Well, they are actually just updating it to use an LA Knight clip for Wrestlemania.My sources tell me they'll be incorporating a "Yeah..." feature, instead.

Man, I remember you on the IGN forums during the Gamecube days, you must be older than Father Time !Well this should now keep me from making another video on something already found here lol.

There's a small chance they're going with a process that's not 4nm or 8 nm. That's harder to nail down.
4.5 inches in height is smaller than the Wii U Gamepad's 5.3, which was also a device meant to be held for long periods of time and even carried around for off-TV play. I would say weight distribution plays a larger factor. The original Steam Deck could get uncomfortably heavy, to the extent where the OLED update made a significant difference despite having the same XY dimensions.
Is there any real basis to the notion that the Switch is 'massive' for kids? It's something I read a lot on forums but not reflected in real life (sales or anecdotally). I see kids play on their parents' iPads with the flimsiest grips and the Switch 2 will not be that large. I've handed the Switch to let a literal toddler cousin play Sonic 2 and heard no fuss.
The Switch logo is literally the joy-cons. All of the trailers and commercials for every hardware and software so far have the click and joy-cons at the beginning.
How would having no joy-cons even work? They would literally need to do an entire rebranding.
In full agreement. For the limited amount of time I'd like to play handheld, Steam Deck is much more comfortable.The Steam Deck is the most comfortable of the bunch and I'm tired of pretending it isn't.

This picture is what was leaked in 2016 (or early 2017?) and so it's often used today when talking about the SDEV, but it is a prototype. The final SDEV has Joy-con rails.This is the HAT-001 Switch 1 devkit. No joy-con rails. It's a creature.
Source.
We have no idea what the Switch 2 devkits look like and their various iterations, especially if they're being shipped to devs over the course of a year, correct me if I'm wrong. It's possible some could resemble the above, others could have bolted on controls, others could resemble the final retail unit.

Seems like March will be a busy month then. Both in terms of the initial announcement, but also with devs probably having prepped their own announcements/marketing materials for the subsequent weeks and for GDC.
So maybe initial announcement the week of the 11th, leading into GDC the following week? That would put a solid month between it and the February direct as well.
The only thing that gives me pause is that Princes Peach Showtime isn't out until March 22nd. Maybe they wait until after that game is released?
YEEEEESSSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRRI can corroborate independently on Nate's claim of March as a reveal month for Switch 2
Good luck Famiboards servers
Please, have mercy. I beg you.
maybe a famiboards donation goal for a server upgrade before march?The last Famiboard admin trying to unplug the servers just as the cooling rack breaks:

Finally the first part of the eternal discussion is reaching to an end in a month or so.
Hopefully this next HW fulfills all wishes and hopes of people around here.
I don't think they will reveal an exact release date but probably the release month
all i have to say is
2 more laps to go.
Yeah late 2016 right before the official Switch reveal.This picture is what was leaked in 2016 (or early 2017?) and so it's often used today when talking about the SDEV, but it is a prototype. The final SDEV has Joy-con rails.
SDEV is so cuteYeah late 2016 right before the official Switch reveal.
I definitely remember the confusion as people wondered where the controllers would go.
It’s actually happening? Let’s go!!!!!!!!!!!I can corroborate independently on Nate's claim of March as a reveal month for Switch 2
HYPEI can corroborate independently on Nate's claim of March as a reveal month for Switch 2
We could also put it "The last time they shifted focus from a split control method from one console gen to the next, it went incredibly horribly for them."The last time they kept the same branding moving from one console gen to the next, it didn’t go too well for them
A belated welcome to the madhouse! It's all downhill from here so enjoy the ride hahaWell this should now keep me from making another video on something already found here lol.
Pro-ConsThere’s no reason to presume there won’t be Joy Con or a Joy Con successor unless:
- Someone has direct knowledge that they won’t be part of the new hardware
- They’ve received information they weren’t part of the current development kits.
With the second instance, it’s likely kits would ship with a pro controller and the new controls kept secret until the reveal.
The last time they kept the same branding moving from one console gen to the next, it didn’t go too well for them
Nintendo has been able to keep their branding and have a successful successor. The biggest problem with the Wii U was the lack of high quality system sellers to get people's foot in the door until Zelda finally dropped. I don't see that being an issue this time around.-Nintendo launches a new system
-New system name only has one character differentiating it from the previous system
-At a glance the system does not look too different from the previous system
-Lackluster launch lineup
-Nintendo has to address poor sales momentum within the first 12 months
-System is the Nintendo 3DS
-Sold 75 million hardware units
-pic unrelated
I turn 40 on March 7th. That would be a nice little birthday gift from Nintendo.
You know, the things is, even after the happening in March, this thread isn't done. It's not like Nintendo will share any deep dive tech details. ^^
Turning 40 soon club high five
Can I donate to shut the forum down for all of March instead?maybe a famiboards donation goal for a server upgrade before march?
One would think they would have learned not to fall for the same traps from Switch 1 days.- They’ve received information they weren’t part of the current development kits.
With the second instance, it’s likely kits would ship with a standard control method and the new controls kept secret until the reveal.

The power button on my launch switch recently broke and I bought an OLED recently as well.If this thing is revealed in march, this will be my 5th streak of broken consoles before a new hardware is revealed.
3ds to New 3ds, ps3 to ps3 slim, ps4 to pro, switch to oled. Every single time they broke and I bought a new one, the next thing comes out.
The fuc….
February
More seriously, I have some significant doubts that the initial reveal itself would leak unless it's basically a full Direct. Seems more likely that what would leak would be a follow up presentation to detail things more.

I've gotten the chance to play my cousin's Steam Deck for a couple of hours, and I've got to agree. Initially, I remember people being put off by how it looked, but man, maybe it's because I'm old at this point the thing, weight and all feels so much more comfortable than the flatness of the Switch. Buttons are huge, and the control sticks feel like actual high quality control sticks, it's great.The Steam Deck is the most comfortable of the bunch and I'm tired of pretending it isn't.
On another note, the increase length of the hypothetical Switch 2 joycon is a really nice thing. Probably will make it nicer to hold in the hands overall, I always found the Switch a bit to short in terms of it's height, so that would be a nice improvement imo.
GDC ends March 22st, so that won't work.
Yeah late 2016 right before the official Switch reveal.
I definitely remember the confusion as people wondered where the controllers would go.
Pro-Cons
-Bigger
-Weightier
-Better ergonomics
-Better build quality
-Drift is a thing of the past

MVG:Also, just been listening to Nate's podcast, and I'm going to be honest: John is a much better co-host than MVG. Just generally more energetic, more articulated. Much more enjoyable.
Turns out the real Switch 2 was the Wii U we bought along the way.Famiboards…
Over the last weeks I’ve taken all information with regards to the Switch 2 and fed it into the YolkFolk super computer in the YolkFolk cave.
I’ve asked for it to reveal exactly what the final Switch 2 will look like with no Joy Cons, a bulkier look & feel, better sticks & buttons and a camera.
Here is the result:
