I think that it's going to be a really terrible and overexpensive switch that takes the Iphone route and makes the screen like a centimeter bigger

Seriously? But with every console they've made it always comes so far. I don't care that it runs 2 FPS slower than the average console, gaming standards are a little ridiculous nowadays, in my opinion.

controversial opinion:
i think there should be super mario maker 2 deluxe not super mario maker 3

anw plays smm2
EDIT: nvm

do you think there's gonna be all the switch games?

Hopefully there's going to be backwards compatibiltiy, but from what I've seen from other companies, I worry that there's going to be that annoying “limited compatibility” thing.

oh ok

switch 2 launch predictions:
like 48 farming games
Mario Kart 8 Ultra Deluxe because we refuse to make Mario Kart 9
new 3D or 2D mario
port or remaster of some 1st party game from either the gamecube, wii or wii u
random obscure IP revival

It was recently announced. According to the trailer, there is backwards compatibility, but it said that certain games weren't (I have no idea what that means yet though)

Games that used the IR sensor. Its fine if you wirelessly pair your original Joy-Cons wirelessly to the system. The same can't be said for most Nintendo Labo, which will be completely incompatible.
