Thoughts About THAT Switch 2 Leak
Apparently there are some leaked renders of the Nintendo Switch 2 floating around online today, and I have a few gut-reactions to the specs and feature's we've seen.

Who is the PS5 Pro Actually For?
Просмотров 6 тыс.14 часов назад
Sony announced the PS5 Pro earlier this week, and it had me asking a lot of questions about how it fits into the overall PlayStation strategy. Mark Cerny used his "big three" to talk about the device, so I implemented my own "big three" to talk about why I think the Pro might not be the thing Sony should be focusing on releasing right now. I also forgot to mention it doesn't have a disc drive!!...

The Nintendo Switch 2 is rumored to be getting announced as soon as this month, which means this is my final shot at throwing a bunch of predictions and wishes at the wall before we learn more form Nintendo themselves.

Microsoft’s Cancelled Xbox: Keystone
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.14 дней назад
Xbox was pretty publicly working on a third member of the Xbox Series family for a few years called "Keystone" which would have been a streaming-only set top box for games played through Game Pass and xCloud. The device never materialized, and I wanted to look at why they were building it in the first place, why I was so personally interested in one, and why it never saw the light of day despit...

Tamoor Hussain's Street Fighter: The Movie
PS5 is one of the ugliest consoles of all time. I was hoping with the Pro, we would get a redesign. We got the same dumb looking system. I guess I will pass on it. The PS4 is still a great system, with tons of great games out for it.
may be wishful thinking, but i think there's a possibility elden ring is the skyrim of switch 2
my toxic trait is watching this and thinking “yeah i could do that.”
Idk why people keep expecting better ergonomics thats impossible unless nintendo drops the share gimmick
Every shooter game having Gyro-Aim would be super cool. RDR2 was so boring to play on console because the aim was atrociously slow even on the highest sensitivity.
I think there will likely be an xbox collab for the “skyrim” moment since they seem big on being on other consoles atm. Hi fi rush is a game that was rated on switch but has been unseen since it was reported and switch 2’s specs aren’t a huge stretch from a series s. That or horizon zero dawn since it was mentioned in a nintendo survey
the two usb c ports for those who can charge it using the Switch stand its not rocket science.
Love your videos dude
yo thank you so much 🫡
I wonder if there'll be a larger/smaller version of the new switch? Like a Switch 2 XL and a Switch 2 Mini? I know that's kind of similar to what the Switch Lite already is, but it'd be nice to get a version that's even more pocket-friendly, even if it comes at the cost of a dip in computing power

My vote for the 3rd party game to sell this console would be Monster Hunter Wilds. It's extremely unlikely granted, but I can't think of any older game today that would fill the niche that Skyrim did where people still find ports of it exciting. Especially with the steam deck being a thing now, any of those older games like RDR2 can just be played handheld that way, it's not novel anymore. But a brand new game? And one that's a sequel to monster hunter rise, literally the best selling third party game on the switch? Now that would be something worth the upgrade I think, if Nintendo and Capcom were able to make it happen.
unless I'm misreading the leak it also looks like it might have a built in Ethernet port which would be pretty cool for online stuff
I think im getting a ps5 pro just because I dont have the ps5 and you know... why not at this point
i hope the ram is used to let us do things like stream or listen to music while we play... some of my favorite features on ps5
3:00 could also be for charging in tabletop mode
i hope the extra port is for expansion accessories like the port on the back of an N64 controller. i 100% unironically love plugging little gadgets into my game consoles to get gameplay gimmicks that are only used in like 2 games
I think the big 'wow' game for the switch 2 reveal could be elden ring
12gb in 2025 😂 lol lmao even. 12gb is like wearing a extra small shirt when you over 200lb. Yall Nintendo nerds are delusional if you thank that 12 gb is good for modern gaming. But hay yall like 30 fps right? lol lmao even. Hold this L
it wouldnt surprise me if the new usbc port was a combo charging/headphone port with how much more common usbc headphones have become with most high end phones removing heaphone ports.
disappoined that the new switch is likely going to be bigger, i really want it to stay the same size or even go down but oh well... might have to wait for the lite model and hope it is good
I feel like if Nintendo wants to do dual screens that it'd be easier to try a reverse Wii U situation where the console streams video wirelessly to the dock, which outputs to the TV. Assuming they used the same tech as the Wii U, the latency should be very manageable.
I don't see any lights that could glow with a streetpass... 😔😔
I believe it’s fake simply because it looks just like a Switch OLED but bigger. Waiting more than seven years to release a “Switch 2” that isn’t even ergonomically better than the OG Switch makes no sense. If anything , both consoles looking identical will confuse general audiences much more than calling it “Super Switch”.
I just want some color colored buttons color please no black and white
Considering these specs, Switch 2 will be closer in power to PS5 than PS4. Current-gen ports would be relatively easy, way easier than porting PS4-era games to the current Switch.
I just want a better switch but slightly disappointed the lack of new gimmicks. Overall I just want good games
Could add the word new again
just my 2 cents, but have you considered NOT having the bokeh filter on your video? the flickering, especially around your mic, is really distracting
yes!! i am working on getting a new camera to replace the one i’m using for future videos
I mean PS4 ports are cool and all but this is going to be just like the switch for me. As someone who owned an Xbox 360 and wii u....the switch wasn't very impressive to me because I had already played most of the big games on the switch!
Yeah, that guy who leaked it (if it's even legit) is getting fired
I think the top usb would be cool for dual screen use possibly. Maybe they will make a monitor add on, and add ds games to the library.
I've been binging this channel and sad to see how little content there is perfect timing on this vid tho
it's too realistic of a spec sheet for it to be made up. That switch rumor that was oval, was based on a patent with sharp display technology. They didn't make use in PC systems, but in car systems. When we recieve cad files that have been confirmed, this is the "fire" not the smoke. this Switch 2 is fixing about 80% of the compaints about switch 1. the USB-C at the top is easier charging and can also probably be used as a USB-c and its functions. The dual screen won't happen, it would require the top hatch to be oled, and to make both screens oled. would make it need to cost closer to 500 dollars. What would be cool to see is xbox gamepass on the system. and other streaming services on the system. if it's only one microphone, it's more likely a game mic for mechanics. For modern voice chat and being pleasant to use, you need 2 or more for beam forming noise cancelation, or AI noise cancelation.
I think it's important to note that while the irl pictures are real, the CAD renders are not, they're just based on the leaked photos. Also specs are not coming from this leak, someone just put them in with the photos, we knew about these specs since may. I say all this because people try to disprove the leak as a whole because the person who made the renders is just sone random 3D enthusiast and specs are old. They're not part of the leak, photos are.
Superb video. Thank you! The first time I've visited your channel. Subbed! 👍
I mean this all comes from a Chinese factory and Nintendo moved away all of his production to Vietnam since 2019.
fingers crossed the double USB-c ports is to support a dual screen set up and the entire Switch 2 library is nintendo 3/DS ports
Just had that thought. They could sell a plug an play monitor and add ds games to the library. Its not far fetched either considering they already sell controllers for their other emulators.
i'm not too worried about the storage space in it, the switch one supported up to 2TB SD cards, i would be shocked if the switch 2 doesn't support bigger cards
Bigger and faster cards!
I’m excited to stop speculating about this thing and finally see it. Seeing this leak made me realize that I’m really much much more interested in seeing software and OS than I am the hardware so being on that reveal trailer and then big hour-long presentation we’re gonna have to wait until January or February for!!
Something wild I see xcloud coming to switch. Later in the life of it.
the dream!!
I hope the OS has more flavor to it. A refocus on miis, theme store, or even something like Wara Wara plaza on the Wii U would be very exciting
absolutely, the personality of the 3ds and wii u made them so memorable, switch OS feels really corporate and bland. we need themes at the *very* least!
YES, heavy on the theme store , I don’t know what possessed them to get rid of that for the switch
BIG agree
Yeah I think because the hardware is so similar they need to differentiate it from a software and UI standpoint. Gimme themes again!!
I hope it won’t be bloated like the Xbox os and ps5.
Also...i have this strange feeling the "Skyrim game" for Switch 2 is a Fromsoftware game. Maybe Elden Ring? Maybe a Bloodborne port? That just popped into my head, thinking about it.
I’d also accept the Dark Souls trilogy
5:49 Elden Ring would be a good showcase game too.
if the switch 2 is capable of handling elden ring ill sell my ps5
Doesn't it run like ass in the other current gen consoles? Wouldn't there be a huge compromise in quality?
@@rDuskHuntress I thiiink it would run better than on the base PS4/Xbox One at least..? I really don't know, people seem very optimistic about the Switch 2's power but I don't want to overestimate it either.
if they release gta 5 and elden ring on it, i'll buy 3.
I just want the playful nintendo vibes back, the 3ds and wii u just have a charm to them that the switch lacks
Yes but the games are the charm. Plus playing handheld switch has a ton of charm to me. It’s just fun.
@@Ray-dl5mpyep they put too much fluff and they failed to deliever
@@dxtremecaliber it’s basically a perfect console generation. If that’s a failure then I don’t think success exists in your mindset. Sounds like you subjectively don’t like it which is a different thought. Anyone can dislike anything. Doesn’t mean it wasn’t extremely successful and fun for many.
@@dxtremecaliber failed to deliver? tell that to the 143 million units it sold, that's just a delusional take. I want themes and fun UI stuff too, but at the end of the day you buy consoles for exclusive titles, switch dominates there.
i feel this! the Switch is soo good but its vibes are just so practical and no-nonsense. i want just a *little bit* of impractical nonsense back
I feel like Nintendo's logic about making it bigger is "If people want it smaller, theyll buy our new Switch 2 Lite. If people want it more comfortable, theyll buy new Hori controllers." For me, all my hopes and dreams lie in the firmware, or whatever the term is for the menus. If I were Nintendo, i'd be trying to differentiate this gen from the Switch gen by trying to pack a lot of personality, features, and customization into the firmware like how 3DS and Wii U had. A revamp of all of that plus the eShop is probably my biggest wishlist items. I also think the new "gimmick" could just be something in the firmware instead of hardware, almost like Streetpass.
Omg the goat uploaded
No fake grains of salt here
If true, I'm pretty happy with it. I love the Switch as it is, as a piece of tech. Quite literally JUST making it bigger and more powerful is really all I need. I do get some people's disappointment though. Pre-Switch/Iwata era Nintendo loved going all out and weird and different with their tech, which both worked and didn't. But honestly I don't think this is bad either. The Switch struck a cord with people and this continues the momentum by embracing the brand. (And doing it alot better than the "Wii U" 😅)
yeah i personally can't really see a reason to be disappointed by "what if the switch was as powerful as the ps4." kind of the dream, tbh. i'm not THRILLED about the size, but i'll put up with it considering the kinds of games we know nintendo will make to utilize the hardware. i still think there's another shoe to drop in terms of functionality, too. there's gotta be SOMETHING weird in there.
@itswavelengths oh I'm sure 😀 I mean the Switch came with that inferred camera (or whatever it was) in the joycon that literally NO ONE used. Nintendo will put SOMETHING random in this thing.
If Sony does announce Zero Dawn remastered, that might push some PlayStation gamers over the edge.
