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.


The game was always pretty decent, the big hoogabloo was because of the $80 pricetag and Nintendo normalizing that as a standard industry price, which every other major publisher immediately followed.
Same for the Switch 2 in general. It’s not a bad console, but the price ask (console, games, switch 2 update packs) is what made everyone mad because we got so much more for so much less during the DS/3DS and Wii/WiiU era.
Nintendo is a quality developer but they’ve really doubled down on their hubris during the Switch era just because of the sheer amount of money they made, and the money they intend to keep making.
