I keep saying it, but it’s kinda crazy that people actually thought there was gonna be a Switch that supported 4K. I know there were the rumors and reports, but still, it was always such an unrealistic expectation, and so many people were just totally convinced this was gonna happen.
This is why leakers are fucking stupid. They either make it seem so amazing, and then if what they leak comes out, there’s disappointment because it’s like “oh yeah I saw that in the leaks”. Or if the product doesn’t come out, there is disappointment because everyone was expecting that product. It’s just annoying tbh
Because people are so obsessed with the numbers but not that the game actually looks good. Why do you think Playstation and Xbox scream graphics back and forth and we push consoles to the point where they lag playing games.
Nintendo is really dragging their feet on this again. Not as bad as the Wii to Wii U obviously this Oled Switch is going to sell a lot. But if they actually made a Switch Pro instead with better hardware it would sell even more. They could be saving it for like 2024 or something to do a Switch 2 but eh. They’re comfortable not adding the changes that are desperately needed since they know the regular Switch, Lite, and now the Oled will continue to sell a lot.
justin thomas exactly that was my point they’re just coasting now since anything switch sells so they don’t have to do much work and changes to sell more.
I'm hoping this means a slight price drop for the original switch. I'm one of those fool Tooks who bought the switch lite and while I love it and a Switch Reg won't change my style of Nintendo gaming, but I find myself wanting to play on a TV screen more and more. If I was buying a switch for the first time, I'd get this.
Great video and level-headed take. As an aside, I just wanna ask if you are planning a video on the latest Mario Golf? Your argument about the soft-launch, add content later Nintendo approach feels applicable. Just curious. - Random CZcams commenter.
It's kinda funny how most of the OLEDs changes are more geared towards handheld play... when that's what the Lite is supposed to be. The only thing that affects docked is the LAN port, but with how spotty NSO is it wont make too much of a difference.
The switch was never ment to be a wii u sucessor. In it's prototype design it was just the switch lite that had 3ds support. They desides to make it play on a tv since the machine was capable of being a home console as well and desides to ditch the 3ds support as to dissociate from the previous gen of system to become it's own thing. So it's literally a handheld first in their minds so they are upgrading the handheld side cause they never upgraded their home consoles and the dock is their home console. U see it was planed to just be a handheld and it shows.
I love your voice man it's so funny! It's very Donkey Kongish (and it also sounds like Squidward lol). If they ever make an animated Donkey Kong movie (which they are), you should either voice Swanky Kong (hence your profile pic), or Funky Kong (hence your voice would sound just like what Funky Kong would sound like, and more so than Swanky Kong actually).
Yeah, I don’t know how to feel about it. It’s not really groundbreaking nor exciting. It’s just a Switch with like three new tiny details and it really doesn’t justify its price to be $350. Well I hope Nintendo does better or at least do something to actually make me buy their console or anything really lol.
If Nintendo doesn’t follow up the Switch with a better Switch that’s backwards compatible, I might be done with them. After releasing numerous half-finished games and WiiU games at full price, they really have killed any love I still had for them with this console and the practices that came alongside it. Not that it matters, because everyone keeps buying their crap.
Let’s be honest. People had their hopes too high cause of the leaks. It was never promoted as a pro. Just meant to add a few extra upgrades for people who want a new switch. Also an extra 50 dollars is fair in my opinion.
Plus insiders didnt listen to the components shortage, hence why we don't have a proper seitch pro yet, since laptops or graphics cards are high priority, like how samsung delayed their new phones also
Not when you're selling a known faulty product... remember that drift is an issue and likely will persist. With that in mind they are charging MORE for a product that is known faulty.
Thank you Furukawa for delivering the goods once again! First Mario Golf with FREE UPDATES!? What a deal! And WHITE Joy-Cons that likely still drift? Makes Mario Kart 8 all the more fun seven years later! _I'm not allowed to criticize Nintendo as part of Nintendo Twitter rules and regulations_ ~Their 15 year old lawyers
IG you can be happy about it not being an upgrade since that could mean exclusive games for that version meaning that normal switch users could miss out on
I personally think a switch 2 is coming out in like 2025 and it'll be on par with the Xbox series S and will just feature backwards compatibility with most switch games. That being my assumption, this is likely all we are getting between now and then and they'll likely phase out the standard switch for this over the next 2 years. I'll likely pick one of these up and when the switch life cycle comes to an end and keep it boxed as a replacement for my current switch as all hardware eventually breaks down and newer systems aren't lasting as long as anything pre ps2 era so it's smart to invest in back up hardware at the end of a system life cycle.
When everyone was saying that it was going to be a switch pro, I felt like I was the only one who was going "Nintendo doesn't need to evolve. They could essentially give you the same switch twice and you'd buy it up like a bunch of morons." WHO'S LAUGHING NOW, MATT? WHO'S LAUGHING NOW?
@@mbcmechachu a friend of mine who kept defending Nintendo going "it's already been said! The switch pro is going to be this great device that we should have had three years ago" and scoffed at me when I said it was just going to be a slightly bigger switch.
I mean you basically hit the nail on the head, this is what Nintendo does with handhelds. This is basically just the "XL" version. Though with how late in the life span of the Switch it's coming, would we even get the "New"/Pro at this point? And will it be worth it?
Im happy with this announcement. Not because of anything regarding the switch at all, but because it shows that theyve made visual improvements to the lighting and textures and stuff to the Gen 4 remakes. Colors arent as gross, the battle intro has been tweaked to look different, and the trainer model has been updated.
Finally, somebody else who doesn't want a Nintendo switch pro! As someone who didn't grow up in the wealthiest families I'd rather prefer that all of the devices within the family run at the same consistency rather than having to shell out another $300-400 just to make sure that I'm able to play my games at the best quality they can be.
I've been thinking about upgrading my switch because I had it for years and all this talk about the drift has me worried that the company doesn't care about the quality of the console itself as a whole. Am I paranoid or a skeptical genius who has perfect futurevision?
I mean I've been wanting to get a Switch for the rest of the House to live in the living room after having plenty of fun with my Lite. Now the OLED is just another option to consider. Thanks for the option of a pure white Switch with a bigger screen Nintendo.
I don't own a switch. I was actually waiting to get one since I heard about the pro rumors. And I still wanna get a Switch to support metroid but I don't think I'll buy the OLED model. I'm not gonna play handheld anyway. I'll just have to buy a pro controller so I don't have to worry about joycon drift.
I feel the same, I think we'll get a Pro version like 2 years from now... But at that point the Switch will be knocking on death's door so like what's the point lol. At that point it'll just be best to wait.
Yeah. Plus, the controllers may never change during the Switch's lifetime. That's why fans of the Console have made their own Switch Controllers: Like better Joy-Cons, or better grips for Handheld Mode.
I still have that 1st gen switch so if they bundle something with it or do a special edition, I might try to trade my switch in and upgrade for battery life + storage + slight performance but yeah, I kinda wanted a new nintendo 3ds style upgrade ngl If nintendo would just once, ONCE, for ANY PROJECT say that covid caused development issues, even if it didnt, we'd believe them and many things would be forgiven. But they haven't. So what the actual heck is up nintendooooo
You may say 350 is a price hike for this, but honestly I thought even this would be 400, knowing nintendo. Its so meager and unimportant that I can't even be mad. I too am glad I don't have to buy a new switch at the moment
i feel like it would've been more reasonable if they'd release this model at the same price and stopped selling regular switches since they changed so little. also they could've replaced the d-pad on the joycons with the one from the switch lites, people would've spent so much money on joy-cons.
I’m relieved there isn’t a Pro. I really didn’t want to buy another Switch just to be able to play games at their best. Same reason I never got a PS4 Pro.
IMO having 4K on the switches screen is pointless. 4K is only good on large displays so having either a 1080p or 1440p screen would be better for a pro model
It is weird that Nintendo is both my fav company and that I also I hate them at the same time. they make so much less great games then they use to in the old days. Mario Odyssey was a 10 for me but I can't think of very many games that I am happy with my switch for compared to my N64, GC, Wii, and yes the WiiU. By the way Uncle Al, This is odd and out of no where, but Have you played Shadows Of The Colossus? It is one of the most Nintendo feeling masterpiece of a game that I have played that was not made by Nintendo.
Personally I don't mind the underwhelming upgrades to the new model. I do like the small upgrades to the undocked experience and content with the current docked experience. It's disappointing that Nintendo only gave small upgrades to the undock experience, but I'm not too upset about that and expected it as nintendo only makes small upgrades in most of their history. I think the $350 is a good upgrade for first generation Switch owners like myself wanting a more prenium undocked experience. If people want some extra power and 4k support. I think a dock upgrade is more appropriate as better display works best on TV screens. 3rd party games are made in powerful nonportable consoles in mind and a beef up dock will make it a that powerful nonportable console.
I mean being honest i just got a new switch me and my roommate both have one, we don’t need another one that isn’t any different from the original model waste of money i’ll stick to the switch i have now and my ps4 to play games it can’t handle
I honestly don't get the hate for this announcement. It doesn't mean a stronger version of the Switch is now confirmed to never release. I get people want a stronger Switch, but what is there to hate on? We've been with this console for so long already, what's another year at this point? You all know that Nintendo disappoints hardcore fans when the hardcore fans get too thirsty and rely on leaks and rumors to give them hope, so why do it to yourselves now? I just don't see the point in getting upset. Especially when the games that sell best on Switch aren't in some unplayable state that absolutely requires a stronger Switch. There's no urgency for one and they know it.
I think the thing is that there are games that don't run well on Switch, especially when it comes to handheld mode. I can understand why people would want better hardware to run those games. I still think a Pro could happen, but probably not for another like 2 years, and by then the Switch will be knocking on death's door. You'll be better off waiting for the Switch successor at that point Haha.
@@UncleAlPlus The visual quality drops significantly for nearly all Switch games in handheld mode. But it's still not what would actually be considered literally unplayable. I know how terrible Xenoblade 2 and Witcher 3 look in handheld mode, for example. But you can still play and finish those games despite the lower res textures and weird frame rate. If that were the case, we would see class action lawsuits coming from Switch Lite owners if games were truly unplayable in handheld mode, rightfully claiming that they could not play certain games even though the Switch advertised that it could. But it's not. My point is: people are right to be frustrated with the fact that they have to wait so long for a stronger Nintendo Switch. But I think directing that frustration at a product not meant for you or people like you (who want a stronger Switch) is pointless and doesn't make anything better for you or anyone else. Nintendo, as a business, needs to maximize sales and, if there's no urgency to make a stronger system or a new generation model, they won't. And there simply isn't an urgency right now and there probably won't be one for a while since the Switch is such a successful console worldwide.
As you stated in your mario golf rushed video I enjoy your title "the guy with the funny voice that insult Nintendo" it is only fitting because it is true 0/
"I don't want to have to pay the most to get the best experience." Unless we're taking any DLC or features that are locked behind a paywall that don't need to be, I don't understand this mindset. If a game played better with better hardware for a more reasonable upping in price, would the base version somehow play worse? Like, how does a better verson's existence degrade the quality of the original? Unless they were priced the same, at which point, everyone could afford the same thing they could before?
I assume you were not around when the PS Pros, or 3DS improved versions come out? New games are designed with those specs in mind and often lag/barely function on the original. It can be abysmal at times. Just like when the next gen consoles come out but port their new games onto the old consoles.
Disappointing, glad I don't need to buy it, I don't go looking for rumors, and I finally beat everything as every character in Isaac Only AB+ on that last bit because not PC Isaac

Unless we're taking any DLC or features that are locked behind a paywall that don't need to be, I don't understand this mindset. If a game played better with better hardware for a more reasonable upping in price, would the base version somehow play worse? Like, how does a better verson's existence degrade the quality of the original? Unless they were priced the same, at which point, everyone could afford the same thing they could before?
I assume you were not around when the PS Pros, or 3DS improved versions come out? New games are designed with those specs in mind and often lag/barely function on the original. It can be abysmal at times. Just like when the next gen consoles come out but port their new games onto the old consoles.
Hm
Saved myself $349.99. :)
I mean, unless your able to pay the cost of enjoying an OLED tv, why bother buying a Switch OLED anyway?
also thank god for not fixing the joycons so I don't have to buy the OLED model.
A harmless dissapointment, I guess. Just a minor revision and not much more.
Lol
Oh boy oh boy hey boy oh boy can't wait not to buy
The leaks probably caused the salt. Man, if I had fairies, I would wish that leaks and rumors would just vanish. (Get the Nickelodeon reference?)
Disappointing, glad I don't need to buy it, I don't go looking for rumors, and I finally beat everything as every character in Isaac
Only AB+ on that last bit because not PC Isaac
Remember when Nintendo had the high ground against SEGA in the console wars. Well Sony has the high ground against Nintendo.
*stares at people still having trouble getting PS5s and Switch still being the best selling console in America* Yeaaaah....sure.....
@@chibi2239 I meant the PS5 is better compared to the switch
@@lightanddarkbros6646 with its $70 games and also drifting controllers?
@@chibi2239 yep
Waste of hardware. Should have made it just a little more, you know, worth the money you know what I mean.
The switch lite is better
Looks like a huge waste of money to me lol.
Jesus why is everyone bitching about this you got a new switch how do you expect a handheld system to run games that work on Xboxes and Playstations
Disappointed but... Meh ..
