4 months agoI’m impressed they’re sticking with cartridges, since that has been a source of issues with some games. I appreciate it myself. I like them.
This guy is kind of silly for saying that this has been the only time there have been games that fit into the old system, since you could totally put Gameboy Color games into the Gameboy Pocket, they just wouldn’t work. They’d scold you and be like “This game can only be played on the GameBoy Color!”.
I hope there’s no forward compatibility, where games must target the lower spec hardware, since that’s the same thing holding the Xbox Series X/S, I hope there’s backwards compatibility though, it’d be nice to tuck my old Switch into storage.
That’s unimpressive, considering it is pretty much the best in that category for now.
I also like how they specified the Steam Deck as purely portable when in reality it is just as much of a hybrid as the Nintendo Switch, yet the Switch is in a category invented just for it so that they can give Snoy the console top spot.
