Nintendo's Switch 2 is finally here, marking another chapter in the company's impressive 40+ year history of game consoles. This latest entry seems to be a more cautious iteration, at least initially, but we're eager to see what Nintendo has up its sleeve. This article delves into the Switch 2 trailer details, but first, let's take a nostalgic trip through Nintendo's console legacy.
Over the decades, Nintendo has released eight home consoles (NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, GameCube, Wii, Wii U, and Switch) and five handhelds (Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, DS, and 3DS). Ranking them is a subjective task, considering both hardware innovation and the quality of their game libraries. Here's one possible ranking, factoring in both aspects:
My personal "S" tier includes the NES – filled with cherished childhood memories of classics like Super Mario Bros., Mega Man 2, and Hook – and the Switch, a marvel of hybrid design (despite the occasional joy-con drift) boasting exceptional titles like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Super Mario Odyssey.
