Nintendo has a fantastic idea to avoid speculation with the reserves of the Switch 2: that you are a fan

by

After waiting, maybe, too much, yesterday was finally presented Nintendo Switch 2. We already have All the details from the new Nintendo hybrid console, but the funny thing is that just after the event, The hangover began. It is when we met the price of the console and the significant price increase of the games, the controversies’Game key cardsand his Retrocompatibility. The other big question was where and when you could book Nintendo Switch 2. And the answer is that Nintendo opens a fairly restrictive invitation system (and that makes sense half). Switch 2 by invitation. The launch of Nintendo Switch 2 will occur on June 5. We do not know if the dantesque situation of the first switch will be repeated, With stock breakage every two by three Because Nintendo did not supply and, just in case, the Japanese confirmed in their online store that can be reserved from April 8. However, that reservation will not be as simple as clicking on the corresponding button and expect to get to us. As says the company itself, “initially only the subscribers of Nintendo switch online that they receive an invitation will have the opportunity to book the Nintendo Switch 2 console in My Nintendo Store. “And it has a lot, but that a lot of small print. Requirements … curious. Nintendo does not invent anything with this system that we have already seen in many other products. The mobiles of the first years of OnePlus are the clearest example, but there are a number of conditions that we must meet if we want to reserve a Switch 2 on the company’s website. We must demonstrate that we are “fans”, so to speak, fulfilling the following: Be subscribed to Nintendo Switch online before March 31, 2025. Therefore, if you subscribe now, you don’t care. Having spent some time playing switch titles that have bought. Priority will be given to those who have accumulated a longer game time. Share use information with Nintendo. Have agreed to share information with Nintendo and receive offers. Have agreed to receive emails and advertising messages from Nintendo and not have withdrawn the consent on the day the invitation is invited. More small print. It is … too much, with some questionable points such as, above all, the last one, but even the small print has even smaller lyrics. For example, if you meet all that, but you have an online family account of which you are not the main holder, you will not be considered for the invitation. “In the case of family subscriptions, only the person who has bought the subscription will be taken into account for the invitation. The rest of the members of the family subscription will not qualify for the invitation process,” says the company. Antibots system. They are too restrictive, but they also comment that “it is possible that the selection criteria relax” later, but that they do so to give “priority to the most enthusiastic players of Nintendo Switch“. And, in a way, although it is something that we can raise an eyebrow, it makes sense to combat a scourge in the world of video games (which often foster the companies with stock too low): the bots and the resale. If you are in the world of video games, you will know that every time something limited comes out, it is usually exhausted in seconds and, almost instantly, they appear in stores like Wallapop with inflated prices. We saw it very recently with the PS5 30 anniversary edition, and it is something that has also been seen a lot with elements of Nintendo itself. With this system, the problem of user bots that tracks the web accumulating reservations to resell the product is removed. It makes sense, but. The lagoon of this system is that Nintendo Switch 2 is available to book … almost in any trade. You can reserve it in Amazonbut also in stores like Game or Mediamarkt. In Xtralife they are pending Open reservations And in Fnac you can reserve the same packs as in the rest of the shops: the basic and the one that carries’Mario Kart World‘. Therefore, although Nintendo wants to “reward fans” for Nintendo Switch 2 reserves, it is still a machine that, logically, is now available in almost any video game trade and should not be waiting for April 8 to reserve it. What is not known is what will happen once the reserves are exhausted and if we will return to the situation of the first months of Switch. In Xataka | The new Nintendo Switch 2 is a message to the other companies: games above technical specifications

Nintendo Switch 2 vs Nintendo Switch. What hybrid console buy and how are they differentiated

by

We have finally known more details about the Nintendo Switch 2the next Nintendo console that has been presented not without its particular controversies that will give much to talk about for months. Therefore, in this article we wanted to gather and comment what are the main differences between the new and current generation of Nintendo Switch. Is it worth making the leap as soon as it is launched? How much do video games cost? We explain it in the following lines. It is worth mentioning that certain details we will not explain them Because they have not yet been confirmed or there are some gaps that Nintendo must clarify. Such as details about the so -called “Game key cards“Or, although we partially know them, the Technical Hardware Specificationsas is the case of the processor. The same goes for the Retrocompatibilitythere are still some unknowns that should be clarified. Technical specifications of Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch (standard) Nintendo Switch Nintendo Switch Oled Nintendo Switch 2 dimensions and weight 238 x 101.6 x 14 mm 299 grams (without joy-with) 399 grams (with Joy-Con) 241 x 101 x 14 mm 322 grams (without joy-with) 426.38 grams (with Joy-Con) 272 x 116 x 13.9 mm 401 grams (without joy-with) 534 grams (with Joy-Con) screen 6.2 -inch LCD HD resolution (1,280 x 720 pixels) 7 -inch OLED HD resolution (1,280 x 720 pixels) 7.9 inches LCD FullHD resolution (1,920 x 1,080 pixels) 120 Hz HDR processor NVIDIDA CUSTOM TERRA NVIDIDA CUSTOM TERRA Nvidia (to be determined) RAM – – To be determined Internal storage 32 GB Expandable by microSDHC or microSDXC cards 64 GB Expandable by microSDHC or microSDXC cards 256 GB Expandable by MicroSD Express cards Wireless connectivity WIFI Bluetooth WIFI Bluetooth Wifi 6 Bluetooth Video saltity 1.080p in TV mode 720p in portable mode 1.080p in TV mode 720p in portable mode 4K at 60 fps with HDR FullHD/1.440PA 120 fps with HDR audio Stereo speakers Stereo speakers Linear PCM 5.1 (TV) Stereo speakers Monoaural microphone buttons On Volume On Volume On Volume GameChat button ports USB-C 3.5 mm jack USB-C 3.5 mm jack USB-C (x2) 3.5 mm jack battery 4,310 mAh Load time: 3 hours 4,310 mAh Load time: 3 hours 5,220 mAh Load time: 3 hours autonomy From 4.5 to 9 hours It depends on the game From 4.5 to 9 hours It depends on the game 2 to 6.5 hours It depends on the game price From 289.95 euros From 344.95 euros 469.99 euros * Some price may have changed from the last review Nintendo Switch 2 (Reserva) * Some price may have changed from the last review Differences between Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch LCD and OLED Nintendo Switch (left) and Nintendo Switch 2 (right) It is undeniable that over the years technology has advanced. Nintendo Switch 2 comes with a LCD panelbut … is it really a panel similar to that of Nintendo Switch? The truth is that no. The Nintendo Switch is available with the LCD panel that we could see after the launch of version V2 (it is also the one that carried the original console), in addition to the corresponding OLED version that is the last one that has been marketed. On the other hand, for the moment the Nintendo Switch 2 will arrive with an LCD panel without the possibility of choosing any OLED model. Offers greater diagonal (7.99 inches compared to 6.2 of the switch and 7 of the OLED), a refreshment rate of 120 Hz and compatibility with the image format HDR. It is a LCD panel, but everything adds, and these technologies or specifications get it better. New joy-with new functions Joy-magnetic with the new “C” button of access to Gamechat. A generational change implies, or has at least involved in most cases, that the controls suffer certain changes to add improvements. The joy-with 2 will not only have the Magnetic grip that we could see in the announcement of the console, but they will also have a mouse function (They can literally be used as if they were a mouse for certain games). They have also suffered certain improvements that users already demanded with the Nintendo Switch: SR and SL buttons They have grown in size to be more comfortable to play when using the Joy-Con separately and the Joystick have also grown slightly. Nintendo Switch Online Add more functions Next to the console, a good assortment of accessories was announced. Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) It is the payment subscription that we already find with the Nintendo Switch. In this first console at the beginning you could play in online multiplayer and then some functions such as having access to expansions or content of some video games, access to exclusive offers or devices and access to demonstrations of some games, among others, were arriving. With the Nintendo Switch 2 they will arrive even more functions. Among them, we will have access to the improvements of some video games released in Nintendo Switch totally free, but one of the inherent functions of the console, Gamechat, is paid: We can only use it if we have an active subscription. And much eye because it is not an additional function of the console, it is a function of it. Power, graphic quality and performance Some Nintendo Switch video games will receive improvements for Nintendo Switch 2. Many years have passed since the Nintendo Switch was launched. During this time technology has taken giant steps, so the Nintendo Switch 2 will have A power and much greater performance than in the current generation. We cannot say much about the processor beyond that it is from Nvidia because nothing is known about it. What is evident is that the graphic quality of video games improves in Nintendo Switch 2. There is not only an increase in the resolution that can be squeezed from video games, but that the dock will allow the Recalado to 4K in certain compatible video games. Which … Read more

Nintendo Switch 2 had one of its battle horses in retrocompatibility. Has resolved it in the Nintendo style

by

We had to wait, but after the official announcement of Nintendo Switch 2 Almost three months ago, Nintendo has finally celebrated the long -awaited Direct in which he has spoken long and lying about the successor of one of the most successful consoles in history. We already know the price, date and launch catalogbut there is a detail that makes a crucial difference with respect to its predecessor: Nintendo Switch 2 is retrocompatible. And although that was confirmed on January 16, its relevance goes far beyond what it seems. Supposes the return of a historical characteristic in Nintendo that disappeared, precisely when Switch It was launched in 2017. Now: It’s not like many expected. Or, well, seeing the direction of the industry, it may be exactly as we imagined … Fragmented history Let’s rewind a little historical review. Nintendo is a company that laid the foundations for the video game as we know it now, not only in desktop, but in laptop. Nintendo Switch was the union of the two ways of playingbut until his arrival, we had desktop consoles, on the one hand, and laptops on the other. Nes, SNES and Nintendo 64 were independent products. Each console had its own guts and none worried about looking at the past. There were unofficial accessories to play NES in SNES and the same in Nintendo 64, but when the Japanese launched a desktop console, they only looked at the future. It is logical: make a console retrocompatible implies that the new machine must carry the original circuitry of the previous machine. The first PS3 model carried a PS2 inside, something they eliminated with later versions to save costs. It could also be emulation by software as Xbox 360 did with the original Xbox, but it was not the same. That retrocompatibility was no stranger to the Nintendo laptops line. Game Boy Color was compatible with Game Boy games, Game Boy Advance admitted Game Boy Color and Nintendo DS games even had Port for Game Boy Advance games. In desktop, however, the villantazo arrived with Wii. After the commercial failures of Nintendo 64 and Gamecube, the ‘Great N’ opted for a Wii that DVD read, but also the disc format of its previous console. Wii was a Gamecube who could not only read his games, but to which we could connect his peripherals as controls and memory cards. It was a total retrocompatibility. And Wiiu, despite its failure, could also execute Wii games native. Nintendo Switch and his poor “virtual console” Ok, Wii and Wiiu read albums, but … What happened in laptops? Well, Nintendo 3DS lost retrocompatibility with Game Boy Advance cartridges, but admitted the huge DS catalog, thus being a very, very complete console. But 2017 arrived, Nintendo Switch was launched and retrocompatibility was lost. It was logical for two reasons. The first: I had no record slot, since its format are memory cards -I still call them cartridges, and I don’t get off this ship. The second: although it had a USB accessory to read albums, Switch’s architecture was ARM while the previous ones were PowerPC. Switch virtual console is a nintendo online section Come on, you could not play the previous games in a switch that totally broke with the past. But … And for software? In recent years we have seen how this software emulation has advanced a lot (especially thanks to Microsoft’s efforts), but Nintendo already had its Virtual console both in Wii and Wiiu, allowing generations such as NES, SNES and N64. He was one of his bastions, in fact, and did not need to have the circuitry of the previous machines to work. And there were even mega drive or PC Engine titles. It was a jewel for the nostalgic and you could buy for little money the title you would like. Switch 2 cartridges have the same format, but different color Switch, with his Nvidia Tegra chip, could do that perfectly. And yes, he did, through the ‘virtual console’ of the Nintendo Online subscription. It was not the same concept that we saw in Wii and the catalog, although it has been expanding, it is smaller (apart from the fact that the games do not belong to you, since you do not buy them individually, but that they are within the subscription), but at least it was shown that Switch could treasure part of that legacy of the company. The controversial retrocompatibility of Nintendo Switch 2 And here we are, eight years later, and getting closer to the launch of A Switch 2 that will not paste that door to the past. It is compatible with Nintendo Online, but the most important thing is that the machine repeats the play we saw in Game Boy and Nintendo DS: you can put the cartridge of a switch game and enjoy perfectly on Switch 2. There were only two details that we should know: what would be the improvements and if it would be free to put the game that you already had to enjoy. And yes, but no. In the Direct, Nintendo has mentioned that we can put our cartridge of a switch game and enjoy the new console, but the title will not have first changes. Now, some like ‘Kirby and the Forgotten Earth’, ‘The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’ and ‘Tears of the Kingdom’, among others, will have a new version: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition calls. They will be launched in physical format as if it were a new version, but you can also enter the cartridge we have and buy a package that will unlock extra content or improvements for that game. Come on: a payment update to enjoy those improvements/new content. In the ‘Zelda’, they have confirmed that we will have a more stable second rate, as well as a higher resolution and HDR compatibility. In the title of ‘Kirby’, apart from better graphics, we will have a new exclusive story. Finally, GameCube retrocompatbility will arrive. … Read more

Nintendo Switch 2 will have “Key cards”. And the big question is what it is for the future of physical format

by

On June 5 it will be launched Nintendo Switch 2. In a one -hour event, the Japanese company has Clear almost all doubts That there was on its new console, but beyond being a celebration and although the presentation has been an avalanche of games, the aftertaste that has left among users is bittersweet. Nintendo Switch 2 will be retrocompatible with Siwtch 1 game cards, but to enjoy improvements We will have to pay. The price of the console will start from 470 euros in Europe (but in Japan it will be much cheaper so that more people can buy it, saying by Nintendo). And physical games They already go to 90 euros. In social networks, the conversation revolves around something else: the ‘Key or’ Game Key Card ‘Nintendo Switch 2. And it is a concept … controversial, at least. The “Key Key Card ‘Game Cards” Nintendo Switch 2 During the presentation, there were elements that Nintendo did not detail. For example, to know the price we had to enter the Nintendo Store, the same for the price of the games. And when he talked about the formats, the company just said two things: That the game cards will be the same size as those of Switch, but will be red and will read data at a higher speed. That normal microSD cards will not be compatible, since it will be necessary to buy microSD Express cards that read data at a speed, again. It is logical, because more demanding games at the visual level need storage support with a higher reading speed to be able to do streaming of data without interruptions. What did not say anything is one of the ‘game key cards’. Again, it is after the presentation when we find out about this matter, and it is the one that is raising blisters among users on social networks. In the Nintendo Support Pagethey say the following about this third alternative format to the physicist and digital: Game key cards are different from normal game cards since they do not contain complete game data. Instead, the game key card is your “key” to download the full game to your console through the Internet. After completing the download, you can insert the game key on your console and play as you do with a normal physical game card. They also show an example of the notice that will be in the physical cover: The operation is simple: we buy a box with this cartridge-lave, we introduce it in the console and we are given the possibility of downloading the game associated with it. The cartridge has no informationso the game is saved in the MicroSD Express that we have bought separately and will be from where it is executed. When we want to play that game, we will have to put the corresponding cartridge-lave, be connected to the Internet the first time we start it (subsequent starts do not need the Internet, but the cartridge-llave is already playing. It is a mixture between physical card and digital game. What is the point? The only one that occurs to me is that it is for games that have a higher weight to the maximum of the game cards or for small editors who want to have physical pretence in stores (although more caught with tweezers this). But of course, it also gives rise to another interpretation: Nintendo kills the conventional physical format. . Too much fog, but with precedents on switch Nintendo says clearly: “The game key cards are different from normal game cards, since they do not contain the complete game data” and “This is a box of a game key.” There are no need to clarify it, but these phrases would imply that, on the one hand, the normal game cards will be and, on the other, the key cards. There will be games that come inside the card and others whose card is simply an ‘activator’ For the game that you download from the eShop. Nintendo has said that Siwtch 2 game cards have a higher reading speed. If they are just an activator, it wouldn’t make sense, right? Supporting this theory, we have ‘Cyberpunk 2077’. Your responsible They affirm The following: “Nintendo Switch 2 owners can buy the game on a 64 GB game card or by digital download in the Nintendo Eshop.” The other interpretation, however, is that the “game key cards” are those of Switch 2 and the “normal game cards” those of Switch 1, which would imply a death of the ‘pure’ physical format on the new machine. And that is why it is mandatory to use MicroSD Express cards in Switch 2, because everything will go on them. That is the reading that is being done in networks and the one that gives rise to the company itself due to the diffuse messages. Currently, Nintendo already offers boxes that do not wear the game. An example is the ‘code in a box’ like that of ‘It Takes Two‘ either ‘Final Fantasy VII‘, Boxes that are in physical format, but do not have a game card: only a code to download them from eShop. On the other hand, titles like ‘Noire‘They have a giant notice of “requires Internet download.” I had not done the test until now, since I always had my connected switch, but I have put the game on the console, I have removed the connection to the network and … I can’t play. Basically, at least that is what it seems, that new notice of the Nintendo Switch 2 boxes makes it more clear that, or you have the Internet, or do not play that specific game. With the case of ‘La Noire’ I thought it was a certain additional content or some chapter that did not enter the ‘cartridge’. And it may be so, but the truth is that it does not let me play without downloading the data before. Other cases, such as the ‘Heritage Pack’ … Read more

Nintendo Switch 2 is no longer a toy, it is the closest to the final hybrid console

by

Nintendo has presented the Switch 2a console that respects the original concept, but that is far from what it offered us The first generation. Nintendo has never cared that switch was a toy that moved games in 720p resolution: I knew I was going to sell the same. But 2025 is not a year to launch a poor power console, and photography has changed completely. Switch 2 is no longer a console whose specifications can be ridiculed. It is a laptop with desktop soul. But a real desktop. A heart of Nvidia. The original Nintendo Switch had a processor Tegra of Nvidiathe same as Nvidia Shield. This generation repeat processor manufacturer and, although they have not transcended technical details about it, it once again has a tegra. One capable of moving graphics of up to 1080 120 fps in the console, and 4k 60 fps in desktop mode. In other words, the switch finally has a decent resolution to compete with the best. First level consoles such as X and PS5 series support 120 fps but, being realistic, the catalog that supports this refreshment rate is minimal. 4k 60p is the standard, and switch finally meets it. A level catalog. ‘Star Wars: Outlaws’, ‘Cyberpunk’ or ‘The Duskblood’ are just some examples of a new era for switch. One in which the console that once was a toy can move triple. PS5 and Xbox One X. (It will be especially interesting to compare it with One S), but there is undoubtedly a key here: it is finally time to compare the switch with a desktop console. To this we must add both the retrocompatibility with Switch 1 games and the emulation capabilities to which Gamecube is now added. Triple A price, for games and console. 90 euros. It is the price that Mario Kart World ‘will have for Nintendo Switch 2. The rest of the games can wait for the 80 euros, 20 euros more than the classics 59.99 euros that we could buy games for the first generation. With a price of 469.99 euros without games, Switch competes directly in the league of the most top of the market. The key? Nintendo does not go directly for that market, he has his own, and now he has more arguments than ever to convince. For almost all. Buying Switch 1 was to launch a clear message: Import Nintendo, not the graphic quality. Nintendo Switch 2 ends completely with this, now becoming the hybrid par excellence to play some triple A deliveries (the initial catalog is and aims to remain reduced), but also to what Nintendo does remain Nintendo: its own titles. To play this type of deliveries in portable console the price is high: rivals as The Rog Ally X are going to 799 euros. More powerful, yes. Without switch versatility, too. Only time will determine the success of this new switch. What is clear is that Nintendo has understood that hardware and performance matter and, finally, we have that switch we deserved.

Nintendo Switch 2: The new Nintendo console is larger, more powerful and is willing to win the generation

by

It has taken, but it is finally here. Nintendo has just announced its new console, the Nintendo Switch 2, a device that evolves the portable concept that the original Nintendo Switch became fashionable. The console is larger, more powerful and, in some way, continuous, something that makes sense taking into account the more than 150 million units that sold its predecessor. Follow the presentation of the Nintendo Switch 2 live. More and better screen. The new Switch 2 retains the thickness of the previous model, 13.9 millimeters, but the screen size increases to 7.99 inches. This panel is LCD, but its resolution has risen to FullHD (the double), the refreshment rate reaches 120 Hz and admits HDR. It is, without a doubt, a remarkable improvement. New Joy-Con 2. The joy-with have been renewed and are the ones that provide the color note to the console. These controls are magnetically coupled to the console thanks to “some powerful magnets” and are extracted by pressing a top button. The SR and SL buttons are larger, something that should improve the experience when using the joy-with separately or sharing them. Mouse mode. This rumored way that Nintendo has not spoken too much is confirmed. The Joy-Con 2, both, can be used as a mouse for certain compatible games, but the Japanese company has not given many details about it. It will be to wait to see how Nintendo takes advantage, but one of the soups shown is a wheelchair basketball game whose characters we move by sliding the joy-with on the table. The C. button It is located in the Joy-Con right, the orange, and serves for Gamechat. With this function we can communicate with the friends with whom we are playing. The console has an integrated microphone in the upper area and, according to Nintendo, captures the voice even from afar. This function will require Nintendo Switch online. We can also share the screen in the purest discord style and talk to our contacts even if we are playing different titles. It is, for all purposes, a kind of chat room as discord integrated in the console that, in addition, can be connected to a webcam (sold apart) so that our friends can see us and that will be integrated into the games. The support and the dock. The rear support is larger and, unlike the original switch, you can move at pleasure and place in any position. As for the dock, it is much more powerful. Not only has a new design, but it admits output in 4K resolution (up to 60 fps) and HDR compatibility. In that sense, something interesting is that Nintendo has implemented a fan in his own whose objective is none other than keeping the temperature at bay. The guts. At the time these lines are written, Nintendo has not talked about the engine of its console, but it is obvious that it improves in terms of power is there. Proof of this are the new open worlds such as ‘Cyberpunk 2077’, ‘Hogwarts Legacy’ or ‘Borderlands 4’, and the graphics seen in the trailer, as well as the improved versions of certain games with a better refreshment rate and graphic quality (improvements that, by the way, come in a package that is sold separately). What we do know for sure is that it has 256 GB of internal storage, and not 32 GB, and that it will be compatible with MicroSD Express cards. That means the microSD cards that Nintendo Switch uses will not be compatible. The new cartridges. They are red instead of blacks and exactly the same in size and dimensions than those of Nintendo Switch, but their data reading speed is much larger. It is also confirmed the retrocompatibility practically total with the games of the previous generation.

everything that is played by Nintendo with the Switch 2

by

There are only a few hours left for the official announcement of all the characteristics of the New Switch 2or at least enough to get the idea of ​​what exactly expect from this hybrid console, improved version of the one that has been taking sales lists from all over the world for eight years. We have asked ourselves unansweredalthough one of them is impossible for us to see it answered: what happens if Switch 2 does not work as a Nintendo waiting? Do you have any emergency plan? Insured success … right? How wasn’t a switch 2 to work? More than 150 million units sold, more than 100,000 million dollars entered by Nintendo guarantee safe success. But Nintendo has some bad experiences with the second parts of his hardware. Of course, this happened with that disaster without palliative that was Wii U, which only sold 14 million consoles compared to 101 of its predecessor. Less loud were the figures of the 3DS, with 76 million, but that pale in front of its precedent: the DS sold approximately double, more than 150 million. And an extra dictation. While Wii U sank, there was a 3Ds that kept the guy. And while Gamecube (the second greatest failure in the history of Nintendo) made Nintendo think that perhaps compete with Sony and Microsoft was not quite a good idea, Game Boy Color continued with relative dignity the success of the most important laptop of all time. Nintendo has always had a plan B or a laptop that served as a mattress of possible collapses. But the hybrid condition of the Switch It makes it the portable option and, at the same time, of Nintendo desktop. And there is no more. Video games, the only sector. Let us also keep in mind that Nintendo is a company delivered exclusively to video games, which undoubtedly gives huge joys to the players (their video game catalog is, well, a catalog of video games; not everyone can boast that), but puts the company on the tightrope. It is obvious that if Microsoft can afford deficit experimentsfirefighter ideas and Buy Lost Business Companies It is because Microsoft is not just Xbox. That doesn’t happen to Nintendo. Reasons to be conservative. Before we know anything about Switch 2, a criticism surveys the launch of this new console: the total immobility about its precedent. Very little power improvement, so it is rumored; some improvement in the control support system; Some sensors that allow joycons to use as mice and whose utility will be allegedly very limited; And now. But it makes sense: Nintendo cannot afford an error because, since the launch of Switch, almost all of the company’s revenue come from the sales of the console, and a failure would disrupt the complete economy of Nintendo. But … Is it counterproductive to go from conservative? When you don’t innovate enough. Nintendo has the tendency to grab a success and not release it until he squeezes it. For example, with the topic prices: good luck if you want to buy a ‘Mario Kart’ when Nintendo decides to apply a discount. That can ever happen, or at least years after the launch, when the next installment arrives (sometimes not yet). They are the type of maneuvers that, of course, give abundant benefits when they work, but that magnify Nintendo’s image of being a rigid company and with little waist to react to financial setbacks. It is what has a single letter play … and that single letter is now switch 2. Header | Nintendo In Xataka | The great enemy of the Nintendo Switch 2 are not the Sony or Microsoft consoles.
