Same video, but for America. Had me confused on the Direct Dates. Good looks Gordonson

So Is the launch in April?

Just a Nintendo Direct.

 

[spiderjericho]

Were you guys impressed by the graphics in Mario Kart 9?

Obviously it's a first look. I'm excited. Going to buy one for myself and my daughter.

 

[Ricky D]

I don’t feel like enough was shown for me to really get excited. I do have full confidence in them though. Mario Kart always looks good. It looks like there’s going to be a lot (24?) more racers on the track this time too. 200cc going to be complete chaos

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

What other games are releasing for it at launch?

My man, you at least 3 months too early to be asking for this.

We'll see. I'm less concerned about launch titles, as I am to see the next year of releases. I think we could see A LOT of ports from the last couple years: Tekken 8, SF6, Lies of P, Elden Ring, CoD, Madden, P3 Reload, Metaphor Re:Fantazio (hell Soul Hackers 2 might get it's revival), Final Fantasys, etc.

And if Xbox finally pulls the trigger and puts Game Pass on this thing, they'll get all the users they ever wanted.

Physical Switch games. There. They finally said it. Had to hear it from them.

I agree it’s too early to know the launch titles but I’m definitely more intrigued to see the launch titles that are new as opposed to old ports. I also hope Nintendo updates some of their own games to take advantage of the new hardware.

First line of business.

See how this thing can handle Korok Forest

 

[Ricky D]

If this is true, we should all be able to eat day one!

$400 is pretty steep. Good luck Nintendo

 

[Ricky D]

Nintendo will be just fine at $400, if they decide to go that route. They knew exactly what they were doing with that new MK teaser.

price it at $500 and give me an oled screen man

 

[nice jahb]

$400 for something that might be more powerful than the Steamdeck, has Nintendo first party games, and able to play more modern games handheld?

Yeah, I'm cool with spending that. Still better than the $500 stationary PS5/Xbox outing. Time for us Nintendo fanboys to find our capes.

 

[Ricky D]

I want the OLED screen too despite playing it docked 97% of the time. I think that was an *** backwards move but they know a lot of you guys will double dip (myself included if it’s a cool LE, a la TotK).

I don’t think it’s more powerful than Steam Deck either. Obviously it comes down to the developers and how they optimize their games but the guy who leaked everything accurately claims the Switch 2 is on par with a base PS4. DLSS will surely help too.

 

[Nike Jordan]

Let's hope it's not going to be a hassle to get a console at launch.

0 chance it’ll have better specs and than the deck I’ll be happy if it’s comparable

 

[the coolness]

I'm happy to put down a deposit on a pre-order but I'm not loving this launch model. Especially if there'll be a Pro version in a couple of years. Or a Zelda themed one

 

[swendro]

Mouse functionality in the joycons is interesting.

 

[nice jahb]

Sakurai-San is in hiding too...

I can't wait.
