This is great news! Now I know for sure that I will be able to sell my Switch OLED that I only recently upgraded to. That will make my Switch 2 much more affordable
I think you're doing the readers a disservice in not addressing the fact that the game crashes quite often on the Switch. Infuriating if you've just played through fifteen minutes of dialogue which you'll have to sit through one more time, trying to remember your choices. One happened to me right at the end.
So, for Tears of the Kingdom they left a debug tool in (ascend). This time they left some of the level design tools in? (The ability to create endless numbers of beds, apparently)
Have all the Mario 64 I need, but I've never played the N64 Zelda or Paper Mario titles. Maybe I'll just buy them for Wii U so I get to keep them, though.
That said, if my Wii U HDD fails, I won't have them anymore once the e-shop is gone
As much as I admire Nintendo for putting games first, this year's E3 Nintendo direct made me feel most offerings felt dated, visually. They need new hardware.
The Is this retina-page is interesting. I've been wanting to make the leap to 4K gaming by buying a 4K projector, but at my viewing distance (about 3,5 metres) there seems to be little point in doing so. My HD projector is retina as it is, apperently.
I feel increasingly underwhelmed by this. I mean, the design is great, and full of that special Nintendo charm. But how long will the fun last, say if you're more than 9 years old? Are there any rides besides Karts and that Yoshi-themed one? Or are we just supposed to punch things, and touch them with our smart wristband?
Can't understand why they wouldn't want to keep selling the 3D All-stars package indefinitely though. Sure, they will have massive sales during that time, but I still reckon they could have sold more if they didn't make it a limited time offer.
Hold it now. Great game, but how many iterations do we really need? Personally I'm good with the Konami anniversary collection and the NES port that's available through switch online.
I'm most excited about the opportunity to replay Galaxy, anywhere, but Sunshine with improved controls wouldn't be bad, either. Or 64, remastered, for that matter.

Re: Random: Someone 3D Printed The Rumoured 'Switch 2' Design
If this is the final design it's Wii U all over again. It doesn't feel new enough. Some people won't realize it's a completely new system.
