What Are the Specs of the New Nintendo Switch?

ORIGINAL POST

Its that perfect time when Apple is still signing the most recent previous MacOS version. I will get liquid glass next year. Does anyone else do this?

just correcting it because I see it in the post: Apple doesn’t “un-sign” macOS like it does iOS - they may check if it’s latest if you clean install but that’s a startup security setting that can be changed.

Meaning that if you really wanted to for some reason, you could throw Monterey on a USB and install that instead.

Of course when enough years have passed, the certificate used to sign the installer may expire but that can just be bypassed by changing the date.

Hello, I have a few switch systems up for trade for either other switch systems or a Nintendo ‘new’ 3DS, Nintendo 2DS XL, or a GameBoy Micro. I’m willing to add some PayPal to make-up any difference or outright buy an item (I’m only willing to outright buy the Gameboy Micro). If you need more pictures let me know. The Switch Systems are in excellent condition. Pics

I mean maybe, I mostly want to use it in some sort of trade for a Gameboy micro or the Zelda switch lite but I might be tempted to sell it. I’m not sure how much to sell it for. It is the Japanese version switch lite, but is basically the same as the US version.

The reason I got mine was because Splatoon is one of my favorite games and they announced the new Splatoon game so I figured might as well get it anyway since I will be when the game comes out.

But so many people buying it for one or two exclusive games seems crazy to me. I'm wondering if it really is just people buying something shiny and new.

I’ve had numerous conversations with people regarding videogames, just during small talk, where I ask them about what they own and play. A lot of the time, there are just people who own a PS5 or Xbox and only play Madden, FIFA, and Call of Duty. Like that’s it. That’s all they play.

It seems like a lot of people out there don’t need more than 5 exclusives to warrant buying a console.

Mario Kart is such a universally loved game. I know people that rarely play any games, but are always down for Mario Kart. Shit, my boomer aunts owns a switch solely for Mario Kart 8 and Animal Crossing. She doesn’t even care about anything else, and just plays it here and there in her free time.

Another factor is that the Switch is a huge selling point for children. A lot of kids were probably hyped for the Switch 2, more than PS5 or Xbox. I’m talking ages 7-12 and stuff. The market for the switch allows it to sell more. It’s more casual and less hardcore. A parent is more likely convinced to get their kid the Switch 2 than the PS5 or Xbox.

Gaming is becoming increasingly more popular than it ever was. Increasingly more acceptable in society. Kids are adapting way more to electronics than ever before. There’s a reason why the Switch 2 sells more than the Steam deck. Think about it. What are some of the most popular films of the last few years? Sonic and Mario? Minecraft? When a parent sees those games on the switch, are they buying their kid that or a Steam Deck/ PlayStation?

Next time you’re out, go to a Target or Walmart electronics section, and see the difference between the Nintendo aisle and the Xbox/Sony aisle.

PC handhelds were always an enthusiast product so it's always been bizarre to see people discuss items that move in the hundred thousands vs ones that move in millions. They don't advertise on TV like a mainline console, the form factor always existed but the Switch took up it's space in public awareness. It simply never operated on that level.

Same boat here.

I feel like there’s such a desire to make discourse all or nothing.

The Switch 2 can be financially very successful, and the criticisms many folks had can also be valid.

Didn’t buy one, don’t care about those who did. But this need to make is an abject failure or an overwhelming success with nothing in between is weird.

There was a thread where an ex Sony CEO or something said "Nintendo is the only console company really in touch with what their fans wanf". Every comment was like "wow complete bullshit" because in the little reddit echo chamber they only ever see each other hating on Nintendo, but in the real world Nintendo has a complete monopoly on family friendly consoles, and portable gaming that just works without having to tinker. And both of those markets are fucking huge, hence the record breaking sales.

Ironically people who don’t complain about pricing are probably more reactive to it. Casual guy who just wants to chill after work with a game, parents, folks who just wanted something to do on the bus, etc… The switch 1 was inexpensive enough to be attractive to them but they aren’t going to be online complaining about Nintendo.

I suspect sales are currently very heavy on the core Switch fan base which is also the group most likely to bitch.

I’m glad it is doing well but how it is trending to Switch 1 will be irrelevant when it gets to the Switch 1 covid bump in March/April 2020. There is no way Switch 2 stays above the Switch 1 sales trend once the timeline gets to that point.

Nintendo Switch has now sold 153.10 million units

Posted by Honest-Word-7890 · in r/totallyswitched · 2 months ago

Nintendo has provided update sales figures for the original Nintendo Switch system revealing that the brilliant little system has shifted over 153.10 million units since it launched March 2017 worldwide. It has achieved this figure without having an official price cut, which is astounding. The console needs to sell less than a million units before it outsells the Nintendo DS. The biggest goal is surpassing Sony's popular PlayStation 2 console... goal that should be reached within the year 2026.

Honest-Word-7890 · OP · 2 months ago

The two are unrelated. It's simply more difficult to develop for Switch 2, it takes longer because assets are more and of higher quality, that is the problem with modern platforms. Actually, having games released for Switch let Switch 2 owners play with more games and on proper Game Cards instead of empty Game-Key Cards.

1 upvotes on reddit

driley97 · 2 months ago

As it relates to the development of Switch 2 games being more difficult due to increased quality and more detailed assets, Nintendo’s own release schedule determined that that is a lie in the case of first parties). They have enough games slated for this year to carry on the 1 game per month release cadence they have held since the beginning of the Switch 1 generation, and they likely have plenty of titles to fill out a full release calendar for 2026 as well.

Now, 3rd parties are happy to use that excuse as much as they want, but we all know that there still aren’t many Switch 2 dev kits for third parties so that is significantly slowing down the rate of games coming out on the Switch 2 exclusivity or older games getting updated for the Switch.

many people bought PS2 for a DVD player and never bought a game. Remember how much money dvd players were.

Switch did basically the same number in only 8 years and 1 generation.
