Switch SP and Switch XL both look great. Just as long as they can both dock and use standard joycons.
Good work on this!
I would like Nintendo to try doing an iOS style formula with more frequent iterative updates across multiple form factors. So hardware updates and new features would be capable of supporting all prior software in a similar fashion. That is, some iPhone apps are not perfect on iPad and vice-versa, but users are not prevented from playing them. Developers, in time, often create optimized versions depending on the hardware.
Also, frequent chipset updates. I would love to see an NSi next year, and then an NS2 in 2019, and an NS pocket. With all software requiring mandatory support of NS1 until 2022, all supporting NSi until 2023, all supporting NS2 until 2024, and so on. Then after those dates, leave it up to the publisher. But say it is 2021 and NS3 is out, and as a hypothetical example, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 is launching; the game would have to be playable on NS1, but only in downscaled form from NS3. In other words, when played on NS3, all of the extra graphical features would be activated: higher resolution, more colour, more contrast, higher frame rate, draw distance, etc...
Meanwhile, Breath of the Wild 1 would be playable on all Nintendo hardware going forward.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
