Cannot be used as a second screen for Wii U mode on Switch 2.

Nintendo, you pioneered this shit. The eyeballs bouncing between 2 screen shit. I just turned my Wii U on today after months and uhh… what the fuck I want this again. There is 150 million switches out there, don’t leave em to dust. Star Fox Zero… My goodness, I just had a blast playing the co-op mode with my son. Screw the haters, utilize this monster base you have and grace us with more whacky non-sense. Just don’t force it down our throats as the only option. More like a reward, like oh. You bought a Switch? Cool, now use it on this optional bonus mode and kick ass. Sweet. Done. 11 million copies sold.

And bring back the Miis. The creepy fucks in Switch Sports DIDNT look rite, they killed the vibe. I want my Jesus vs. Obama. Chuck Norris vs. Tyson. Gentrified tweens is not what we want.

Just don’t fuck this up, 8 years is a long time Nintendo. I actually have white hairs in my beard now. This is almost not cool.

Beyond the so many frames per second make your eyes bleed. 8K my god I can see a pimple. DEI turned vigilantes, anti vigilantes turned DEI, price hike bitches, upscale deeznutz pssrd5000. Let me let me upgrade is all I see on this forum half the time and dammit I am just looking for fun games.

And while the Wii U could barely download a fucking patch under a gig….

Fucking A dude the Star Fox shit works. My 5 year old flying the damn arwing gliding thru bitches while I am gunning these suckers down and I felt like a kid again for moments again.

Not saying every game, but that damn Miyamoto. Son of a bitch he knows things.

Not sure how Nintendo would exactly benefit from this. 150 million Switches are already sold. Why would Nintendo care to make the old console more useful when they need to/want to sell the new console? The new console is going to sell regardless, and those who jump into the Switch 2 without having had a Switch (8 years' time to have gotten one) are not going to buy both consoles for this.
Nintendo have already said Switch 2 is backwards compatible, no way anybody is going to buy both consoles if they did not have the old one already.

I loved the Wii U, the second screen meant when i played Mario kart with my gf or brother i could look at the controller and they could look at the TV so we both got full screens. No split screen cramping the view.

I think OPs idea is genius. Would love to see it happen.

Dude... No

You really think Nintendo will want to remind anyone that WiiU even existed?

I loved WiiU, but it's not a part of Nintendo's legacy they'll be celebrating anytime soon.

 

[StereoVsn]

Yeah, that’s not happening, OP.

What they do need to implement is full BC on both digital and physical games and preferably some sort of a boost mode.

Edit: And preferably allow Switch 1 controllers including joycons (detached of course) to work with Switch 2.

That's already been confirmed.

Nintendo has confirmed its Switch successor will be backward compatible with Switch games. Pokémon

Although they didn't state if this would be digital, physical or both, considering Nintendo's BC track record, I think we can safely assume both will work.

Until I see it, I don’t trust them 100% lol.

You're the smartest idiot I know.

Nintendo should allow Switch (or Switch 2's) to be used as extra screens for Switch 2 (just like they should have for original Switch), but not for asinine ideas like Star Fox Zero.

Instead, make it a way to achieve asymmetrical gameplay (Nintendo Land) and individual screens (Four Swords) without limiting it to only one tablet connected and forcing the purchase (Wii U).

For the three people who liked Star Fox, I guess there's that too, but I wouldn't even re-release it for the embarrassment.

 

[John Bilbo]

The Wii U had some great multiplayer games using the two screen system. I'd very much like to play Star Fox Zero on my Switch or the next console.

These things are not happening though. Nintendo will not want to confuse their customers with stuff like this.

Hey, there's this Nintendo patent (via NotebookCheck) that allows you to use smartphones as controllers, maybe they might eventually allow streaming to a phone as well.

Almost worthless without the controllers attached.

Dammit, the world is not in full Idiocracy mode yet. Giving value to the previous console does not inherently de-value the new one.

Especially when the Switch 2 is where these new experiences could be created for.

Wii U was a complete and utter failure, however, the few gems on there cannot be replicated because the experience is directly tied to a 2-screen interface.

 

[Sgt.Asher]

Doubt the switch has the right components to have it work well. As i recall the wii u used a modified wi-fi protocol to stream the video. Would be cool though.

 

[LordOfChaos]

Well I guess it's going to be whack then
