I'm probably gonna wait for a lite version. I mainly play the switch handheld anyway.

It's kinda crazy that "THE" launch title for S2 is Mario Kart. I get it's sold like gangbusters on Switch, but I thought for sure DK Bananza was going to be a launch title. Ends up it doesn't come out for a month after S2.
Is this the first Nintendo console (outside the NES) to launch without a Mario or Zelda game?
I didn't realise Bananza wasn't a launch title, although it's close. Gamecube didn't have a Mario or Zelda at launch. Its big first-party title was Luigi's Mansion. Not sure about handhelds, if they all had a mario at launch.
I’m so excited for camping out! From camping for the Wii with my future wife to the Wii U and Switch with a great friend, I’ve created some great memories along the way.
Switch battery aside, multiplayer in line should be a hoot! I wonder if I should bring a projector to cast onto a wall!
The great thing about USB-C is that it's so easy to charge anywhere. Get a power bank or two and you should be good to go.
You should stay home. Everything the Switch 2 has shown me has been disapointing. I WANT to like Switch 2. I just don't.
Also why isn't it called the "Switcharoo"???
Iwata is missed.
I don’t understand your comment. Are you suggesting I should stay home because everything the Switch 2 has shown you has been disappointing?
Let me try your logic: you should camp out for a Switch 2 because I’m excited!
I get that not everyone is excited for a sequel system that is a massive pile of money. I also get that piracy talk is a lot of commenters’ only interest. I’m excited and enthusiastic. Why not make your own comment chain instead of jumping on one that clearly has a different vibe than you are going for?
Also, can you explain the Switcheroo joke? It’s like the idea of a bait and switch, right? I’m trying to figure out what you felt you were promised that now leaves you feeling like this is a switcheroo.
