I remember the room clearly. Old colleague CNET, Jeff Bakalar, and me They were running in a room Flowed with Nintendo Switch toys to play. But what we flocked to on January was an experiment that involved the cows of Aleppo with Switch Joy-Cons.
What is happening exactly here, as we said. We surprised the absurdity.
That game It was 1-2 keyAnd it was not discussed or displayed during the first Autumn Declaration 2016. I left a surprise, and revealed closer to Switch’s launch. This is the thing that I watch when it is Switching 2 details And games The entire veil revealed April 2. Whimsy is a Nintendo call card, and the 2 -year -old is due to a dose of strangeness that I think may be just around the corner.
How strange is? We do not have an indicator yet. But this is the thing: the stranger is the best when it is a surprise. This is also Nintendo.
I was taking a hot dog with Joy-Con, using an infrared camera, around 2017.
Switch 1-2 was an educational program for new ways to play on Switch
A group of strange collaborative players ’games encouraged you to look away from TV or switch and face each other to play the apparent Ping-Pong (or milk cows or eat hot dogs). There was something completely strange and immediately started a conversation on this topic. It was also a relative failure for Nintendo, something that tried to switch to a continuation that does not seem to ignite great attention. But my children still like to play them from time to time. It is unambiguous, something that “Nintendo feels very strange” and a very nintendo adapter.
Watch this: Nintendo Switch 2 announced: All we know
I have said this before, and I will say it again: Nintendo deals with a whims and unexpected. As the company plays it is safe with the concession to Mario and Zelda, and repeated classic game hairstyles, the company’s company assets always appear with an unexpected curve. To date, there have been very few surprises when it comes What has been announced From the key 2: a Similar design designThe new Mario Cart game and some small features that seem to match the reports mentioned for a period of time (Snap-on Magnetic Joy-Cons, for example).
But my favorite Nintendo moments are always strange. The entire WII (and Wii U plate, for this issue) is one. Nintendo to them Another, everyone was shocked with completely unlikely paper creations that turned the key into a robot backpack, VR headphones or a hunting group. Plastic fitness supplement Ringing adventure and Mario Cart LiveA full set of RC cars that broadcast the AR race in switching. Or hey, that small sudden game and viewerships with Zelda and Mario on it … or Nintendo Alarmo.
Nintendo warning watches are already here. What is in the store?
Wonderfulness: The cornerstone of Nintendo
In 2017, I spoke to Yoshiaki Koizumi from NintendoThen the general product of the Nintendo key, about this exact type of things. “Good strange strangeness is really important to us. You may play milk, and you laugh, you enjoy yourself, but you will return to that later and think how strange it and the amount of fun.”
At the time, Nintendo even contacted the immediate diversity of the transformer and the oldest company’s products, playing paper. Issuing a classic game for switching later, Club gamesThis was followed more than that with unique ways to play.
Nintendo was on this way with other games of rotation, such as Warroer And rhythm heaven (which It was just announced For the key), new improved games like ARMS, which use boxing movements inside the air, or Snipperclips, which is another launch game that completely charms and includes paper puzzle creatures (or attacking each other), as ways to explore the Switch cooperative control unit.
Mario tends to be a surprising means.
Woeing like the game design
Recently, Super Mario Bruce indicated. Mario was not a two -dimensional on the radar of anyone, and the game itself celebrated the players ’throwing to get a episode at each stage with new soluble fluctuations and strange new characters.
Super Mario Bros. Director. Wonder, Shero Mori, in 2023 for the game Seek to achieve mystery and wonder. Mori said: “The main basic concept that we used to go was to create a game full of secrets and puzzles.” “The original Super Mario Bros. is the original, a game full of secrets and puzzles.”
Another Zelda game, Echoes of wisdom A similar surprise was out of anywhere-a similar way to diverting the table to re-invent the idea of how to play Zelda games.
Nintendo is expected to make Mario 3D game a hub to launch Switch 2, and again, making me wonder about the extent to which Nintendo is inserted into Mario as a way to provide similar surprises.
Yes, Labo Robot backpack.
Labo Lesson: Do not deduct the accessories
the Labo cardboard groups It did not reach the key until a year in the life of the console, but they followed a similar path of smart alertness about the standard switching possibilities. Many LABO models included types of accessories that Nintendo usually manufacture in plastic, but this time she played with cardboard: steering wheels, hunting bars, rollers, musical instruments, and giant birds, VR headphones. Several Joy-Con accessories, acceleration standards, vibratory vibrations, and infrared cameras were used in programming ways.
Abo also had a sign of Nintendo’s boundaries of new ideas. Tsubasa Sakaguchi, director and leading programs in Labo, Tell me in 2019 The overlap between the familiar and the stranger has always been part of Nintendo design ideas. “Something you feel you know and something new, and a point that overlaps, and this is what we are always looking for. But because everything develops every day and everything changes, this overlap changes.”
Where could the intervention point be in 2025? The new Switch 2 contains the re-designed mystery Joy-CONS, which looks forward to the possibilities of communication. And according to what control units are operating, such as optical mice, capable of movement of the reading schedule. Can they both sensitize cameras? It seems that it gets rid of a magnetic in new ports on the sides of the key. Can these outlets allow other additions to the additions?
Finally, Switch 2 contains a second USB-C port, which means one at the top now in addition to the bottom. That caught my attention immediately. The existing key and hand, such as the steam surface, contains only one USB-C port, mainly used for charging and dock. However, the Steam Windows Handhelds can use USB-C to connect external offers and glasses supported by the show, which means that you can put a pair of Xreal glassesFor example, play games while moving on a large virtual screen.
Nintendo already has Incred in VR and ARBut can this new effort offer a pair of Nintendo glasses or at least in agreement with glasses from others? Or exactly this port? What about the amazing camera with motion tracking devices or the second screen? I can dream of alert forever, but my real point is that there are all kinds of ways that the new key can offer 2 tracks for future accessories … and Nintendo is a company that loves to play with new, strange and strange accessories.
Subscription curve, perhaps?
It can be the last field of surprise in what Nintendo hangs Online switching On switch 2. The subscription service has added a lot since the first Switch appeared, and the reactionary virtual control unit in two levels of prices already makes the switch one of the best ways to play the old Nintendo and Sega games on the move.
But Nintendo has not provided any subscription support for classic games on Gamecube, Wii, Wii U – or Nintendo DS and 3DS, for this issue. DS on the screen is its strange problem that must be solved, but I also wonder if Nintendo may offer some of the back catalog games in Switch in the form of subscription as well. Microsoft and Sony have already for years at higher prices. Will Nintendo also feel this way and test the amount of Nintendo fans? Indeed, Nintendo has previously announced a new way Share digital games On the key and switch 2 and A new phone application. It can be more changes in the air.
We will know soon
the Nintendo direct offer For switching 2 is April 2, we expect more details about the mysterious control unit. But whatever functional promotions, I am waiting for the emergence of the stranger from nintendo and attracts nausea again. I am ready for cow’s milk.
