How will the switch 2 compete?

>>713755604 (OP)
with donkey kong bonanza

By being a games console instead of a laptop with no keyboard

>>713755604 (OP)
By having games.

>>713755604 (OP)
It won't, it will flop. People will buy more Steam Decks, more Switch 2s, and the Steam Deck 2 when that comes in 2027.

>>713756212
Where?

>>713756212
Xbox PC has no games

>>713755604 (OP)
Younger demographic

>>713757378
>800p will become standard long after 1080p should have gone obsolete
grim

>>713755604 (OP)
by doing absolutely nothing

>>713757646
That's what I said.

>>713755604 (OP)
if were going by current rog ally prices $700-$900~ the switch would need to do nothing

>>713757671
Nintendo will keep 1080p standard, but I wonder if the Deck 2 going to be 1080p?

>>713755604 (OP)
How much?

>>713758059
Oh...

>>713757378
I'm not buying the Switch 2, though

>>713758653
Cool, I'm not buying this

>>713758312
It will be 1200p.
>>713755838
>>713756212
Floppy Kong wont even hit 90 on Metacritic, just like World. Mid company with overrated games.
>>713757378
Many people saying this I fear. Unless it's priced at $400/$600 respectively people will just buy Decks. The leaks say $700/$1000 which is absurd. Imagine buying a device as weak as a Steam Deck with a shitty ips screen for $700.

This anon said, after snorting heroin, putting bath salts in his ass, and shooting up meth

16:10, makes sense, will they make it close to 8-inches?

>>713755604 (OP)
Will it really have steam?

Asus products come with that special C.I.D. repair policy. It's called "customer induced damage" and it protects them against any and all warranty claims. I can't wait to see Phil do damage control when Asus refuses to fix their broken SD card slots or whatever the fuck else goes wrong with these things.

>>713755604 (OP)
Compete? It already won, this thing will never surpass the Switch 2 launch sales

By outselling the ally 30 to 1 like the switch did

>>713755604 (OP)
>finally a form factor that's comfortable to hold for extended periods
>its fucking asymmetrical layout
FUCKING X NIGGERS AHHHHHHHHHH

>>713755604 (OP)
Only as long as it has a price advantage. I don’t think Nintendo is dumb, as soon as one of these things hits $600 retail you will see a price cut on S2 and all this bullshit about how the hardware price isn’t the problem will go straight down the memory hole.

>>713755604 (OP)
imagine playing...

>>713755604 (OP)
Console plebs are what they are because of brand power.
UMPCs exist because a specific subset of hardware enthusiasts likes to tinker and the idea of a handheld computer is compelling.

Xbox as a brand has no value. It only detracts from the idea of a UMPC, and it offers nothing to a console fan.

>>713759937
Anything less than Switch 2 specs would be embarrassing. If it isn't 1200p, OLED VRR I won't be buying one. Thankfully Legion Go 2 will probably have this.

>>713764031
Exactly, Microsoft killed their PC ventures with GFWL and they killed their console ventures with the Xbone.

>>713764553
It'll probably be that but OLED is probably going to be for the higher priced models, they're most likely sticking with LCD like Nintendo did for the Switch 2 for the base model to get it to either $500 or $550. So basically, their current strategy with the Steam Deck.

>MS software
No chance.

>cost twice as much as switch 2
>no cartridges
>no detachable controller
>no exclusives
>big and heavy as hell
DOA

>>713764724
And it'll still be worth it even for $1000. The Deck Oled's screen is better than virtually every monitor, hell, virtually every tv. VRR would make it perfect.

>>cost twice as much as switch 2
You don't know this yet. Microsoft might throw a curveball and subsidize cheap models. Then again, it is Microsoft.
>>no cartridges
No Xbox has ever had carts so how would this even work? You can technically hook up a disk reader to it and emulate your Xbox games, so it has physical games in the only way which would make sense without it being comically thick.
>>no detachable controller
This was always a shitty meme. Joycons suck dick and using a real controller has always been better.
>>no exclusives
Every single Xbox and Playstation PC game, many which can't run at a respectable framerate on a Switch 2

>>713765625
>You don't know this yet. Microsoft might throw a curveball and subsidize cheap models. Then again, it is Microsoft.
their cheaper model will be more expensive and less powerful than Switch 2
>No Xbox has ever had carts
Not an excuse for not having them and being a soulless digital-only piece of garbage
>This was always a shitty meme.
It's called innovation, good luck throwing away your xbox handheld when the sticks start drifting.
>Every single Xbox and Playstation PC game
you didn't refute me, you only confirmed that they have no exclusive, you're a pathetic retard lmao

Nintendo won.

They won't they're even promoting third party stores over their own, that thing is going to be expensive especially since ASUS doesn't subsidize.
This was always a shitty meme. Joycons suck dick and using a real controller has always been better.
Nintendo innovates with their controls, Sony innovate with their controls, Valve innovate with their controls, Microsoft stopped innovating with the 360 and stagnated the entire industry because they won't add the same stuff in everyone else's controllers. WHERE'S THE FUCKING TRACKPADS AND GYRO, MICROSOFT?
>Every single Xbox and Playstation PC game, many which can't run at a respectable framerate on a Switch 2
Why not just get a Steam Deck or wait on the Deck 2 which will cost less than this?

By being less than half the price and by having games that aren't available on every other digital storefront
It's a neat way to play existing Xbox games, but those games were already available on Xbox Series X, Windows, and a number of other platforms for some of them.

>their cheaper model will be more expensive and less powerful than Switch 2
Switch 2 will be on par with it. It's weak as fuck.
>Not an excuse for not having them and being a soulless digital-only piece of garbage
Coming from the guy caping for the key card company, that's rich.
>It's called innovation, good luck throwing away your xbox handheld when the sticks start drifting.
LMFAO unlike the shitch shitcons umpcs let you unscrew sticks and buy cheap replacements for them you clueless faggot.
>you didn't refute me, you only confirmed that they have no exclusive
Since you're an ESL shiteater here's a reminder of what the definition for exclusive is:
"restricted or limited to the person, group, or area concerned."
You can ONLY play those games on devices which AREN'T a switch 2, thereby making them EXCLUSIVE to other hardware. Eat shit nigger, it mogs the fuck out of your weak toy with a shit screen.
