Is the fast sellingness of the switch just because there are more gamers then ever on Earth? Does that title just keep getting taken by every new console?

Second wind will get their Switch 2 for review reasons, but what’s a dead franchise reboot or sequel that would sell you in terms of software? Pokemon Stadium 3 👀

Will we ever get a Vagrant Story remake? VS with a weapon-swap hotkey and a fresh coat of paint would probably be my GOTY

I find myself wondering if the Switch 2 will age better than the first. I remember the original feeling dated from the get go, but the 2 feels modern. With new console tech mostly relating to things like Ray tracing and frame generation, do you think a more modest handheld like this will have longer legs?

Do you think the handheld Xbox will compete with the switch 2 on price?

With Silksong putting skin in the game by implying a release date tied to the new ROG handheld, is it at all likely Team Cherry will commit OR postpone?

It’ll have been 8 years, 10 months since Hollow Knight originally released by holiday 2025.

Mindseye's launch is a car wreck I can't look away from. Does Nick have any insights on its development? Was it truly supposed to be something else?

Bromez Addams

With the Steam deck, PlayStation Portal and now the Xbox Ally X all entering the Switch and Now Switch 2's territory are we just flooding the handheld market? Do you think any of these have true sticking power to challenge Nintendo's market share?

Mindseye didn't even look that bad in the stream yesterday it just looked... there. "there" isn't a place you want to be as a game these days. Been having a good time with Hell is Us lately I'm a simple man you put Elias Toufexis in a game I'm at least checking it out

Just among games that I'm looking forward to, about 40-50 of them have demos available as of this round of showcases. This is awesome! And also overwhelming! What's a busy person to do with such an embarrassment of riches? I'm sure we'll hear from SW folks soon about demos that stood out to y'all -- any sneak peeks?

Is Nintendo’s new business practises the final nail for AAA? Seems innovation and accessible prices to gaming will only be Indie or AA now.

Inverse Skies

With rumours that Sony and Microsoft are also developing handheld consoles, do we think this is going to be the norm for console generations moving forward? Is there a role for a traditional set top box style console or has the success of the switch design killed that off?

speakeasy

Not trying to rain on Nintendo's parade but does fastest selling console matter that much? like i knew alot of owners of the best selling consoles like the switch/wii/ps5 and those very quickly ended up in closets or w/e collecting dust and its not just nintendo can any console manufacturers rely on any of these customers that treat their products like a novelty?

Nick Rollins

Have any of the Steam Next Fest demos you've played gotten you excited for the full release? As the resident 90s-I-Grew-Up-With-Nintendo-Lad I'm guessing Windswept is that game for Mr. Sliva.

I can't buy a Switch 2 yet. But it seems like local co-op is kind of hard for Mario Kart. Have there been more announcements about local or couch Co-op for cart or other games in the future? KC, do you have any favorites or hopes for future family Co-op games? ( I know Marty never leaves home, and Nick only co-ops beer pong IRL)
