Name the Switch successor: what should Nintendo call its new console?

switch2.jpg

Nintendo has officially announced that a successor to the beloved Switch console is on the horizon. As we eagerly anticipate what innovations this new device will bring, there's one fun piece of the puzzle left undecided: its name.

The name of a console is more than just a label; it's the first impression, a brand identity, and often, a crucial element in its success or failure. Think back to the Nintendo Wii, which despite its unusual name, revolutionized gaming with its motion controls and family-friendly appeal. On the flip side, we have the Wii U, whose name caused quite a bit of confusion and didn't resonate as well with the audience.

This is where you come in! Nintendo has always been about innovation and community, and what better way to honor that spirit than by inviting you, the fans, to help name the next generation console? Whether you think it should be something classic like the "Switch 2" or something more creative like "Super Switch Ultra Deluxe" we want to hear your most creative and catchy ideas. Don't hold back—post your naming ideas in the comments below. Feel free to upvote the names you love, and why not add your twist to someone else’s suggestion?

I'm still in the Super Switch camp, but here's some other ideas I had:

Nintendo Switch-UP
≡NEW≡ Nintendo Switch
Nintendo Switch Plus
Nintendo Switch X

The Super Take Down.

All these years of screwing little guys for daring to share their creativity with the world has actually been one massive advertising campaign.

The EULA will state that by touching the console, you will have breached the EULA.

Just like Apple:
Nintendo Switch (2024)

Or something like...
Nintendo Switch - MSE (More Stability Edition)

The Smart name would be 'Switch 2', simple, clean and informative without any effort.

But all the people who want Nintendo to suffer and completely die should be hoping for a "Wii U" scenario where people think it's just an add-on, so for those I'd go with the 'Switch Attach' rumour from a while ago.

    @BigOnYa well, starting with, idk which emulator should i use for switch, i got a gtx 1650, do you know which one would it better for my pc?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    The switch emulators on pc rely on your CPU mostly, and they only use a single core, so GPU not as important as a good CPU. I don't use switch emulator, but many here do, and willing to help.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv2 do you want to chime in, don't you use yuzu or ryujinx? Which do you prefer?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Morganna I'd say try them both, and see which work better for your setup, good luck, and have fun!
  • Morganna @ Morganna:
