Chapter 4: How does the Nintendo Switch 2 compare to the original Switch?
Look at that old stupid ass thing. Vomit on my dick right now.
Terrible. Where's the magnet?
Wow, it's a different texture. This is ASMR. Oh, this is good. Oh, here we go. USB on top and bottom. Love that.
Oh, this feels good to watch. Okay, yeah, this is exactly the leaks. Genki knew everything. Wow. Look at this trash out here. Oh, look at them buttons, Tim. Is there a C on it?
There's the C button, but there's no C on it.
It's not imprinted in it yet, Tim.
Yeah, we're still building.
We're still building. Ich dachte, das war die SD-Karte, die da rauskommt. Schön. Ich liebe es. Ich liebe es. Krustet euch alle.
Here we go. Let's fucking go. Oh my God. Yes. Man, it's crazy how much this looks like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It's not though. It's not though. This is new everybody.

Chapter 5: What are the expectations for Mario Kart on the Nintendo Switch 2?
Yeah, but give me a month. Okay. Physical and digital.
Okay. Alright. Damn, it is so much bigger.
Oh, that's correct. Wow. April 2nd.
Series of hands-on events held around the world.
nintendo switch 2 experience i love how much info we just got at the end of that i was just like hey look at all the things the leaks are right hey here's what you actually want to know april 2nd the countdown begins everybody yeah bless i want to start with you it's very interesting getting this trailer in this way because we always talk about like switch one and how that was revealed and how's that going to play into the way the switch 2 is revealed i think one of the things that we didn't talk about is the fact that's that switch one reveal had to sell us on the core premise of the switch
Oh Gott, danke Gott, Pharrell ist nicht hier.
You know we did it. We didn't do it and he wasn't here. I don't know what the hate is about it.
So we didn't need him.
Of course you don't really need to resell us on that because everybody understands what the Switch is. So how do you talk about the Switch 2? You start off with the Switch and show all the intricate details of wie es sich verbessert, wie es sich verbessert. Ich liebe den größeren Bildschirm. Es sieht leckerer und moderner aus.

Chapter 6: What are the implications of the Nintendo Switch 2 for third-party games?
Was ich von dem Trailer bekomme, ist, dass es ein besserer Switch ist, mit Upgrades dazu. Und bis jetzt bin ich gut damit. Ich will sehen, wie das Software aussieht. Mario Kart, das ist etwas, mit dem man anfangen möchte. Es sieht aus wie Mario Kart. Ich mag den Artstyle, die Charaktere sehen anders aus.
Wir müssen frame-by-frame schauen. Aber ich kriege mehr Mario-Wonder-Vibes aus dem Artstyle. Ein bisschen mehr Charme. Aber ja, spannend. Das ist jemand, der fast jeden Tag in Mario Kart 8 geschaut hat. Andy Cortez. The Switch went through puberty, Tim. Wow.
Now it's sexy. The Switch no longer goes shopping for school clothes with its mother, and now it's going to Abercrombie. And you have those shirtless Teenagers outside. And it's like, why are these 16-year-old dudes shirtless outside? Did you ever see them last, back in the day?
I know exactly what you're talking about.
What are we doing? I love the larger Joy-Cons. I love just the larger Switch, period. Because I never really loved the way that the actual joysticks felt on the Joy-Cons. Hopefully these feel a bit more substantial and not just, hey, here's the ...easier portable Version of how it should feel. I hope those feel a little bit better. But overall, it's a lot sleeker, obviously.
I think the color sort of section inside of the Joy-Con sticks out further than I assumed it would. I'm fine with it, though. It sticks out a lot more compared to the way that... die alten Joy-Cons aussehen, wenn du diese kleinen kräftigen Knöpfe auf dem Topf hast, die wirklich nur funktionieren, wenn du das Accessoire hast.
Nun, es sieht so aus, als ob sie sich in das Accessoire eingelassen haben, als sie das Maus-Ding gemacht haben. Also denke ich, es hat sich nur größer ausgeschaut, als sie das Teil angetan haben.
Gut, okay. Ich könnte falsch sein. Sehr, sehr nett, super schlau. Ich meine, es ist einfach ein guter Weg, es zu präsentieren. Das war's für heute. Bis zum nächsten Mal. Tschüss.
Very exciting. Very cool. One thing I think I got confused by. Do we catch that the April 2nd isn't the release date? It's a Nintendo Direct date. Okay, cool. I saw it and thought release date and kind of forgot all about it. I just want to call that out. No, this looks rad.

Chapter 7: What are the thoughts on the new hardware design of the Nintendo Switch 2?
Nur ein größerer Screen, hoffentlich bessere Grafiken, coolere Technik oder was auch immer. Und ich bin gespannt, was dieses Ding tatsächlich sein wird. Das ist die gewöhnliche Verrücktheit, dass wir in der Nähe sind, wie wir sind, in Bezug auf das Hören und Lesen von jedem Geräusch, reden über sie jeden Tag auf Games Daily.
Du schaust dir das an und bist so, okay, cool, das ist das, was wir erwartet haben. Really wish there was more. I wish I was getting all the games right now to talk about them and I was getting the rundown. I wish April 2nd was today. This is nice that it's official. This is cool that it's official. I'm very excited to get into what's actually happening in that Direct.
I'm so stoked about this. They're giving me everything I want here. It's the Switch 2. They're not playing around. They're literally just giving us the thing we love that they did right, but better. And hopefully that's OLED. Not confirmed or denied. Don't love the bezel here. I don't hate the bezel here. I'm not too mad at it. I feel like it's okay here.
But what would go a long way for that bezel is some OLED. Then it would just freaking disappear. Love the black look. I think it's the right move to show, hey, this is growing up a bit. This is the evolved version. This is new. Reminds me a lot of the more colorful PS1 going to the PlayStation 2. People taking it more seriously. I think that that's going to happen here with the Switch 2.
Great way to differentiate from the Switch 1. I feel like they're entirely avoiding the Wii U problem that we've been talking about forever. Not just in title, but also just in look. How bigger it is, I am pretty surprised by. I know it's leaked. I know that's what everyone's been talking about. But this is big. This is now Steam Deck levels. This is a, if not bigger...
Ich meine, es sieht großartig aus, und wir werden es hoffentlich irgendwann bekommen. Ich hoffe, dass es bald sein wird. Ich weiß nicht, ob es ein Steam Deck ist. Es ist nicht so groß wie Steam Deck. Es ist nicht so groß wie Steam Deck. Das ist großartig.
Acht Inch ist die Größe des... Entschuldigung, des... Remote Play... Playstation... Portal. Help me out, thank you. Das ist großartig.
Das ist ein ganz großer Bildschirm. Wie ein Maxi, wie ein Bildschirm sollte sein. Dann kannst du in den Legion Go-Territorium kommen, Andy, wo du denkst, wow.
Ja, das ist verrückt. Acht Inch, glaube ich. All these events are going to kick off after that Direct. So New York, April 4th through the 6th, Los Angeles, April 11th through the 13th, Dallas, April 25th through the 27th, and Toronto, the 25th through the 27th. They're also in Europe, Melbourne, Asia, etc.

Chapter 8: What games are expected to be launched with the Nintendo Switch 2?
Also bin ich hier glücklich, dass es wie alle Verlagerungen mit Dingen ist, von denen ich glücklich bin, außer den alten. Mario Paint. Ich meine, das ist cool, aber wirklich, in diesem Tag und Zeit, ich weiß es nicht.
Ich glaube, es gibt eine gute Menge Indie-Games, die wirklich davon profitieren können. Ob du Ballatro spielen möchtest, wie du es auf PC spielst, oder wie die Golden Idol Games, wenn du das auf Switch spielst. Das mit einem echten Switch-Maus-Ding könnte eigentlich gut fühlen.
Vielleicht wird es auch SteamOS runten.
Verdammt.
Hast du das auch gedacht? Nein, ich glaube nicht. Aber ich denke, es ist wie Civ 7 oder solche Spiele. Ich denke, es macht viel Sinn.
Ich denke, es ist wie Call of Duty oder First Person Shooters.
Ich meine, ich denke, Metroid Prime. Ich denke, es ist wie slower based. Ich verstehe, dass es viele Dinge gibt, die man mitnehmen könnte. Ich denke, es fühlt sich gut an. Ich denke, es fühlt sich gut an, wo auch immer du bist, du spielst portablos auf dem Switch. Ich denke, wenn du ein Switch auf einem Flugzeug spielst, was wirst du tun? Drück das Ding raus und verwende deine Nachbarn?
Ich würde es ehrlich gesagt lieber, und ich weiß, dass viele von ihnen auf IR-Sensoren abhängig sind, aber ich würde es lieber so wie die LG-OLED-Motoren kontrollieren. Ich würde es lieber als ein Maus-Kursor oder so, ähnlich wie die Wii.
Ja, ich weiß. Ich würde nicht überrascht, wenn wir diese Funktionalität immer noch bekommen. Ich liebe, dass die Joy-Cons größer sind. Es ist schwer zu erkennen, ob die Facebuttons größer sind oder nicht. Von den kleinen Bildern, die sie hier zeigen. Ich glaube, dass sie es sind. Ich glaube, dass sie es sind. Und ja, die Hall-Effect-Sticks, hoffentlich, das ist definitiv ein großer Erfolg.
