After the wii u fiasco they made a good name again and just puting a 2 after switch makes clear everything that was not clear for many people with wii u.

on the one hand, switch 2 is boring and lame

on the other hand, there's maybe a 50% possibility that if they don't go with something as obvious and clear as switch 2 they'll come up with something incredibly stupid that hurts their sales

Super for a midgen upgrades, numerals for next gen. Switch, Super Switch, Switch 2, Super Switch 2, etc. At least until it reaches Super Switch God.

Im sure it'll be called Switch+ or Switch "Letter" or something. God I hope they don't go with the 90's cheese of "Super" or the bonkers idea that was "New".

YES.

OR something that very easily conveys it is a Switch 2. No fucking around. Don't fuck me on this.

I don't want anything else! I want more Switch.

Are people trolling the poll? Why are there so many "no" votes?

Switch 2 is the great choice - especially if they plan on iterating on the product. They can drop the Switch + number convention when it stops being a Switch, but until then they best not put pointlessly ambiguous bullshit like X, S, U, "New", Advance, Super etc on it.

Maybe they'll stick with the Switch for a long time and then they could adopt the cellphone model of just releasing a partial upgrade ever so often and call it like Switch S or Switch XLLLL or w/e the fuck but this time actually making significant console changes.

That said they are gunna call it The Switcher 2.

Switch Plus, Super Switch, All New Switch.... All terrible names, at least the Switch 2 will let people know exactly what it is. But Nintendo could change the form factor entirely which would mean an entirely new name.
