I wish/hope they release an OLED at launch.

Same, I was hoping for OLED + both Zeldas bundle... It's a wasted opportunity if there isn't bundle with both games, just to introduce new people to the best. Never had Nintendo and would get it in an instant.

Whilst I'm sure they'd never do it, I reckon there would be a fairly decent market for a Switch 2 Lite 'Reverse' which had no screen / no portability if it was £75/£100 cheaper.

Even though I convinced myself I'd probably play my OLED Switch undocked loads more than my original because it had a bigger and better screen, it has also spent the overwhelming majority of it's life in the dock.

I would love this so much. My wishlist would include multiple cartridge slots, space for an M2 SSD instead of MicroSD card, and beefed up cooling for higher clock speeds. Never going to happen.

Switch 2 Heavy?

Don't think it'll be much if any heavier than the current one.

Those wishes would likely put the cost up a lot and take it more in to the handheld PC market. Nintendo want to keep it affordable to the majority.

It was in reply to a suggestion that Nintendo make a tethered non-portable version. Switch 2 Heavy being my poor attempt at a humorous name.

I think they have milked Mario Kart 8 enough now!

Like others I'm sure there will be at least one probably 2/3 big exclusives on launch day to tempt people to part with there cash, they will want to do some big numbers on launch to sustain the Switch jugernaut!

They should bring the double dash 2 players back. But judging by the teaser looks like it won't. I wonder how they'll top deluxe with sheer amount of courses and characters.
 
Hmm I still can’t get in on board with Nintendo after all their rip off practices… they are so stingy / lame with their re-releases it’s unbelievable.

They just re-released Donkey Kong Country Returns, a 15 year old game, for £40. What a joke.

The last straw for me was when they released Mario Party for the switch and it has something like a piddly 3-4 boards… less than what they had on n64. Then they released a new Mario Party game rather than releasing new boards as DLC. Utterly pathetic.

It will be tricky to top and I’m not sure that a small graphical bump from the new hardware really achieves much as it already looks great for what it is!
 
Despite initial reports of GTA VI not being ported to the Switch 2, I have seen that the publishers now say it will? Be impressive if they manage that.

To be fair they haven't mentioned GTA 6 by name, they have committed to "Supporting Switch 2" and ackowledged that Nintendo consoles are no longer "for kids".
Personally I doubt we'll see GTA 6 unless its cut down severely, I can see GTA 5 and Online being released though.
 
I'm hoping my mig switch works with it, even if just for switch 1 games.
I plan to get one to stay boxed in the loft in the hope for a future exploit and one to game on

Ah ok, my bad. GTA 5 on a Switch would ace though.
 
I think we will see the usual western 3rd Party support for the Switch 2.

Step 1, Wait and see what happens.
Step 2, Say you need to buy this other thing first to show your support.
Step 3, Put out half hearted port with no real value after the release of other versions.
Step 4, Be surprised when they don't sell and pull support.

GTA VI I have my doubts, your COD's too, I think we will see the usual Ubisoft games at the start and that's about it from West Publishers.

Its not what I want but the support for the Switch 1 has been a bit lacking imo.

It's something I don't really understand given the sales figures for the console you'd think taping that huge market would be irresistible! We got a Switch primarily for the kids but given it is our only console I'd certainly buy a decent version of COD or GTA as a sale they won't get on any other format as I can't justify buying the hardware for my occasional use.

Microsoft are contractually obliged to bring COD to the Switch at some point after the deal they signed with Nintendo as part of the competition investigations into the Activision takeover.

Supposedly a lot of the launch titles are potentially big 3rd party game rather than just Nintendo stuff this time.
