Got the Switch 2 Zelda Edition and having a blast with Mario Kart World.

I was worried with all the criticism on Reddit, Lemmy and general on the internet that the game would be such a letdown but I think exactly because of the criticism and that I never really had any expectations that the game is now really fun for me.

I like that the races are a bit chaotic and really love the KnockOut Tour thing. I also like the new animations and the way the game looks.

The only two things that I have to get used two are; the racing feels a bit slower and that drifting seems a little different than the previous game(s).

As for the Switch 2 itself, its nice! But I’ll be purchasing these third party grips. The console feels non-ergonomic (coming from a Steam Deck).

Can’t wait until Ocarina Remake is released and a month or two later will be getting Tears of Kingdom (or Bananza).

I’m also slightly hoping that Nintendo will be making a sequel of Mario Odyssey and Captain Toad Tracker.

    Overall it feels “squishy” to me. But I’m glad you’re enjoying it! I’m one of those people that wasn’t impressed with it, but that’s almost entirely due to MK8 being nearly perfect for a decade before MKW came out. Following that up was always going to be a tough ask.

      Yeah, I can understand the feeling of squishy-ness. But after playing MK8D for a very long time, this feels like a breath of fresh air
