I'm not gonna lie, I fully thought you had been calling it "Switch 2" as a lazy placeholder for whatever name it was gonna end up with, at no point did I expect it to actually be called that💀
@@novajohansson3194 Than you are the one that is out of touch when it comes to naming not Nintendo. You expect way too much from your fellow consumer. Not everybody who like the Switch or Nintendo in general is a Nintendo fan. And the Switch in itself is still the gimmicky name, its a 'Nintendo Switch', its still variates on their overal console line but they didnt abandon the concept like before so its the Switch 2. Also know that their are more handheld consoles out there who basically capitalized on the Switch its succes so its dumb if Nintendo ditches that as the 'originator' just to force their 'creative self'. It would only make the Switch 2 seem as a competitors consoles where they have market heavily with Mario or Zelda to differentiate themselves instead of just building of the Switch 1s name and presence as a console. The Playstation always builds of the succes off the old gen console before the current one. Why not let that work for the Switch 2.
I can tolerate the dumb name, I guess, but the logo is even more of a travesty. A 2 next to the Switch logo. WOW, real creative geniuses over there at Nintendo. Must be taking hints from Microsoft on how to name things, though. Technically they're following Sony, but "PS2" rolls off the tongue really well. What the fuck are you gonna shorthand the Switch 2 into? "S2"? I'm not saying that.
I think Nate The Hate deserves some apologies because I was in a livestream yesterday, and lots of people made fun of him and talked bad. We know the leaks and rumors played with people's patience and faith, but he just said what he was told. I can imagine the console in white color, I'd buy it for sure
He just said what he was told about a Switch Pro years ago, and most of the Spawncast won't even say that was real. That's honestly one of my small issues. When your own group leaves you out to dry, you start looking at both sides cautiously.
Not sure i like that physical pin connector either side of the screen the joycons plug into, I can imagine that could wear out/damage over the years if the joy cons are in and out a lot.
Nate came through. I guess we should be giving him more credit than normally from now on lol. Also seeing that we will get the price and release date during the April Direct, Im expecting the release to be in September/October to be ahead of the holiday season
Nate parroted others after the fact... (1 week ago) "The leaker of the date of the PS5 Pro and Nintendo Alarm, published the announcement date of the Nintendo Switch 2" Average Lucia Fanatic: "I have a date for y'all. 17th Jan 2025" also adding Mario Kart 9.
Switch 2 will be the most underpowered (excluding Nintendo) at launch. The Switch 2 was already supposed to come out in March 2024. Being on par with the PS4 will soon be Switch era all over again when the PS6 comes out 18 months after the Switch 2.
So what’s the title of the new Mario Kart?

Already driftin from day one 3:32
Lol
I'm a little concerned about the tabs on the side of the switch that is going to the joy-con. I'm wondering how easily they are to break or wear down over time. I mean, how many phone cables have we all gone through in the past year alone?
Won't be an issue if it's not soldered directly onto the board
Hello, Humans
If you don't have expectations, a human can never disappoint you.
TERRANCE OUT
Switch Pro got sat on so long it turned into Switch 2.
Really skeptical about these live reaction videos. I'm pretty sure John will have watched this before this video and knew exactly what was coming up.
Now we can start those switch 3 rumors 😏
but before that theres going to be a Switch 2 Lite, Switch 2 OLED...maybe Switch 2 PRO...rumors.
The internet owes Nate an apology.
No. He owes the internet an apology for leaking shit.
Nate dont miss
Just parroted others... (1 week ago) "The leaker of the date of the PS5 Pro and Nintendo Alarm, published the announcement date of the Nintendo Switch 2" Average Lucia Fanatic: "I have a date for y'all. 17th Jan 2025" also adding Mario Kart 9.
Looks good; wish they showed more though
Your videos are always so helpful, thank you!
After 777 switch 2/pro videos i bet youre feeling more relieved than a prisoner taking a piss after 3 days of holding it in.
I'm not gonna lie, I fully thought you had been calling it "Switch 2" as a lazy placeholder for whatever name it was gonna end up with, at no point did I expect it to actually be called that💀
Could be a Wii U naming fiasco all over again😂
Jon didn’t know the name either. Nobody did. A lot of us were hoping for The Super Switch. Aw well.
@@novajohansson3194 doubtful.
@@novajohansson3194 Than you are the one that is out of touch when it comes to naming not Nintendo.
You expect way too much from your fellow consumer.
Not everybody who like the Switch or Nintendo in general is a Nintendo fan.
And the Switch in itself is still the gimmicky name, its a 'Nintendo Switch', its still variates on their overal console line but they didnt abandon the concept like before so its the Switch 2.
Also know that their are more handheld consoles out there who basically capitalized on the Switch its succes so its dumb if Nintendo ditches that as the 'originator' just to force their 'creative self'.
It would only make the Switch 2 seem as a competitors consoles where they have market heavily with Mario or Zelda to differentiate themselves instead of just building of the Switch 1s name and presence as a console.
The Playstation always builds of the succes off the old gen console before the current one. Why not let that work for the Switch 2.
I can tolerate the dumb name, I guess, but the logo is even more of a travesty. A 2 next to the Switch logo. WOW, real creative geniuses over there at Nintendo.
Must be taking hints from Microsoft on how to name things, though. Technically they're following Sony, but "PS2" rolls off the tongue really well. What the fuck are you gonna shorthand the Switch 2 into? "S2"? I'm not saying that.
RIP "New Super Nintendo Switch" 😔
RIP. I wanted this.
Thanks to all the leakers for ruining this reveal. 😡
I think Nate The Hate deserves some apologies because I was in a livestream yesterday, and lots of people made fun of him and talked bad. We know the leaks and rumors played with people's patience and faith, but he just said what he was told.
I can imagine the console in white color, I'd buy it for sure
People diss Nate because he’s pretentious and annoying. I didn’t see any of these comments but he probably deserved at least most of them.
A bunch of adults talking shit to a dude for having a guess is next level nerdism. 😂
He just said what he was told about a Switch Pro years ago, and most of the Spawncast won't even say that was real. That's honestly one of my small issues. When your own group leaves you out to dry, you start looking at both sides cautiously.
Not sure i like that physical pin connector either side of the screen the joycons plug into, I can imagine that could wear out/damage over the years if the joy cons are in and out a lot.
That's a brand new Mario Kart game!
No one cares about Mario Kart
@iflgames3245 70 million people who purchased Mario Kart 8 would say different.
@@jessewalters811 soccer mum's and babies, and elderly people not gamers.
6:52 where i live i see the 4th of feb
Same, I hope it's the case
its 2nd april, i checked their website
Why do i have to read it the American way
I just realized they made it 2:22 on purpose lol
lol
I'll be honest man Switch 2 to me looks more like updated Switch model
Henceforth he shall be dubbed Nate the Great!
Nintendo indeed walks to the beat of their own drum haha.
That, right there is a new Mario Kart.
I saw that too!
Not going to replace my switch OLED anytime soon ….
Lol, you will when the new games aren't coming to the Switch
It was widely anticipated that it will be made public on Thursday. "They just shadow dropped the reveal," said Spawnwave.
You missed it. That's a new mariokart
Switch 2 is cool and all... BUT IS THAT A NEW MARIOKART!!!
🤓 "is that a new mario kart"
Yeah same game new console enjoy 😂
"Here comes the new boss, same as the old boss"
Switch 1.2
Very well done, appreciate this video!
You did it bro after predicting everyday for 3 years you nailed it
This gave me even more respect for the Wii U than I already had.
I love the Wii U but why exactly do you feel this way?
Nate came through. I guess we should be giving him more credit than normally from now on lol. Also seeing that we will get the price and release date during the April Direct, Im expecting the release to be in September/October to be ahead of the holiday season
Nate said to expect a May / June release

Miyamoto watching Spawnwave confirmed.
We got switch 2 before silksong.
Actually forgot about that game already until you reminded me 😅
And MP4

feels more like a Switch XL than a net gen system
Goes to show, Nintendo watches News Wave.
Switch 2 will be the most underpowered (excluding Nintendo) at launch. The Switch 2 was already supposed to come out in March 2024. Being on par with the PS4 will soon be Switch era all over again when the PS6 comes out 18 months after the Switch 2.
Yep. Nintendo is always 2 gens behind.
Being powerful doesn't equal good games
we can still cancel nate if we want
