So what do we think launch titles will be? I am guessing Mario Kart 9 with a 3D Mario a few months later. I am also expecting/thinking a 1440p/60fps Breath and Tears, question is if that will be upscaled via BC or require re-buying the entire games. Knowing Nintendo it will be a re-buy.

Thinking of the next Mario Kart .... Kind of incredible of even today, MK8 DX managed to be such a showcase title for the system during it's whole.

I wonder if they'll be capable of pulling another ace like they did that time for the sucessor.

I remember reading somewhere that the Switch OS uses 750MB of RAM to run. Another 96MB is taken by the system if a game uses the recording feature. I searched about it today and aparently the source of this information is a leaked document for developers that I couldn't find, so yeah, take this information with a huge grain of salt.

I don't think this number is false however, it's less RAM than what the Wii U used but there's a lot less going on in the Switch OS. I also don't think they will reserve 4GB for the OS, it's probably going to be something like 1-2GB.

Using that extra GB to actually make sure the Eshop functions well I suppose 🤭

I think the S2 will be successful, but overall I don't see them repeating the switch's success, just because of how absurd it has performed.  I'm still amazed at how well the Switch is selling and how much software it is pushing.  I think a fast start for the S2 (in sales) is important to get third party to take it seriously.  Mario Kart 9 would do that with ease.  And I can't imagine how cool it would be to play Mario Kart with ps4-ish range graphics.  It will be such a huge step up compared to what we currently have.
