, let alone a straight sequel, not even Melee HD, they just want Melee, the one they've been playing for over 20 years and Nintendo knows this, everyone else wouldn't mind playing a modern Smash.

>>147920
>not even Melee HD, they just want Melee
Also slightly wrong. The smelee autists are playing a modified version because the game is shit and flawed at the very core. They just are too deep into theur autistic eceleb wanking and decades of playing 5 characters. They like a specific idea of melee which is held up by the community like a reality marble mass delusion.

>>147935
And Nintendo knows there's no way to satisfy them, only a small portion of the userbase could tolerate a re-release, the only way I can see it happen is if they release Smash(64) first, just so they could cushion the backlash, a sudden Melee release would give everyone the wrong idea.

Nintendo Switch 2


-You are paying full price for 8 year old games.
-You are paying extra for update patches.
-You are paying more than launch price for DLSS upscaled 8 year old games.
-You are paying monthly for online gameplay, and 1990's my mother's fax machine.
-You are paying a extra monthly on top of the first monthly subscription for Always Online Game Rentals (You Own Nothing)
-You are paying $80 for a stick drift ridden imitation mouse with the worst ergonomics in the world.
-You are paying extra for a 480p web cam with no OIS, or SIS, no zoom or wide angle lenses.
-You are paying for a Switch 1 emulator that is locked by DRM inside the Switch 2. (LMAO of course they DMCA'd Ryujinx it was free and had native 4k texture and 120fps mod support without DLSS garbage).
-You are paying for all the DLC you already paid for in your 8 year old games again.
-You will pay for another Switch 2 (OLED) in a year or two as soon as the LCD version sales slow down, and you will pay even more then, than you do now.

And Nintendo calls me a pirate. I couldn't steal this much from people if I tried.

>>147949
>steal
As scummy as it is, they are running a business, you make it seem like they are evil for selling stuff others want to buy.
I see it as it is, a nameless corporation that found a rentable business model making videogames, it doesn't matter how fun the games are,Nintendo isn't your friend, but they aren't your enemies for wanting your money either.
I am pretty sure everyone is aware they are overpaying, it's obvious when you look around and see what other companies are aggressively marketing, yet Nintendo makes good shit, expensive, synthetic, often sterile but good shit.

I do actually like th NSO ROM rental. I do not want to replay those old games over and over. I just want to play through them while spamming savestates if needed and then move on with my life.
Still could give the retards the option to pay 10 buckeroos to "own" a SNES ROM if they are really that desperate and of course it being bound to paid online just makes it trash by default no matter what

>>148010
I do argue that both n64 and gamecube had a way larger userbase than installbase because of all the 4 player multiplayer games. Throw the OG Xbox in there as well for good measure.

>>148021
Compared to PS1 numbers, absolutely.

I mean it's mad to think Ocarina of Time is supposed to be this huge masterpiece everyone played, yet it 'only' sold 7-8 million copies globally.

Meanwhile half the child population in the United States has played Roblox, or something.

>>148049
>everyone played
That's millenials trying to rewrite history, at that time videogames were only experienced by a selected few, the vast majority lived normal lifes, maybe watching a few cartoons while ostracizing nerds.

Ocarina of Time was the greatest game at the time, and 8 millions are a lot for such small installbase, but many never even heard of it until the whole retro nostalgia crap started, that's when suddenly everyone had a childhood full of cartoons and videogames, every single kid had the exact same childhood.

I know quite a few that went over this transformation, when I met them I constantly brought up the only thing I ever knew, videogames,and none of them even had heard of most games I played, "gamer" was an insult, now their rooms are full of toys and games, it seems they are trying to fill a void that never existed

>>148058

>Ocarina of Time was the greatest game at the time
not evcen close, it released in 1998.Half-Life released in 1998. As did everythig from
Spyro the Dragon to Starcraft and Resident Evil two. A nintoddler need to believe that zelda yadda because my zelda pedo fetish crap but at that point the N64 was a pants on head retarded cartridge system for kids (thus ninpedos) while the real stuff was happening on optical disc on PC aand Sony.

>>148120
These are all very differnt games and OoT had by far the most influence on gamedesign of those and still has to this day. And Spyro is fucking furry shovelware, fuck you for putting that turd next to OoT and Starcraft like it had any impact and influence on anything besides your diaper fetish.

As much as I enjoyed the first Switch, I don't think I would have owned it if I hadn't received one as a birthday gift. The raised prices on pretty much everything have made killed almost any interest I could have had for the new one.

It would be one thing if it was $100 cheaper, but at at it's current price it costs roughly as much as a lot of lower-end handheld PCs. At this point I would rather just get a Steam Deck or something like it to use for my collection of old ROMs.

>>147495
>Smash Bros
I don't play Hackurai sl*p. I rather wait for Nintendo to make a fighter that isn't towards children and the sweatiest retard.
Also for the love of God, stop making Zelda musous. I feel bad because Zeldafags aren't going to get a proper HW sequel at this rate.

>>147496
>No content
On the fault of Hackurai wanking to his own work if that happens. HAL isn't even involved with the game lmao.

>Spyro
It's pretty, that's all there's too it. Mario 64 remains king, even faggot Sonic Adventure 2 is more influentual than Spyro. Fucking Mad Space led to Mario Galaxy, the most zoomer-wanked Mario game ever. Sonic led to DKC, and DKC led to Crash, and Crash led to DK64. Spyro influence jackshit.
also, the series proceeded to get raped by Bobby and the furries at Goys for 'Zebub (Toys for Bob) making P2W expensive kiddyware.
>pedo this pedo that
The Sonybro forget his peers jacked it to Ape Escape 3, Disgaya, and Ellie from TLoU. The PSP/V userbase alone had a bigger pedo problem than Nintendo had and that was before Smash and the existence of YouTube.
Unless you're some /ss/elf-inserting roneryfag, OoT barely had any pedo elements.

I probably won't get it at launch because there's no clear need to or launch titles that are really grabbing me.

But I'll likely get it soon after. I've owned ever nintendo console since the SNES.

Best Buy says preorders open at midnight EDT.
Should I try it or hope my Nintendo waiting list number gets called in early May?

>>148177
We'll see I guess. The only games I've played that sakurai has directed are the original kirby and kid icarus uprising. I liked both even if there were some strange quirks so I'm cautiously optimistic

>>148295
You are probably the only man alive who has played Kid Icarus Uprising, but not and Smash Bros.

>>148308
Maybe. Truthfully I played like 10 minutes at a friend's house once and I didn't like the way it controlled at all so I never bought a smash game and lost all interest in them. I have played a lot of kirby games though but only one of the sakurai ones

I fully expect a NS2 price hike by Christmas.

Firstly the Kagerou you stole from me was a psychological patient, secondly the fan story involving Satori trying to prove Koichans existence should be told one line at a time in every NA SA PAL united instruction booklet. Thirdly, some booklets should say "We didn't feel like it find a friend who has one." Four now that you've decided that Nintendo japan uses your alphabet, all American ports of not American made games are to use alternate pallets.
Wario's Pad.
Blue overworld replaced with stormcloud patterns.

You must understand that though a Doctor Whomst've episode leading into Dracula being a long time resident of the Mario Brothers apartment in Brooklyn would be keen asf qwerty commander we cannot ascertain in advance that Tennet and Ecklestein would sign on with the cinema time lord. You may as well have Iggy and Spike show up some episodes! You may as well name drop Roy and dear precious Ludwig. The Wario brothers would cause children to notice the Kid Icarus background! Having a younger hipper Marios show up when the guys want to sign off for a decade is almost communism!
