they gonna ride the switch till the wheels fall off.

we probably won't get whatever succeeds the switch until maybe 2027.

If they can milk the switch + its iterations, they will. They did the same with the DS and 3DS...and for all intents and purposes the switch has always been a handheld.

I really doubt it would be that extreme. Nintendo definetly has realized how important 3rd party support is. Since it has been the best since the SNES. I'd imagine a brand new next-gen system by 2024 or 2025 at the latest.

Plus looking at their history they support their systems at most 7 years before moving on.

Nintendo has been leaning into the handheld part of the switch way more than the console side. Both new iterations focus on the portable aspect and not the docked technology. The fact that they’re content with the performance of this thing after next gen hardware has come out proves that this thing is more of the next nintendo DS for me. The technology is just not there as a console in 2021

Yo real talk, you can play BOTW 2 at launch if it runs on the Yuzu emulator at 4K like BOTW which shouldn't be an issue.

I might not even fukking bother with it on the Switch.



I'll buy it to support but that's about it.



Oh shyt , can I do this on my mac ? Do i need a gpu to do this ?
