Wow, that is really cool. But Don't Nintendo sell their retro games on their Online Nintendo Shop ? Is it even legal to play those games for free like this on a console that is not Nintendo ???

I will stick with my 74 dollars hand held console for now, because Steam Deck is 680 euros... But i am still baffled how it can be legal to play retro Nintendo games like this... It is not like I am complaning or anything though.

Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders will begin in the U.S. on April 24, 2025, and the price of $449.99 will remain the same, but Nintendo says Switch 2 accessories will "experience price adjustments from those announced on April 2 due to changes in market conditions."

Thanks for the update!

You Americans complain about tariffs, but we live with tariffs on all import products in Turkiye for decades and no one cares. lol

If Switch 2 is 449 dollars in America, it will probably be 700 dollars in Turkiye. :/

My issue with Nintendo is re-leasing games over and over and over. Only a few new good games and the rest are crap. Don't get me wrong, I like Nintendo and still have every system they put out, but I am tired of getting re-makes.

Despite the increase in Switch 2 power, it still lags behind PS5 and Xbox Series X in power. I think someone benched marked it and said it had the same power as PS4. Not PS4 Pro, but PS4. I hope that is wrong. I will be buying this when a Zelda themed version comes out

Man... People stay away from R36S hand held consoles. Mine got broken and it hasn't even been a month since i got it... :/ First the control stick got broken, no matter which game, i open, the characters, i played were always going to right way direction on their own. And now, the consol doesn't work at all.

When i press the power button, its blue light lights up and some gibberish words appear on screen and then it closes itself down...

I knew it was too good to be true to have a consol with 20.000 retro games (that includes so many retro Nintendo games) just for 74 dollars. :/

I think we're in an era where power has lost much of its appeal.

In the 90s and 00s the leaps were staggering. In the 10s it slowed and now in the 20s people don't seem to be concerned much. The Switch ran laps around the competition and I could see the Switch 2 doing similar (maybe not to quite the degree).

I'll be perfectly content to hold my PS5 for many years as now I'm expecting the PS6 to be $800 range with $90 games with the marketing probably being improvements that get harder to detect at a glance.

Games look good to me, I'm not sure I need anymore than what we have now. Of course, my first system was an Atari 2600.

I must apologise to R36S... Because after i had charged its battery, it went back to work, perfectly. So forget all about what i said before... R36S is a great deal for what you get.

I have so many Switch games waiting to be played, it will probably take me a long time to play them all and then consider to get a Switch 2. I believe by that time Swtich 2 Lite would be out and that is the version, i really want. I have a Switch Lite as well. I like hand helds and Switch Lites are pure hand helds also their prices are alot cheaper.
