Then went on to talk about the system's pricing and differences in pricing between Japan and the rest of the world. He concluded as follows, quote, Anyway, with some of the things Nintendo is doing with the camera or mouse controls, creating new experiences, that's great. But other than that, I was personally a bit disappointed because they didn't disappoint everyone.

As the discussion went on, Yoshida acknowledged that Nintendo Switch 2 was a good business decision with technical improvements likely made by very intelligent, talented designers.

Yeah, like... Reacting with min-max to Nintendo Switch 2, right?

For me... Shuhei's an unemployed, washed-up game person. You know what I mean? Why are we listening? I'm kidding. I don't agree. I understand what Shu is saying, but I think that Nintendo in the past has gone far

I think Shu might actually be underselling how revolutionary or how Nintendo it is. That's a better way to put it. Because I do think the mouse controls are a bizarre, weird, okay, they're doing that. And will it be supported? What will it do? Will it lead to different things? Again, we're at the... Moment one. Oh, I did. That was a really good one. Moment one of Switch 2's announcement.

So, like, let's have this conversation again in three years when we see what their next Labo has been, what games have used mouse controls, what they are doing with all the goofy little tech they talk about that I don't care anything about. Nintendo is still making the weird Nintendo decisions, I think, in the Switch 2, but also just not throwing the baby out of the bathwater.

They don't need to restart and go from, alright, cool, Switch 1 was a success, we need to do everything all over again. We can still be that machine, we can still have third-party stuff in there for the people who want that, or just want, as we all know, their real games on the go. But Nintendo's... Bread and butter is being Nintendo first party.

And so they're still going to do that, and I do expect those games to use these things and make the WNDs and lead to the next Labo, which you've seen people do cool stuff with. Sure, but we didn't see Labo sell. We didn't see Labo become this runaway success thing. You still got your Amiibo reader in there, so that opens up the door to some weird-ass shit they want to do with that. Fine, whatever.

There's those things that are still there, but I think it's too early to be like, oh, this wasn't weird enough or Nintendo enough. I think they're still very Nintendo and their games speak to that.

Shu just wants to see them make the Nintendo Switch 2 into the Vita. All right? A bubble interface, a touch-back pad. Get out of here, Shu. All right? That's on you, Shu. The things that Nintendo would do. That Vita's on you, Shu.
