4:39 Those consoles all had a multitude of reasons for not selling as much as their predecessors. Boiling it down to their names feels like a bit of a simplification.
I always thought it would be called "The Nintendo Swap" and the gimmick would be the ability to swap on different kinds of joy cons, similar to the accessories for the Wii
I really don't see how calling it the 'Nintendo Switch 2' would cause it to underperform. In my eyes, 'Switch 2' conveys to customers that it's like the system they already own but essentially the next generation of it or a newer and more powerful version of it. Apple and Sony do the same thing with the iPhone and PlayStation; they're new versions of the same thing, plus each new version is a hardware upgrade of a previous version. They can really call it anything as long as they don't do a repeat of the Wii U and make things confusing for customers, but to me, a number can convey a lot more in a tech product than you think, and there's no reason it can't convey a hardware upgrade.
@@IshaBoiAlex Switch two is such a generic name it’s lacking any spice or personality Nintendo isn’t Sony they’re way more creative Nintendo Switch Warp Nintendo Switch Fusion Nintendo Switch Morph Nintendo Switch Swap Lots of switch synonyms that could work
@@madnessarcade7447 You neglected to mention the fact that Sony also came up with the names PocketStation, PSP Go, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation Move and PlayStation Portal for some their handhelds and accessories. To say that Sony isn't creative is a little misleading despite their main home consoles only having numbers at the end of their names. Nintendo could very well add a synonym at the end of "Nintendo Switch" to differentiate it from the og system much like how Sony does it to differentiates their handhelds and accessories from their home consoles, but assuming the Switch 2 is the next mainline Switch console and not a one-off like a portable-only one, an all-digital one, one with an entirely unique gimmick, etc., I would be more than happy with the name "Nintendo Switch 2". I just hope they don't go with "Nintendo Switch Attach" lol
I would assume if nintendo named their next console the switch 2 I would assume it would sell more than the wii u but parents would say "don't you already have a nintendo switch?"
What about Nintendo Attach Switch. The major selling point are extra accessories to attach into, like a screen, VR head-strap, a camera. These can also be wireless used when docked, which goes hand in hand with the hybrid concept to allow even more possibilities. Customer can choose one of the accessories with the console and buy more if they want.
I just wish people understood that the "switch 2" isn't coming out until sales dip below the competition, so long at they are the top sellers they have zero incentive to dust off the completed switch successor, it doesn't matter how much we moan about the graphics if our wallets say otherwise
Switch Deluxe. It’s ONLY backwards compatible but all games cost £50 to be upgraded to the next game to its deluxe version with the only difference people the title page and a free Player Icon
I was literally talking to someone about this topic in college and wow I can finally figure out if it’s possible and what name would fit for you know the new switch
I once had an idea of a Nintendo successor console using magnets to connect controllers and screens together in many ways (Which ironically is what it is rumored to have) And the name i came up for such a concept is the Nintendo Magnum I love that idea to this day
Wii U name means Wii wanna play with U It’s an underrated system everywhere be who owned one enjoyed their time with it if more people gave it a chance they would have realized that All their hate is just assumptions
I mean sure but the fact that the Wii had an absolute gargantuan amount of peripherals and games with the "Wii" moniker definitely hurt the Wii U. Some people today still don't know it's a different console and that's really telling how self-destructive the name was at the time.
Dude, I sold computers for a while, started when Windows 7 was out well into 10. After 10 came out, I waited year for a customer to ask me about why there’s no Windows 9 so I could blurt out because Windows 7 8 9. No one ever asked me though! I would even lean heavily on hints, mentioning 8 to 10 over and over.
The idea I got is the Nintendo Keypad. 3Ds had the 3D mode and duel screan, WII U had the remotes. And switch is the removable joy cons. The Nintendo keypad...has Mini keyboards on the sides u can remove them like switch. There's a mouse on the back and...there's a CRAZY SETTINGS app. U can turn on 3D mode from 3ds. If u buy it with in the first month of purchase or Enter a very complex cheat code. Basically u can see the codes for ur game. U can also fly around through walls and look at the codes or unlock stuff that was removed from games. U can also use a blue screan mode if u enter a certain code. The blue screan is like on pc u actually have the screan get blue when you get far away from it. Like that and also it pin points anything with AI. (You can't use Demo mode in ONLINE mode so u can't fly around in online games like Splatoon or luigis mansion scarescraper. Also the launch games should be a 3d Land port. $40 dollars and not $60 Hopefully and mabye a new 3D mario game. This is my idea
Okay, so friend of mine, who I’ll call Kibble, said names don’t matter. He said the entire Wii U confusion came from lack of games. He said something along the lines of, “it could be named turdmaster and it would get all sorts of popularity if it has good games,” and “it could have the best name ever but that wouldn’t matter if it doesn’t have games…” Now, look, I understand games are a major thing, but do realize if the moniker sticks, all hells gon break loose. But, at least people won’t think it’s an add-on if it has 2 at the end… but please, don’t let the moniker stick!
Either the Super Nintendo Switch 2 or the Super Nintendo Switch Pro. Or they could be clever and call it the Super Nintendo Experience Switch. Which the acronym would be SNES.
What if it is just the nintendo because when you think about it the NES wasn't called the entertainment system, it was an "entertainment system" but by nintendo. now we dont call consoles entertainment systems, so if it would release today it would be just nintendo
I think it is most likely to be named the super nintendo switch (SNS sounds cool and nice callback to SNES ) but if it is super nintendo switch, the code name would probably be SNX, but it isn't. it can also be called new nintendo switch but i just find that name kinda dumb (even tho they did that 3 times already). also the name could be something completly different like a random cool name, and the code names often doesn't match the console (why tf is gamecube a dolphin). What if it's called the nintendo ultimate rectangle, or the Nintendo switch 4k RTX heck it could even be called the nintendo 8 inch [still fucking hate the switch OLED name]
@@alpha_0277I’m pretty sure game cube was dolphin because one of the debut games for the game cube was Mario sunshine in which the map is “Isle Delfino” (basically Spanish for dolphin or something like that) and it’s shaped like a dolphin too
The only importance of the name of the next console is that it makes it obvious to everybody that it is a new, separate console and not an accessory or attachment to the Switch 1. The console could be called “Nintendo Console” or “Nintendo Mega Ultra Magneto Switch Pro Max” for all I care, I care about games and performance a heck of a lot more.
I agree that the name is going to be very important. My concern is that I just read through all 121 comments on this video, and not a single name idea seems great. Nintendo will likely call it Switch 2 just because it's near-impossible to come up with a great name. A lot of catchy and powerful words are taken by other products already.
Your video is basically telling me that Sega had the best names for there consoles since they were brought up in the video because no one in the present day is not going to give names like "Genesis", "Mega Drive", and "Dreamcast"
It’s dumb to say it will sell less because of a number next to it, when you look at Apple, Samsung and Sony, that’s just not true. The number conveys new and increases sales
I honestly don’t think the Wii U was a add on to the Wii, it had a lot of new games and fun mechanics and you had a gamepad connected to a console, which yet I still haven’t see any console do any thing similar to that.
Hey, hear me out... Nintendo Flipswitch. An nintendo switch with 2 flippable screens on its back which magnetize to the Joy Cons, Turning them into an Device similar to an 3DS with data carried from your Switch. An Joy Flipper. It's Detachable (Together with the Con) and you can bring it with you in your pocket with less worrying that it would fall to the ground. The docked screen would act like more of a Wi-fi Router than anything, you could use a passcode to temporarily cut the connection from your Dock, and start connection with another! Simplifying local multiplayer. It could even magnetize to the screens of other Joy Flippers! Just gently Bump the screens into each other and BOOM! It's Connected. Co-op has never been easier. That's it! Whaddaya think?

Hear me out “Nintendo Snap”, due to the ability to snap out the magnetically attached joy-con from the screen and snap it back.
It does have a good ring to it
great idea
It does sound pretty cool,
You should probably tell them about that name
Bonus points if the console comes with a camera and some sort of built-in photo editing software
It better have a camera, if they calling it a snap
The Nintendo Switch 2 is called the “Nintendo Focus”.
That's just a rumor so far, but it's a cool name indeed.
