@canaryfarmer So it's really good then? 🤣

@YoshiTails Pardon my ignorance, it's an age thing... but is the word 'Slaps' a good or bad thing? 😁👍

Is this playable on the original Switch does anyone know?
I only see the SW2 version.

Edit: Sorry, just found it 😛

@Kidfunkadelic83 I love a good arcade racer, and Rage Racer was one of them.

@Skunkfish I did get that, still dull though

Cool, but those presenters were as dull as dishwater to be honest... it was all a bit wooden and very scripted in my opinion.

@Ristar24 Exactly, the console is just too expensive for what it is.

I only use my Switch handheld and have a small selection of games (Balatro; Easy Golf; Crimson Clover), so before the reveal, I wasn't sure upgrading would be worth it, and it isn't. Even if I had more premium games, I still don't feel the upgrade is worth it.

Even Nintendo Life has put out a video on youtube, surprised by the pricing.

@Jacket_p Yeah, but you're not buying a pub to then buy the pint... 😏

If you're excited about the new chat and camera features then this is great news, but from a 'sit down just to play a game point of view', I personally don't think the experience of having a Switch 2 will be that different from a Switch 1.

@Spider-Kev I'm pretty sure they refer to Astro Playroom on the PS5. I never played it either, but it was FREE with the console and acted like a tech demo, that utilised all the controller features.

Yeah, I don't get this... It might only be £4.65, but why feel the need to charge for it, when they're already charging the extortionate prices of £60-£80 for the games? I just can't justify paying that much for games anymore... and to be honest, even before I discovered the pricing, the Direct didn't make me feel that I should be upgrading my Switch anytime soon.

I'm also a bit of a recluse when it comes to my gaming time really, so all these new chat and camera features don't really appeal to me.

I'm really only playing 2 or 3 games at the moment on my switch, so the reveal didn't make me feel that I need to upgrade immediately. I'd like to see what the specs are first too.

Ooh! I quite like the look of Sherwood Builders, one of those screenshots reminded me of Settlers from my amiga days.

Love this game, really addictive.

Just started playing this over the weekend and I'm addicted... 🤣 A lot of fun.

No Mario Maker news... quite disappointed about that.
