Mario Kart World!

Looks cool - an open world racing game, you drive between the courses in between races! And you can go off-course and explore, or just drive and chill.

It’s a launch title.

Now I might have to actually get a Switch 2 on launch :laughing:

New ‘c’ button on the Joycons for GameChat.

Built-in voice chat and screen sharing!

The screen sharing looks low-framerate ngl

There is a Webcam you can buy…

Some future games will use the webcam, like Mario Party

I know the C button is essentially just features that other consoles have already had, but I adore how Nintendo is presenting it, very neat

Oh god, webcams :sweat_smile:

Local multiplayer games can be shared with other local Switch consoles so that everyone can use their own Switch, only some games though. We’re so back DS

GameShare - you can play a game on multiple systems temporarily with just one copy of the game.

Only select games.

7.9 inch bigger screen, same thickness.

Double the pixels, 1080p screen.

120fps. LCD with HDR.

Joycons connect magnetically. They are bigger.

Mouse controls :heart_eyes: this would be so great for some games

Dock comes with built-in cooling system, I suspect this will allow Nintendo to ramp up docked performance higher than the original Switch’s.

Also built in Ethernet port :star_struck:

Nintendo Switch Welcome Tour - a game to learn how to use the Switch 2.

It’s basically a tutorial, little mini games.

It’s not free?!?!

My exact reaction :sob:

If it’s anything like Astro’s playroom for the PS5, it’ll be worth the price, though hopefully it’s not more than $10 or something :anxious_face_with_sweat:

New Pro Controller, with a ‘c’ button. And new GL and GR buttons.

Don’t know if I’d bother replacing mine…
