Historically, Nintendo handhelds have sold like hot cakes. GBA to 3DS sales numbers have been insane. Nintendo combining their handheld and home console market is the main reason the switch has sold 140 million consoles.
I haven’t owned a PC capable of gaming since 2004. Just sold my Switch yesterday and bought a used Steam Deck off marketplace for $225. I’m super excited!
Rich Tomorrow: I was wrong! The rumors are bullshit! Nintendo has no plans to make Switch 2. But instead, Nintendo is suing Valve and other PC Companies making Switch Clone PCs without Nintendo’s permission! Let’s get into it!
Nintendo has created a new culture and audience of gamers with the switch. Devices like the Steam deck and rog ally and the PlayStation portal are gonna peck away at some of the sales of the Switch 2, but they aren’t nearly as user friendly as the Switch currently so it probably won’t be a big number of people making the switch, pun intended.
One idea that I personally do not like is having to buy a new piece of hardware every couple of years. So, in a sense, I appreciate that Nintendo has extended the lifespan of the Switch. I just hope that when the new one comes out, it is backwards compatible with the current Switch.
Why are we talking about switch vs steam deck when theres a huge price gap, and weight gap. The steam deck isnt surpassing the switch. I use my syeam deck less than my switch lite. The new rogue like balantro, i chose to purchase for MORE on the switch because i dont want to lug my steam deck around to play the game portably. the switch lite fits very easily in my pockets and work bag
I honestly love nintendo. I have way more nintendo games and consoles than I do anything else. A lot of the games lack graphics but they got a lot for the whole family. When you got 4 kids it helps a lot. I'm still amazed breath of the wild sold more than the switch and wii u.
Just a little while ago he was saying he stop playing other systems because Switch was so easy to play with and carry everywhere. Now his Switch is a doorstep. The guy is all over the place.
People really need to stop ignoring Nintendo's handhelds. Nintendo has always been successful in the handheld market since the 1980's starting with the game & watch. Can we also just admit that the switch is just a handheld console that just so happens to hook up to the tv.
No. We cannot. It’s a hybrid. It runs as both. Choose if you want it as a home console or a portable one. Mine stays docked 90% of the time. For me? It’s a home console. Can you just admit that people don’t need to admit it’s a handheld? 😂🤷♂️
Rich you were on point when talking about the wiiu like 8 yrs ago when i first started watching your content but none of these handhelds are relevant outside of Nintendo's. I don't know a single person with a steam deck. But i know NON GAMERS who have the switch. Switch 2 will be HUGE
I know people with a Steam Deck and they've told me that with how bulky it is it can be inconvenient to lug around compared to how lightweight the switch is.
Funny you say this because most of the people that I know that own a Switch has them like me; collecting dust emulating on at this point much better hardware like the ROG Ally and Steam Deck.
Lol, again, another youtuber missing the point that Nintendo is making money without having to lean on third party AAA titles which are breaking the industry. It's nice Switch 2 will be able to play some of them...but every third party publisher hates competing with Nintendo on a Nintendo playform lol.
You have a listening problem he strait up addressed all the reasons why Nintendo has been at the bottom of the totem pole, the only thing that did well for them was the switch, AND ONLY BECAUSE YOU CAN PLAY 3RD PARTY GAMES.
I think we should also point out that Nintendo Switch forcibly merged their mobile console sales with their home consoles. Nintendo's mobile sales have nearly always been higher than their mainline systems. Honestly the Switch made their revenue streams less protected as before if one system did poor the other would still prop them up. The Gameboy, Gameboy Advanced, DS, and 3DS were all massively successful. It shouldn't be that surprising then that the Switch basically took both those markets in one.
The Switch actually proves that Nintendo doesn't really need 3rd party suport. 99% of big mainstream AAA multiplatform games never came to the Swithc: All new Resident Evil games, all new Assasins Creed, all CoD, GTA V, RDR 2, Sekiro, Dark Souls 3, Elden Ring, Monster Hunter World, DMC 5, Control, and the list goes on and on
Believe it or not, the Nintendo Wii is popular in retirement homes. I have a few friends who work in them and they love them there. So if you have an old wii system you wanna get rid of, consider donating it to a local retirement or nursing home. They love them.
At the end you say you have to be on par or better than your competitors when it comes to power of the console. That is a flawed argument as Both the Wii and Switch were not as powerful than their gaming counterparts but were still very successful. They weren’t more powerful, they were different.
i mean, maybe if valve and ayaneo screams a lot , sony notices and warns nintendo, nintendo might notice and look down from they castle of money they are sitting and starts to think about "oh right, we might do something..............maybe in 10 years" and also, rememeber when nintendo lauched snes, then everyone asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties, then n64 failed, then they asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties and gamecube failed? asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties , nintendo ignored and lauched wii with good games for everyone not just the "gamers" and it was a success? then gamers asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties , nintendo decided to listen and wiiU failed? then gamers asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties , nintendo decide to ignore again and make good cheap tech, and switch became the 3rd most sold console of the history? and now gamers are asking for a new stronger console with 3rd parties. yeaaaaaaaah suuuuuuure, gamer totally NEEED 3 parties and super awesome hardware, look how good ps5 and ayaneo and steam are doing right?.........right?
You need both Jay and his editing to make this channel successful and the views proves it. You need Rich AND Jay to have a successful youtube channel and good 1st party support 😂
Um I think you are forgetting that survey that showed that 3rd party devs are excited for their next system and or currently developing for the switch 2. With that and nintendo holding on to their heavy hitters for switch 2. Then they'll have both a strong 1st party and 3rd party
I cannot believe I was subscribed to this atrocity. I just came back to read the comments about him being destroyed by a female CZcamsr. The new videos are getting worse. Why are people still subscribed?
Actually, it had a lot more to do with then just CD space. Sony agreed to publish Final Fantasy 7 outside of Japan. This was huge for Square because at the time they were struggling with localisation. Nintendo didn't want to pay for it. You can find videos of the original Final Fantasy 7 on the Nintendo 64
You're wrong. Nintendo has no competition. Steam Deck and the like are PCs, not consoles. There is no physical format, resale of games, etc. And Nintendo has already been demonstrating with many of its consoles, Switch included, that it does not need third parties at all. You just have to look at the 20 best-selling Switch games. Not a single third partie. All Nintendo exclusives.
Sega and NEC BOTH had handhelds that played the same games as the big boy consoles. Other companies do things, but Nintendo just always does it better.
@@kenshinhimura9387 it's a handheld. The hardware kind of doesn't matter anyway when studios port them to old platforms regardless, optimization is more important than the hardware
Plus the battery life would be horrendous if the switch were on par with the ps5. The steam deck is slightly less powerful than a PS4 and the battery is barely tolerable.
I agree with most of what you say. I think however they’ll fine. Even if the console is not as powerful as other consoles coming out on 2025/2026, they will have the advantage of games being optimized for the hardware which makes a big difference.
Never forget theyre always steps ahead of what they put out to the market. Thats just on the hardware side. At the end of the day, those steam games are always hand me downs or games that arent exclusive. Nintendo has the strongest first party games out of anyone. And third parties have been fully supporting Nintendo for several years now, this last part isnt going to change.
You are missing the point Rich. 1st party games are the main course for Nintendo consoles. 3rd party games are just the garnish on the plate. People will buy some 3rd party titles when they get a Nintendo console, but it's exclusively the first party games that drive someone to buy the console.
Consoles need two legs in order to be successful. One being first party, the second being third party support. It's how the PS1 got instant success due to Sega and Nintendo making dumb choice, and Nintendo's consoles from the N64 didn't do well until the Switch. Not counting the Wii because it was mostly bought by non gamers for Wii Sports, and then collected dust
I think people tend to underestimate the steam deck's achievement, still. Never before has a console like experince been merged with the flexibilty and customization of pc gaming. Nintendo has to stack high in order to regain those switch sales numbers. Or come even close.
Nintendo stands at a pivotal juncture in the gaming industry, where it should consider the looming competition from emerging portable gaming PCs and potential releases like the rumoured PSP2. With Xbox also contemplating entry into the portable gaming market, the landscape is evolving rapidly. Leveraging their financial prowess amassed from the remarkable sales of the Switch, Nintendo has a golden opportunity to assert dominance once again, should they choose to seize it. Embracing a return to the power narrative and expanding the Joy-Cons to accommodate an 8-inch display, while integrating a dock serving as an external GPU, could propel the Switch into uncharted territory, should Nintendo decide to take this strategic move. Such a decision wouldn't just potentially push graphical performance to rival, or even outstrip, that of traditional consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X; it could also pave the way for ground-breaking consumer products. With an envisioned GPU performance rating of 3.5 teraflops in portable mode and a staggering 14 teraflops when docked, the next iteration of the Switch could redefine industry standards, should Nintendo choose to pursue this path. Moreover, by embracing innovative technologies such as DLSS and Deep Sampling, Nintendo could potentially unlock the full potential of the Switch, offering gamers unparalleled visual experiences. However, Nintendo's innovation doesn't stop there, but it could, should they decide to further explore it. The concept of transforming the Switch into a VR headset equipped with a 4K screen and compatible accessories akin to established VR platforms like Galaxy Gear VR or Google Daydream could be nothing short of visionary, should Nintendo decide to undertake it. Not only would this potential evolution elevate the Switch's capabilities, but it could also open new horizons for immersive gaming beyond the confines of traditional TV play. In essence, Nintendo's potential next move isn't just about releasing another gaming handheld; it's about potentially ushering in a new era of gaming experiences that are not only immersive but also future-proof. By marrying cutting-edge technology with consumer demand, Nintendo could have the potential to solidify its position as an industry leader and potentially redefine the very notion of portable gaming.
The Nintendo Switch is so successful due to various factors. Firstly, of course, there is the innovative approach with the hybrid concept. Due to the flop of the WiiU, they were then able to re-release numerous good games, in particular Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. In addition, the Nintendo Switch - like most Nintendo consoles in the past - has the best range of first-party games. And finally, it also has a solid number of third-party titles. With a more powerful version, the first two points would obviously no longer apply. This means that if you want to have the same success, you would have to compensate for this with even better support from third-party manufacturers. This has indeed often been the problem in the past. Games such as Red Dead Redemption 2, Elden Ring or Resident Evil 4 Remake - or GTA VI in the future, for example - would therefore also have to be released on the new Switch.
@@Mario123007 Yes! Exactly. You admit I am right! "Handheld still counts", when it's Nintendo. The ps5 and the Xbox s/x are NOT a handheld, yet their sales are being compared to sales of the Switch AND Switch Lite, which is a handheld. Should Microsoft add pc sales to Xbox sales? Should Sony add the sales of the ps handheld to ps5 sales? No! But when it's Nintendo "it doesn't matter" that you add sales of a handheld, Switch lite, which is not a home console!
@@blackrosepanther the fact you don't consider handheld a console is where you already lost lol. Handhelds are also video game consoles mind you. And no, PC is not a console cuz you can cutomize it from different brand, you cannot do much wiith home consoles. So face the truth, Switch lite belongs to the Switch family, and Switch is a hybrid CONSOLE, repeat after me: Switch, PS5 and Xbox series X/S are all CONSOLES. And even if you take away Switch lite sales, Switch sits around 116 million units, so what does it matter? lol
My thing I have against the switch is one third party support and optimization for third-party party! For example, Turok 2 on the switch runs well until you go online it tanks so bad! A missed opportunity for that!
Ofcourse Nvidia earned billions with Switch success. It was also known that AMD and Nvdia propose their chip to Nintendo but yeah Nintendo will surely chose Nvdia.
I love Nintendo but they do a lot of anti consumer things like the switch online library could do so much better but I’ll save all my rant and leave you with a quote from the main man him self back in the day. President Yamauchi “ GAME CREATORS CAN FINISH GAMES QUICKLY IF THEY COMPROMISE. BUT GAMERS HAVE SHARP EYES. THEY SOON KNOW IF THE GAMES ARE COMPROMISED. “
Its not even competition as cool as handheld PCs are there still PCs .. There for PC people. Nintendo has the most popular franchises and still make great games all it takes is a new zelda/mario/pokemon and it will destroy in sales compared to steam deck
Sony has been monopolizing the game market since the launch of the PS1so this gives Nintendo and Microsoft and unfair advantage for 3rd party support. Sony is still doing this today.
I think it's more just that Sony has always put far more money in the field than Microsoft or Nintendo. Sony has far more to lose if they fail and Sony also shares talent between gaming and movie making. Sony has been slowly crushed out of every market they once held, they can't lose gaming or they might not survive.
@@Skylancer727 as you say yourself they put far more money in. Nintendo have managed to stay relevant for years and everyone forgets all the handhelds that made them tonnes and the Wii which in relation to other consoles sold so many useless ads ons and gimmick extras. Sony have spent substantial amounts and even when they have sold so many consoles, have still had to claw back the r&d money. Don't get me wrong, it's Sony that changed the gaming landscape on consoles proving that gaming wasn't just for kids. But to be honest, Sony and Microsoft are going the way of the Dodo.....
@chrisbrowne5829 you're joking right? Sony's earnings from gaming last year were ten times either Microsoft or Nintendo. I don't like Sony's game design anymore, but you'd have to be blind to think they're going bust. Nintendo has a far less lucrative market than Sony and Microsoft have continued to use Xbox exclusively as a loss leader. Honestly Nintendo is by far the most likely to fail as they don't even have any external markets to profit off when they flop. At least before Nintendo had handheld to backup on, now they're both in one. And the future of consoles is already dead. Microsoft and Sony have already accepted that the console model is dying, the best business venture is just having your games everywhere people can play them. It's why both Microsoft and Sony put games on PC, why both have mobile streaming, and some games even come to Switch. The console model just isn't as profitable as just getting all the people you can to buy your games. This path is already obvious and Sony even acknowledged games like Ratchet and Clank didn't even profit till it came to external platforms. I mean we're even now entering the AR era where people have a display on their face all the time. What point is there in dedicated mobile screens when we have that? What makes more sense making specialized hardware with games only on it, or just making your games work on people's phones and Vision Pro? I think the answer is obvious and with the new iPhone even running modern Resident Evil, why waste the RND. There's more to making a profit than selling each console at a profit, it still needs to make up the RND.
anyone who buys a ROG or any other portable is going to also want a switch 2. not everyone who wants a switch 2 is going to want a ROG .. furthermore nintendo is nintendo and if they nail it with the backwards compatability its gonna be nintendo mania once again

Ps1 sales = 102.4 million. N64 sales = 33 million. Rich: “ps1 sold almost 3 times more consoles than n64. If PlayStation had sold 20 more million ps1s it would be 3x Nintendos sales” lol good math rich 😂
I feel like there’s a chance given the past where Nintendo gives up 3rd part support to try and control their market. They may go the direction sega did. Nintendo took the majority of 3rd party support from sega in the 3rd and 4th gen. From 5th gen on they kind of went their own way. So sega struggled and I think we will see Nintendo struggle in their next console the way sega did from the 5th gen on. So they may end up like sega in making their games for others hardware. Could go too where they become a hardware dev and Microsoft puts game pass on their system too. Who knows, strange new times.
@@ajzn97 I agree, it’s why I said they went in their own direction as of the 5th gen. But now they face competition from various companies in the hardware type they helped popularize. That could be mirrored when they had the nes sure. But it’s not the same market it was 40 years ago. Nothing is certain, I just know I’d be sad if they stopped making consoles
Rich always seems to forget that not all people are him. In fact, as far as interests and concerns across the larger gaming industry are concerned, he’s in the minority.
At the end of the day Nin does not care if their competitors are powerful & seeing them do a theme park etc just proves that. Nin will be here 1000yrs from now still doing the low power system & their bank accounts full.

One idea that I personally do not like is having to buy a new piece of hardware every couple of years. So, in a sense, I appreciate that Nintendo has extended the lifespan of the Switch. I just hope that when the new one comes out, it is backwards compatible with the current Switch.
Why are we talking about switch vs steam deck when theres a huge price gap, and weight gap. The steam deck isnt surpassing the switch. I use my syeam deck less than my switch lite. The new rogue like balantro, i chose to purchase for MORE on the switch because i dont want to lug my steam deck around to play the game portably. the switch lite fits very easily in my pockets and work bag
I dunno about the GameCube… it had solid 3rd party support.
They had RE4
Such a great system. It did cause me to miss out on some greats though, like Ace Combat and GTA.
I honestly love nintendo. I have way more nintendo games and consoles than I do anything else. A lot of the games lack graphics but they got a lot for the whole family. When you got 4 kids it helps a lot. I'm still amazed breath of the wild sold more than the switch and wii u.
You're using your Switch as a doorstop? Funny, I still play it every day.
Just a little while ago he was saying he stop playing other systems because Switch was so easy to play with and carry everywhere. Now his Switch is a doorstep.
The guy is all over the place.
Because the other handhelds are better. Unless you want to buy Mario buy something else
Nintendo can innovate faster than their competitors can imitate. They always have and they always will.
Yeah and in many case its bot about innovation but how the implement their ideas that makes it novel.
Sometimes they innovate so hard it fails. Virtual Boy/Wii U
Yeah, I also have faith in them as well
@@defaultuser01
Wii U was innovative ( PS portal. ).
It was designed and marketed wrong / poorly.
@@defaultuser01 wii u wasn't innovation really
Misleading title. Nintendo will handle things just fine.
People really need to stop ignoring Nintendo's handhelds. Nintendo has always been successful in the handheld market since the 1980's starting with the game & watch. Can we also just admit that the switch is just a handheld console that just so happens to hook up to the tv.
it's true there handhelds have always been way better than there home consoles.
when pokemon was good
@@elyasshussain5988 pokemon is good currently touch grass loser.
It's a hybrid, it has two power modes, some games are only meant to be played in portable mode, others only in docked mode, it's both.
No. We cannot.
It’s a hybrid. It runs as both. Choose if you want it as a home console or a portable one. Mine stays docked 90% of the time. For me? It’s a home console. Can you just admit that people don’t need to admit it’s a handheld? 😂🤷♂️
You got felted by the casino 🤣🤣🤣
Thought Rich was stopping the news lol.
Rich you were on point when talking about the wiiu like 8 yrs ago when i first started watching your content but none of these handhelds are relevant outside of Nintendo's. I don't know a single person with a steam deck. But i know NON GAMERS who have the switch. Switch 2 will be HUGE
I know people with a Steam Deck and they've told me that with how bulky it is it can be inconvenient to lug around compared to how lightweight the switch is.
Funny you say this because most of the people that I know that own a Switch has them like me; collecting dust emulating on at this point much better hardware like the ROG Ally and Steam Deck.
Lol, again, another youtuber missing the point that Nintendo is making money without having to lean on third party AAA titles which are breaking the industry. It's nice Switch 2 will be able to play some of them...but every third party publisher hates competing with Nintendo on a Nintendo playform lol.
You have a listening problem he strait up addressed all the reasons why Nintendo has been at the bottom of the totem pole, the only thing that did well for them was the switch, AND ONLY BECAUSE YOU CAN PLAY 3RD PARTY GAMES.
Put your kids to bed. Quit making your mom
I think we should also point out that Nintendo Switch forcibly merged their mobile console sales with their home consoles. Nintendo's mobile sales have nearly always been higher than their mainline systems.
Honestly the Switch made their revenue streams less protected as before if one system did poor the other would still prop them up. The Gameboy, Gameboy Advanced, DS, and 3DS were all massively successful. It shouldn't be that surprising then that the Switch basically took both those markets in one.
Yokoi as always was a visionary.
*Game Boy
*Advance
The Switch actually proves that Nintendo doesn't really need 3rd party suport. 99% of big mainstream AAA multiplatform games never came to the Swithc: All new Resident Evil games, all new Assasins Creed, all CoD, GTA V, RDR 2, Sekiro, Dark Souls 3, Elden Ring, Monster Hunter World, DMC 5, Control, and the list goes on and on
Nintendo has cloud versions of reaident evil and doom. I have no idea why
@@ianwest1624 Doom is one of the few major multiplatform games that has a native Switch version and it's actually pretty good (it's not cloud)
@iznax9 wait doom wasn't cloud? I'm surprised it ran very well when my Godson played it on switch.
Believe it or not, the Nintendo Wii is popular in retirement homes. I have a few friends who work in them and they love them there. So if you have an old wii system you wanna get rid of, consider donating it to a local retirement or nursing home. They love them.

At the end you say you have to be on par or better than your competitors when it comes to power of the console. That is a flawed argument as Both the Wii and Switch were not as powerful than their gaming counterparts but were still very successful. They weren’t more powerful, they were different.
*as powerful as

i mean, maybe if valve and ayaneo screams a lot , sony notices and warns nintendo, nintendo might notice and look down from they castle of money they are sitting and starts to think about "oh right, we might do something..............maybe in 10 years"
and also, rememeber when nintendo lauched snes, then everyone asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties, then n64 failed, then they asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties and gamecube failed? asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties , nintendo ignored and lauched wii with good games for everyone not just the "gamers" and it was a success? then gamers asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties , nintendo decided to listen and wiiU failed? then gamers asked for a new stronger console with 3rd parties , nintendo decide to ignore again and make good cheap tech, and switch became the 3rd most sold console of the history? and now gamers are asking for a new stronger console with 3rd parties.
yeaaaaaaaah suuuuuuure, gamer totally NEEED 3 parties and super awesome hardware, look how good ps5 and ayaneo and steam are doing right?.........right?

Um I think you are forgetting that survey that showed that 3rd party devs are excited for their next system and or currently developing for the switch 2. With that and nintendo holding on to their heavy hitters for switch 2. Then they'll have both a strong 1st party and 3rd party
Not to mention once the switch emulator catch up, you wont even need a switch anymore.

Actually, it had a lot more to do with then just CD space. Sony agreed to publish Final Fantasy 7 outside of Japan. This was huge for Square because at the time they were struggling with localisation. Nintendo didn't want to pay for it. You can find videos of the original Final Fantasy 7 on the Nintendo 64

You're wrong. Nintendo has no competition. Steam Deck and the like are PCs, not consoles. There is no physical format, resale of games, etc. And Nintendo has already been demonstrating with many of its consoles, Switch included, that it does not need third parties at all. You just have to look at the 20 best-selling Switch games. Not a single third partie. All Nintendo exclusives.
*parties
To pluralize a noun that ends in -y, drop the -y and add -ies.
@@alvallac2171 Thank you 👍🏻 Sometimes Google Translate doesn't translate very well.
Sega had a hand held console, that was awesome at that time.
Sega and NEC BOTH had handhelds that played the same games as the big boy consoles. Other companies do things, but Nintendo just always does it better.
@@dewinter1411 I agree, I was just saying Sega was ahead of it's time the Sega Gamer used Genesis cartridges
You nailed it female dog!
I personally don't mind if the switch successor is around PS4 Quality especially since most AAA games come to last gen regardless
You're ok with a brand new console being 2 generations behind???? That's insane.
@@kenshinhimura9387 it's a handheld. The hardware kind of doesn't matter anyway when studios port them to old platforms regardless, optimization is more important than the hardware
Plus the battery life would be horrendous if the switch were on par with the ps5. The steam deck is slightly less powerful than a PS4 and the battery is barely tolerable.
I agree with most of what you say. I think however they’ll fine. Even if the console is not as powerful as other consoles coming out on 2025/2026, they will have the advantage of games being optimized for the hardware which makes a big difference.
Never forget theyre always steps ahead of what they put out to the market. Thats just on the hardware side.
At the end of the day, those steam games are always hand me downs or games that arent exclusive. Nintendo has the strongest first party games out of anyone. And third parties have been fully supporting Nintendo for several years now, this last part isnt going to change.
You are missing the point Rich. 1st party games are the main course for Nintendo consoles. 3rd party games are just the garnish on the plate. People will buy some 3rd party titles when they get a Nintendo console, but it's exclusively the first party games that drive someone to buy the console.
Consoles need two legs in order to be successful. One being first party, the second being third party support. It's how the PS1 got instant success due to Sega and Nintendo making dumb choice, and Nintendo's consoles from the N64 didn't do well until the Switch.
Not counting the Wii because it was mostly bought by non gamers for Wii Sports, and then collected dust
I think people tend to underestimate the steam deck's achievement, still. Never before has a console like experince been merged with the flexibilty and customization of pc gaming. Nintendo has to stack high in order to regain those switch sales numbers. Or come even close.
Nintendo stands at a pivotal juncture in the gaming industry, where it should consider the looming competition from emerging portable gaming PCs and potential releases like the rumoured PSP2. With Xbox also contemplating entry into the portable gaming market, the landscape is evolving rapidly. Leveraging their financial prowess amassed from the remarkable sales of the Switch, Nintendo has a golden opportunity to assert dominance once again, should they choose to seize it.
Embracing a return to the power narrative and expanding the Joy-Cons to accommodate an 8-inch display, while integrating a dock serving as an external GPU, could propel the Switch into uncharted territory, should Nintendo decide to take this strategic move. Such a decision wouldn't just potentially push graphical performance to rival, or even outstrip, that of traditional consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X; it could also pave the way for ground-breaking consumer products.
With an envisioned GPU performance rating of 3.5 teraflops in portable mode and a staggering 14 teraflops when docked, the next iteration of the Switch could redefine industry standards, should Nintendo choose to pursue this path. Moreover, by embracing innovative technologies such as DLSS and Deep Sampling, Nintendo could potentially unlock the full potential of the Switch, offering gamers unparalleled visual experiences.
However, Nintendo's innovation doesn't stop there, but it could, should they decide to further explore it. The concept of transforming the Switch into a VR headset equipped with a 4K screen and compatible accessories akin to established VR platforms like Galaxy Gear VR or Google Daydream could be nothing short of visionary, should Nintendo decide to undertake it. Not only would this potential evolution elevate the Switch's capabilities, but it could also open new horizons for immersive gaming beyond the confines of traditional TV play.
In essence, Nintendo's potential next move isn't just about releasing another gaming handheld; it's about potentially ushering in a new era of gaming experiences that are not only immersive but also future-proof. By marrying cutting-edge technology with consumer demand, Nintendo could have the potential to solidify its position as an industry leader and potentially redefine the very notion of portable gaming.
The Nintendo Switch is so successful due to various factors. Firstly, of course, there is the innovative approach with the hybrid concept. Due to the flop of the WiiU, they were then able to re-release numerous good games, in particular Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. In addition, the Nintendo Switch - like most Nintendo consoles in the past - has the best range of first-party games. And finally, it also has a solid number of third-party titles. With a more powerful version, the first two points would obviously no longer apply. This means that if you want to have the same success, you would have to compensate for this with even better support from third-party manufacturers. This has indeed often been the problem in the past. Games such as Red Dead Redemption 2, Elden Ring or Resident Evil 4 Remake - or GTA VI in the future, for example - would therefore also have to be released on the new Switch.
Damm those views are getting lower and lower
Those "home console" Switch sales are mixed numbers with the Switch lite, which isn't a "home console". It's an handheld
Dude, Switch lite is the least selling model lol. So it's still a hybrid, and btw thus "it's a handheld" excuse is poor and will never work.
@@Mario123007 Isn't Switch Lite a handheld? I dare you to say no!
@@blackrosepanther way ta go ignoring the sales of Switch lite lol, is Switch lite the only model? Lol and handheld still counts.
@@Mario123007 Yes! Exactly. You admit I am right! "Handheld still counts", when it's Nintendo. The ps5 and the Xbox s/x are NOT a handheld, yet their sales are being compared to sales of the Switch AND Switch Lite, which is a handheld. Should Microsoft add pc sales to Xbox sales? Should Sony add the sales of the ps handheld to ps5 sales? No! But when it's Nintendo "it doesn't matter" that you add sales of a handheld, Switch lite, which is not a home console!
@@blackrosepanther the fact you don't consider handheld a console is where you already lost lol. Handhelds are also video game consoles mind you. And no, PC is not a console cuz you can cutomize it from different brand, you cannot do much wiith home consoles. So face the truth, Switch lite belongs to the Switch family, and Switch is a hybrid CONSOLE, repeat after me: Switch, PS5 and Xbox series X/S are all CONSOLES. And even if you take away Switch lite sales, Switch sits around 116 million units, so what does it matter? lol
That data doesn’t prove what you’re saying
A simple look at their top 50 sold games might prove you wrong
The selling point is being a perfect combination of Handheld and home system thats all
My thing I have against the switch is one third party support and optimization for third-party party! For example, Turok 2 on the switch runs well until you go online it tanks so bad! A missed opportunity for that!
The specs of the "Switch 2" are already known and it will be on par to a little better then the "Steam Deck".
Ofcourse Nvidia earned billions with Switch success. It was also known that AMD and Nvdia propose their chip to Nintendo but yeah Nintendo will surely chose Nvdia.
Rich tomorrow: Nintendo created a Gaming Monster when they Neuralinked it up your wazoo and you can take it on the go or when you GO!
I love Nintendo but they do a lot of anti consumer things like the switch online library could do so much better but I’ll save all my rant and leave you with a quote from the main man him self back in the day.
President Yamauchi “ GAME CREATORS CAN FINISH GAMES QUICKLY IF THEY COMPROMISE. BUT GAMERS HAVE SHARP EYES.
THEY SOON KNOW IF THE GAMES ARE COMPROMISED. “
I bought an emulator handheld and got every GameCube and n46 Iv ever wanted. F Nintendo online lol
And that's nintendos fault how? How about not embracing digital distribution in the first place? 😂 reap what you sow.
yet, sony just took down paid games in PS5 hahaha
@QuantumChrist People who spread these quotes are usually phony morons who leaves details out on purpose.
Rich’s mind is so melted by politics, his judgment about Nintendo’s older systems has evaporated along with the fumes.
Its not even competition as cool as handheld PCs are there still PCs .. There for PC people. Nintendo has the most popular franchises and still make great games all it takes is a new zelda/mario/pokemon and it will destroy in sales compared to steam deck
Sony has been monopolizing the game market since the launch of the PS1so this gives Nintendo and Microsoft and unfair advantage for 3rd party support. Sony is still doing this today.
Not really true. Nintendo has been doing great too.
I think it's more just that Sony has always put far more money in the field than Microsoft or Nintendo. Sony has far more to lose if they fail and Sony also shares talent between gaming and movie making. Sony has been slowly crushed out of every market they once held, they can't lose gaming or they might not survive.
@@Skylancer727 as you say yourself they put far more money in. Nintendo have managed to stay relevant for years and everyone forgets all the handhelds that made them tonnes and the Wii which in relation to other consoles sold so many useless ads ons and gimmick extras. Sony have spent substantial amounts and even when they have sold so many consoles, have still had to claw back the r&d money. Don't get me wrong, it's Sony that changed the gaming landscape on consoles proving that gaming wasn't just for kids. But to be honest, Sony and Microsoft are going the way of the Dodo.....
@chrisbrowne5829 you're joking right? Sony's earnings from gaming last year were ten times either Microsoft or Nintendo. I don't like Sony's game design anymore, but you'd have to be blind to think they're going bust. Nintendo has a far less lucrative market than Sony and Microsoft have continued to use Xbox exclusively as a loss leader. Honestly Nintendo is by far the most likely to fail as they don't even have any external markets to profit off when they flop. At least before Nintendo had handheld to backup on, now they're both in one.
And the future of consoles is already dead. Microsoft and Sony have already accepted that the console model is dying, the best business venture is just having your games everywhere people can play them. It's why both Microsoft and Sony put games on PC, why both have mobile streaming, and some games even come to Switch. The console model just isn't as profitable as just getting all the people you can to buy your games. This path is already obvious and Sony even acknowledged games like Ratchet and Clank didn't even profit till it came to external platforms.
I mean we're even now entering the AR era where people have a display on their face all the time. What point is there in dedicated mobile screens when we have that? What makes more sense making specialized hardware with games only on it, or just making your games work on people's phones and Vision Pro? I think the answer is obvious and with the new iPhone even running modern Resident Evil, why waste the RND. There's more to making a profit than selling each console at a profit, it still needs to make up the RND.
that is nintendos fault

I'm glad this video is not gaming news. Well done Rich 👍😊
I feel like there’s a chance given the past where Nintendo gives up 3rd part support to try and control their market. They may go the direction sega did. Nintendo took the majority of 3rd party support from sega in the 3rd and 4th gen. From 5th gen on they kind of went their own way. So sega struggled and I think we will see Nintendo struggle in their next console the way sega did from the 5th gen on. So they may end up like sega in making their games for others hardware. Could go too where they become a hardware dev and Microsoft puts game pass on their system too. Who knows, strange new times.
People have been saying the exact same thing about Nintendo since the GameCube.
@@ajzn97 I agree, it’s why I said they went in their own direction as of the 5th gen. But now they face competition from various companies in the hardware type they helped popularize. That could be mirrored when they had the nes sure. But it’s not the same market it was 40 years ago. Nothing is certain, I just know I’d be sad if they stopped making consoles
Most Nintendo fans are pretty hardcore and will buy Mario and Pokemon
Rich always seems to forget that not all people are him. In fact, as far as interests and concerns across the larger gaming industry are concerned, he’s in the minority.
At the end of the day Nin does not care if their competitors are powerful & seeing them do a theme park etc just proves that. Nin will be here 1000yrs from now still doing the low power system & their bank accounts full.
