Don’t worry, they’ll spare atleast 15 minutes to show off Skyrim on the Switch 2.

Maybe this time it’ll be GTA V

I think that’s the name of Nintendo’s legal department.

Why is this newsworthy?
ampersandrew@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
It’s the successor to one of the most successful consoles ever, and word is Nintendo’s had a lot of games that were done for some time now, but they’ve been holding them back to better position this launch. An hour-long Direct is about twice the usual length, and basically the entire industry is basing its plans around the Switch 2 and GTA6 right now.

I’m honestly curious is the Switch 2 will follow in that success.
Credit where credit is due; lots of kickstarters and small private companies have tried making something like the Switch for years, but very few people knew or cared about them. Then Nintendo pulls it off, which leads to the Steam Deck, which then compells a whole market to spring up for similar format devices.
Now there is a market, with competition from all sides, and Valve seems to be the one most are talking about for this format. Besides crushing emulators, how will Nintendo compete?

You’re asking why news about a new Nintendo console would be newsworthy in a gaming community?

Why is this commentworthy?
kratoz29@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
It is not.

I am hyped

I’m mildly interested in seeing ad-free clips.
NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 3 weeks ago
… The entire hour long show IS an ad.
Tattorack@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Maybe that’s the point. You begin the video, the host says “Hello, and welcome!”, then you immediately stop the video having just watched 15 seconds.
“That was a pretty interesting Nintendo Direct!”

just wait for the MKBHF style vlog overviews. or theverge.com 50 word summary.

Reboot of Mario 35 on launch day please
Num10ck@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
if you guys have any interest in context, theres a great ‘history of nintendo’ on the ‘Acquired’ podcast, starting with gambling cards for the Yakuza in the like 1800s.

Nintendo is never getting another cent of my money.
samus12345@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
They might have from me if the Steam Deck didn’t exist, but their advantage in the past was always being cheaper than the competition. I’m not interested in paying $400 for a locked portable console.

I loved my switch. I spent a lot of time with it. But since getting the steam deck… All the things I can do with it, and the cheap games, and even the high end games that I can play, it’s just too good. I beat hollow knight on my PC. I bought a switch after that, bought hollow knight collectors and never played it. Was fully planning on buying silk song on the switch but now I think I’ll go for the steam version.

Even though I know lemmy is the minority of minority consumer sentiment, it gives me hope that this comment has a decent amount of upvotes in a nintendo post.
Seriously, fuck nintendo’s anti consumer bullshit.

Hell yeah !!

I’m curious what other people’s main gripe is (likely emulation fights?) For my own, it’s when they enacted an assault on Garry’s Mod assets.
That domain never did anything to harm their brand and was a source for tons of fan content. Emulation has its murky arguments about capitalism, but going after GMod was just litigation and harm for its own sake.
