What Features Do You Want for the Nintendo Switch 2?

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a direct follow-up to the Switch: bigger, better, and certainly more powerful. While some details are scarce for now, there are some Nintendo Switch 2 features and games the upcoming console needs. Here is what our staff has to say about the Switch 2 features we need at launch and beyond. Image via Nintendo Siliconera Speaks Up: Nintendo Switch 2 Features and Games We Want I'm pretty sure the Switch 2 is going to be as big as the Switch is (maybe even bigger), which means it won't exactly be the pocket-sized handheld console that the 3DS or the PSP were. However, I'd still love if it had a Streetpass or Spotpass-like function. It was always such a delight going outside, and then looking at all the people I passed during a break. There was a simple sense of community in knowing that there were so many other people in the city who share the same hobby, or maybe even played the same game I did. -- Stephanie I want a new Fire Emblem game on the Switch 2. More specifically, a new old entry in the series. There have been entirely too many Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War teases over the years, and it is time for a modern rerelease or remake of it! -- Jenni For me, other than the crucial features like backwards compatibility with Switch, I NEED a huge expansion for Nintendo Switch Online. Where are my classic Pokemon games? Let me play Pokemon Emerald again on the Switch 2! Also, I think it is finally time for the triumphant return of menu themes in true fashion. Give me all the themes for every major Nintendo series and even some third-party ones. For example, I’d love to be able to have a blue classic Final Fantasy menu on my Switch 2. -- Cody The Nintendo Switch 2 releases sometime in 2025.
