Who’s your favorite character in the Nintendo universe? Waluigi? Fantastic, that’s exactly who I was going to say!! Just because he’s closely affiliated with Wario (who sucks) doesn’t mean he’s any less of a winner. I mean, it’s not like we look down on Mark Wahlberg because of Donnie, right? In my opinion, it’s an incredible oversight that Waluigi has yet to be included as a playable character in a Super Smash Bros. game. Nintendo will have the opportunity to correct this with the release of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U (official titles forthcoming….hopefully).
Company skipped last year's event.
Not surprising at all.
I mean, they´ll be releasing a new console in a few weeks.
Nintendo has announced its financial results for the full fiscal year, alongside an update to Nintendo Switch shipments and more data, including a prediction for Switch 2 hardware and software.
well, the switch 2 has two holidays in the us, thanksgiving and Christmas.
so id say its fairly possible. the rest of the world will also grab them
Yeah doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility as long as they have enough supply.
Do people buy each other games consoles for Thanksgiving? I’m in Europe and always assumed it was just Christmas where gifts were exchanged.
That time is often referred to as the start of the Xmas shopping season. For the last few years, retailers would do 'black Friday' deals at various times throughout the year. While many still prefer to start their shopping in the mid to late November, others will just buy when they feel the time (and prices) are right for them.
Switch and Switch are a different kettle of fish. A sell out at launch by the diehards, strong sales, then the non diehards will be put off by the £75 ($99) games, including the stupid download cards which are topping £65 ($85). Not rocket science to work out how the Switch 2 is going to pan out. The PS5 has sold well, but games at £70, sales have been low. As game sales drop, prices will rise. Sony could knock out all their games for £40 and still make a killing selling more games. There's no denying that a gaming crash is looming.
I agree, I don't see the Switch 2 selling anywhere near the numbers that these predictions suggest or what the general buzz is implying. While the initial sales will likely be strong, driven by diehard fans, I anticipate a gradual decline. It may not drop off immediately, but over time, sales will inevitably taper.
Not paying for something that's not worth more than the price it was advertised, which is $449 - $499.
Nintendo Switch 2 upgrades portability with a bigger screen, 1080p handheld play, and Wi-Fi 6. Here's why it still matters in 2025.
As someone who travels for work I still care about portable systems.
I have found using remote play in a hotel room is an excellent experience in a major city as I've got my console hard wired to a gigabit connection at home however it's not perfect if power trips the console tends to go to the repair section and can't be booted remotely so it's a annoying call to family to power it on for me.
A hotel out of town or regionally though that can cause havok for remote play as I'm always on 5g using it hotel wifi is never good enough for a solid remote play session.
But leaving a stable location and getting onto a plane or train and there's little to no chance of a good experience with remote play thats where something like the switch 2 will really shine for me personally long haul flights are exhausting and one of my most hated things the switch has been invaluable for me and I'll absolutely be upgrading
Nintendo has always done it the best, handheld is in their genes. I do wish their dock could be like an egpu though and it make it much more powerful, it's a bit harder for me to play portable now for some odd reason, love just sitting on the couch with a big screen and controller. And ofc always great to have the portable option and for me it's best for smaller games.
IMO, 540P upscaled in portable mode to a 1080P screen using DLSS on the tensor cores will likely extend battery life using a lower TDP and provide much better anti-aliasing and similar clarity compared to native 1080P with med/low AA at a higher TDP. It’s just a better way to use a mobile chipset. That’s not a flaw or weakness, it’s a key benefit for the portable design of the platform.
Lol, even the impressive upscaling feature of Switch 2 can now spin to a negative one.
Switch 1 was hitting 720p and above that with no upscale, so why can’t they have a higher res and upscale it more
@jznrpg
Because of that even the current gen games will now run on switch 2 that looked as good and with decent framerate as the current gen consoles.
Do you watch Nintendo's hands on preview for switch 2? LOL.
because aside from Nintendo's own games which have their dedicated fanbase, portability is the only other thing it has going for it. Nintendo will be eliminated faster than xbox if they ever decide to do a dedicated home console again. going the hybrid way is the only way left for them and they are lucky they dominated the portable market all those years ago. imagine the power of the Switch 2 as a console this day and age with the same price as PS5. they will be the laughing stock of the market.
I'm all for Waluigi being playable in the next Smash Bros... he's a very controversial addition though based on what I have seen on various sites, even more of a reason why I'd want him.
I would want a 3D Platformer starring Wario and Waluigi, but this would suffice.
He's an obvious choice, I don't see why they havent added him yet
Daisy, Rosalina, Waluigi, Toad (character skins from Toadette to Toadsworth) etc
He also has my favorite Mario Kart tune, Waluigi Pinball, which should TOTALLY be his theme song.

TOO BAD. WALUIGI TIME.

You'd be able to do Mario & Luigi vs Wario & Waluigi, or Mario & Wario vs Luigi & Waluigi, or Mario & Waluigi vs Wario & Luigi.
