    The world has been waiting on a new F-Zero game for 21 years. If We can get Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, then we can get a new F-Zero.

    F-Zero 99 was some signs of life for the franchise thank f*** man

    lmao this is when the usual nintendo problem was actually inverted

    too much 3rd party, not enough 1st party when it’s usually the opposite

    it’s impressive how good the switch has been doing with third parties for the past few years

    I remember not keeping up with Nintendo back when the Wii U era started, and when I went to look at upcoming 3rd-party games, I was absolutely shocked at the lack of games announced for the post-launch window period
    I knew something wasn’t right

    You taking those over a generational 3d mario game

    I would easily take a Pokémon game that actually lives up to what the franchise is capable of over a 3d Mario but knowing game freak it will never happen

    Yep, the library is too massive to ignore (the countless shovelware on the eShop is taken into account as well lol).
    I think there will be a great deal of backlash from fans and the media if the new console doesn’t support BC.

    Full summary:
    Starts at min 30
    He has sources but cant 100% confirm it
    He believes everything will be clarified in March
    But although he isn't 100% sure about it, he has a lot of sources saying the same thing, so it's a solid information
    According to his sources, Switch 2 will release during Q1 2025
    He has more than 3 people that are working with this date in mind: Q1 2025
    Other said that originally it was supposed to be released in 2024 but was delayed to 2025
    Still technically FY 2024 and that's Nintendo's goal
    He doesn't know why it was decided to release in 2025 and not in 2024
    He knows Nintendo won't stop releasing games for Switch 1 and has more stuff set to be released this year
    But everything set to be released this year are small titles
    Big releases only for Switch 2 now

    Will be such a huge blunder if this is named anything other than Switch 2 (although Switch Advanced would be acceptable as a GBA tribute )
