Nintendo FINALLY Talks Nintendo Switch 2 AND June Direct!

all right so yesterday in Japan because Japan is ahead of us they are in the future much like the east coast is ahead of the West Coast we had Nintendo's latest investor briefing where they go over things like console sales software sales all of that sort of fun stuff now considering Nintendo is in a bit of an interesting situation with 2024 thus far really no sort of games announced beyond the summertime window many people were antic anticipating this event to see what it would bring about well we did get some updated Nintendo statistics such as tear of the Kingdom kind of flatlining a bit like I said it was going to but nobody listened to me the switch itself selling over 141 million systems but it wasn't necessarily what was done at the investors meeting that is drawing a lot of attention it was done after the investors meeting with a tweet yes a tweet done by President f himself or somebody doing the tweet for him now of course I am not a Nintendo YouTuber but occasionally I will talk about Nintendo stuff and there's a lot to unpack within this tweet so if this is your first time here make sure you hit that subscribe button but let's just go over this and I will give you guys my thoughts so here we are Folks at 3:00 a.m. of course because like I said Japan's in the future man this is fuara no it's not like like people thought that shagu there was a TW tweet that like shagaru mamoto made it was like this is mamoto and every was like hello low look mamoto is tight it's like it's not it's not him what is wrong with you people it's if someone typing it for him like I don't think he logged into the Nintendo Co account and said this stuff which is the business account for Nintendo not Nintendo of Japan not Nintendo of America the business side of things but let me calm down president of Nintendo we will make an announcement about the successor to Nintendo switch within this fiscal year so that was something that a lot of people have been anticipating you know what we're just going to read this and then I'll give you guys my thoughts on it when we're done it will have been over nine years since we announced the existence of the Nintendo switch back in March 2015 we will be holding a Nintendo Direct this June regarding the Nintendo switch software lineup for the latter half of 2024 but please be aware that there will be no mention of the Nintendo switch successor during the presentation so before we break things down and sort of look at it I do want to say this is the most Nintendo thing in the world like I know you're going to say well they announced the Nintendo switch in a similar manner when they said the Nintendo NX is is coming this that or the other that was a completely different ball game you had to do something because investors were tired of the company with the Wii U the games media industry was tired of everything with with the Wii U you had to make people excited you would think that with a very successful system such as the Nintendo switch you would go about you know the first announcement the first concrete announcement with the release of when you know you're actually going to Showcase this Beast would be done in a little bit more of a of a different manner like a little bit more Pomp and Circumstance but you know that that's kind of telling to me about the situation that Nintendo finds themselves in because like I said this is coming to us from the business account meaning that this only talks about business related things they're not talking about like upcoming games and stuff like that and it's almost like we're at a point where investors are kind of looking at things they're like okay well things are slowing down your software is slowing down where the hell is this new hardware you know where where where is this where's the next thing you're obviously holding something back and I think everyone can sort of agree with that sentiment so with this being announced within the upcoming fiscal year meaning that between now and March of 2025 the system will be officially unveiled as far as you know getting a look at it learning about you know what's different probably price point all sorts of fun stuff like that so now we're kind of on this this window of time but to me it's kind of the window of time that I've been operating on you know I I'm not I wasn't one of those channels that thought you know oh it's still going to come out in 2024 we kind of moved on from that here I don't know who we is it's just me and Brett sometimes that is but I kind of moved on from that train of thought you know my whole philosophy was more so based on this 2025 release maybe figuring out why we have to wait until 2025 and then just kind of checking things out as they come along so I find this this whole thing about the switch 2 or whatever they're going to up calling it I find it very puzzling that it was done in this manner because obviously you know once we get all the translated stuff out of the investors meeting with the Q&A section because that's where all the real stuff is going to happen even though sometimes these investors ask some very stupid questions I find it very puzzling that this is the way that that Nintendo decided to go into I'm glad that they did say something because like I you know this is a two-part tweet here we have the existence of the switch 2 and the unveiling of it between now and March of 2025 which you know 10 months away but we also have the confirmation of a June Nintendo Direct once again you had all these jackasses out there April direct may direct they're going to do it early and it's like no what what did I always say that it was going to be a June Nintendo Direct now they did say that the switch 2 will not be at the June Nintendo Direct of course not they never released Le they never unveil Hardware at these presentation like I I I I honestly feel like some of these people that talk about this video game stuff especially when it comes to Nintendo stuff they they don't understand the history they don't understand how Nintendo operates and how they've always operated like quit saying stuff and leading your audience astray or else you're going to wind up with no audience but we now have confirmation of a June Nintendo Direct talking about the latter half of games for 2024 and once again much like the Nintendo switch 2 situation I find this to be very interesting just because of the fact that Nintendo has done a very good job of kind of leading you up you know you you learn about games like except for like games like tears of the Kingdom you know Zelda games and Metroid uh Prime 4 those are the two games that are kind of outliers but Nintendo has done a very good job this generation of telling you about games and showing you games that will be coming out in a very short turnaround time so that way you kind of have everything planned when it comes to their first party releases but with this stuff like bro after you know you get Paper Mario and Luigi's Mansion 2 HD both of which are just you know remas remakes whatever of you know previous games that people have played we don't know anything and so I I find that very interesting because once again now we know that the Nintendo switch 2 is essenti looming on the horizon which we should have all known that already but with that system looming on the horizon how much are you going to want to put onto the standard Nintendo switch you obviously still want that to sell you want people to buy Nintendo switch systems you want them to buy Nintendo switch games and releasing new games for the system will help that especially considering that it's been kind of a soft 20124 yes there has been games but really they're they're they're kind of smaller Productions will we continued to see you know smaller Productions out of Nintendo for the second half of 2024 as we're gearing up towards this 2025 Nintendo switch 2 the way I see this playing out is probably some more remakes and remasters you know maybe you finally get Twilight Princess and Wind Waker and your Metroid primes like a bunch of GameCube stuff which I mean I'm not discrediting it I would love to play Twilight Princess again because I absolutely love that game and I think it's one of the most criminally underrated Zelda games but I'm not quite sure you know maybe some Mario like a Mario baseball game like that's a pretty safe thing that and people will buy it you know if it's better than uh Strikers was because that's one of the worst games on the switch I don't care what anyone says but it it Nintendo has put themselves in a very unique situation here and I'm very curious to see kind of how this all plays out you know when are we going to learn about things when are they going to Showcase things and my my mind they show this off you know I guess September October maybe like how much do you want to hurt your holiday sales when it comes to the Nintendo switch or are you at the point where you don't necessarily care you sold over 141 million systems of the switch it's done its job I wouldn't worry about cannibalizing those sales because what I would do is I would price drop that system price drop the standard Nintendo switch do some bundles and stuff like that people will buy it because it's a cheaper system and then you know when the switch 2 comes out if it has a great software library and all that sort of stuff you don't have anything to worry about but obviously quite a lot of information there and I'm sure we'll learn some more stuff when the um investors report comes out about what was asked what was said all that sort of stuff which we'll talk about it if there's anything like you know super interesting in that but I kind of wanted to break all this down from my perspective as always remember this is just my perspective on the situation that not saying that it's right or wrong but I mean I I like to think that I'm right so let me know what you think about all of this in the comments section down below are you surprised that this system was first talked about via a tweet on Nintendo's business account like does that kind of make you a little bit leery about how they're going to handle this system you know obviously you don't do that unless investors are asking questions so I feel like you know there's going to be some interesting stuff Stu coming out of that investor Q&A obviously I'm sure Nintendo's not going to say too much but this is f Cara he's making the Tweet right now I wonder how he made it like got a computer on an iPhone on an Android F Cara seems like an Android person because Android is better than iPhone let me know what you think of all this in the comments section down below and as
