- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Its amazing how the more I hear about the Switch 2 the more I don't want it
It's so weird, I was actually kinda hyped seeing they improved almost everything on the original Switch. Hardware-wise it seems good. But the software after really just became this turn-off? The Mario Kart gimmick of riding between tracks looks dull, the 24 players is cool but offset with the wider tracks it seems less impactful, and then all the prices...
I'm holding off I think. Maybe when there's better games out it becomes a better deal. Or when Nintendo does an OLED refresh (if we don't have a Steam Deck 2 by then that is).
What did they improve? They didn't even adress the stick drift peoblem and dounled down on it.
Screen size, resolution, the APU, storage size, controller connector, buttons, the lot. They did state that they worked on the stick drift issue and found ways to mitigate it, but they weren't specific unfortunately.
I'll save y'all some time. The intervewee said,
is not an exorbitant price
It's an interesting product
Yeah, this feels like $9.99 is not an exorbitant price. It feels like a good value for what you're getting out of the product.
