Nintendo demoed Switch 2 to developers at Gamescom

Im not interested unless it has; Hall effect thumb sticks to reduce stick drift

An OLED screen

Backwards compatibility with Switch 1 games.

A headphone jack that allows game chat and game audio

And is designed to be easily repaired, like not having tons of adhesive, uncommon screw types etc

They're never going to get rid of the tri-wing screws.
- Is there a practical reason they use those obnoxious screws or is it simply to discourage home repairs? When I had to replace my Switch's fan last year, those insanely tiny screws were a pain in the ass to not accidentally strip.
So you want a modded steam deck?
- Wait, you can put a OLED screen on the Steam Deck?
You're not going to be interested then.
Lmao keep dreaming then. The switch aint ever gonna be that.
There's already a version of the switch that has an OLED screen
- Yes and the switch 2 needs to continue with this trend

The 'Switch 2' having a camera for literally no reason is extremely on-brand for Nintendo, so I kind of believe it.
I love it when my connected and likely not security hardened devices needlessly include components that would be valuable to compromise.
- If the Switch 2's OS is anything like the Switch's current revision of Horizon, it's an extremely hardened OS. They've done a surprisingly good job plugging software holes.
- On the bright side, in a few years it will be fun to attempt photography on like how people use the DSi camera. It's not much, but it's something 🤷
It's gonna be for AR dude.
- 3DS advertised AR from the get-go, even coming with a set of cards and built-in games to show it off. Never ended up being anything more than a neat tech demo that people forgot about almost immediately. Haven't really seen anything to make me think people are more interested in it now, over a decade later.
Eh, a camera can be useful, on the 3DS it's great for scanning a QR code rather then manually entering a url.
And really at this point why not throw a camera on the Switch 2? The parts for a cellphone camera is like what... a couple bucks?
- I mean it's one banana Michael
- *than
The fact that I had to open an app on my phone for voice chat meant that I never ever used voice chat.
I don't really care if the next Nintendo console has a camera. But I extremely do not want to be forced to use some app on my phone to play the game on my Switch.

Please backwards compatible, please OLED, please enough power to 720p60fps everything natively (no upscaling, cause that sucks on such low res, Idm 4k upscaling).

1080p60fps on portable would be a dream but I‘m not that delusional.

I‘d also be hyped if they could offer joycons that make it usable for extended amounts of time in portable without destroying my hands or having to rely on third party cases.

Can we add a cheaper non-portable option to the wishlist? I don't like paying for a screen or battery or junky mobile controllers that I will never use.
- This is exactly where I’m at. I don’t think my switch has left the dock on purpose since I bought it, what a waste of resources.

You mean the Switch U? Super Switch? Switch Advance?

Swiitch
NINTENDO SWITCHTY FOUR
- This right here is the correct answer
I'm hoping for Switch Advance. I'd love a throwback logo and that old "Bling!" startup sound.
- Boi if it has that bling and a transparent frosty blue option it's over, I'm buying it day one. I miss my Gameboy advanced so much, or maybe I miss being a kid, who knows.
After the Wii U fiasco I'd be shocked if they called it anything other than Switch 2.
- I'd be shocked if they learned, but relieved as well.
Switch Color
- NEW Nintendo Switch 3D XLi and Knuckles
Switch 64, duh. :V
- Some emoji fan already said "Nintendo Switchty-Four," so I'm afraid you've been outdone before you even commented.

My only wish for this console, is that it doesn't launch with an SoC, that's already a year outdated, by the time the thing is announced

Literally impossible since SoC vendors literally can't deliver working pre-production chips for development work
I mean, they say they do, but they really don't
Nintendo is going to want a console they can keep standardized for a while without hitting hardware limits early. It’s one of the only major flaws of the Switch, and while it’s not entirely their fault, they know the type of direction devs want to move in. IMHO they will have listened in this regard.
I don’t expect it will run “on par with PS5” as some rumors have suggested, though.
- The PS5 is the size of a small boat. The only way Nintendo can release a portable console that matches it would be if it came in a wheelbarrow.
- Yeah I agree, the Switch family in general are mostly meant to play official games like Zelda, DK and Mario whose older incarnations were also designed for other small consoles that ran on battery power, and not-so-demanding third-party games that can be played without connection to power like Minecraft BE. They’re like a modern DS with a bigger screen that you can connect to a TV and play with detachable controllers, and never pretended to be anything more.

Flip down magnified screen and light

Cool! Despite its age, I'm still loving the Switch. Best all around library of consistently good games, at least single/local multiplayer.
