Re: Nintendo Switch System Update 20.0.0 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

@xzacutor That's my doubt exactly. When they announced that Switch 2 would be backwards compatible I was so relieved. But after the presentation, it looks like they will only be compatible with a system transfer, which is horrendous. I mean, what happens if you delete a game? Is it lost forever?! My Switch games occupy a 512Gb memory card, how am I supposed to transfer all of them to a 256Gb storage on the Switch 2?

I really hope I'm wrong though, because that would make me NOT get a Switch 2.

Re: Nintendo Is Discontinuing Gold Points, One Of The Switch's Best Incentives

That's messed up, what a shame...

It'd be great if they would come up with something like the Microsoft Rewards program, but it doesn't seem quite likely. I used MS rewards to buy Switch gift cards and got some great games for free, but unfortunately the store I used to buy them from changed some of their policies and now I can't do it anymore. Now with gold points going down too, there is not much incentive for me to buy Switch games anymore except huge discounts, which are quite rare. Sad day...

Re: Nintendo Lowers Its Hardware Forecast As Switch Sales Slow To A Crawl

I'm guessing the Switch 2 will be revealed at the end of the fiscal year, by the last week of March with its release scheduled around September.

As for the original Switch, I want it to surpass the PS2 (as we all do). I hope it goes on sale during the holiday season with new bundles and a pretty strong marketing. Of course, it will still keep selling even after the release of its successor, but this holiday will be the last big opportunity to make the most of it.

Re: Rumour: Nintendo Is Targeting A 2024 Release For The Switch Successor

@Nintendencies Dude, my Switch library is totally digital. If Nintendo didn't include digital games on backwards compatibility, I would simply not sell my current Switch and probably wouldn't buy the new console for a few good years (or ever).

I really, really hope they add full backwards compatibility on the new system.

Re: Japan's Switch Sales In June Were Reportedly A Record High For The Console

@arabiansanchez I agree that Nintendo doesn't need to prove anything, but I would love to see Sony lose their crown. Of course this would depend on Nintendo's next moves. Switch is still strong now, but when the numbers start dropping they could cut its price and release a Nintendo Selects line of products and maybe postpone the unveiling of the next gen console. Is that what Nintendo wants though? I honestly think it's not...
