Nintendo plans to beat the scalpers with the Switch 2 with one cunning trick - just make enough consoles from the start

Nintendo has eased concerns about the launch availability of its upcoming Switch 2 console, but in a strange twist, will demand meet supply?

Will the Switch 2 be a success? Nintendo prepares for 2025 release

Nintendo, as a whole, has done many incredible things over its lifetime, and many would point to the Switch as one of its best ideas ever. The system has had numerous big titles across the first and third-party space, and the platform itself encouraged gamers to truly “play anywhere” they wanted. However, if one were to point to one of the true “downsides” of the console, they’d likely point to Nintendo Switch Online. That might seem harsh, but the reason for this is simple: it’s the service that is required to use the internet for their titles, both big and small. Without it, you can’t go online and access the servers.

PlayStation Users Surprised With New Free Download to End Days of Play

Nintendo has unleashed a major update to the NES library for Switch Online subscribers tonight of wildly varying quality. Urban Champion (1984/86) is a rare foray into the 1v1 fighting genre by Nintendo, which was later adapted into arcades. It was previously re-released on Wii and Wii U Virtual Console, as well as being one of the six Nintendo published 3D Classics for 3DS - a baffling decision at the time that only became more baffling with time.

Pokémon Battle Revolution Finally Becomes A True Stadium Successor

We’re four years into the PlayStation 5’s lifecycle, which means that we’ve likely hit the halfway point. Console generations tend to last around eight years these days, so it’s not impossible that we’ll get a PlayStation 6 by 2028. While it might seem way too early to start anticipating a far off console (and it is), the reality is that the groundwork for it is likely being laid as we speak. Large scale exclusives can take well over four years to produce, which means that some PS6 games could be in the works right this second.

PlayStation 6 predictions: games we expect to see on PS6

EA has announced that it will delist three Battlefield titles from the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 digital storefronts at the end of the month. On July 31, the PS3/Xbox 360 versions of Battlefield 3, Battlefield 4, and Battlefield: Hardline, along with their associated DLCs, will be removed from sale. Owners of these games will still be able to play their single-player content, but online support for these titles will end on November 7. The embedded announcement post on X also includes a link to an FAQ to answer additional questions about the sunsetting process.

As we reach what we expect to be the midpoint of this console generation, we can’t help but look to the future. In four years, there’s a very good chance the hardware hype cycle will start up once again as Sony plans to release a PlayStation 6. While we’re certainly jumping the gun in anticipating it (we’re still waiting for a PS5 Pro, after all), we’ve been taking a moment this month to reflect on this console generation and what we want from the next one based on how its gone.
