Hey! Are you saying I'm not normal! How could you throw such a passive insult my way. I apologised Mr Cool.

After replaying the audio, I've concluded that my initial reaction was the product of a trifecta of calamities: exhaustion, the wrath of an irritable gremlin residing in my brain, and the mischievous act of only partially engaging with reality. Thus, I hereby revoke my previous stance.
Give me Sackboy or give me sack, boy!

Fwiw Gene I didn't read it that way myself

Munching up with Brad! Makes my Thursday that much more bearable.

i definitely don’t mean to come off that way! apologies to matty if that rubs him wrong
Gene Park

Why was Gene knocking Matty? Nobody cheered for him getting the interview with Todd. They cheered for him nailing it!
Give me Sackboy or give me sack, boy!

The Marie Kondo comment had me busting out laughing 🤣

I agree with Brad that I’d like to see some distinguishing gimmick with Switch 2. The Switch is kind of a plain experience and Nintendo left some cool concepts behind. Streetpass was a fan favorite feature with 3DS and should come back! Also, with Nintendo removing social media sharing, it’d be cool to see them try Miiverse again in some form. An online social space for Nintendo enthusiasts? Sign me up.

It hasn't been confirmed, though it seems to be strongly implied. Given there's no prescedent for it to be otherwise (Wii U took physical wii, 3DS took physical DS, DS took GBA and GB, GBA took GB, GBC took GB) I wouldn't sweat it too much.
As a fella with a large physical switch collection myself, I understand the concern though.

Every time I think Gene can't get any more insufferable, he levels up. -Everybody is always so impressed, but I just casually have coffee with the Clintons every morning. Also, telling people what culture they should or shouldn't be is very much a modern leftist theme. Just look at what they say to any black person who voted for Trump.

The new Switch console confirmed to be backwards compatible. But did they confirm that it will take OG Switch cartridges? As someone with 150 plus physical Switch games, I’ll be absolutely devastated if I can’t use them on the next console.
