 Hey everyone Man this kind of sucks like my eighth recording of this and having some issues with my equipment today But you know what doesn't not gonna stop me here because we have some important news about switchboard talk Well, you've already seen the headline title So you're all well aware of what it is and I'm gonna provide the evidence to show you that There is indeed going to be exclusive games in the switch pro But I want to talk about this from a couple angles one from the idea that obviously This is stupid Nintendo shouldn't do it Nintendo hasn't done it before there's gonna be people that say that Another angle is going to be where it's a good thing. I Know hold on to your butt cheeks And the other angle is where regardless of how we know this is happening. We should have expected it now Before I get into this I want to remind you we are giving away a copy of Monster Hunter Rise and to $20 Nintendo switch PlayStation or Xbox gift cards to enter head down to the description or the pinned comment Otherwise, let's get into this stuff because oh boy. Do we have some great? Stuff to talk about now This original topic comes from Nate Drake aka Nate the hate You might know him from the spawncast over on spawnway one of the most popular if not the most popular video game podcast in the world Also, he has his own YouTube channel and he's been well known well before even any of this YouTube stuff To be an industry insider with multiple connections to several third-party publishers He himself may even work in the industry. I'm not exactly sure on his entire background I've never really had a personal conversation with him. Although of note I have been on two episodes of the spawncast over a year ago And I believe he was present for at least one if not both of those episodes, but I have not had any direct interaction with him I will link to his channel and his podcast as well where he goes into much deeper dive discussions on this stuff Which there's a lot you can glean out of it actually at the Nate the hate YouTube channel only his channel down in the description as well But he didn't talk about this at his channel at least he didn't talk about it So bluntly and directly although he's probably referenced it if you listen through his podcast He came out on reset era when people were talking about whether or not there's gonna be exclusives I'm the switch pro and in a thread all about the Bloomberg article because a Bloomberg article clearly detailed We're getting a switch pro. It's likely coming this year Mass production starting by the summer We are you know getting a 720p screen again, but it's going to be a bigger screen. It's going to be an OLED panel We're going to be getting at least a 4k output bare minimum for Hulu and Netflix Which we can't do currently or Hulu and Netflix Hulu in YouTube man Do I wish Netflix was on switch, but whatever that's neither human or there I have plenty of devices to watch all this stuff on I personally don't even use YouTube apps and all of a sudden that much on switch Maybe I would if it was 4k more often I do have three 4k TVs in my house doesn't mean I'm richy rich over here 4k TVs are really really cheap and none of these TVs are like the super expensive really nice Even though probably when I game on there's no HDR 10 or any of that So it's not like you know I'm rocking like the massive panels over here that that give you the best possible gaming experience But I'm just an average consumer. I get 4k TVs, you know, I get them cheap. It is what it is so I Think that we could take that Bloomberg article and take it mostly as fact And I think this because the person who did it not Bloomberg as well Forget the outlet the person who wrote it Takahashi Matsuzuki used to work for the Wall Street Journal and He in the past got everything right about switchlight literally down to exact dimension details He announced all of this before Nintendo unveiled it and then obviously released it. He knew everything so Clearly he's got real context in the industry That's why I can believe the stuff he says about the 720p OLED panel 7-inch screen 4k output I can believe all this and then we can kind of expound from there what that stuff actually means but Nate Drake came out and Talked about this a little bit further talking about how there's concerns about exclusives And he says there will be some select exclusives, especially from third-party partners may not be a big number of them But I know of at least one and he said this over on reset era doesn't really matter if you like reset error Not it's about the person the information comes from not about where the where the information was posted. So here's the thing He knows of at least one third-party exclusive game that's going to switch pro that will not be on current switches And when you think about it, it feels kind of idiotic for a game like that to exist, you know logically It's stupid. Why would there be exclusive games on the switch pro from third parties or Nintendo? It makes no sense. Why would you leave the 80 plus million current switch owners? Probably 90 plus 95 maybe a hundred million switch and switch light owners behind by making exclusive games on a platform There's not gonna be that many of and if we're honest scalpers might make extremely difficult for anyone to get their hands on Why then would they do this like why are they going to have exclusives at all after all? The PlayStation 4 pro Xbox 1x did not have exclusive games They required all games that were coming to that platform also come to the Xbox one in PlayStation 4 After all the PlayStation 5 and play state in Xbox series X are out and s can't forget about that as well And pretty much there's like no exclusives because almost everything coming to it third party and even first party wise Beside beyond demon souls of course an astros playroom which was built specifically for ps5 as a demo Those games are all also going to PlayStation 4 and Xbox one for at least the next year or two And I talked in the past how it would make a lot of sense for all games at launch to come to switch pro But also the old gen switches for at least another couple years up until they're ready to talk about the next gen switch Or they could then have you know exclusive games on that that also may become on the probe But then don't come on the og switch that was my hope in my dream But that's apparently not reality looking at what Nintendo is doing according to nature There's going to be third-party exclusive games bare minimum Maybe not a huge number of them, but there will be some but you know what what are we talking about here with Nintendo? Why would Nintendo allow that to have why wouldn't they mandate like Sony and Microsoft did that you cannot have exclusive games on this platform well switches in the same market as the PlayStation 5 next by series X as As a switch owner who asks also owns like the PlayStation 5 series X is like a little bit off-camera here As someone who owns those platforms I would still like the option to get third-party games like Call of Duty's Assassin's Creed's etc I just was just examples. There's other better games out there. You can probably come up with I would like to see those games Come to switch in some form obviously streaming is a way But I would like to see come to a forum I could play natively so I could literally play on the go without worry of an internet connection That would be my personal preference that that's at least an option plus then you can also have people end up double dipping right now People are actually looking at double dipping for things like the Diablo 2 remake coming because guess what though remaster whatever you want to call it Resurrection the reason that people are excited about that is because it's got cross-platform play But not only that is cross-platform saves So like the Witcher 3 you can play it on your PC You can play it on your Xbox your PlayStation whatever and then bring your save file over to the switch and continue it on the go and vice versa It's actually an ideal situation for companies that want to try to convince consumers to double dip You could argue they could include two versions for one price, but that's a different story The bottom line is that it's in the center to double dip and it adds value to the switch to have the option to Play these games in a form in a position in a way that you cannot do it Regardless of the 4k regardless of all the impressive visuals and all the crazy dual-sense controller things Guess what none of that's available to you when you're in your car typically unless you're like Jerry rigged your car to run it none of that's typically capable when you're on a Train or on a plane like this stuff just isn't possible In those portable settings on breaks at work. You probably don't get a chance to come home Maybe you do during COVID because you work at home But before that you probably didn't get a chance to come home and game for a half hour I mean you have to drive to home you have to drive back or the public transit there in a bag that alone takes up Probably most of your break. So it's very interesting to see Where switch has become this viable platform for third parties But then we still don't have all third-party games because there's not enough power You look at Nintendo's history now when we look at just the history of you know Xbox of PlayStation Be like oh look they did this but Nintendo hasn't go all the way back to the Game Boy color That's the first time Nintendo released quote-unquote a more powerful platform or shall we say a platform that has new Features that don't exist on the prior platforms Game Boy Game Boy Advance Sorry Game Boy Game Boy Pocket Game Boy Advance is a whole new generation. So Game Boy Game Boy Pocket those were basically the same system One was just shrunk down. It's kind of like the switch versus the switch light Although technically one docks or the TV one doesn't but portably they're pretty much the same platform ones just smaller Okay, that's like comparing the Game Boy in the Game Boy pocket But then the Game Boy color came out the Game Boy color not have exclusive games Of course it did it had a lot of exclusive games even from Nintendo Yeah, that was the thing that happened Factually in the same generation of system some people consider Game Boy color a next generation Game Boy But it wasn't Nintendo counts Game Boy color sales in with the rest. It was just a mid-gen upgrade It was the upgrade before people were doing these upgrades regularly Then Sega started doing it and then got a little crazy with it And then kind of sank their own company on the console space. That's a whole other story, but it happens All right now look at Nintendo when the next time they did it again Well, you had the Game Boy Advance then you had the Game Boy SP SP again added a new feature But the new feature was a backlit screen. It didn't require the games to do anything special So it didn't get exclusive games because I mean the feature it added had nothing to do with game development and having to add Extra features in it's just look now you could see your game in the dark good Then we get up to well the DS right the big replacement for the Game Boy Advance DS they released the DSi there were exclusive games on the DSi not many Not many I think it was less than a dozen, but there were exclusive games on the DSi All right, whatever as a DSi. No one cares about that. That was so long ago. Fine. What about the 3ds? Sure, we got you know the 2ds which is like the switch light took away a key feature of the 3ds But you could still play all the same games. Okay, but what about the new 3ds? Which is let's be honest a more likely name for the switch pro then then the switch pro new Nintendo switch new 3ds new Super's Lucky Tale new Super Mario Brothers like You see it's probably gonna be called the new Nintendo switch. Let's just be honest, but setting the side naming conventions What's interesting here is looking at this from the perspective of the new 3ds had exclusive games from Nintendo's You know big Chronicles port exclusive to that could not be played on the original 3ds. Oh, but what about other games? What do you mean other games? You mean like Minecraft? Minecraft is one of the the biggest if not the most popular biggest game ever created only available on new 2ds and new 3ds Not 2ds not 3ds new 2ds new 3ds exclusive In terms of that platform could not be played on the prior gen or the prior The older versions of the system couldn't do it Even games that came out on the new 3ds that were also in the old 3ds Almost felt like they shouldn't even been on the old 3ds. I'll give you an example high rule warriors legends That's right that game that got ported with extra content from the Wii U added Lincoln all this jazz right controversy with the Zelda community guess what that game ran Beautifully in the new 3ds on the og 3ds single digit frames I'm sorry the game shouldn't exist on that if you're someone who disagrees with that and love the game on the original 3ds My power to you. I can't handle that game On that platform. I needed a new 3ds. I already had a new 3ds But I still had a og 3ds at the time that game was what made me get rid of my og 3ds that the realization that hey You know, maybe we shouldn't be holding back games for the 3ds anymore plus a new 3ds became the best seller of that generation So and maybe Nintendo hopes that as well if you sold, you know 80 a hundred million You know of these current switches, maybe they want to sell a hundred million of switch pros I have no idea all I know is that a Nintendo is doing it and Whether you like it or not We're getting an upgraded switch and the reason that it's a positive that we are gonna have exclusives isn't because the exclusives exist It's because if you've been looking for a switch that has better frame rate switch It does better resolution a switch that gives you better visuals You need a platform that's going to end up having some exclusive games on it The third parties bare minimum feel is worth giving exclusives to that they don't think they can make it run In an acceptable way on the original switch they need extra power because that means this switch does have extra power There is a beefier hardware under if you ever want to like so you say oh you don't have any proof There's beef your heart that 4k output could just literally be Hulu and YouTube and that 4k output could already be done on the Tegra X1. You're right. You're right. You're not wrong. You're right but To have third-party exclusive games, especially if you want to get games from PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X You're gonna need beef your hardware and the feather nature here is saying they exist He knows of at least one, but there's probably many more Guess what we're getting more powerful hardware. Whether you like it or not now I'm gonna be getting a switch pro day one or try to scalpers are gonna make it hard And that's gonna be an issue. It was an issue with switch last year for a period of time Scalpers were you know getting two three two to three hundred extra dollars first switch on eBay at a time when it was really hard to get a Switch even a switch light. It was really hard for a couple months there. I got really dicey But hey, you know what it is what it is. This is the world we live in I don't think technology should stop moving forward because of the pandemic because things are hard to get sometimes because the chip Sortages we shouldn't just put the world on pause Because you can't get your PlayStation 5 or your series X right now or your GPU for your Computer or a CPU can't even build the PC right now for an affordable price The world shouldn't stop because you can't get the product you want right at the moment, right? It would be like saying oh, I really want to get this car this new Honda or whatever It's or Tesla or whatever is popular these days and it's completely sold out So they should stop making the next version. It should stop improving. No We should just exercise some patience and get things when we can Most people aren't going to be able to afford a brand new system right at launch Anyways, you talk about the PlayStation 5 this is a majority of consumers interested and don't have the money right off the bat regardless Same thing for switch pro and if you already own a switch It's not like there's gonna be so many exclusives you're gonna feel like I need to upgrade But I am going to tell you right now I'm pretty excited at the prospect that potentially Breath of the Wild 2 is 60 FPS Potentially old updates could exist for the original Breath of the Wild to get native 1080p when docked with 60 FPS I'm excited about the prospects of what a switch pro can mean for old games and new games And yeah, I'll still have my old switch as well Well, I've been using it as much once I have the switch pro probably not a problem I like my kids play with it now I'll use the pro version but because they are not gonna care as much about the graphic updates as I you know When I was a kid I didn't care as much about it as much as we ward on the playground over 8 bit 16 bit 32 like in the end None of us really knew what the hell we were talking about Anyways folks, I'm no dinner over just from the centerprime. Let me know you think what this in the comments below Hey, it's okay if you're upset by this and okra if you disagree with me I'm not here to tell you that your opinion is wrong and your personal desires are wrong. They're not But mine's not either So maybe if we could just all respect each other. We'd all get along much better. Hi folks I'm a dinner over dance from the centerprime if you got it this far in the video What the hell you doing like and subscribe? It's a long video and I'll catch you in the next one You
