News / Leaks / Rumors / Re: Nintendo Switch 2

Last post by Mai Valentine - June 07, 2025, 08:45:12 AM

From what I saw on launch, the Switch 2 shouldn't actually be that bad to get (at least until around Christmas when everything will be hard to get). We had 26 systems for launch at my store; 19 Mario Kart bundles and 7 of the regular. The bundle was more popular and sold out within three hours. The regular one took five hours. But that's at least 2 1/2 more hours than I expected (I thought we would sell our inventory the first 30 minutes).

I was tempted to get one but decided I'll wait until either there's a fun special edition or until Pokemon generation 10 comes out. I don't expect that until late 2026 though. By then more games will be out as well so it's a win win IMO.

I did end up going to see it. I really enjoyed it. It had the right amount of action, humor, and character driven moments.

@Mai Valentine - Did you see it?  If so, what were your thoughts?

I think it stands alright on its own.  There are definitely tie-ins with the MCU and at least 1 of the older series on Disney+.  I won't spoil it just in case.

Hey @Mai Valentine !   Yeah... I will eventually get one as well.  Some factors right now are keeping me from purchasing stuff right now as well.  But also.... Good luck getting one... what the heck.  The purchasing bots really are killing it anymore.

I used to be able to get stuff before day 1 ... or at least on day 1.  I haven't been able to do that since the ps5.

I am not the one.  I have been scared to watch it. I have been burned so many times by Marvel and the way they have churned out some of the poor stuff recently. Whenever they release it on Disney+ I will check it out. I am not into going to the theater much anymore, especially since we do not have one locally. Really Thunderbolts is the movie I am looking forward to...................

looking forward to the mission impossible collection steel book (please make this happen!)

I spend less buying the special editions than a trip to the movies in all honesty. I am looking forward to watching the movie though, just from the comfort of my own couch and loud enough so my neighbors complain.

I don't know if any one else is pumped for this movie... but Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning!  is in Theaters - May 23rd, 2025.  Hard to believe Dead Reckoning was launched 2 years ago... time flies when you're having fun... 

Some have said this is the final movie, others have stated this is not the final movie and the series may continue.  Others have said someone will die (not a spoiler, this is literally every Mission Impossible)...

Either way, I'm pumped for this movie.  Are you looking forward to Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning?

Thoughts? comments? post it up!

I'll eventually get a Switch 2. Nintendo still has a few franchises that you just can't get anywhere else. But I can't fit it in the budget currently. I have enough games from current consoles that I haven't finished to keep me going for a few years at least.

The most recent binge was Frieren: Beyond Journey's End on Netflix. It's soooo good. I ended up buying the physical version so I can still watch it when I eventually cancel Netflix.
