lol I'd love to see what happened once they all started getting the yellow light of death/ just outright dyingThere was this supercomputer used by the US Air Force made up of 1760 original fat model PS3s since they could be hacked to run Linux
This fellow so foolish
No way, if they reach their goal of 15 millions units this FY the Switch will be at 140 millions at the end of march 2024, and they would need to sell at least 16 millions in the next FY to beat the PS2 which is not going to happen with the Switch 2 out.
Why you’re still allowed to post in here is beyond me…
This wasn't a hack, it was an intentional feature (that Sony later removed).There was this supercomputer used by the US Air Force made up of 1760 original fat model PS3s since they could be hacked to run Linux
Which ironically led to it being jailbroken quicker since programmers wanted to have their Linux support through OtherOS back.
Yeah, moral of the story is that the easiest way to keep "jailbreaks" at bay is to provide sufficient sideloading support.
Xbox One remains unhacked because what is there to gain from it when they have a developer mode.
the fact we still have to humor such insane statements is beyond me, but in what world is "turning the resolution way down because was can salvage it with up-sampling and the screen size will hide most artifacts" inferior to utterly destroying the content of the visuals for very little gain in perceivable image quality? if we were talking about docked mode, i would see your point to some extent... but we were not, if a game has to resort to 360p pre DLSS in docked mode i highly doubt it would be even considered for a port regardless of settings.
Motion blur isn‘t really a necessary feature.
If ppl are playing those games without issue, what exactly would make those "vital" or "extremely important" (the terms you used to describe the exclusions)?
1. 8" isnt that significantly larger than 7", i have no clue what you mean by "extremely" here, DLSS UP looks mediocre a 15", doesnt really hit "utterly destroyed" on there, on an 8" screen it should look flat out acceptable, far more acceptable than raw 540p on switch 1
If sony announces a event to unveil it, nintendo should plan a event for the same day for switch 2 so they could overshadow it lol, more eyes would be on the new console rather than the mid gen refresh
Well done Nintendo. This is why I loved Nintendo so much. Already a fan since I'm purchased green GameBoy Pocket 20+ years agoHere's a screenshot of a comment someone made on the other website:
. Let's them cook what ever for a Switch 2You would think they would lax a little after the Nvidia leak. Most of the info has been out there for over a year.
yeah let’s start console wars
Maybe LinkedIn users wised up and stopped referencing Nintendo stuff in their accounts
...or Doctre81 got vistited by ninjas.
PS5 Pro is said to be releasing in 2024 same year as the Switch sucessor, with twice the power of the PS5. So Nintendo really need to do something special for the tv part of their next system in 2024!
I've been a Nintendo fan for 33 years since I was 8 year's old, love NintendoWell done Nintendo. This is why I loved Nintendo so much. Already a fan since I'm purchased green GameBoy Pocket 20+ years ago
But you can't just say let them cook whatever for the Switch sucessor! As we want the Switch sucessor to actually do well sales wise and also be a good system deliver the goods.
He mentioned on twitter his pc got stolen, so no new videos for a while.
Never implied that.
This assessment is 100% correct, and anyone who ever worked with Nintendo in any capacity knows this. To give one example that is at least semi-public (I think?), people who got a review code for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate about five years back were not allowed to even discuss the fact that they received one. They had to set their Switch profiles to private, not talk about the fact that they played it until the NDA said so, and even when the reviews came out, what they were allowed to show was Draconian. Just to give a general idea of how much this company cares about leaks.Here's a screenshot of a comment someone made on the other website:
That’s not being aggressive nor would it be the best of both worlds. The two console strategy would alienate more people & there are clear reasons why they left that strategy behind.
Not being anywhere near as good has not stopped people from buying those versions when released on the system.
Yes it would be and it would be the best of both worlds as the big portion of Nintendo fans who prefer handheld gaming would buy the more powerful hybrid handheld/console or Switch Lite handheld equivalent.
It's Nintendo's excellent first party games that have made the Switch a success. Made it the 3rd highest hardware sales of any gaming system! A hybrid system makes it impossible to do good AAA 3rd party ports. Hence very poor AAA 3rd party ports of Hogwarts Legacy, Batman Arkham Trilogy etc on the Switch.
It was meant to be
I've been a Nintendo fan for 33 years since I was 8 year's old, love Nintendo
If Nintendo only release a more powerful hybrid/handheld Switch sucessor as it looks like. I probably will only buy the equivalent of the Switch Lite portable version for handheld gaming. Will be a great 1080p handheld system.
Graphics aren't everything but AAA 3rd party games on a 2 teraflops hybrid system docked to the tv. Aren't going to be anywhere near as good as AAA 3rd party games on the PS5 or upcoming PS5 Pro. Déjà Vu like the Switch and AAA 3rd party games being average at best in docked mode because of a underpowered system.
Still look forward of course to amazing upcoming Nintendo exclusives Metroid Prime 4, new 3D Mario, new Mario Kart etc. And hope the Switch sucessor for Nintendo is a success
whoa, that is awful. I’m glad he is safe, but damn.
This reads like working from a predetermined conclusion and working backwards from there. There isn't any measure of people being predominantly handheld. Nor is there any measure of people buying games solely for first party. First party is a big chunk, but third party games are still 50% of software sales.
The Switch 2 will sell well for a new system, but I don't think that would stop the Switch from selling at most 10 million units, next fiscal year. Also, as crazy as this sounds, I expect at most 10 million units for the Switch by the end of this quarter.
Yes a Japanese company using Korean music because they’re definitely best buds like urge United States and Russia!What is your dream Switch 2 trailer? :
- Panning shot of a street during sunset
- Close up shot of vet
- We see the man from the original Switch trailer holding his dog as it dies in his arms, a striking allegory for the original V1 Switch
- Distraught, the man walks home, entering to find the new Nintendo system on his bed, with a letter from his girlfriend, wishing him a happy birthday
- After staring at the box for a few seconds, we see the man walking downstairs and setting up the new console
- Laying on the couch, he starts up the system with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of The Kingdom. As he plays, the same familiar jingle from many years prior begins to play. Suddenly, he flicks the new scroll wheels with the video cutting to red
- Nintendo Switch 2 logo appears
- We then see the man playing the new Super Mario 4D World, an open world Mario game with Time control (made possible through using the scroll wheels) as the new mechanic. We see a smile on his face, flashing back to the dog who once sat on his dog couch.
- Dynamite by BTS starts in the background as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles break into the man's house through his glass door, beating him to a pulp, gagging and dragging the man off screen with muffled audible screaming in the background
- "Nintendo Switch 2!"LIGHT IT UP LIKE DYNAMITE, WOOOOOAAAAAOOOOHHH!!!!
the differences is largely going to be clock speeds rather than IPC or thread count. Drake will still be limited by the fact that it's a tablet and can't cool a high clocked cpu with a high clocked gpu. how this would manifest in game performance, we don't know yet because there just aren't any tests that scales AMD cpus low or any games running on ARM
To add onto this point, I expect the Switch to continue to sell well for a few more years, even if it's a slow decline. I'm still an avid believer of the "smooth transition" mantra, which would involve cross-gen releases and a few smaller third-party releases during the Switch's twilight years. While the Switch is definitely showing its age, I don't think it'll lose steam the same way the Wii and DS did, people will undoubtedly still be buying them as a more affordable option, compared to the inevitably pricier successor. That's not even getting into a potential price drop by the time a lite model for the successor rolls around, but I may be getting ahead of myself. I can see the Switch going past 150 units within the next 3 years.
Nintendo has left the AAA gaming market, they could not compete with Sony and Microsoft on those terms and have wisely chosen another strategy to remain competitive. Back in the days when they tried to release home consoles on the same terms as Sony and Microsoft they always had worse third party support and could not compete in getting the best AAA games to their system, so their consoles lost out to the competition. But Nintendo handheld systems on the other hand always remained competitive and saw off Sony's attempt to win the handheld market, that is why Nintendo switched to the hybrid model and will remain there. If Nintendo released a console to rival the PS5 it would sell low numbers as before and would be utterly trounced by the PS5, it would have much worse third party support than either PS5 or Xbox series X/S.
