Nintendo’s Switch 2 Pricing Will Hit Hard

Pricing for the Nintendo Switch 2 has proven to be mildly controversial. In reality, it’s the costing of everything around the console that should be raising eyebrows. Right now you can jump onto Steam and buy a Deck from as little as £350. The OLED model with more than 500GB of memory costs £479. The Switch 2 console on its own is £395.99 – although no doubt scalpers will be adding a pretty penny at launch. I don’t think that’s…

The Potential of the Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con Mouse

Nintendo officially confirmed what we already knew – the Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con controllers had a mouse capability which would allow you to play some mouse-based games. What Nintendo did show off in the direct wasn’t as appealing to me – although Drag X Drive is intriguing, as was that mini-golf minigame – the potential for the mouse compatibility in games is exciting. Throughout today’s Nintendo Direct, a number of really great titles were announced as coming to the Nintendo…

Switch 2: Good Enough for Now

Nintendo are launching a new console at the worst possible time. Their feature set is questionable. They’re charging for absolutely everything, including the game that explains how the console works. People are excited, the biggest fans will buy it no matter what. But the best we can say? The Switch 2 is not without hurdles to hop. Just hours after the Nintendo Direct revealing its brand new console, US President Donald Trump is holding a press conference of his own.…

Mario Kart World – Bigger Doesn’t Mean Better

I’m not going to lie, my excitement for Mario Kart World is incredibly higher and likely will only be driven higher when the game gets its own Nintendo Direct on April 17. An open world-ish Mario Kart experience was probably the last thing I would have expected from the franchise, but it could be a positive change. Trying to build on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is going to be one hell of a task. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the…

More Thoughts From Me Special Edition: Switch 2 Blows Me Away

We just saw the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct. I was floored by this new system. I couldn’t believe what I saw. So I have to talk about it as much as I can. Here we gooooo! Today we saw the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct. I was so blown away by it. Though I want to say, I just found out that it’ll cost $699.99 CAD with Mario Kart World and $629.99 CAD without. Yeah, I won’t be able to get…

GameCube Coming to Nintendo Switch Online

Another system is being added to Nintendo Switch Online – that’s right, Nintendo GameCube will be heading to the Nintendo Switch 2 along with a brand new Nintendo GameCube wireless controller. There’s a bit to dig into here, so let’s talk about it. First and foremost, the release of the Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is probably enough confirmation that we won’t be getting a remaster of that game anytime soon on Nintendo Switch 2. Is it a guarantee?…

Nintendo Switch 2 Will Update Nintendo Switch Games

As shown in today’s Nintendo Direct, Nintendo plans to release updates for some past Nintendo Switch titles to enhance them on Nintendo Switch 2. This does make a ton of sense, allowing Nintendo to quickly expand their initial game base by simply releasing updates for old titles. A few games were shown off during the Direct, including updates to Mario Party Jamboree, and the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.…

Fantasy Life (Back) on Nintendo Switch

In a move that perhaps did surprise me, although perhaps it didn’t, Fantasy Life is once again coming to the Nintendo Switch. I say once again because there was a fair amount of drama around the title when Level-5 released the final release trailer. Editor Note – in their last gameplay trailer about a month ago, Level-5 did indicate it was coming to “All Platforms” and showed a bit of Nintendo Switch gameplay. However, many including myself missed that trailer…

Hats Off to Nintendo’s Switch Support

Last week’s Nintendo Direct was pretty special. It had some deep cuts for fans, some major announcements, some decent third party stuff. They announced system level features and an news app, updated daily. This is the kind of dedication we expect to see from a console at the height of its sales potential, and yet this also marked the very last Direct dedicated to the Switch. That’s absolutely spectacular. Listen, there is a lot you can knock Nintendo for. Their…
