Just start making shit up man. Hell, make an alt account then link your post to reddit. Some gaming outlet is bound to think it's real.

Who's uncle ?

Uncle is the name people have given to the various market insiders that post online about their thoughts on Nintendo systems. For example, there was a guy called Factory Uncle who was a factory worker who put out a lot of good information and informed speculation about the Switch and its revisions.

I feel like gta vi won't be in the reveal even if it's coming to switch 2, I still feel like nintendo want to keep a family friendly image and on one of their most viewed videos I don't think they want to include a game like gta

Wat. The first look for Switch was to make sure it was cool and not a kiddie family console. The family stuff came way later. They targeted core gamers and young adults really hard.


Not a single kid in sight.

Btw, it’s still like that for E3 2017 trailers.


2018:


Even Mario Party had a bunch of single 20s something playing the game. Old Nintendo would’ve had grandpa and garandma up in there.

Itβ€˜s very clear what demo they were targeting. Needless to say, it worked.

Yeah but I don't think they will show a game where you are beating up people in the street and running over people. Gta may be a bit much for a nintendo teaser

I'm going to have to disagree, I do agree that GTAVI probably won't be in the reveal video. However, it's not because they want to keep a family-friendly image; it's because Rockstar, like Nintendo, will announce GTAVI when they are ready to.

If Rockstar said to Nintendo they wanted to put GTAVI in the reveal trailer, Nintendo would say yes in a heartbeat. Why? Because GTA is so massive and GTAVI is so hyped that it would further boost the Switch 2 hype, it would also show that the Switch 2 can get huge third-party titles like the PS5 and Series X does.

Not saying that i think it would make sense for GTA to show up but... they did prominently show Skyrim in the original Switch's reveal trailer.
I know I'm kinda comparing apples to oranges here but like... come on man.

Holy crap, nearly 20 pages in one day?! Think about it. Over the past 2 years of this thread's life, 1% of its content was generated on this single day in history. Just imagine how nuts it'll be if we get a screenshot photograph (I need to stop spending so much time on computers lol) from a funcle on an assembly line. Go on lads, just leak it already!
 
Nobody is ordering Nintendo's new hardware for retail right now, and people in the position to do so (when its existence is confirmed to them, at the same time as the rest of us) don't have advance information about features.

A whole pile of them, in case the job doesn't get done in the first throw.

I don't know what you mean, Skyrim is very well-known for being a light-hearted adventure where nothing bloody ever happens. Nope, no open displays of (or options to partake in) cannibalism or anything, nopey-nope nope, perish the thought of such a thing. /s, obvs

okay so I'm a bit confused, are you saying I'm the one in the glass house throwing stones? or that the people in that reddit thread are?

The Nintendo Switch's reveal was the first announcement that I was there for. I only got into gaming in 2010 when I was 7, so I was extremely late to the whole "Oh wow, Mario is cool" trend that y'all seem to be obsessed with. When I found out about the Switch after a few years of following gaming news, that was genuinely the most I've ever hyper fixated on something.

I mistyped and meant to say younger- but don't worry, it's not by much. πŸ˜…

I just assumed you were older because you seem a little more put together than myself, hahaha. Thank you for the compliments.

I mean, if they were to show GTA it would probably just be some segments where you're in a generic looking gun fight similar to how they made sure to choose the most bland possible gameplay for Skyrim.

The split pad pro is the one on the far right. Compact is much nicer

I actually like the Split Pad Compact. I had the pro but sold it. If I can have the Compact with wireless, mount, and joycon functionalities, I will but almost immediately.

Ummm so for people like me who get excited over the smallest smell of a discussion about the switch 2 like allot of lurkers on here and members, is there something really happening in the next week, or are we just playing. lol
Click to expand...
There is nothing specifically pointing to the next week or two. There is speculation surrounding the upcoming investor briefing (EDIT: and general timeline symmetry, I guess), but it's just that, speculation.

There are some pretty big non-specific Soonβ„’ vibes from some recent research, but it's nothing we can attach any hard dates to. We can see some evidence that preparations may be at a fairly late stage, but we have no way of knowing when Nintendo will pull the trigger, so to speak. It could be tomorrow, it could be early next year, we just don't know.

I'm Japanese and Yes, the buyer uncle said that he's confident that it'll have the BC.
But for obvious reasons he is not able to order the product as of now. Nobody is.
I guess that he ordered some product related both of switch 1 and switch 2, and that made him to believe that switch 2 has the BC.
