MODERATORS

Nintendo is "really mad" to "the most severe level" about the Switch 2 leaks, say former PR managers: "They are very, very, very upset" (www.gamesradar.com)

Because absolutely no one was expecting the same layout with a bigger screen and more streamlined hardware that literally looks like the phrase “Switch 2”? They think the whole world was suppose to be shook.

Unless the actual device is different, it'll just be wiiU agian.

Metroid Prime will move units, but im patient gameing this one and plan on emulation down the road. Based on the Switch emulators there's no reason to think this one won't be any different.

Given how hard they’ve been pursuing anything related to Switch emulation, you’d have to be nuts to think they won’t try a lot harder to make it more difficult this time round.

Every Nintendo system is hacked immediately. The switch had emulation before it even came out. All Nintendo has done is release system patches that don't do anything. They did the same thing with the wii, and the wiiU.

You can still easily emulate Switch games right now.

Edit. You can downvote all you'd like. It doesn't change history or facts.
