Things just keep getting more exciting when it 
comes to the Nintendo Switch 2 and RPGs that   could hit the system we’ve got a bunch of awesome 
content to go over this one I’m super hyped about   guys so let’s go ahead and jump right into the 
first topic here and this is something that’s   really good for the future of the Nintendo Switch 
2 in the short and long term when it comes to   third-party developers in a recent Borderlands 
4 creator voice video posted on the official   Nintendo of America YouTube channel Mr randy 
Pitchford himself talked about the Nintendo Switch   2 and yes he’s a little bit eccentric and kind of 
crazy and maybe exaggerates things just a bit and   he’s kind of a character in his own self but at 
the same time he’s confirmed a number of different   things in his opinion about what’s happening with 
the Nintendo Switch 2 Power talking about how and   I’m paraphrasing here it’s a very powerful machine 
bleeding edge of tech but the biggest thing that   he said from this video was that usually they port 
the games over to a Nintendo platform he’s talking   about Borderlands 2 Borderlands the Pre-Sequel 
the games that came to Nintendo Switch one or   even other platforms that they’ve worked on in the 
past it’s a port studio it’s something else that’s   getting it done but this time they’re actually 
creating Borderlands 4 for the Nintendo Switch 2   it’s not a port from something else which usually 
with ports they’re not going to be good as games   that are created while the game is in development 
sometimes you can have some awesome stuff done   don’t get me wrong but it’s always better to have 
it done as the game is being made and they’re not   using a port studio for it they’re creating it 
themselves which is 100% different from what we   saw on the Nintendo Switch One where many big 
developers just got port studios to make their   games for them often at much decreased quality 
overall now this is very good like I said for   the short and long-term future because third party 
developers are seeing it as a viable machine and   good enough to get the job done to bring over 
their games now what’s presumably shown in this   video is actual footage of Borderlands 4 running 
on the Nintendo Switch 2 and if that’s the case   it is looking very good now what we’ve seen so 
far with Nintendo Switch 2 is that Nintendo’s   actually taking the Switch 2 versions of games 
and making sure people are seeing those they’re   not taking PlayStation or Xbox or PC because you 
can do direct comparison so far and see okay there   might have been a little bit different there from 
that trailer from this other footage we saw that   with Cyberpunk we’ve seen it with Split Fiction 
and other games final Fantasy 7 remake integrade   for example as well so what we’re seeing is that 
Nintendo is going into this saying “Hey look these   are how the games are going to look this is what 
we’re doing here with this system.” Yes it’s not   as powerful as PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X but 
with the newer more efficient architecture DLSS   and of course coming off the back of the Nintendo 
Switch One a massive sales success you’re seeing   developers put their best foot forward for the 
Nintendo Switch 2 from what we’ve seen so far   and if this system takes off and sells you can bet 
we’re going to see more developers actually try   with their in-house teams and get their games 
up and going on the Nintendo Switch 2 these   creator voice videos have been fantastic because 
it gives us an idea of what they’re thinking and   what they’re doing for these games and you’re 
seeing the sheer difference compared to the   Nintendo Switch One whereas this series couldn’t 
even exist because there was no major third-party   developers that had anything at the launch or 
even within the first number of months for the   Nintendo Switch 2 outside of Mario Plus Rabids i 
mean there was a couple double A support Disgaya   there was some other stuff but there really 
wasn’t a ton so that is the main difference   here and once again a very good thing that Mr 
randy Pitchford had to say about them creating   the game for the system and not porting it so 
very good as well but what’s also very good is   all the new users that are going to create their 
subscriptions to this channel so make sure you hit   that subscribe button hit that like button and 
click that notification bell to get my vids as   soon as they drop as we’ve got a bunch of great 
Nintendo Switch 2 content coming up now let’s get   into another incredible experience that I’ve been 
playing myself on PlayStation 5 Pro and this game   absolutely needs and should come to the Nintendo 
Switch 2 and that is Clare Obscure: Expedition 33   many people’s frontr runner for game of the year 
2025 mine included now in a recent interview the   CEO of Samfall Interactive Mr g brochi seems 
intrigued by the possibility of a Nintendo   Switch 2 version of Clare Obscure Expedition 
33 but the thing about this based off of what   I heard and what I heard someone translate it to 
I think there might be a little bit of I would   say innuendo or a little bit more oomph to what 
the message originally says and I’ll talk about   why I think that that’s just speculation but I’ll 
talk about why I think that after I’m done reading   what was said here in this interview on the Mr mv 
channel now when asked about the Nintendo Switch   2 here is what he had to say quote “Well at this 
point considering the success of the game it kind   of changes everything.” So clearly it’s too 
early to say but we’re kind of in a situation   where dot dot dot let’s say there are a lot of 
opportunities showing up way too many at once   and we’re figuring out what we’ll go for and what 
we won’t but yeah it’s definitely something that   could be interesting so that right there that 
statement and if you hear it live he’s speaking   French so you can’t get it completely in terms 
of things but that statement there especially   with the dot dot dot makes me think there is a 
dot dot dot Nintendo representative Nintendo’s   third-party guy that’s already been talking or 
contacted them about Expedition 33 coming over   to Nintendo Switch 2 this game like I made in a 
video a little bit ago would be perfect for the   system the HD Rumble 2 that would be great for the 
haptics that the PS5 version has you look at the   characters you look at even the plot people that 
play Xenolade people that play Fire Emblem if you   like Paper Mario these are all multi-millionelling 
RPGs on the Nintendo Switch platform on Nintendo   platforms i have no question that if Clare Obscure 
Expedition 33 came to the Nintendo Switch 2 it   could be a million seller just on that platform 
alone when it’s all said and done absolutely i   can think that this is the perfect type of game 
to bring over and you bet Nintendo’s big third   party guy that they actually got from PlayStation 
is already on the case here and that’s why he was   being very I would say precise and actually had to 
stop just a little bit in his warning that’s why   I said there’s a little bit more innuendo there 
he’s saying “Hey look the game’s selling well we   have a lot of opportunities that we wouldn’t 
have if we didn’t sell this.” Well and yeah   we’ll see what happens not going to say there’s 
something but yeah it’ll be interesting you know   that is absolutely leading on to believe that now 
here’s another thing guys remember this game is on   Game Pass they got their Game Pass bag and that’s 
awesome and everything but still effectively when   it comes to consoles for purchase at least it’s 
only on one platform it’s not on the PlayStation   4 it’s only on PlayStation 5 now there is PC and 
people are buying it on there i’m not saying PC   doesn’t count because obviously it does but what 
I’m saying is that there is an extra alley for   revenue in the console market add in the Nintendo 
Switch 2 with a decent install base as well if   this is announced maybe at the end of the year or 
next year and it launches then I think that there   will be enough people on the system that’ll be 
excited and looking forward to a great JRPG style   of game with a really cool battle system with the 
parry mechanic and dodge and the characters and   the story if you love Xenolade and kind of the 
stuff that happens in that game especially Zeno   3 this is going to be right up your alley overall 
so absolutely i think Clare Obscure Expedition 33   is happening on the Nintendo Switch 2 i think 
he’s kind of leading to believe that but he   didn’t want to say anything but yeah I’m pretty 
sure Nintendo’s people are already on it and yes   this game is awesome and absolutely worth it 
if it does come over to the Nintendo Switch 2   so I think that’s going to happen now let’s talk 
about another game that I think that’s going to   happen with the Nintendo Switch 2 and essentially 
once again kind of teasing things is Dragon Quest   12 now in a recent talk at the Comic-Con Napolei 
franchise creator Yuji Hodi finally talked about   this game a little bit more with Game Reactor 
talking about how hard the team is working quote   “Yes indeed i can’t say anything i apologize 
i am making it putting lots of work into it   i can only say that the next work will be great 
too working really hard please look forward to it   is the only thing I can say now he also appeared 
to be hinting towards the Nintendo Switch 2 as a   console that it could come to he said quote “Yes 
I believe it could be compatible with Switch 2 as   well.” So he’s definitely walking on the eggshells 
there i firmly believe this if you want my opinion   on what’s happening with Dragon Quest one the 
game is going to be stacked and packed full of big   content they are taking this development from a 
game that was a PlayStation 4 game now to a fully   featured bigger PlayStation 5 Xbox series Nintendo 
Switch 2 PC type of game they are putting in new   mechanics new systems new style of story new type 
of things and are also preparing for a worldwide   release usually Dragon Quest games launch in Japan 
first when it comes to the main ones this one I   think is going to be a worldwide launch dragon 
Quest 11 sold a lot of copies overall so I fully   expect them to embrace the worldwide launch for 
this game so that’s going to take time it’s going   to take a ton of effort and it’s going to take 
people working as hard as possible and that’s all   Mr yuji can say now when it comes to the Nintendo 
Switch 2 this is the easiest duh that it really   kind of has to come to the Nintendo Switch 2 if 
you look at the demographics and what’s happening   Dragon Quest is always massive in Japan it’s 
one of the biggest things it’s like a holiday   there with the Nintendo Switch 2 that system is 
going to be the dominant system when it comes to   sales based off of what we’re seeing what we saw 
really with the Nintendo Switch One and what we’re   seeing even not at this point the PlayStation 5 is 
not really a factor there and the Xbox Series is   non-existent at this point pc is rising but it’s 
still nowhere near as popular as what’s happening   with the Nintendo Switch when it comes to the 
core console base and what people are playing   there outside of smartphones and all of that so 
the Nintendo Switch 2 is going to instantly start   off and we saw what happened with the My Nintendo 
request 2.2 million there are lotteryies that a   lot of these stores are having just to give the 
most dedicated customers the first chance because   the demand for the Nintendo Switch 2 is so high 
in Japan it’s completely outstripping probably   the supply that will be there which there should 
be a million plus systems or so there so this is   probably going to be the biggest console launch 
of all time in Japan or very close to that record   the PlayStation 2 has so with all of that being 
said and what they’ve sold with Dragon Quest on   Nintendo platforms it absolutely has to be ready 
for the Nintendo Switch 2 so I do think that’s   going to happen i think the reveal is going to be 
at a Nintendo Direct and I think that it’s going   to end up being a multi-platform game overall but 
the first reveal will be at the Nintendo Switch 2   Direct at some point maybe that’s this year maybe 
that’s next year i’m not really sure but I fully   expect that to be a thing so that is going to be 
really exciting as well when we finally see that   game all right guys got the last topic here it 
has been a packed RPG video and we’re going to   go a little bit more on Hogwarts Legacy for the 
Nintendo Switch 2 now we did find out recently I   made a video about it make sure you check that out 
link in the description to my previous one where   I talked about the upgrade path that’s going to 
be available for Hogwarts Legacy on the Nintendo   Switch 2 got an update on that plus footage that 
you guys are seeing showing off the Nintendo   Switch One version versus the Nintendo Switch 2 
version of this game and there is no comparison   here the Switch 2 absolutely blows it out of the 
water and gets it closer to the PlayStation and   Xbox versions of this game the upgrade path is $10 
and it actually works even physical if you have   the physical Switch One version you can get that 
go to the pre-order access thingy and that will   essentially get you the update there’s directions 
online as well to get that or if you buy the game   on sale it’s on sale for $17 right now you can 
just add $10 to that for the upgrade path and   it’s a $27 28 game so there’s plenty of ways to 
get it on the cheap and play it on the Nintendo   Switch 2 it’s a good game and I think that the 
portable nature of the Switch 2 for an RPG like   this game that has a ton of side quests and a 
lot of content people can spend upwards of 70   80 to 100 hours in this game this would be perfect 
for Nintendo Switch 2 i waited to play it didn’t   want to play it on Switch One a bit crusty as you 
guys can see so I waited for the Switch 2 to see   if I can get it and I think that at this price 
it becomes a no-brainer for me but some of the   updates that they talked about recently Avalanche 
and Warner Bros put out a little information on   the game here with the Nintendo Switch 2 version 
and essentially it’s going to have mouse support   improved audio load times and controls have been 
updated for the Nintendo Switch 2 version of the   game so it’s going to be more responsive it’s 
obviously going to look better it’s going to load   faster there’s going to be seamless transitions 
into the main areas whereas before there used   to be loading so yeah that is a huge difference 
overall so I’m definitely going to be picking up   the Nintendo Switch 2 version of this game and 
good on them actually offering an upgrade path   cuz some developers are not from Nintendo Switch 
one to Nintendo Switch 2 so that’s definitely a   good thing overall so what do you guys think about 
all the different topics that we discussed here   i loved it because there was so much RPG news 
so much incredible exciting Nintendo Switch 2   information to go over as we get closer and closer 
to the launch let me know what you think in the   comment section below all right guys that wraps
