     @coolboymew@shitposter.world Well, that just looks like a slightly different Nintendo Switch so that's not really exciting.
     
     It's not a wild new concept like the Nintendo Wii or something.

     @coolboymew@shitposter.world I mean same counts for the Nintendo DS (best selling handheld of all time), but yet they still innovated on the concept by introducing a new gimmick on the second generation (3DS).

     @SuperDicq that's what was expected, they would be dumb to heavily fuck with that considering it became the best selling system of all time

     @coolboymew@shitposter.world Yes, but it still brought something new to the table.
     
     Does the Switch 2 bring anything new to the table other than the naturally faster hardware or better screen?

     @SuperDicq and the gimmick was wholly optional

     @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @coolboymew@shitposter.world The New 3DS doesn't count, that's still just a 3DS because it has the same games.

     @EmoIsDeadAndSoAmI@mastodon.bv.linksjugend-solid.de @coolboymew@shitposter.world The majority of Nintendo gamers are generally not the type of people that even care or know what a "screen resolution" or "framerate" is. So I don't consider this a selling point.

     @SuperDicq @coolboymew I agree that it seems kinda lazy but just offering the huge switch legacy software library with actually acceptable framerates and resolutions is still a strategy that will probably give Nintendo a few more safe and stable years until they have to come up with a new thing.
     They could also make new software using all the new power but lets be real they will probably publish everything cross-gen for the next 5 years

     @SuperDicq >It's not a wild new concept like the Nintendo Wii or something.
     They just got the gamecube hardware, overclocked it and put it on a new process node, plus added typical computer features like Wi-Fi and bluetooth.
     
     The remote wasn't really a wild new concept, as they originally used only accelerometers to gauge which direction the remote was swung in and an IR pointer to work out which way the remote was pointing - things that had be done before, although not put together into a bluetooth remote.

     @Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com Not a wild concept? The Wii's motion controls is the single defining feature that made it outsell the GameCube 5 times over, but ok
