GBA's launch was abysmal. I should know, I bought one at launch.

Tony Hawk Pro Skater (Activision)
Dodge Ball Advance (Atlus)
Fire Pro Wrestling (BAM)
Top Gear GT Championship (Kemco)
Tweety and the Magic Jewel (Kemco)

Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2 (Midway)
ChuChu Rocket! (Sega)
Rayman (Ubi Soft)


Mario Advance was just mario 2 all-stars. only game i had for a while, until the good stuff started to drop...but my previous library of GB/C titles held it down, since they were BC. I didn't really care/like the other launch titles.


no comment on if it'll match/do better than the switch's success...but my main point was, if it's BC, early adopters (and a good amount of core) will cop if it has BC, and no real new gimmicks attached.

besides, gimmicks can backfire, look at the wii-u.

The games may not have been all time classic but they clearly showed why GBA was worth the money.

Nintendo gotta have something cooking for launch.

People have already decided this is gonna be a great success, but i don’t think so.

Nintendo consoles tend to go up and down.

Switch was held up by Wii U games at launch.

Unless they got some bangers hidden away somewhere ready for this year, i don’t see people upgrading to switch 2 just to play the same games they already have on switch.

As long as the thing is backwards compatible it'll sell itself. People will buy a switch 2 just to play normal switch games with better performance.

I disagree. Wii U had wii games and still flopped.

Nintendo fans aren’t the type to run out and buy hardware for better graphics.

Agree

It’ll still sell but they’ll need something more indeed than just updated graphics this time.

Launching with a new Donkey Kong Country mainline game might be enough but who knows

But GTA6 on Switch 2 exclusive and not on current switch?

 

[daze23]

Rumor is it will release with a new 3D Mario

 

[detach]

3DS need a real successor. Foldable, fit in your pocket.

My switch never left it's dock

If it's crossgen with OG Switch, bad idea.

Make it Switch 2 only

 

[Rembrandt]

People talking a $400 price point which sounds kinda crazy imo

 

[daze23]

Make it Switch 2 only

given their history with Twilight Princess and BOTW, I would expect it to be crossgen

 

[Fatboi1]

New 3D Mario

 

[MrLogic]

Are they going to have an upscaler

1080p switch games on 4k tv was




I had to just play handheld mode

 

[CM_Burns]

This will be big with toddlers

I'll probably cop...haven't played a Nintendo system since Gamecube

If it's backward compatible, you are going to have a lot of good games to get through.

I want another 3D Mario at launch. Make it open world like that Bowser's Fury game, too.

You’ll be copping allot of
Remasters then
