Well, I’m still going to order one. And probably the camera too so I can see my Mario Kart friends and I can see each other when we play. Probably no additional accessories though.

I don't understand what it gives you over playing MarioKart with your friends on a Switch 1?

[–] CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemdro.id 4 points 1 week ago

He's probably looking forward to open world hangouts with friends. I'm looking forward to that also.

[–] Weebdeluxe@ani.social 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah what does it give us except for... access to Nintendo exclusive games and maybe the best portable experience available for that price?

We’ve been playing MK8 for years. Looking forward to something new.

Also looking forward to not having to have a FaceTime session going on phones at the same time we’re playing.
