Last post by BLUEVOODU - June 03, 2026, 10:56:31 AMRetro posted a pretty cool announcement with video of the Evercade Nexus! This is the Evercade Nexus Pre-order topic for Amazon if you wish. The Nexus is strictly a handheld and looks great. It also comes with cart that contains the 64 bit games Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie. I was a little surprised about the inclusion of these RARE games. This unit also plays all the standard carts.

Last post by targetrasp - May 29, 2026, 08:57:34 PMI'm there with you on the trying to get into a NES game. If its not Zelda, Castlevania, or Metroid I've not given it ten minutes in the last 5 - 10 years. Its a lot easier going back to the SNES.

Last post by BLUEVOODU - May 29, 2026, 04:10:09 PMNice! I will throw out a pre-order topic as well. It's not a super expensive system... but I like the system at $169.95 LOL. Maybe it would be without the Banjo collection

Nintendo - Switch 2, Switch, 3DS, and Wii-U / Re: Nintendo Switch 2’s Year 1...
Last post by BLUEVOODU - May 29, 2026, 04:08:57 PMGood post @Bomberman! For sure, I agree the Nintendo Switch 2 Launch is better than the Nintendo Switch 1's launch. Factor in that you can play all the Switch 1 games... it is primed to be an awesome system. The performance increases are also notable - we will see how long those increases are noticeable and last in the future as games progress.
I think the Nintendo Switch 2 pricing has caused some of the slower adoption. We are getting to a point where it will be more expensive to upgrade to the Switch 2 from the Switch... and Switch 1 releases will start to get slower. Peripherals are also insanely expensive now (see topic). They were pretty high with the Switch 1, but the Switch 2 Peripherals cost more. A few of these reasons coupled together have caused a slower adoption of the Switch 2.
At the end of the day, I think the Switch 2 is going to start gaining a ton of steam. The games launched have all been pretty good ... even down to Kirby Air Riders
I think it's going to be that cost, which who knows how how it will go in the near future, that slows up Switch 2 adoption. The games are there.
Let's go Star Fox!
