Nintendo Switch 2 Direct Thoughts


I will be writing my thoughts on the recent switch 2 direct
Which has a lot of exciting stuff and potential but also some concerns and issues 

Let's goo 

First with  
Mario Kart World a brand new Mario Kart game for the switch 2 and HOLY SHIT IT LOOKS AMAZING 
New and old stages
Costume changes which is a nice and a lot of good outfits too 
GRINDING ON RAILS!! 
and you can even play random characters such as the fish
Snowman and the best of all

FUCKING MOO MOO
I think there's also some new power ups too 
As well as a free roam mode which is a mode im really excited about as I love driving and chilling in car stuff and its not always just sweat and racing 
Knock-out tour is defs gonna be filled with sweat and friendship losses lmao 

Photo mode looks super fun too as i love taking photography in games 

I think it will overall have great potential and fun times and I look forward to playing it

Up next the switch 2 features and my thoughts on it  (using my tv cause I'm lazy getting pics lol) 

The game chat option seems silly at first as discord exists and other social media 
HOWEVER it is good for families and really young kids to keep away from bad people online especially groomers and pedos
So I hope Nintendo will be really strict with the game chat stuff 
The Nintendo switch camera im also a bit unsure about it and if if will properly or not though this piranha plant one will be really fucking funny 


And don't get me started on how bad the share screen will lag and be really fucking shit 
So while it's good for families and young kids as I said earlier
And I hope for really good restrictions 
It's gonna lag and be so ass 

Gameshare 
Seems like a good idea and good for those that  don't own the game 
I remember this being done on the ds and 3ds back in the day 
Though online wise it might be very laggy 

Now about the system itself 
The bigger screen looks really nice
And hard to believe it can run up to 1080p and 4k to 120fps that's hard for believe 

The joycon magnets im unsure whether it will work properly or not or could easily break 

My friend chaotic netrual system also brought up how the magnets might not be good for those with pacemakers and hearing aids  hopefully the magnets aren't that big of an issue regarding that but we shall wait and see 

I do like how the sr and sl buttons are bigger now which is good for my tiny hands and fingers 

The mouse controls i was surprised about and I am curious how that will work with certian games 

Two usb c ports seem pretty handy mainly for charging or other controllers


Also surprised about the built in fan 

I'm glad to hear you can still play switch 1 games on the switch 2
With some paid upgrades which I hope is decent prices 


The welcome tour looks fun but I am disappointed you have to pay for it cause at least astros playroom was free
The welcome tour should be a free thing for those who want to understand the console better 

The micro sd express cards while seem like a good idea
It's also really expensive 


I do hope my sonic gamecube controller i can connect to switch 2 and I'll explain why in a bit 

Mario Party jamoree switch 2 edition gives me 360 kinnect vibes with the camera and voice controls 

And I bet it's gonna be really silly 

Drag x drive looks like a fun game to play with the switch 2 controls and good disability rep too 

Another hyrule warriors looks like fun
Always enjoyed those kind of games with a lot of slashy slashy 


It's nice to hear about gamecube games on the switch 2 
And a good legal way for people to play these games 

However i much prefer using an emulator lol 
But hopefully if I do try it out i can still use my sonic gamecube controller


HOLY SHIT A NEW KIRBY AIR RIDERS LOOKS REALLY GOOD AND EXCITING
THAT I CANNOT WAIT TO PLAY!!! 

And last let's talk about the new donkey kong game 
Donkey Kong Bananza 

Which I will say also looks really fun and I love donkey kongs new design and lot 


Overall the switch 2 direct was a lot of fun
Very excited for the new games coming out
And the console as a lot of potential 
I hope to get it on my birthday/Christmas or on April 2026 but will figure out when once I hear how it goes on launch 

The price being 700 to 770 dollars aud is frustrating and games being around 120 aud is also annoying 
 But I'm unfortunately use to that kind of thing over here in Australia especially with ps5 games
It will mean me learning a lot of patience and saving up so wish me luck on that...

That's all for now

Later my dudes
