Julius Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago It's all starting to be let loose now. First up is FNAC France reportedly updating their catalog with Switch 2 products, and namely, a game listed as being from Take-Two. Quote FNAC France is updating its product catalog with the first products related to Nintendo Switch 2 According to one of the photos, the first game listed would be from Take-Two Interactive Felipe is also claiming that there will be no more changes or [internal] delays: Quote No, Nintendo is strictly following a schedule it has had planned for ages. No more delays. No changing of plans. So then, you're thinking, well, it could be a lot of things from Take-Two, right? But Rockstar and GTA V or Red Dead Redemption II seem obvious big choices that jump to mind... Some people then took a closer look at the FNAC stuff and, apparently, Tekken 8 (seems reasonable I guess), FIFA (seems very safe), and Red Dead Redemption II (seems like it would need quite a bit done and is probably the hardest to believe of the three) were found to be games listed for the Switch 2. Also found were the potential dimensions for the Switch 2's game cases, which seem to be considerably larger than the Switch's? Weirdly this is the one I take issue with, I thought the Switch game cases were a nice enough size while reducing plastic use vs standard case sizes (especially considering the cartridge size), but this seems to go against that, if it's accurate. Grain of salt and all that, goes without saying...but a hypothetical launch of a 3D Mario + Red Dead Redemption II would be kind of insane, I know that's not what the "leak" is explicitly stating, but man, assuming it runs well enough, I'd be well jealous of the amount of people who haven't played Red Dead II getting the chance to play it on a hybrid console and as part of a console launch/launch window. I feel like between this and other big third party offerings of yesteryear coming over in force, the idea of just being able to return to talking about some of the best games of the last decade because they've found a new audience - and on a Nintendo console of all places - would be super exciting! 1
Jonnas Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago Gotta be honest: Tekken 8 sounds like a far more impressive get than RDR2. A fighting game like that HAS to run well, always. Would be a guarantee that there's no stuttering issues with the new console. 6 minutes ago, Julius said: Felipe is also claiming that there will be no more changes or [internal] delays: Right, the reason I posted here, despite not liking to discuss rumours or alleged leaks, is that this translation from Portuguese is quite incorrect. He's responding to a tweet that asked whether Nintendo was meant to announce it this week, but delayed the event for some reason. Felipe responded: "No, Nintendo is still following a timetable they set a long time ago. No changes. No delays." Also, we are mostly taking Felipe's word for it when it comes to this FNAC leak. The photo is using a codename of sorts, and classifying it internally as a "Nintendo Switch videogame". The photo itself does not confirm Switch 2, only that Take Two has some unknown videogame coming out for a Switch. 1
