The Switch 2 Nintendo Direct Will Be 60 Minutes Long, Nintendo Confirms

Why is this newsworthy?
Why is this commentworthy?

It also included being considerably cheaper than other consoles because they use outdated tech. $400 is a hefty price tag for a Nintendo console. I'm sure it will do well, since it's just "Switch but more powerful," which is what people were asking for. But for me, it's too pricey for what it is.
And AND it’s not as though we can expect another mainline Zelda game on launch day. Maybe Metroid Prime 4, sure, but that series has never moved units the way Zelda does (as much as I wish it did).
I agree with your assessment. That’s where I fall too. I’ve got a launch day Switch and an OLED Steam Deck. My Switch mostly gathers dust since I got the Deck.

Metroid Prime 4 will be on the OG Switch, so no worry about missing out there. It will probably leak like most Nintendo games have been lately and I'll get to play it early on my modded Switch, even. I think a new 3D Mario is what I'll be missing out on, which will hurt, but not enough that I'll be willing to pay almost $500 to play it.

Exactly what I was thinking.
I wonder if there’s any chance Nintendo will remaster the other two Metroid Prime games before 4 launches

They do love their shadow drops, but I'm guessing no. Maybe they'll do it for the Switch 2, though - they've pretty much run out of Wii U games to port and will have to re-release older stuff now!

It will be 10 minutes to announce the new console and 50 minutes to announce Silksong
Don't worry, they'll spare atleast 15 minutes to show off Skyrim on the Switch 2.

Maybe this time it'll be GTA V

I’m curious what other people’s main gripe is (likely emulation fights?) For my own, it’s when they enacted an assault on Garry’s Mod assets.
That domain never did anything to harm their brand and was a source for tons of fan content. Emulation has its murky arguments about capitalism, but going after GMod was just litigation and harm for its own sake.
