 Hey everyone, welcome back to Nintendo Prime, and we got a nice big juicy rumor for you today. It kind of comes from this person named Sharon on Twitter. However, technically she's not the original source. It does come from gaming leaks, and gaming leaks, and the gaming leaks Reddit is what I'm trying to say. But unfortunately the person who posted it appears to have had his post deleted by the moderators or whatever the case might be. I have no idea what's going on and that I did some digging into it. But Sharon only seems to share things that she thinks are reasonably viable. Emily Rogers follows her. So whatever, we're gonna talk about this stuff because it's really, really interesting and really, really huge, including something called the Super Switch, which I don't really know that that's a finalized name, but I do think it's at least worth paying a little bit of attention to and having to talk about it today. Now to remind you, before we get into anything, we are giving away two copies of Mario Striker's Battle League. This is actually the kickoff giveaway for our Prime Gaming Festival. We will be giving away thousands of dollars worth of gaming gear, accessories, consoles, games. It's going to be awesome. We're gonna be live reacting to everything happening at Summer's Game Fest, the Tribeca Festival, PC Gaming Show, Xbox Bethesda, maybe a Nintendo Direct if it comes around, Ubisoft, et cetera. We're gonna be all over live reacting, providing live entertainment as well as all of those giveaways. So I really hope that you guys choose to participate in the current giveaway, which will be announced, the winners will be announced June 9th, 9am during Prime Gaming Fest. That being said, hey everyone, let's get into the news, shall we? So as you see here, we got some tweets by Sharon yesterday here and she said, so the latest Nintendo Switch rumor. And again, this is her just getting this information as you'll see down here. It says, Super Nintendo Switch next year, alongside Breath of the Wild 2. Now this has been a widely speculated thing for some time, a sort of Super Switch, a Switch Pro, a next generation Switch launching alongside Breath of the Wild 2. This isn't a new concept, but this is, you know, I guess the first time I've seen a real rumor built around it. It's gonna have 4K graphics, themes, and street pass. And street pass is a very interesting one. We'll talk about that later. Wind Waker and Tobias, if you look at it down here, it's actually spelled right, Twilight Princess. She just had a flub on Twitter. You can't edit tweets on Twitter, unfortunately. So Wind Waker and Twilight Princess announcement this summer for release in the fall slash winter, which again, there have been a couple rumors about that already. Game Boy and Game Boy Advance announcement this summer. Again, we have prior rumors that sort of back this up. Breath of the Wild Bundle Switch with all DLC included for Christmas. Now, that would be cool. I'm ready to have something beyond the Mario Kart 8, you know, bundle. Then some hit games like Smash Brothers will get a 4K upscale. And then the Nintendo Selects line returns this year. And there she is, correct me. And then here she is, showing the original source of this being and gaming leaks and rumors. Retter from Jump Yur. And yeah, there's not really anything in here that isn't what she said. She actually summarized this better. And apparently Street Pass, they wanted to make available in 2017, but they had some performance issues or problems. Street Pass is kind of an interesting thing to bring back. I kind of like that back on the 3DS. So that's obviously really, really neat to think about. So when I look at these old rumors, one obviously take them with a truckload of salt. Again, these, you know, like any other rumor out there, regardless of who it comes from, whether it's Emily Rogers or Sam, it's Hunter or Sharon here, or Gaming Leaks and Rumors Reddit or Jeff Grubb always take everything that we put out there. If you see the, if you see me even use the word rumor in the video, you know that you need to be skeptical. That doesn't mean it's not fun to think about and talk about and see what happens. The last rumor that we actually talked about was the Nindie Direct from Emily Rogers. We talked about it on Prime News yesterday and lo and behold, that was actually announced today and is happening tomorrow. We're gonna be live from reacting to it. So people wonder why do you cover these rumors and leaks? Not only because they're fun to speculate and fun to talk about, because sometimes they actually come true. And when they come true, it's quite magical. So yeah, by the way, we do have another Prime News episode coming later today. I know I wanted them out by noon, but because I was up so late last night doing the report on the Nintendo's financials, you know, I ended up just kind of sleeping through the morning hours. So we will get a Prime News out today. It's gonna be this evening. In fact, do you guys prefer end of day Prime News or do you guys prefer a beginning of day Prime News? I feel like there's a lot of other people that do news summaries like in the morning, but not very many that does like a nice recap at the end of day. So let me know if that is something you're interested in because maybe that's something that I could be aiming for and I could do other videos in the morning and then focus on Prime News, you know, getting that out by like, I don't know, six o'clock or something like that. Anyways, you guys let me know about that. Speaking of these rumors, I do think it's a bit strange to call it the Super Nintendo Switch. I know some people actually really, really like the name Super Switch and I get it. It's a play on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. I just don't know that Nintendo is gonna go back to that branding. If you look at Nintendo's branding lately, which I understand most of this was under Satura Owada, you know, they've used the Switch Lite, you know, the Lite branding, LITE carrying that over from the DS and 3DS. We haven't seen a new yet, a new Nintendo Switch. I think would probably, unfortunately, as much as I hate the new branding, they'll likely route Nintendo would go with this. I obviously would like to see them use numbers if it's a next generation. Like, I'm tired of Nintendo being afraid of numbers. You can call it Nintendo Switch too and it's literally not confusing at all and is a self-advertisement that this is the next Switch. I don't know what Nintendo's adversity to using numbers are, but they use it in some of their games once in a while. So why can't we use it, you know, for a system? I don't know, Nintendo just doesn't do that. So I don't expect it to be called Nintendo Switch too. I just hope whatever name they do choose for the next generation makes sense because Switch was such a brilliant name, just like Wii was a brilliant name. DS, you know, was a brilliant name to represent dual screens. I think Nintendo gets brilliant names sometimes, but they don't always follow it up with the most brilliant names. Wii U, 3DS, like I would like to see them come up with a better name, but hey, you know what? Super Switch is just fine. Now the rest of this stuff seems pretty safe. Street Pass is the one that's, man, the ones the last time you even thought about Street Pass. I haven't thought about Street Pass in years. So it's kind of interesting to see that if they would even want to bring something like that back, I do think that Street Pass does create a kind of community around it, but Street Pass can't really exist unless you're going to also bring back some mini games or something built around it, which maybe they're going to. Winmaker and Twilight Princess announced this summer coming out later this year in the fall. I think a lot of people are starting to get that expectation because Nintendo does do something Zelda every year, and with Breath of the Wild pushed to 2023, we currently have no new Zelda this year. Now there could be DLC, of course, for Hyrule Warriors, Age of Calamity or something like that, but I do think that we're going to see something this year and Twilight Princess and Winmaker HD, they existed on Wii U, they haven't come over. We've gotten almost everything from Wii U, kind of makes some sense to bring one, if not both of those games over. I know a lot of us are hoping for that $60 double pack, but I don't know, Nintendo values their games so high, it's hard to imagine them packing both together for 60, especially after they discovered sort of HD last year for 60 on its own, but you know, we'll see what Nintendo decides to do. And then I look at the rest, you know, Game Boy, Game Boy Advance announced that again, we've had basically the fact that Game Boy and Game Boy Advance games were being worked on for Nintendo Switch Online is all but confirmed at this point. We had that massive leak, and it seemed to really confirm that this stuff was at least being worked on as late as I think spring of 2021, was kind of where we left it at, hey, the last time these files were touched were at least around then. So Nintendo at least thought about bringing Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, Game Boy Color to Nintendo Switch Online, whether or not that ever comes through fruition publicly, I don't know, but there is some legitimate information backing that up. So, you know, that's kind of piggybacking on a rumor that already exists, I would say. But the Breath of the Wild bundle for Christmas, that's one that I think would be huge. I mean, this game is already almost at 30 million sales on Switch alone. They bundle it in for the holidays. I think this might actually be a very smart move with Breath of the Wild 2 coming up, but they're gonna start marketing, you know, hey, Link's next great adventure is on the way, but before we get there, why don't you guys check out our Christmas bundle for Link's current adventure, you know, the prequel to Breath of the Wild 2. I think that that could actually be a brilliant sales pitch. Obviously, you know, worded a bit better than that in the commercials, but I think that that would be a really brilliant move by the Nintendo, which by the way, I don't think they're gonna get rid of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe bundle. I think this is just a bundle that could run alongside it. Get Breath of the Wild, all the DLC bundle it in with Switch. You know, Switch all that for 350 bucks and sell it this holiday, why not? I think that that's actually a really, really sweet thing Nintendo could do. And yeah, I think it would actually boost sales of Zelda and Switch heading into Breath of the Wild 2. So, remind everyone, hey, remember this like game that has won the most game of the year awards of all time? Yeah, we're bundling it in right before we're about to launch the new one. So why don't you get this and then buy the new one, you know, coming up this spring? I don't know, just saying. It feels like a really good marketing opportunity. So regardless of the rumor, I really like this idea. So I hope it happens. Other games getting 4K upscales, that's not really a surprise. And whenever I see 4K graphics, I think 4K upscaling. I never think 4K, native 4K, because let's be honest, the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 struggle with native 4K. A lot of the 4K you see, oh, but I'm playing my Spider-Man, Miles Morales and 4K. All right, let's hold up a second. They're using an upscaling technique to hit 4K. It's not native. And that's what people kind of don't get because of all the marketing out there. The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X technically are not powerful enough to run modern AAA games at 4K. You need almost a 3090 or 3080, 3080 Ti which are extremely expensive graphics cards. I think a 6900 XT can do it with some games. But you need extremely expensive GPUs to get that. And PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series are not that. So yeah, you're getting 4K, but you're getting it in the upscaled way, which by the way, there's nothing wrong with that. And that's how Switch would do it. It'd be more like you're getting 1080p visuals upscaled to 4K. So there is some additional power, but it's upscaled to 4K to make it look crisp on a 4K television. So I don't know. You guys, let me know what you think about this. This is obviously a really, really interesting rumor that we're having a lot of fun with. And I wanna know if you think that this is likely, unlikely what you think. Obviously, Sharon is somebody who we've actually covered for a little bit. She's had a few things come true, but again, she's not the source of these rumors. She actually does a lot of reports on a lot of rumors around the DC universe. So like The Flash and Batman and all that. She seems to be a big fan of that. Anyways, you guys are shooting in and I'll catch you in the next video.
