Switch 2 Trailer just dropped

And what fucking format is that date? Feb? April?
@VD15 @coolboymew It's basically a Switch XL but maybe it is more powerful if its going to have exclusive games like that new Mario kart shown (also FINALLY no more milking 8)
@Ace66062 @VD15 from the recent leaked motherboard apparently it's going to be more on the "hopeful high end" of what's been rumoured, although it's hard to tell with custom chips and apparently Tflops means jackshit anymore
@beardalaxy @VD15 @Ace66062 upscale? As in AI upscale? Yes, it's supposedly a feature and that's gonna really help it in portable mode

@coolboymew @VD15 @Ace66062 digital foundry seem to think it'll have around the power of a base ps4 when docked, but with how well nintendo typically optimizes games and newer architecture i can imagine it'll perform pretty well. but yeah, portable mode is going to need some serious help if they want the battery to last a reasonable amount of time.

my main hopes are
1) that it has better joysticks, fuck the joycons
2) that it can be hacked, and for that reason i'm going to buy it as soon as possible and keep it offline for as long as possible lol

@beardalaxy @coolboymew @Ace66062 If there's a game I actually want to play on launch, I'm debating just buying one to actually use and another to just keep in the box until an exploit gets found

@VD15 @beardalaxy @coolboymew @Ace66062 considering this too, but
i got the hackable switch 1, and then just bought every game anyways and never bothered hacking it. whats the point? some shitty emulators that run worse than steam deck or my own phone? theres only a handful of exclusives and i want physical copies anyways. if i really dont want to pay, emulators are already fairly mature
