Re: Nintendo Switch 2: Everything We Know About The New Console

@MrCarlos46 there had been several debates and discussions focusing on the size of a chip following one of the motherboard leaks. Actually it was the empty space where the chip would be. The debate is if it would be 8nm or 5nm, with people adamant that the 8nm would stunt the system and make Nintendo lower clock speeds during handheld play so the battery wouldn’t drain. And other people said because it’s custom architecture that it could be the larger (but less efficient) chip and still run just fine.

It’s me being tongue in cheek because the debate and discussion about it was the talk of the town for a few days during the last leak. To the point it was almost apocalyptic and people said the system would be worthless, out dated junk without a 5nm. It got pretty wild.

Re: Nintendo: Switch 2's Backwards Compatibility Feature Is The "Best Direction" For Consumers

I have over 800 switch games. This having backwards compatibility has guaranteed I’ll be buying it because I can move forward while still working on my backlog. Plus if it plays them enhanced in anyway, it’s a nice bonus. Very very smart move by Nintendo. Especially with the digital age where it can help encourage digital purchases knowing they aren’t “dead” after a console is finished.

Re: Talking Point: Everyone Else Is Busy Revealing Switch 2 - What Gives, Nintendo?

@AstroTheGamosian I won’t bet money on this prediction of mine, but I believe the switch 2 will come out very quickly after the reveal. Like revealed in January and then between March and July it’s released. The one rumor I truly believe out of all the others is that they’ve spent the last two years manufacturing them so that they can release millions right away without any stock shortages.

I could absolutely be wrong and maybe they’ll wait til Nov for the holiday rush, but I just have a feeling they want to do a quick reveal and release. Like how Apple does.

@Keman While the form is mainly the same (just a bit bigger) I think the precedent set by the cell phone industry help will Nintendo out. A switch 2 is something I think even the most casual of consumer would be able to understand because they’ve already seen it with their iPhones and Galaxys over the last decade.
