Well I’m here for the 3 big AAA Nintendo in house games.
Mario kart world
DK Bananza
Metroid prime 4
And hopefully some more before Christmas.
And they will all be played docked only on a 65” QD OLED.

@Serpenterror
Well it would not confuse me having a home console version and would be a lot cheaper.
And the option would be great.

They would definitely sell many of them especially for those wanting a second home console that would cost around £250 ish to get those Nintendo AAA in house exclusives.

Let’s look at this another way.
You are being forced to buy an handheld version of a console Switch 2 with no home console cheaper version for £400 for 3.1 tflops of power.

Why didn’t Nintendo also do a home Switch 2 version for say £250. So others just playing at home docked could enjoy Nintendo games with a cheaper console home model only.
They are no angels Nintendo they are a cut throat business.

At least the PS5 at £430 has 10.2 tflops of power.

@WaveBoy
I have Sony A95L QD OLED and it is the smoothest I’ve ever since.
And I’ve had S95C, LG C3 and X95L mini LED.

Should have put a little effort in to make this full wide screen for modern TVs.
Very LAZY indeed Nintendo.
Such a great game and deserves wide screen and so do us gamers paying for it.

Running 120fps really is a waste of resource and time would rather stick at 60fps
When playing games on all the console the jump from 30fps to 60fps is amazing so smooth and responsive but the 60fps to 120fps if you spot it the difference at all is minor, it’s to do with the human and how it works it can only do so much.
That’s with the series x and PS5 so the switch 2 will be no different.
I think Nintendo are doing this with MP4 and MKW just to stay trendy with Sony and Microsoft, total waste of time.

I think the 3.1tflops of the switch 2 have gone into the 24 karts on track and the wider courses and field of view etc and some other minor look improvements.

Still wish Nintendo had done a home switch 2 version for about £300 would have been a great entry into the switch 2 and Nintendo games just as a home console. It maybe even cheaper than £300.
I only play docked and feel I am paying extra for the handheld side of the Swtich 2 that I don’t require.
They could have easily done this with the switch 2 pro controller as it already exists.

Also you would around £150 for a family of four to go to a theme park like Alton Towers.
And that’s just say 8 hours leisure time.

A game could give a family of 4 at £70 many more hours entertainment overall.

Most consoles are reasonably priced.
Though the PS5 and series x should have had a price reduction by now and the PS5 Pro is a little steep but they deliberately stuck 2tb ssd in it so you pay £100 for another forced 1tb of ssd memory else the console would £600 or less instead of £700, smart ole Sony.

As for the switch games I got the MKW bundle so that’s good.
DKB at £57 digitally sounds ok to me.
Will be interesting when we get a new MARIO platform game and Splatoon 4 to see they get priced at.

But we pay £1000 for a top smart phone or £4.00 for a coffee that’s gone in minutes or £50 for a football or concert ticket and that’s the cheap seats that is finished in 2 hours.

So us gamers are not doing to bad price wise overall.

@BenAV
Well done, glad you got one down under.

At this rate with all this stuff going and with preorders in other countries as well they will need to rename the console.

Switch European 2.

Totally rubbish so much difference in what was said and definitely how and where it was said the situation.
Don said what he said right after a drubbing from Sony on how to share games and not having to be always online. That’s was funny and a middle finger to Xbox at the time.

Even to this day some want Xbox to fail, which they sort of have console wise.

What Doug said was about cost and alternatives to Nintendo games.

Anyway won’t make any difference to sales, not as much as this whole USA and Canada tariff business delaying preorders over there.

@Multi
Glad you all got one.
I did the same last week when preorders went live on Smyths toys.
Got myself MKW bundle and pro controller.
Mentioned it on here and a few more gamers managed to get one. ☝️

Meant June and July.

Console etc all fine and release games May and June.
MP4 release date?
What about after from Nintendo studios
A couple or at least one big AAA before from N studios before Christmas 🎄
Where’s my 8 plus year wait for a new Mario 3d platform game?
Software and mainly for me Nintendos big AAA software make a Nintendo console.

@johnvboy
Argos UK still have preorders up for both consoles.
Either they have thousands of them or it’s going slow ish.

Got mine last from Smyths toys.
MKW bundle and pro controller.

The only thing I would say and I know some say it takes away the Switch 2 ethos.

But just a home version could have been made
In the light of increasing prices.
At say a price of £300, cleverly putting under the PS5 digital.

I maybe think it might happen with the switch 2. The switch 2 home maybe.

I would have preordered that version instead of the Switch 2 that I have pre-ordered anyway, but if after a year or two sales are slower than Switch, which I think they will be at switch 2 home could inject sales.

@obijuankanoobie
Yes you are correct.
Dam shame they haven’t made them wide screen for switch 2 and put the effort in.
Would have been great.

@dartmonkey
Thank you.
Dam shame would be so much better using the full screen.
They should have done this and do this with all GameCube on switch 2 games.
Would be nice if they made a little bit more effort.

@dartmonkey
Quick question is wind waker full wide screen display for modern TVs?
The picture taking up the whole screen or have we got black borders left and right?

Dam how could I forget
Metroid 4 🫣

Switch 2 with MKW bundle pre-ordered.
Switch 2 pro controller pre-ordered.
Family plus expansion covers game cube
And Zelda upgrades.
DK Bananza will buy digital.
That covers me for summer time.

@Skippermonkey
You got the same as me
But I got the MKW SWITCH 2 bundle
Then Pro controller just after.
All Smyths Toys UK.

That’s all we need a pro mouse 🤣🤣🤣

I actually stay away from the joycons overall anyway as I’m a docked gamer.
So mouse wheel means nothing to me and a total waste of product cost.

Give me the pro controller anytime.
Switch 2 pro controller preordered.

Never minds the kids, think sometimes I need that for me 🤣

5th of June is under 2 months away
Gonna seem like 2 years.

My family pack has just come up for renewal.
So thought dam it and went the family pack with the full expansion.
Used my remaining gold coins so got it a bit cheaper as well.

So have the whole lot now ready for my preordered switch 2 MKW bundle.

I’m all digital and have BOTW and TOTK
and membership so will give TOTK a try on June the 5th.

@DonkeyKongBigBoy
I might be ok, I’m online plus expansion family member.

Is the upgrade free or cheaper for online plus expansion members like BOTW and TOTK.

Mario kart world & Donkey Kong Bananza
Nintendo believes in generations 😊

Couldn’t help myself any team blue out there 🤣

I would maybe imagine also like Sonys own studios. When Nintendo release switch 2 only new in house developed games they can make even better use of the switch 2 internal speeds and loading times.

@Chasloyal
Got mine with the MK bundle Smyths toys last night.
Then today the switch 2 pro controller.

All I know so far when UK sites have put up preorders starting last night with Smyths toys, they are all sold out in minutes.

Digital games should be cheaper than physical of course because of less costs and a shop profit.
It’s the right way round, all other companies take note.

Managed to get the switch 2 MK bundle preordered last night in UK, so all good and great price for the game. £30 I think it works out with the switch 2 bundle. Digital of course.

4K at 60fps with HDR docked does it for me.
On switch 2.

@Member_the_game
Cheers, of course that’s what I meant.
I did see that and thought, ok mate 🤣

Looks like the April the 8th preorder date is definitely broken now.
Keeping checking all, good luck.

@stuie1234
Home delivery up again for switch 2 with MK bundle.
It did go down for a while, but back up now.

Smyths toys now showing out of stock for preorders.

Just keeping an eye on Smyths Toys to see if the switch 2 pro controllers go up.
Not to fussed about sd card yet as switch 2 as 256gb internal memory available.

@Member_the_game
See you on the race track MK world 🤣

@UltimateOtaku91
Smyths toys just take 1p as a place holder
So that’s ok.

@ZAHMED
Yes it always normally says processing.
You should have 1p place holder on your credit card from Smyths toys.
