According to the Ask the Developer interview focused on the Nintendo Switch 2, the console was almost named the Super Nintendo Switch, but because SNES couldn't play NES games, they went the numbered route.
Super Mario Odyssey gets a major technical update for Nintendo Switch 2, featuring upscaled 4K resolution, improved visuals, and stable 60 FPS performance.
nice improvement to the clarity. Really makes everything look less blurry, especially in the distance.
really hope we see more free improvements like this on Switch 1 games.
First game I played on Switch 2. Much sharper and cleaner image compared to the original.
A lot of games that have no official Switch 2 update already run WAY better just from the hardware itself. It's fantastic getting to play all these games in a much better state. So glad I hardly played any of my Switch collection over the years, lol. This will make experiencing them for the first time so much better.
We couldn't find an Atari Lynx in the office (sorry).
From Mario Kart World to Fast Fusion, here's every Switch 2 racing game you can play at launch.
First game I downloaded was Fast Racing Fusion... wow. What an upgrade from RMX. I will go buy MK World later.
Because that worked so well for the Wii U. They literally could have called it Wii 2 (Wii Too)
No Switch U was considered?
Stupid idea, glad they kept it simple and just gave it a 2. Calling it "Super Nintendo Switch" almost seems like a Pro upgrade and not a full generational leap, more market confusion that the Wii U naming caused.
