#头条创作挑战赛#五月上旬的时候, Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa has confirmed that the successor to the Switch (tentatively called Switch 2) exists, and loosely said that the new machine will be released by March 31, 2025! The doctor has previously speculated that Nintendo has the ambition to let the Switch hit the top of the best-selling list in the history of game consoles, and the Switch 2 is likely to copy the sales routine of the Switch, so the debut of the new machine is very likely to be placed in the first quarter of next year, and the official release date will be later.
At the same time, some topics around Switch 2 have sparked heated discussions in the community, such as: what will be the first escort game, the performance specifications of the new machine, etc. The doctor has recently talked to everyone about a lot of Switch 2 revelations and rumors, and today let's take a look at a poll event of the well-known foreign media IGN, where players chose what they think is the most important new Switch 2 feature (upgrade). If the new machine doesn't have these features (upgrades), it will be a disappointment for fans, so I think this poll result is still very valuable.
After a long period of "rumor iteration", many overseas whistleblowers seem to have unified their voices, and everyone has formed a consensus on the statement that "Switch 2 will use Nvidia's (NVIDIA) T239 chip processor, 8GB RAM, 64G storage space, and 8-inch LCD screen (support DLSS technology)". In addition, the Switch 2 still supports handheld mode, desktop mode, and TV mode. Looking at it this way, the core experience of the Switch 2 is no different from the Switch, which can be regarded as an enhanced version (of course, there may be innovative features, we just don't know).
On the basis of the above revelations, foreign media IGN launched a project called "Which feature (upgrade) of Switch 2 is the most important to you?" ". The results showed that 34,000 people participated in the event, which is quite a large sample size, but the things that everyone is most concerned about have nothing to do with the above performance specifications or features, and the most anticipated and valued is the backward compatibility of the Switch 2. That's right, 51% of gamers believe that Switch 2 must be backwards compatible with Switch. Many people have a lot of Switch cartridges or digital versions of games at home, and it's not good if they can't play them if they change the hardware.
According to the doctor, this is really important, but you should not worry, after all, Nintendo has called the new machine the successor to the Switch, and when the Wii U was released, the name used was "the successor to the Wii". Therefore, the relationship between Switch 2 and Switch is likely to be the relationship between Wii U and Wii, Wii U is compatible with Wii games, and Switch 2 is naturally compatible with Switch games.
After the backward compatibility function, the second most voted feature is TV mode support4K resolution output, accounting for about 24.5% of votes, and next, handheld mode supports 1080P The number of votes ranks third, accounting for about 10.3%. It can be seen from here that players are looking forward to the improvement of image quality! As for the larger screen size, it is not very attractive to fans, and only receives 4.6% of the votes.
We all know this: the Switch has a big problem, and that is the drift problem of the Joy-Con controller. From the birth of the Switch to the launch of the Switch OLED version, the above problems have not been properly solved. Players naturally remember this, with 9.7% of them saying that the optimization of the Joy-Con controller is very important. It is worth mentioning that: according to the revelations of Mopai MOBAPAD, a manufacturer specializing in the production of Switch's third-party Joy-Con and Pro controllers, the new version of Joy-Con is larger in size, and has been changed from the original slide rail fixation to magnetic suction (using electromagnetic suction technology to control magnetic suction through electric current). It is hoped that this change in the overall structure will completely solve the previous drift problem. The five options given by foreign media IGN actually show that we don't know much about Switch 2 now. Maybe Nintendo has prepared other surprises in the new machine, and the doctor is personally looking forward to it, huh?
