What the heck are they planning to package into this that isn't on the original?
Like they've already fused their portable and console brands, what else are they going to be able to gimick onto it? 3D?
the ability to run a pokemon game above 20 fps, ideally
I love scarlet and violet, I was quite fond of them, but I really want a pokemon game that doesn't feel like pulling teeth to play
Lmao. You are in for a bad time.
It worked smoothly in emulators. More compute could solve the problem. It doesn't make up for other shortcomings of the games though.
Nvidia’s upscaling tech would be cool, we’d finally get anti-aliasing in a first party Nintendo title
N64 had native hardware AA
That console's hardware is endlessly fascinating. Incredible what they did with it, at the price it sold for, back in 1996!
Rumors are it will have a LCD screen. That way Nintendo will be able to make a version with an OLED screen a few years later and sell it to you again. They're so "innovative".
Don't think of it as a Switch 2, any more than the Wii was a GameCube 2, or the NDS was a GBA 2.
That said, I personally think the Switch was a realization of what the WiiU tried to be: blending handheld and console, exploring motion controls, and solidifying online play with titles like Splatoon and Super Mario Maker.
The Switch itself experimented with VR with the Nintendo Labo headset, bringing VR modes to Super Mario Odyssey and Mario Kart, Smash Bros and Breath of the Wild.
They really could have pivoted strongly into VR, since the biggest barrier -- the hardware buy-in -- was already out of the way.
I wouldn't be surprised if the next console picked up where the Switch left off there.A VR/AR console would deffo be interesting if they could make it happen in a way that addresses the current issues with the hardware.
