        Unfortunately, yes. They outsold switch 1 by about 2 mil so far in it’s first year and there’s still a few months to go. I will eventually get one I’m sure, but probably second hand.

        I mean, wasn’t switch 2 the fastest selling console of all time?

        No, the fastest selling NINTENDO console (IIRC)

          I think I was misremembering a few recent milestones actually. The Switch recently overtook DS to become Nintendo’s best overall selling, while Switch 2 has already sold more than WiiU.

      Honestly, it could hurt it sales a lot. Historically, a lot of successful Nintendo systems had backwards comparability as a major selling point.

        I don’t understand your point. How is blocking emus ruining the Switch 2’s backward compatibility?
