Nintendo SWITCH (OLED Model) Information II - Fastest Second Console Thread of All Time

[Melena]

The fact that the tech demo they announced is a PAID TECH DEMO to show you how the system works is one of the most brazen moves I've seen in a while. Even Sony gave you the Astrobot tech demo when PS5 launched.

That shit is crazy lol. Fuck Nintendo.

Valve also released a free tech demo game for the steam deck as well. Aperture Desk Job. And for a quick 20 minute game, it was hilarious

$10 price increase on "physical" copies. Said physical copies are glorified download codes with no game data on them. What are they even thinking with this one. I guess they got pissed at people dumping carts for emulation?

[Madeline]

need that launch model for the vulnerabilities

If it's true the actual game isn't on the cards and just a glorified download code, this might be the first generation I put on my pirate hat for 100%. over $100 games including today's tariffs? Yo hoo, yo hoo..

Can see it listed on the Bravely Default packaging.

Yeah, that's a hard pass. This doesn't look better than my deck. I have a feeling it wont take much for emulators to suddenly start playing switch 2 games.

They announced that is what they're doing. No conspiracy.

Didn't they say that's only some of them? Game-key cards vs Game cards?

Yeah, but in the Switch 2 thread, I posted a dev interview where they state they created new hardware for the system and previous physical methods are not compatible. If you search the Nintendo website, game cards are not listed for the new system, only key cards.

Wait does that mean Switch 1 carts wont work on this cause fucking ROFL if so.

Digging deeper, the messaging is confusing. You might be able to use carts, but you won't get all of the capabilities. All Switch 2 physical titles will be released as "keys", though.

I feel like you are reading too much into it from a clarifying article. Gonna need more confirmation that there will ONLY be game-key cards.

Official Cyberpunk announcement on CDP site mentions the game comes on a 64GB game card, I don't think they would say that if it only was a game-key card.

70 gigs when i checked, would still need at least partial download

Where did you see 70gb?

Nintendo Switch 2 owners can purchase the game on launch day in a physical 64 GB game card or digital download from the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch 2.

was basing it on based on what's already out. maybe they found a better way to compress but any platform i could purchase that game right now, it'd be 70gb; steam and ps5 both gave me as 70gb as min requirements

I'm fucking hype new birthday present let's go

They could definitely shave it down another 6GB by reducing texture or audio quality
