The FTC isn't saying that Microsoft suddenly is flexing its market dominance. What the FTC is referencing is a series of stipulations that Microsoft said they'd hold themselves to should the merger go through, and already Microsoft has broken just about all of them. The two biggest and most obvious ones are 1) Mass layoffs or the cutting of entire studios, and 2) No raising of the price of Gamepass or severe cutting of features to existing tiers.

I’m curious how the Nintendo deal will go that they made. Will they honor that or break that deal? Their only goal was owning abk and then skirting their way around the promises after post acquisition was profits over anything else regardless but somehow no one sees it. they grandstand and distract with promises to do better in showcases then go quiet. Complete radio silence after making announcements overpromising on everything isn’t a good practice for a business. its ok to be ambitious but overpromising underdelivering just takes the wind out of the sails everytime id want to get hyped by a showcase or announcement.

Seems like I recall 3rd parties have had joycon charging cradles available for quite some time. Since my original Switch was bricked by an aftermarket dock, I have avoided using anything other than the Nintendo dock to charge anything, although I'm sure the joycons would be fine with any brand of charger.

[@callak_9974]

yes, I bought a 3rd party joycon charger for like $15 and it can charge 4 at a time. I don't believe the joycons have any firmware (could be wrong), but since they wouldn't even be in use while charging (basically off) it shouldn't wreck them either.

Works great, AFAIK. tbh, I've never removed them from the stand though, but I know they have power, so it must be working. I very rarely use even my modded joy-cons, in favor of the pro controller.

Definitely. These streaming platforms is just a modernized version of cable TV packages but more expensive. It is suspicious that Nintendo would release something like this 7 years into the Switch.

At this point, Nintendo _needs_ to make an official statement about the next console. I think we can expect a PS5 Pro announcement at an event like Tokyo Game Show. It's going to be Sept 26 ~ Sept 29 so announcing it there with some games that can utilize PS5 Pro features would be a great place to do so. Maybe this holiday season I will finally get a PS5.

While I think the Switch is going to remain in the market, I think it'll only last 2 years more in production. Games for the system will probably last longer, even if they're just budget titles

They'd prolly keep in going in the developing world as a low cost alternative to Sony/PCs/Xbox.

Switch receiving years of support following the Switch 2's launch will lead to the Switch 2 selling less than the Switch. A lot of casuals will just stick to the OG switch and continue playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe instead of jumping to Switch 2 for Mario Kart 9 since it will likely be pretty much the same game.

Nintendo usually keep their last gen console around for 2-3 years before they fully discontinue it. The NES did not get discontinued until 1994, that's 3 years after the Super NES launch and the Super NES didn't get discontinued until 1998, that's 2 years after the N64 launch. The trend gets even longer as the Wii itself didn't get discontinued until 2017, that's 4 years after the Wii U launch and the same year the Nintendo Switch launch. This makes the Virtual Boy Nintendo's shortest supporting system as it had only been on the market for just one year.

I hope more sixth gen ports come to the Vita. My PSTV would be perfect for that. And a PS5 Pro is still stupid. There isn't even a real Slim with less power consumption. And most games are still crossgen aren't they?
