SG 208 | SWITCH 2: Qué ha anunciado NINTENDO? + Precios y características
Episode notes
The episode organizes the Nintendo Switch 2 announcements and focuses on the controversy surrounding its prices. It reviews the presentation, the bundles and the June 5 launch, as well as priority pre-orders and the cost of the console with Mario Kart World. It also details the hardware: a custom Nvidia processor, a 7.9-inch 1080p LCD screen with HDR, 256 GB of storage, backward compatibility, connectivity and redesigned controls.
The discussion covers GameChat, the microphone, the optional camera, the Joy-Con mouse function and the new controllers, while expressing reservations about the performance shown during the Direct. For games, they discuss the features and price of Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza and updates for Switch titles, along with the Game Keys format and its reliance on downloads.
They also report on Eidos-Montréal's situation and the cancellation of a new Deus Ex installment. The final section debates whether the initial catalogue, future exclusives, and the price of games and accessories justify buying the console at launch, also comparing it with Steam Deck.
