Yeah, I have already done this myself in Mario Kart World. It was the first time I had ever seen it in my play experience.

I have an immense amount of respect for this man. Even though it hasn't been long, I still miss whenever he was the voice of Mario. It was a completely different era.

The magnets are still a much better option over the rails that we were using before. Just like with anything else, you have to be careful when using it. And make sure your kids know how to properly attach and detach Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Cons.

This will definitely be useful for tournaments. I won't have much of a use for it though.

I've been enjoying the game myself but I'm honestly more excited for Donkey Kong Bonanza. I don't enjoy Mario Kart games as much as I used to and I typically look for different experiences. That being said though, the game is still really fun and is a great family game. I have been having fun exploring the free roam areas and playing Grand Prix mode. I haven't really messed around for battle mode yet. I am saving that for family game night.

I personally am happy with the screen that was given. I never owned a Nintendo Switch OLED so I don't only have that type of comparison. The only comparison I would have would be with my Steam Deck OLED and that isn't really a fair comparison since it can't go up to 120 hz. I don't think I would even upgrade even if they did offer an OLED variant in the future unless there were some other specific features that made it worth a purchase.

I have really been enjoying mine. It still isn't replacing my Steam Deck OLED as my primary gaming machine, but it has been a fantastic family gaming device. I have no qualms with it at this point.

I was really hoping that Nintendo would have adjusted the technology behind their joycon sticks. Mine are working perfectly fine right now, but I wonder how long that will last.

I don5 have the money to purchase one right now but rest assured I will be getting one. I am more concerned with having enough money to get Donkey Kong Bonanza.

I think I would rather play the game for fun and earn the coins over time. We haven't gotten a new Mario Kart game in a very long time. There isn't much reason to rush the enjoyment of this one.

Honestly, the game really does look pretty cutesy. I love the colors and character models. The animations seem a little stiff but I vibe with it. 12 shops also seems like a decent amount of content. I actually think I would like to play it. I'd definitely get it for Nintendo Switch 2. I wonder what the price point is. I didn't see it listed in the article.

I saw this news on one of my social media apps earlier. It is a shame for sure because I honestly have enjoyed both of the Yooka-Laylee games. Layoffs will be a harsh reality during our curing gaming climate.

I only put about 10 or so hours into the game myself and I really enjoyed my time with the game. I don't think I will play much more because I feel like I got my fill of the game. Free content is always good content though so this is great for regular players.

I'll probably be mainly playing Left 4 Dead 2 on Steam Deck this weekend. I can't see myself playing much else. Regardless, Happy gaming everyone!

I guess sometimes the blue hedgehog that has to go fast, has to go even faster. That is what Red Bull is for.

Epic. I love little technical details like those that make our gaming experience special.

I wonder how that name is pronounced.

Of course Mario Kart World is the ideal launch title. That is clearly how Nintendo planned to kickstart the Nintendo Switch 2 generation all along, and many people had guessed a long time ago that a new Mario Kart game wasn't going to show up until the Nintendo Switch 2. It is a sound business strategy, and it is one that will pay off for the entire lifespan of the system.

I love the prominent red border on the outside of the cases. I wonder if any cases will get special color palettes based on their games.

Honestly, I prefer the more focused North American variant. I feel like the Japanese one has too much going on.

Those two games are the games that I am most excited to play for Nintendo Switch 2 to be honest, besides the new first party games from Nintendo. I have held off on playing both of those titles due to the performance problems. If the performance gets stabilized with the new system, I would be more than happy to purchase both games.

I already saw the photos on social media earlier this week and I am thrilled. I have always had a soft spot for Kingdom Hearts and I am genuinely excited for Kingdom Hearts IV.

I can't necessarily say that I am ghosting the Nintendo Switch 1. I simply haven't been playing mine in many months because I have become majorly unimpressive with its technical performance. It feels very antiquated to me. I am definitely looking forward to an upgrade with the Nintendo Switch 2.

I'll definitely believe it when I see it. I honestly expect it to be true though due to the increased power and performance provided by the Nintendo Switch 2. They have all the tools they need to make that idea a reality.

That is good news at least, though I expected nothing less. That should honestly be an expectation, not a welcome surprise.

I don't really think I will be playing too many games this weekend. I haven't been feeling up to playing any games the last few weeks. I have been focused more onw watching streamers and my home life. Maybe I will play a little of Minecraft on one of the online servers. For those that do game this weekend, happy gaming!

It really is a shame that there is no upgrade path for those who purchased the Nintendo Switch version. I would gladly pay a fee to play it on Nintendo Switch 2 with mouse support. This type of game would greatly benefit from that.

To be honest, I didn't have a very difficult time getting one. I got mine at Wal-Mart and the process went pretty smoothly.

This was one of the few announcements that actually got me a little excited. I will have to see more details before I know for sure if I am interested. Donkey Kong Bonanza looks pretty great as well.

Honestly, when I think back on my experiences with these games as a kid, it feels like a mixer of an acid trip and a blur. Great times, but I can't recall all of the details years later.

That is a darn shame. I actually really enjoyed Dauntless but I fell off after about 60 hours. This is the trend of most live service games these days besides the major ones.

Even though both systems are primarily handheld devices, they are both aiming for two completely different markets so this is no surprise to me. I love my Steam Deck OLED, and I know I will enjoy the Nintendo Switch 2. I don't put them in the same bracket.

I will probably pass on this one. I actually really enjoyed Pokemon Legends: Arceus but the setting in this one isn't super interesting to me. I never liked Lumiose City in the first place. I also enjoyed the more primitive time period in the first game as well.

Honestly, this makes me really sad. I truly enjoyed using gold points on some of my purchases and I will really miss them. Hopefully Nintendo will be replacing it with something else.

I will definitely be watching it. I love all of that Sonic movies, and I really enjoyed the Knuckles show on Paramount+.

I am actually a little interested in this game, though I will probably be picking it up on Steam Deck OLED instead of Nintendo Switch.

I will always prefer a more game-play oriented Zelda game over one that prioritizes story. Honestly, in my opinion, most of the Zelda games I have played already have plenty of lore hidden within. The only Zelda games I have played in recent years that I felt were a bit light on story elements was The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Maybe it is just because those are larger games with a high focus on game-play and their larger worlds. Most Zelda games I have played have plenty of story to go around.

I personally am just holding out for the Steam Deck 2 and the Nintendo Switch 2. I can't really see a world in which I would want to own a Xbox handheld.

I personally prefer the more colorful version of the Japanese variant. I don't think either image is a great representation of what the game is all about though.

@Lumi777 Absolutely! I am reasonably keeping my expectations in check considering the age of the game.

Ah yes. I always enjoy some of that sweet stability.

Am I safe to assume that this control option can't be swapped? I honestly haven't played too much of this series besides Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. I do love both of those games though. They are incredible RPG experiences.

I am pretty stoked to play this game on Steam Deck OLED. I have the trailer a few times back to back and I cannot get enough. I have always loved Dragon Quest though, and I haven't played this one yet. This will be a completely fresh experience for me.

Well, I just finished playing The Upturned on Steam Deck so I may be playing Smushi Come Home next on the same system. I have been pretty addicted to shorter games that pack a punch in terms of content, and it finally went on sale so I just couldn't resist. Happy gaming everyone!

That is a pretty epic little fact! I had no idea the voice actress was kept secret in the first place to be honest.

Awesome interview! Asking all of the right questions, and he seems like such a. Genuine person. He just oozes Stardew Valley vibes in real life.

While he is certainly correct, the ideas spawned from his brain has captured the imaginations of gamers for generations. The impact he has made on the gaming industry can never be overstated.

I keep debating back and forth if I want to install it on my smartphone. My brother has been using it, and he has had positive things to say. My phone is just getting older, and I want to keep its storage space for essential apps so I am going to have to decide if I consider this one to be an essential app.

At this point, the only reason why I still have the expansion pack membership is for my kids. I would much prefer the lower tiered membership option. That would sacrifice some of my kids' gaming enjoyment, and I can't do that.

His contributions are very much appreciated. Hopefully he founds success with whichever projects he is currently working on.
