A good reminder to not buy the switch 2
I have a feeling that it's going to flop like the Wii U. It's nearly the same as the OG Switch and in both the looks and performance departments. 4K 120Hz support, my ass
It's got less than 10% the CUDA cores of a 4090, a GPU that can't hit 120 FPS in any modern AAA title without DLSS. The console won't even come close to hitting 120 in any title—period—not unless Nvidia creates a DLSS setting more extreme than Ultra Performance.
As always with Nintendo, It's all going to come down to the games, and given that they have been slapping a fresh coat of paint on the same games since the Wii, I doubt anyone but the most hardcore fans are going to be willing to drop $80 on them. A good chunk of the Switch's top selling games are literal re-releases from the Wii U. Tears of the Kingdom is literally the same game as BotW, even has the same map. Laziest sequel ever. It should have been a DLC.
I want this to happen so bad but my local GameStop had a line out the door to preorder and they sold out. Nintendo has these people by the balls.
The same thing happened with the Wii U but it still flopped. Nintendo's hardcore audience believes that the company can do no wrong, so they will always be lining up to be the first to get their latest system.
For the console to succeed, Nintendo needs to sell to more than just their core fan base. They need to convince the every day, casual gamer that their machine is different enough from the last one for them to even notice the Switch 2 isn't the same thing as the Switch. It already happened to the Wii U. Most people who aren't following this shit thought that it was just an addon for the Wii. I think it's going to happen again.
They also need to convince console and PC gamers that their system is unique and powerful enough to hold its own, and they've already failed on both fronts.
That's why I think it's going to flop. I hope I'm right.
