I can't help feeling the price is do with it. In the current climate for handheld and yes fantastic as it is. The people across the world just don't have the cash.
I personally would love to buy but have other priorities and so Switch 2 will have to wait until maybe next year.
I hope for the UK Market that this will be a cheaper version like Switch 1 Lite was. On side not are developers now abandoning Switch 1 has see little of the releases for Switch 2 on 1 and even reviews of released games. Now being ignored
In two minds yes 2K Sports need to do better. However there also working on ageing hardware. On the other hand they have no competition EA Sports does not release its NBA Basketball or even Madden on Switch. And sadly in this day age other companies don't make sports titles.
Good don't make the mistake Sony did with PS Vita. The one thing that killed PS Vita alongside its silly memory cards was the lack of being able to play your PSP 3000 Games.
Nintendo need to launch Switch 2 for Christmas 2024. With Microsoft Rumoured to be Launching a XBOX Handheld and Valve a Updated Steam Deck. Nintendo are going to be left behind. The more they hang on even they said Jan 15th 2025 release at least it be better than the current speculation
Switch has been fantastic hit for Nintendo. But the longer they delay in successor the worse it be. Switch is struggling now to play the modern games coming out.
My fear for Switch is that it will be a legacy edition like they did before . If people remember EA Release a Brillant First FIFA then versions afterwards were legacy editions.
@anoyonmus Zero competition for EA. Konami never did release Pro Evolution or E-Football on Switch. I bet if Konami had EA would have stepped up to the plate.
One thing I hate about monopolies is that no competition.
@Charles-Stewart-1st EA released one decent version. And the rest were Legacy . Yes they sold but only cause parents did not the difference in versions. And to keep their children silent.
Well its fantastic news. However remember EA released one great version and the rest afterwards were Legacy Editions. Let's wait and see if EA does the same again.
Not surprised at FIFA on PC and Console as its very good. Wonder what sales are like on FIFA switch. I bet high because parents who don't know video games can't tell the difference.
@PINKSTER007 Yes because parents will buy for there own Children. At least EA has been Honest this time in telling certain features are for PC and Next Gen.
Normally EA gives information and you will think its the same on every platform.
Why does EA release games on Nintendo. It never does a good job. Every time Nintendo release a new Console. EA promises nearly EA game on Nintendo hardware. Then after the first release its legacy or does not come to Nintendo Consoles.
The Sony PS Vita was the same. First FIFA great then legacy afterwards.
Its a shame Konami before EFootball never released its version on Switch or 2K never made an Soccer(Football) game.

Re: Rollercoaster Tycoon Classic Is Making Its Way To Switch Next Month
Am always puzzled on how these type of games that were made for computer fair on consoles.
Re: Review: EA Sports FC 25 (Switch) - The New Best Football Game On Switch
@Arkay Maybe will be on Switch 2. I doubt this late stage of Switch 1 it would come. The same with Madden
Re: Review: EA Sports FC 25 (Switch) - The New Best Football Game On Switch
Ultimate Team will pick on Switch. Once people realise its not a legacy game. As for 30fps amazing on old Hardware. Switch 2 will maybe see higher fps
Re: Mini Review: NBA 2K25 (Switch) - Sound The Buzzer And Call For A Sub, This Baller's Washed
@Kiivi Agree Nintendo need to release Switch 2 soon even early next year. Switch is great console. But seriously showing its age.

Re: Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection Update 3 Out Now On Switch, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
@Laxeybobby I would like to reviewers revisit these games now. They had patches to see if there better
Re: Soapbox: Has Nintendo Set A Precedent That 'Switch 2' Can't Hope To Match?
Switch has been fantastic hit for Nintendo. But the longer they delay in successor the worse it be. Switch is struggling now to play the modern games coming out.
Re: EA Sports FC 25's Reveal Trailer Is Coming Home Tomorrow
My fear for Switch is that it will be a legacy edition like they did before . If people remember EA Release a Brillant First FIFA then versions afterwards were legacy editions.
History repeats?
Re: Review: Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection (Switch) - Riddled With Issues, This Is
Will developers stop releasing games on any platform that riddled with bugs. I get that you will always get bugs but the amount we get now is insane.
Surely releasing a quality title is better than releasing a bug version.
Re: Nintendo Switch "Successor" Announcement Is Coming "This Fiscal Year"
To be honest Nintendo should say Switch 2 will be released Dec 2n 2024. And that has full backward compatibility
Re: Talking Point: Will Nintendo Wring One More Holiday From Switch Before Revealing New Hardware?
I just wish Nintendo would stop messing about and announce Switch 2. And get the hype but the Switch is now old and is struggling to run modern games.
Re: Mini Review: Batman: Arkham Knight (Switch) - One Of The Worst Ports We've Ever Played
If i remember the PC version was a mess too. Until the patched it. Switch will be the same i suspect.
Re: Review: EA Sports FC 24 - The Best Football Game On Any Nintendo System, Finally
Question I wonder though if this will the start of new release on switch or will next year be a legacy edition again. Like last time
Re: Soapbox: 'Switch 2' Doesn't Really Need Backwards Compatibility
Am saying yes for reason. If you have collection of games. Its nice to play on new system
Re: Multiple Job Losses Expected At Team17 As It Splits With CEO Michael Pattison
Should make a new Alien Breed
Re: EA Sports FC 24 Switch Frame Rate & Resolution Revealed
Let's wait and see for the reviews rather than the negativity. Yes its port of PS4 and Xbox one. But EA has said it will be on this level.
Switch users cannot expect PC/PS5 as their more powerful.
Re: Review: Red Dead Redemption - A Fine But No-Frills Switch Port, For A Fistful Of Dollars
Nice port and glad to see it done right. Maybe when Nintendo releases Switch 2 with hopefully better Hardware then RDR2 may come
Re: Review: AEW: Fight Forever - The Spirit Of WWF No Mercy Lives On In The Ring
Given the ageing Hardware developers have done their best. Great for wrestling fans.

Re: EA Splits "EA Entertainment" And "EA Sports" In Massive Company Restructure
EA don't make Nintendo games. Except for FIFA the Remake.
Re: UK Charts: Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Continue To Fall As FIFA 23 Maintains The Crown
Not surprised at FIFA on PC and Console as its very good. Wonder what sales are like on FIFA switch. I bet high because parents who don't know video games can't tell the difference.
Re: Microsoft Enters "10-Year Commitment To Bring Call Of Duty To Nintendo"
@NinjaNicky Nintendo could release do there own version. But it does not fit with Nintendo ethos of Mario.
Gobsmacked they have finally given in and allowed Call of Duty. I want to see Splinter cell, Rainbow Six and even Grand Theft Auto
Re: Microsoft Enters "10-Year Commitment To Bring Call Of Duty To Nintendo"
Great now we need Nintendo to release new more powerful Hardware to run it.
Re: Review: NBA 2K23 - Michael Jordan Challenge Is A Slam Dunk In Another Solid Switch Port
2K sports at least tries. It begs the Question why EA Sports can't do the same.
They say sales are low but there only low as people get fed up of being treated like second rate gamers.
Gameplay and modes are more important than graphics
Re: Review: FIFA 23 - The Final Whistle Blows On A Legacy Of Disappointment

Re: Nintendo Direct Livestreams Return To Nintendo's New York Store
I hope to see new games but not Mario related. I like Mario but Mario games are becoming tiresome. And we need to see new IP from Nintendo.
I also hope we hear more about the Switch successor as Nintendo really need to do address this .
Re: Talking Point: As Switch Hardware Sales Slow, How Long Can Nintendo Delay 'Switch 2'?
Nintendo are going to have to launch Switch 2 soon. The console hardware is getting old and developers are already struggling with this.
I personally would like to see Switch 2 as handheld with backward compatibility for games etc.
However i would like to see a Switch Pro in the form of a traditional console. Same as XBOX Series S.
Re: 'Switch Pro' Trends On Social Media After Massive Nvidia Leak Reignites Speculation
As long as its backwards compatibility with games. Then its cool.
Re: Sorry, Switch Owners Won't Be Getting Cross-Play For FIFA 23
Nintendo could solve the Problem and Make a football. There rich company could even buy a FIFA pro licence. So there game has all the names.
Nintendo would make a lot of money. Plus hire people form Konami Pro Evolution soccer series. AKA Seabass
