NE: "If you still plan on holding onto your Nintendo Switch 1 products, you might be interested to know that its controllers will be fully compatible with Switch 2, including with its exclusive games."
The Outerhaven says: While the Nintendo Switch 2 is a few weeks away, some are wondering about the handheld PC gaming devices and if they'll throw a wrench in Nintendo's plans.Honestly, I doubt it and I can't understand why others's don't feel the same way.
First party is what Nintendo needs, the next Steam Deck will probably run third party games noticeably better though with little doubt.
I just hope Nintendo has quality first party games and don't skimp on the content with long dry spells... One of the issues is that they rely on third party titles to fill in the gaps between first party releases, and if they're gonna drag it out again for 8 years with no Pro model in between, then all I can say is oof..
Exactly. I don't see why people keep pitting the Switch/Switch 2 against handheld PCs. They are two different ecosystems, and they are treated as such.
Square Enix talks about developing Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade for Nintendo Switch 2 in a behind-the-scenes interview.
Why do we think this is coming out on Switch 2 before Xbox? Any thoughts? The S2 is not more powerful than the Series S so it’s not a ‘lack of power’ issue. Perhaps the sales forecast is higher on S2 than Xbox so that’s maybe where their priority lies?
It’s definitely a sales issue. If Xbox didn’t have players used to GamePass I bet it would be there already.
"The Southern Finland-based indie games developer Gloomsoft are today very happy and excited to announce that their dark sci-fi metroidvania "Moadra" , is coming to PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, Xbox Series X, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores this year (2025)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Ye i read this but wasnt sure, was waiting on more news.. if true then is AWESOME, as i own a lot of switch pro controllers.. this would mean i would not need to purchase more switch 2 pro controllers.. i dont jive with the joycons but you never know.. just too small for my hands.
But pro controllers are awesome, so if i can indeed play switch 2 games using switch 1 pro controllers then i am going to be even more happy.
Cant wait for my switch 2, now to only find a pre order still possible in uk.. so tired of these scalpers man.
The governments need to make it illegal or something, having them buy up all the stock to sell back at higher prices is just wrong, especially when people are already struggling.
Hopefully this invite thing works out but i am worried i wont get an invite so will have to wait.. if they made it illegal most would likely give us scalping allowing real consumers to buy.
Happy for that news considering I really like the current pro controller I do t think I'll use the C button or paddles.
I also have a few of the NSO controllers and use them frequently
