that's 5 years late to the party

i know but i still believe boom is the third Era of Sonic

In the official sense (like how Sonic Generations groups them), there are three main eras of Sonic that many fans talk about: Classic, Modern, and Boom (or sometimes Dreamcast instead of Boom). Here’s a human‑friendly breakdown:

1. Classic Era
   This is the original Sonic — the old‑school 2D platformers on the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive and similar systems. It’s the era defined by the first Sonic games where he was faster than ever before and focused on rings, loops, and side‑scrolling action.
2. Modern Era
   The 3D Sonic era — starting with Sonic Adventure and going through titles like Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Colors, Sonic Forces, etc. This era expanded Sonic into full 3D worlds and more complex mechanics like homing attack, boosting, and bigger story focus.
3. Boom Era
   This era comes from the Sonic Boom spin‑off series (games and TV), which has its own continuity and style for Sonic and friends. It’s usually seen as distinct because of its redesigned characters and different tone and storytelling from the mainline series. Fans refer to Classic, Modern, and Boom as three broad “timelines” or thematic eras of Sonic content.
   So in simple terms:
   Classic → the old 2D Genesis style
   Modern → the 3D mainline games
   Boom → the spin‑off universe with its own look and stories
   If you want the official Sonic Generations categorization specifically, inside that game they actually call them Classic Era, Dreamcast Era, and Modern Era (Dreamcast being the transitional Adventure‑era 3D Sonic titles).

They're still not gonna recognize the web browsers tho

i agree the switch 2 needs a web browser

@KiwiFarmsArkavel said in there's still Hope for a Real web browser on Nintendo Switch 2:

I think the mouse is used for Fortnite
Games Built Around Mouse Controls
These titles use Mouse Mode as their primary or essential control scheme:

Mouse Work: A party game designed entirely around mouse-controlled minigames, such as stacking boxes or closing pop-up ads.

Drag x Drive: A racing game where you slide two Joy-Con in mouse mode to simulate the movement of a wheelchair.

Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour: A tech demo featuring specific activities, such as dodging obstacles, that showcase the feature.
Enhanced Ports and New Releases (Optional)
Many major titles offer Mouse Mode for more precise aiming or easier menu navigation:

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond: Allows you to swap to mouse mode on the fly for PC-style aiming and shooting.

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition: Uses the feature for combat precision; it also supports traditional keyboard and USB mouse setups.

Sid Meier’s Civilization VII: Provides a more intuitive way to issue commands and select units, similar to the PC experience.

Hogwarts Legacy: A dedicated Switch 2 version that incorporates mouse support for unspecified gameplay elements.

Fortnite: Supports mouse controls in various modes like Battle Royale and Team Rumble (patch required for some features).

Animal Crossing: New Horizons (Switch 2 Edition): Features mouse support to make island decorating faster and easier.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess: Uses the mouse for placing villager allies and managing real-time strategy elements.
Classic and Retro Games
Specific titles on the Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) service have been updated to support Mouse Mode:
Mario Paint (SNES)
Mario’s Super Picross (SNES)
Nobunaga's Ambition (SNES)
Other Notable Supporters

Deltarune: Features a "special room" designed specifically for dual-mouse controls.

Donkey Kong Bananza: Second players can use it to trigger "vocal blasts" or create rock sculptures in Artist mode.

Super Mario Party Jamboree: Includes a "Jamboree TV" pack with minigames built specifically for this mode.

Game Builder Garage: Received a free update to enable Joy-Con 2 Mouse Mode support.

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S: Uses the mouse as a cursor to highlight suggested placements for teammates.

The Nintendo Switch 2 could finally make web browsing a genuinely useful experience thanks to its new mouse mode. Imagine actually being able to click, scroll, and navigate websites as smoothly as on a computer—suddenly, a web browser on the Switch isn’t just a “nice-to-have,” it’s practical. With a built-in mouse, tasks like reading articles, checking emails, or even managing cloud documents become much easier. This small but significant feature gives the Switch 2 a new level of versatility, making it not just a gaming console, but a lightweight productivity tool too. Finally, web browsing on a Nintendo device might feel less like a frustrating gimmick and more like a real option.

Edit: Nintendo Should Also remove the option to Download things on the web bowser to avoid web exploits like on xbox

SwitchBrew Dns went 8 or 9 years with No successful Web exploits

Hey everyone!

We all love our Nintendo Switch, but one thing has been missing for a long time: a fully-functional internet browser. Right now, the Switch browser is limited and basically unusable for anything beyond logging into Wi-Fi. Imagine if we could actually browse the web, watch videos, or use web apps directly on our Switch—no extra devices needed!

Signing this petition isn’t just about convenience. It’s about unlocking the Switch’s full potential. The hardware is capable, so why shouldn’t we have access to a proper browser? More functionality means more ways to enjoy the system, whether you’re on the go or just relaxing on the couch.

If we show Nintendo that there’s enough demand, they might finally give us a real browser—and we could use our Switches in ways we’ve only dreamed of until now.

So please, take a moment and sign the petition. Let’s make the Switch even more amazing!

Hey everyone! 👋

I just signed this petition because Nintendo really needs to unlock the fully functional internet browser on the Switch—and it’s even more important for the Switch 2! With the new Switch having a touchscreen and mouse support, a proper browser would make browsing, streaming, and productivity so much easier.
