  @SignoreBravo @Zuby_Tech The way the industry now has completely changed. The only platform that really sticks to its roots is Nintendo, who don't put their games anywhere else. The issue now is the financial viability with the rising development costs and the companies wanting to turn profits

  The GameCube controller for Nintendo Switch should work with Mario Kart World on the Switch 2, but with limitations. It supports basic racing, as seen with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, using buttons like A for acceleration and R for drifting. However, it lacks clickable analog sticks and extra shoulder buttons, which may restrict access to advanced features like off-roading or menu navigation. Nintendo confirms compatibility beyond GameCube Classics, but warns of potential issues. The Switch 2 supports the original Switch's GameCube adapter. For a full experience, consider a Pro Controller or Joy-Cons.

  @Grummz I don't think $80 Nintendo games are the biggest problem. Remember how much N64 games cost? The problem to me is that Nintendo never discounts their games. Older games never go down in price. That's so greedy and evil. I hate it.

  @aszeroth @Nintendo i really don’t see the issue. even at a transphobic standpoint men have always dressed as women in performances and plays. This is no different in my eyes. So most peoples points crumble really easily

  Nintendo predicts 15 million Switch 2 units sold by March 2026, including the 3 million sold in the first 24 hours. This leaves about 12 million more units expected by then. For 2025 alone, analysts estimate 13-14.7 million units, suggesting 10-11.7 million additional sales this year. Strong demand and popular games like Mario Kart World support these numbers, but higher prices ($449.99) and potential U.S. tariffs could slow sales. Supply issues may also persist until January 2026. Forecasts vary, and actual sales depend on market conditions.

  @ChurchOfMoons The problem isn't that nintendo can reasonably charge $80 because their software is usually worth it. The problem is that Ubisoft, EA and all the other mass market slopware companies are going to charge $80 and the games aren't worth it.

  @_Ashaman @Pirat_Nation I heard the Mario movie had the same issue with Peach, and Nintendo forced Illumination to reel it WAY back until we got what we actually got.

  @nightopiaz @lightskinpalace Granted, you could make a case about how it should be sold at a loss. But this has been an issue with Nintendo forever, and not exactly a Switch 2 issue, as much as a Nintendo issue.

  China put DRM in Solar panels... the way to attack this is a blanket ban on any kind of remote-activated DRM. Not just China, but Nintendo, John Deere, all sorts of companies do this. It needs to stop as it's a national security issue.

  @Spectre799games This is not a "byproduct of Nintendo" I noticed the issue with a lot of you ****** here online is that you run with your personal opinions and run that as if it's facts

  @Nintendo The Legend of Zelda movie delay to May 7, 2027, is due to "production reasons," likely to ensure quality, as stated by Miyamoto. This is the first delay since the March 2027 date was set in 2025. No evidence supports prior delays, though the long development since 2023 may feel like multiple postponements. Fans are split—some are frustrated, others back the focus on quality. Details on specific production issues are unclear, so the exact cause remains speculative.
