| Yerm said: Im going to keep my expectations a little bit more realistic * Larger screen with a smaller bezel, allowing console to be the same size, and thus compatible with all existing Switch docks * Redesigned dock to prevent scratching * Screen is now glass instead of plastic, will still be 720p undocked, 1080p docked with the ability to play 4K video * 6-10 hour battery life * No more kickstand, instead every Switch 2 just comes with a plastic stand in the box * Improved joy-con mechanisms to help prevent drift, still compatible with all existing joy-cons * Redesigned Home menu and profiles that accurately show play times, add folders, and allow you to remove archived titles from the Home menu * Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, and Youtube support on day 1 * Backwards compatibility with all Switch games * Nintendo 64, Gameboy, and Gameboy Advance apps area dded to the Switch online service * Gamecube games available on the eShop instead of using an app due to larger file sizes |
Keeping expectations in check is fine, as I don't think many of our list are out of the norm of reality. (What Nintendo chooses to do is another factor all together though)
If you asked me years ago I would totally say that Nintendo is a company that just doesn't care about specs at all anymore. But after them making a game like BoTW which cleary could benefit from a system with higher specifications. They know that sacrifices had to be made because of hardware limitations even for a launch game. They have also shown a much greater interest in receiving 3rd party games like they have never publicly shown before.
