IS THAT the case, i stand corrected, the eshop image makes it less appealing than it should be with the obvious riff on Nate.As i know green hell is more like a survival game on the jungle

I can definitely see smaller studios and Indira dev giving away free patches on the Switch 2.Green Hell is already on Nintendo Switch and other consoles it didn't get a native next gen version. I doubt they'll release a separate successor version, so maybe a next gen 4k patch? Switch version of Green Hell looks and runs very much fine.
And not getting Shenmue 3 is arguably a winWell, we did get Earthbound
I can't believe Mario's 35th anniversary was 4 years ago.expecting a very super mario focused first year since it is the 40th anniversary, 3d Mario, Mario Kart, a new sports game, and maybe Mario party if there isn't one this fall
in fact I bet we'll even get a Mario Direct like in 2020
I don't think we'll get Mario Kart AND Mario Sports in the first year, as they're both multi-player and it's very obvious which will be more popular. Let Mario Kart have the spotlight for 2025 and have Sports/Party in 2026.expecting a very super mario focused first year since it is the 40th anniversary, 3d Mario, Mario Kart, a new sports game, and maybe Mario party if there isn't one this fall

Unless there is a technical limitation my feeling is any Microsoft games studios game that go multiplat will be on Switch 2. PS5 is the reason Microsoft went on a buying spree they would be happy to deny it games if between xbox/switch/pc the ROI makes sense.It better be, it'll be the only console version with gyro. Yes, despite the PS4/5 having a gyroscope, as far as I know DOOM/Eternal does not have motion aiming on those versions.
Gyroscopes are sadly under-utilised on the PS5 and the games that has them, it’s a mixed bag.It better be, it'll be the only console version with gyro. Yes, despite the PS4/5 having a gyroscope, as far as I know DOOM/Eternal does not have motion aiming on those versions.

I know it was sarcasmI like how extremely reactive people are to obvious sarcasm.
Only initially, and then it will be worse then ever since third party will go down and only do service and mobile games! /sLet’s be serious, third party support will be better than it ever has for Nintendo.
They've been saying "mobile gaming will take off someday" for years. Let's be real, who among ourselves here would pay $40 or $50 for a mobile game?Only initially, and then it will be worse then ever since third party will go down and only do service and mobile games! /s
It's the whole "I need my phone to do phone things, and it cannot do that if most of the battery is going to playing 30 minutes of some AAA game" aspect for me.They've been saying "mobile gaming will take off someday" for years. Let's be real, who among ourselves here would pay $40 or $50 for a mobile game?
I definitely won't. Controls on mobile phone, bleh.
I was mocking that aspect and the doomerism about the AAA space, hence the /s.They've been saying "mobile gaming will take off someday" for years. Let's be real, who among ourselves here would pay $40 or $50 for a mobile game?

The mobile space itself will get a recalibration, there are simply to many free to play games out there for it to be sustainable.
Every franchise needs it's own free to play gatcha/card collection game.
Exactly. While Western third parties will also be a big part of the Switch 2, at least initially, there will inevitably be some titles at the tippy-top that will skip the system. But Japanese developers? They will all be supporting the Switch 2. Full stop. The Switch 1 is now the best selling system of all time in Japan, none of these companies are gonna want to miss out this time.Forgot to mention the entirety of Sega, Capcom and square Enix supporting the system.
Since the biggest supporter of the Switch 2, will be Japanese developers.
Obvious sarcasm aside, the Switch has the best third party support for any Nintendo system since the SNES. Even though it was woefully underpowered the system certainly punched up its weight class in terms of that. With the Switch 2 being far more comparable to the current gen systems than the Switch 1 was compared to the PS4/XB1 and with other factors like the Switch 2 being a successor to what will end up being the best selling system of all time and large swaths of the industry on fire, third parties are gonna want to be there at the start of the system's life instead of playing catch up or never really being there at all like with the Switch 1.

Square Enix: One of the bigger Switch publishers, though most of their output on the system were their smaller scale games with the occasional miracle port like Dragon Quest XI or Nier Automata. But now Square has said they will be "aggressively" targeting the Switch 2, including their AAA titles. Aside from potential existing deals (like FF7R3), I'd expect most if not all of Square's titles to be on the Switch 2. Again, if you asked me this last month I would've said Square's output on the Switch 2 would probably be similar to the Switch 1, but now they themselves said they're going all in with the system.
Capcom: This one is interesting. Unlike several other companies we don't really have any potential leaks or statements from the company that clue us in on where Capcom stands in regards to Switch 2 support. While not a confirmation in any way, NateDrake did say that Monster Hunter Wilds would have no problem running on the Switch 2. So that gives us a good idea that Capcom's upcoming titles can run on the Switch 2, it's just a matter of if they want to put the time into porting them. It helps that Capcom primarily develops their games now for the PC, so they make these games to being highly scalable. We'll still have to see what their initial output looks like or some statement from the company to give us an indication but I wouldn't be surprised if most of their recent catalogue and upcoming titles are on the Switch 2.
Koei Tecmo: Not much to say here, outside of the Team Ninja games pretty much all their titles were on the Switch. Expect mostly the same with the Switch 2, except now their bigger titles will absolutely be able to run on the system since even their bigger titles I wouldn't describe as big budget AAA. They'll have some games that skip the system because of deals made with other console makers (like with Rise of the Ronin), but most of their titles will be on the Switch 2.
Bandai Namco: Probably the biggest question mark regarding Japanese third party support. Their Switch support was all over the place, and Harada made some asinine comments about putting certain titles on a Nintendo system. But as I mentioned before, the industry is on fire and Namco isn't exempt, having just canceled 5 titles. With profit margins so razor thin right now you'd think they'd find any way to make some additional money by getting their heads out their asses and putting most of their games on the Switch 2, but honestly I'm still 50/50 on it. Could go either way.
Konami: lol. lmao even.
Sega: I'm gonna make a prediction right now and say that Sega and Atlus will be the biggest supporters of the Switch 2. While late to the Switch 1, they've accumulated a solid lineup over time. Certain titles like Sonic, Shin Megami Tensei, Super Monkey Ball and Puyo Puyo will naturally be on the system. But now we got indications from leakers like Midori that titles such as Persona 3 Reload, Persona 6, Metaphor, and the 5 reboots are all coming to the system, which isn't surprising at this point but still nice to hear it. The only potential outliers are the rumored Virtua Fighter and Like a Dragon/RGG in general. Like with Harada, certain key figures at RGG have made some head ass statements in the past about putting LAD on Nintendo systems. But honestly I expect Sega to tell them tough shit you're putting these games on the Switch 2 regardless. Sega's been adamant for years now that their strategy for expanding the popularity of titles like LAD and Persona is through simultaneous worldwide releases and releasing them on everything that can run them. So I would be shocked if we didn't see LAD on Switch 2. Honestly given how even Sega's biggest titles barely qualify as "AAA" I wouldn't be surprised if most of their games moving forward are developed with the Switch 2 as a base.
And obviously outside the big companies ones such as NIS, Falcom, Spike Chunsoft, Arcsys, etc. will have all of their games on the Switch 2.
Konami will be there with their best selling games, just like on SwitchKonami: lol. lmao even.
I don’t think you’ll see Nintendo knocking on anyone’s door….I think you’ll see everyone knocking on Nintendo’s door lol.Joking aside, if Nintendo is facing the search for third party support for Switch 2 the same way they did for the current Switch, initial support should be more than fine. We were told by people in the know back in 2016/2017 that Nintendo was essentially courting everyone, but because of the Wii U's failure and the hybrid idea being an unproven concept, most companies were hesitant.
That's not the case anymore; if Nintendo knocks at your door and goes "Hey, wanna be first in line to the follow-up console to the third (so far) best-selling system of all time?" and your reaction is "Nah, fam, I'm good"... yeah, that's entirely on you.
maybe reveal the console in january/february, will avoid a impact on Switch sales.I don't envy the marketing team for arduous task of figuring out when to start marketing a console that's releasing after the holiday season without totally killing sales for the holiday season. Revealing it in September is probably the play, though.
Also the best way to safe the holiday sales is by giving the Switch a price cut and bundle them with couple of games.Furukawa seemed to already thrown Switch holiday under the bus when he acknowledged Drake.
Nomaybe reveal the console in january/february, will avoid a impact on Switch sales.

Keep in mind that they’ll not only reveal the console, but probably also a new 3D Mario game. Have you ever seen them announcing a game of that caliber one month before it releases?maybe reveal the console in january/february, will avoid a impact on Switch sales.
thank you. This will not make people suddenly stop buying Switches for their children this holiday. It may even be positive for them, creating hype around Nintendo and the Switch family of systems.This gotta wait for holiday to end is so overblown. They got to reveal the system. They got it going into mass production. They’ll do whatever they need with the switch to make it as successful this holiday, but they have to do a formal announcement for Switch 2 without worrying about the holidays

I’m curious seeing which games will be showcased in the reveal trailer, since I’m expecting couple of surprises and also cod to be in there.I think the reveal we'll get this year will be just like the original Switch; a trailer showing the system, reveal of the name, few games running on it and that's it. No details on specs, price or anything else. All that they'll wait until closer to launch to talk about it... I don't know if they'll hold a presentation like the did for the Switch in January 2017 though.
