The Super Nintendo Entertainment Switch

How is that tradition? It happened one time. Successor name suffixes and prefixes used: super, color, advance, mini, 64, i, 3, new, u. It could be anything.

Edit: ah no, there was also super game boy, I guess that's the only one they repeated. But that was specifically for super NES compatibility.

Do "i", "mini" and "new" really count as new consoles? i and new were just upgrades to the same console, I believe, and I'm not sure what "Mini" was even for..

Uh, there was a GameBoy Micro, but that's the closest that comes to mind.

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 6 months ago

Oops yes I meant the micro, not mini

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 months ago

I mean, they were direct successors. I imagine the next console won't be something completely different than the switch, so I imagine I will be some sort of switch 2.

[-] otp@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

None of those were direct successors, though

[-] onlooker@lemmy.ml 10 points 6 months ago

How about the Swiitch? You get the roman numeral 2 in there and the name's similar enough to the original Switch, so customers will be confused as to whether this is a new console or an iteration of the current one. Just like the Wii U!

Super Switchtendo

It's an Nvidia chip, so Switch Super.

Who am I kidding, if they followed Nvidia it'd be Switch AI.

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Super Switch 4064 Ti Super Ti (one is pronounced T-I, the other is "tie")

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 5 points 6 months ago

Or Ultra Switch, as a throwback to the 64's name before it was officially announced, which also means lots of Ultra games.

I don’t think they’re in a hurry to repeat the WiiU

[-] ech@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago
