Talk:Nintendo Switch 2

Question

Is it worth it to mention that the switch 2 pre orders will be delayed in the USA due to events or is it unworthy due to politics? WoomyWa (talk) 16:10, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

I feel like we should say that it is delayed, but not say why as to avoid bringing up the topic. Thanks for the notice, and Stay Fresh! NewSquidbeakSplatoon (talk) 16:48, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

Thank you :) same to you as well. WoomyWa (talk) 17:15, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

If it's a fact it's due to tariffs, why shouldn't we mention it? There is no policy saying we shouldn't. Olivia (talk) 18:36, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

Hrmm… well if there’s no rule against it… I don’t see why not, but sometimes it’s better to… avoid certain topics. Yknow, like those unspoken rules we all follow but don’t acknowledge. Things like tarrifs don’t really have much room on a splatoon wiki. NewSquidbeakSplatoon (talk) 20:52, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

We wouldn't want to exclude this sort of information on a perceived political basis, but at this point in time it's something that's not especially relevant to our coverage. It's unclear what precise ramifications if any this news will have beyond the delay of the preorder period (in the United States only, at that), and that detail by itself is something we wouldn't particularly want to expand upon in detail at this time.

I'm of the belief that it would be more prudent to wait and see if there are further effects of note before we would include any details about this topic. Driftin Soul [Talk!] 00:21, 5 April 2025 (UTC)

I can agree with that, I side with Soul. NewSquidbeakSplatoon (talk) 13:13, 5 April 2025 (UTC)

I have a question

Did Nintendo switch 2 games works on Nintendo switch 1

I am a superior fan of splatoon games and I dont know.

Should I buy Nintendo switch 2? Jerzi (talk) 08:16, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

Using Switch 2 games on the first Switch is a technical impossibility.

You should also note that talk pages are not intended to discuss the topic the page covers, only the page itself. See INK:TALK. Join the Discord server if you want to do casual discussions. Olivia (talk) 08:53, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

Ok thx Jerzi (talk) 07:22, 18 June 2025 (UTC)

Question in regards to S3/S2 Backwards Compatability

Since there was a section on Nintendo's website noted that every Switch 1 game besides Labo and a couple compatibility issues with the Switch 2 Joy-Cons, none of which related to Splatoon, is it safe to rewrite the backwards compatibility section to put that Splatoon 2 is confirmed for the Switch 2 as well? The mariowiki used this as a source to say that every game in that series was Backwards Compatible so I don't see why not. HalloweenPeachy (talk) 19:57, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

I am on the page, and it doesn't seem like any Nintendo games are entirely incompatible with the Switch 2 except Labo VR and Labo VR only. Will add with source. Olivia (talk) 13:55, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
