Ashley Posted March 25 Author Posted March 25 Wouldn't it be funny if they announced the Switch Pro 1
Ike Posted March 25 Posted March 25 At least if the TWW/TP ports happen, I will be able to finally put my Wii U away.

Maybe not a "pro" edition per se, but spruce it up a little bit internally, have a nice fancy limited edition design. Make the OLED screen the standard and discontinue the OG. 64gb storage. Same on the Lite, few new colours. $100 / £100 price drop for both models. Pack in a big hit or two. Finally kick of a player's choice range. Congratulation, PS2 is dunzo. 10 million+ EZ sales. 1

After playing the original Wind Waker again, going back to not having the Game Pad screen for that game is so frustrating. More so than losing the other changes. 1
Hero-of-Time Posted March 26 Posted March 26 Are we expecting a tweet/announcement at 2pm for tomorrow's Direct? If real, I can't imagine them just dropping the thing out of nowhere.

If real, I can't imagine them just dropping the thing out of nowhere. Yeah, 14:00 GMT / 15:00 BST in the summer has generally been when they drop news of general Directs for a little while now, though if it's under different branding then it might go up at a different time – for example, last year's Partner Direct got announced at 22:00 GMT. So I guess we'll know by tonight at the latest, because I'm with you, I'd be pretty shocked if they shadow-dropped this. Before rumours of this started going around I was thinking they'd drop the Switch 2 Direct runtime sometime today, but I figure they'll just give it a little bit of lip service to close the Direct out if that's happening tomorrow?

Julius Posted March 26 Posted March 26 (edited) Pyoro is back and saying that tomorrow's Direct won't be a Partner or Indie event: That leaves general Direct or a Mini... Worth noting that a number of Direct Minis have been announced the day of or shadow-dropped in the past. Edited March 26 by Julius
Dcubed Posted March 26 Posted March 26 (edited) Should be announced today and then happen tomorrow. 1 hour ago, Hero-of-Time said: Are we expecting a tweet/announcement at 2pm for tomorrow's Direct?

MindFreak Posted March 28 Posted March 28 I'm torn. It's either pretty smart or rather dumb but it solves the problem I had foreseen as I was planning on letting my sons get my old Switch when Switch 2 launches but I didn't want to lose my games or let them use my profile. This way, they can still play our games on the old Switch.
Dcubed Posted March 28 Posted March 28 The fact that it doesn't require any sort of internet connection check-in is pretty killer; especially given the portable nature of the system. Great for multi-system ownership. 1
