Yes, that's a good breakdown, but my only point is that such a card would work just fine if used in a Switch 1, yet Nintendo doesn't tick the box next to that family of systems, showing that the ticks may also be inaccurate for the Switch 2 dock.

Looking at the website, I'm not convinced yet.
I don't see it spelled out in text, I just see the checkbox system that states this is a Switch 2 accessory and not a Switch 1 accessory. It could have been simply copypasted from, say, the Joy-Con 2 page without a second thought.

For instance, the new MicroSD Express cards (see the bottom of the store page) ALSO only have a checkmark next to the Switch 2, even though they're just faster SD cards and fully compatible with older SD card drives (such as the Switch 1), the older devices simply don't benefit from the higher read/write speeds.
@dartmonkey
If I missed anything on the listing in the text explicitly stating the incompatibility, please let me know.

From the title I thought you meant Streetpass.

That's all well and good, but where are Sheldon's Picks/3rd loadouts for each primary?

This is the same scummy auction house affiliated with WATA grading.

I just uninstalled it because Creatures obvious doesn't care about a healthy meta or adding dark mode.

@alanahagues
Thank you for including the Ring Fit Adventure option. That's me for sure.

But dual screens.

Wow, that sure look a lot like Xenoblade Chronicles X for the Wii U

It's criminal that VB Wario Land is ranked so low. It's like a better version of Wario Land 1.

Steel Diver Sub Wars HD would be a perfect NSO freebie.

46% of voters are wrong.

@1UP-HUSKY
The better question is: How can $1400 be worth so little?

So where are Battle for Naboo and the other Factor 5 games?

@Drew250
It doesn't confirm it, that's why the article said 'seemingly'.

@LastFootnote
Don't forget the theme park in Japan and soon to open in Florida.

@YunoboCo
Switch 2 will do dual-screen gameplay. I'm calling it now

Well, no one expected them to endorse Pretendo, lol.

As a non-press commoner, the Switch is the only console I have had the good fortune of playing prior to launch.
SCRAP ran the "Defenders of the Triforce" Zelda escape game in early 2017, and teams that finished in a timely fashion were given the opportunity to play BotW on Switch in a bonus room.
That was cool.
I wish there was some similar event running nowadays, that was a fun day.

Why would a LEGO Game Boy take longer after its announcement to release than the Switch 2?

@StewdaMegaManNerd
Sakurai considered Heroes to be a full Fire Emblem Game.
Don't be surprised if the next Mario Kart is 'Mario Kart 10' (or even 11 if they count Home Circuit too lol)

@JohnnyMind
I'm hoping for a GBA/3DS situation. GBA and GB games fit in the GBA, but GBA games don't fit in the GB. Likewise 3DS games don't fit in a DS, but DS fits in 3DS fine. I'd really like it if the Switch 1 fits in the Switch 2 dock, just so I only need one dock plugged into my tv.

If we assume they'll feature Legends: Z-A heavily as a cross-generation launch game, I certainly hope the Switch 2 will have had an official direct by then.

They're essential for Warioware: Move It

I'm sure that Intel, AMD and IBM are 'Military companies' too then, their chips end up in everything.

If it was for quick charging then the power output would also be rated near its 60W power input, but the power output shown in that picture is 42W, higher than the original Switch's 33W to be sure, but that only covers 9Wof the 21W increase to the power budget. The new dock itself is eating up a full 18 W, the same as the maximum power draw of the original Switch console.
That power is being used for something, what could it be?

Oh my, that's curious.
For those who don't know basic electricity, you calculate power consumption by Power=Volts*Amps.
Devices generally list the maximum volts/amps they are designed to work with. In reality the voltage is generally stable and determined by the power supply, while amperage is adjusted as needed by whatever a given device is doing. It is rare for an electrical device that isn't something like a toaster to actually draw its dill rated power for an extended period of time.
So the dock accepts 20Volt*3Amp=60 Watts, but then only spits out 15V*2.8Amp=42 Watts.
So, somehow the dock itself is expected to draw 18 watts of power.
The original Switch dock lists an input of 15V*2.6A=39W and an output of 15V*2.2 W=33W.
Which means the original dock itself is rated to use no more than 6 watts at any given time, which it uses for its few simple functions of running the USB ports, the power LED, and video out.
Here's the fun part:
The Switch, at the absolute most (running an intense game with a discharged console/joy-cons), barely uses 17 watts. (You can only approach the full 40-watt rating by plugging some USB devices into the system so that they're draining power too).
So here we have a DOCK ALONE that is rated to use the full power consumption of the original Switch, presumably have ~15-20 watts of the power budget reserved for its USB ports, and ~25-27 watts left over for the Switch 2 proper.

I will temper my expectations, but I now FULLY believe the Switch 2 dock has substantial onboard computational power. This could mean any combination of the below:
1. The dock has a CPU/GPU onboard that will result in superior performance when docked.
2.The dock can wirelessly communicate with a Switch console to facilitate dual-screen gaming like the Wii U, with the dock doing a whole bunch of work on its own.
We'll see.

It took them ~25000 tries, right?
Millions of people have played Majora's Mask, I feel like someone must have seen the blue dog win at some point before now, and just not have it recorded.

@FantasiaWHT
"You wouldn't pay for it if you didn't benefit from it."
People buy self-destructive things all the time. The obese by trash high-calorie meals.
Smokers buy cigarettes.
Alcoholics buy beer.

@KidSparta
Netrunner (among other Fantasy Flight LCGs), Plaid Hat's Summoner Wars, and Doomtown all use that model.
And Magic/Pokémon/YuGiOh beat them every year. Lorcana too.
It ticks me off that people tolerate the random pack model.
But in a very real sense, people don't.
If you're playing Pokémon at the competitive level, you're buying singles from companies that open thousands of packs and then resell them.
But people love their Skinner boxes.
Sigh

@koopababble
You can make and market a card game without random booster packs.

@Joeynator3000
With Fire Emblem Heroes no longer giving platinum points, and Animal Crossing Pocket Camp ending, it is now the only mobile game to score you weekly My Nintendo points.
Which aren't worth much, but I do use my Mario/Kirby shopping bags and the annual desk calendars.

Hopefully we get another update that adds access to prior events.
I missed ONE this year and now my theme collection is incomplete.

But is it more stable now?

@RadioShadow
They have no legal standing to do so.

@Twilite9
I think it is generally a bad thing to post any external objects, twitter, bluesky, or otherwise, as when this article is read by someone in 10 years, there's no guarantee the API will still work.

I want to see the whole minecart ride experience on YouTube, and then finally experience it 5+ years from now when Epic Universe isn't the hottest new thing.

Y'all forgetting that Smash 4 and Xenoblade 3D have music players that work with a closed 3DS.

Protip:
NEVER USE A TEFLON PAN!
Just go plain cast iron, stainless steel, or enameled cast iron.
If stuff is sticking, just use more butter.
You don't want Teflon in your system.

@DarkScythe13
And you can do that in new media, don't retcon old games.

Smoother?
Did they actually push a patch that improves the framerate?

@Anachronism
It is. TCG pocket is a shorter game with less complex cards and smaller decks.

This announced the day after Disney announces $449/day/person line skipping passes for Disney World lmao.
Universal is going to destroy them over the next decade, just by not being tone-deaf.
(Lightning Lane Premier Pass is the name for those of you interested).

Just do a remake of Zelda 2. If it works, then consider another game, just like how Grezzo did modern LA, then used the style for EoW.

This may be the final Nintendo project started by Iwata.

IT'S REAL!!!!!!

You realize this was teased in 2014, right?

@dartmonkey
This was announced over 10 years ago!

They announced it a decade ago and it is finally out!

Wait, Target gives you a trash can for the game?
