Update to what? Nintendo can release any game it wants and release it on one of the most popular consoles ever, and they want to get rid of this? They want to make a new console? Updating technology made sense back in the old days when things were moving quickly, but now? What are you going to do, make everything look slightly better?
Get over it. Technology isn’t going to advance that much more. Put a holding pattern on your hardware and ride it out for years to come. Just because Sony and Microsoft want to throw out yet another version of their barely updated hardware console and PC users decide that yet another overpriced, overpowered, overheating card is absolutely necessary doesn’t mean it makes any sense. Nintendo has the opportunity to grow a brand here and gain trust by allowing their hardware to become a standard. Lower its price. Retool its design. The portable Switch thing was a good idea. Just don’t change your actual system and allow games to be released for a single system for a good long while for once in console history.
All they’re doing now is getting ready to bring out another fucking WiiU that no one cares about after the phenomenal success of the Wii.
This is why PC is always superior. Not because of graphics. Because there is a consistency, and flexibility. People always believe that PC gaming is better because “oh, PC gamers buy $3000 PCs and play games on ultramegasuperhigh resolution”. Bullshit. It’s because we can play all the PC games, ever, and have the flexibility to play exactly what we want and not be forced into playing only what a company allows us to play.
Nintendo should stick with the Switch, or push moving to PC gaming. Enough of this constant pointless console treadmill updating.

I have a strong feeling that a switch 2 will be backwards compatible. If it’s not then that’s a big f up
Wasn’t the Wii U backwards compatible as well? That and the name didn’t seem to help it at all.
