    Same design as the leak a couple months ago. Idk I love my switch, but that’s really only because of some of the games. If my gaming laptop hadn’t died on me I’d be emulating. I have a feeling this console will be similar.

      TBF, doing the same thing a second time but better is not Nintendo’s MO. Theres usually either a new gimmick or form factor, or it’s just a refresh of equivalent hardware. The New 3DS was an outlier in that respect.

        While they do like to mix things up on occasion they have there fair share of consoles that feel like iterations on a theme.

        • NES>SNES
        • N64>GameCube
        • GB>GBA
        • DS>3DS

        With official announcements of a Switch successor including continuing software compatibility it seemed likely that it would keep the general form factor.

    Please don’t support Nintendo. They have been super aggressive with lawsuits. They should go after people doing illegal things, but the palworld stuff and dmca people streaming games is pretty bad.

      No company is perfect. The only thing bad enough to boycott here is modern Pokemon games, until those devs learn how to code properly.

      I’m buying a launch console to not play for future hacks for piracy Linux ISOs. Considering they sell consoles at a loss, this is even more effective
