This is a weird one, but I’d love to see a reimplementation of the sensor bar. The gyro controls haven’t cut it for me. I like how the Wii U game pad had the sensor bar built in to the bezel. The real engineering nightmare would be squeezing IR cameras into the top of the Joycon

Haven't seen this mentioned yet, but I want to be able to put my save files on the SD card, not just games. I have crappy rural internet, so backing up save flies to the cloud is painful.

It's infuriating there is no real way to back up switch saves at all without a subscription. It's a portable console which is even more likely to have issues than a traditional one, I already had mine stolen once and lost everything. Now I just play on Yuzu and I can backup whatever I want.

Integrated voice chat, or even better, Discord support like PS and Xbox are doing.

I’d love for the Dock itself to be way shorter, and not go up the entire height of the console. AKA I’m tired of my Switch screen getting scratched every damn time it goes in or out of the dock.

…On the bottom. One on the top that can work in tandem with some sort of sensor bar would have to be squeezed in above the R and ZR buttons.

I have multiple..

  • Like many others, backwards compatibility
  • and while we're at it. Make games upgradable like PS4 to PS5
  • System level voice chat. Not depending on the game or smartphone app
  • better friend system
  • Focus on 1080p 60fps performance, games less than that are simply not allowed. When possible a ingame toggle to quality mode that gives 4K 30fps at minimum.
  • cloud save backup on ALL games.
  • controller with audio through aux or usb-c
  • try less to be different, try more to be better
  • actual functioning invite to game option for friends

This is all I can think of right now.

I honestly do not need a different new system. I just want something better than the current Switch in terms of performance.

I want an easily-exploited OS for CFW.

[–] jeangheno@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I don't think we'll ever have anything like the switch V1, it's not just very easy but also has crazy possibilities, I use Android on mine all the time, and it works perfectly like it isn't even a hack, even seamlessly booting from one to another system, Nintendo will probably be a lot more careful next time, we'll probably have cfw in the next one but I think it's gonna take a long time and won't be nowhere good as switch is

I would like to see a much better home firmware than horizon. Compared to the 3ds and the wiiu horizon is severely lacking.

  • folders
  • themes
  • activity log
  • music
  • mii maker

All are severely lacking compared to previous implementations .

Ontop of this Nintendo online still sucks and I'd love to see it improved once and for all. I'd love to see servers for Nintendo games instead of them relying on peer to peer.

please have a headphone jack. idk if this is something we need to actually worry about...but i really dislike that newer phones keep omitting the headphone jack. bluetooth just isn't the same!

But the right joy-con already has a IR-Camera.

A much smaller bezel. It's so big on my original Switch, and the screen could be so much larger and prettier if it went nearly to the edges, without making the console larger at all.
