Was thinking of playing on a plane with wife, but I guess we'll just have to do same-system multiplayer like a couple of peasants. Thanks guys.

Will probably do local wireless multiplayer with the kid in Saint's Row 3 though. And looking at Monster Hunter Rise for the return trip...

Hahaha, this almost reads like you're planning on playing impromptu matches against a random kid, who happens to be seated in the 3rd row.

It's going to suck when the next Nintendo system isn't backwards compatible and they hit reset on the eShop again.

This is exactly when you pirate everything you've already paid for. But yeah it's gonna be super annoying because like most goons I've invested waaaay too much cash on my gaming library. hopefully the next switch is fully BC.

If the new Switch Pro U weren’t backwards compatible, I would simply keep my Switch and continue using it to play Switch games

I imagine they'll include backwards compatibility because the Switch has an enormous install base, and the more casual audience that hopped on this gen won't bother to buy the next console if they can't keep their Animal Crossing islands intact. It's received such a vast number of ports that dedicated port studios maynot bother to do them again next gen, knowing that people won't buy twice in such a short span.

If it comes to that id prefer to just play them on an emulator because clutter, but who knows maybe I'll own a home by then to clutter up with gaming stuff

Nintendo is good at BC if they don’t have to do weird hacky things to get games to run, switch is a relatively normal console with one screen so I have faith

And isn't the fact that it's a mobile chipset even easier for backward compatibility as long as they stick w the same format? Actually I have no idea of this is true or not but I feel like it could be

Considering how successful the switch is, yeah the next thing better be a direct sequel. No more 2000s blunder years filled w weird decisions Nintendo

They would have to stick with an Nvidia GPU since some Switch games make use of their proprietary NVN graphics API.

Before the release of the original Switch it wasn't clear how committed Nvidia was to mobile SoC development as they left the rat race on mobile phones, but I imagine their partnership with Nintendo and the success of the Switch has been good to them, so they'll probably make something with out for the next generation.

If the Switch Successor comes out and isn't backwards compatible with the Switch, I'm immediately going to buy two or three Switch batteries and just store them somewhere nice and cool, just in case.

Everyone's just in a tizzy cause they'll be supporting Spla3n for two more years, meaning an upgrade is at least 2 years away from now, if there's even one in the works any time soon.

I don't care, I'm getting an OLED when I get back to France and it's gonna be cool.
