DK Bonanza was fun. I just pre-ordered Star Fox: I played the SNES one as a kid a lot, but I never played the N64 one that the Switch 2 one is based on.
The new Mario Kart is also great, and the larger screen is great too. At 45 I don't need to use reading glasses when I use Virtual Console, but on the OLED Switch I usually use reading glasses with Virtual Console.
- bix6 5mo agoWe didn’t love DK or Mario kart when we had my friends Switch 2 one weekend so it still hasn’t felt worth it yet.
- musicale 5mo agoSwitch OLED is still great, as the Switch 2 display is something of a downgrade. But the Switch 2 shines for Nintendo gaming on a 4K display and for actually being able to play PS4-era games well on a handheld. I am not completely sold on Mario Kart World's open-world driving (vs. Mario Kart 8's track-only approach), but it's still a lot of fun, plays well, looks fantastic, and scales up to 24 players for LAN games and tournaments.
- gwbas1c 5mo agoI mostly play Grand Prix mode in Mario Kart World; the open world is a nice way to kill time between races online. That being said, try to remember your inner 8-year-old when playing open world. I would have liked it a lot more as a kid than I do now.
- musicale 5mo agoThe long open-world drives between tracks aren't particularly thrilling.
- musicale 5mo agoStar Fox 64 is great (you can play it now on the Switch, as well as the SNES version, via Nintendo Switch Online). Do a barrel roll!
