What a random night for Nintendo to announce this

    You know it’s day time in Japan at the time of the post, right?

  2. Hey, at least they did it. That’s kinda cool even if I still want some good updates for the current Nintendo switch

    Good on them, straightforward expectations management

  4. Announcing that their June direct will not contain any Switch2 news and that will happen in this fiscal year is a perfectly appropriate thing to tweet out. 

    It’s not announcing/confirming the switch2. Everyone knows a successor is coming. 

    Managing our expectations a month ahead in a text release is fine and good. And necessary. We’re so close if they didn’t tell us I’d imagine the June direct would have info.

    Honestly I appreciate this sort of straight forward clarity. It lays out a clearly defined game plan. So often you’ll see quotes that are either vague or intentional misrepresentation that the community just runs with. This is perfectly clear.

    Its an announcement of an announcement. And that announcement could be “we are not intending to release a successor for many years, but we are diligently working on designing it”
