Ordered physical version on switch, couldn't resist. That boxart alone was enough lol 😆 but Salamander 3 tipped me over. I have Salamander 2 on the Saturn which is brilliant. And many other Gradius/Salamander ports across other systems. But I like the rewind features on this new collection.
I have a Switch & Steam deck. Both brilliant, sick of these comparisons. I haven't got a switch 2 yet, but I will get one & I'm sure I'll love it just as much.
Unfortunately with consumers demanding more & more each gen. Games are so big physical storage is becoming less sustainable. Hey & I'm not defending digital. I'm the biggest fan of physical media. But like I said the gamers always want more & more then moan when ***** like this happens. Unfortunately games aren't in Megabytes anymore.
@Galaxy2IsTheGOAT totally agree, but some will never get there heads around Nintendo's success. It's always been about amazing games, something Nintendo delivers in spades.
Not great in my opinion, the cheesy American actors playing Mario kart was cringe. Games definitely not exciting. Except for Metroid, Donkey Kong, Mario kart.
It's about time Nintendo lifted the lid on the new system. But I'm more excited to see what new games are launching. Hopefully a new fully fledged 3D Mario & Donkey Kong reveal. But I won't hold my breath.
Totally agree, Nintendo's strategy is slowly winning. The other two just keep chasing tech gen after gen. Tech means nothing anymore, also the industry can't sustain the forever growing costs of tech & software. Nintendo play there own game with forever amazing games. Put "gameplay" ahead of anything else.
I love Nintendo & Sony, but without a doubt the biggest mistake Nintendo made was not giving the Snes the cd add on. The system would of had even more potential.
@Danrenfroe2016 yes & no, I just feel that an upgrade to switch would be rather boring. Basically a bigger screen with bigger specs. I have Steam Deck, so basically switch 2 will be basically the same. I personally miss Nintendos innovations with something different to everything else. But I get what your saying.

Re: Rumour: Supposed 'Switch 2' Design Photos And Specs Surface Online
I was reading yesterday the rumours of a dual screen design. That's what I'm hoping for. Clam style design like DS/3DS would be amazing.
