Yeah, I don't think I'm going to be using the chat feature very often. If ever. Though, admittedly I do see some opportunities for streaming with that kind of thing.

So large game screens live video shown on screen from 4 different people.

Err I guess it's neat.

C button pulls up a chat menu. There's a web camera too? And videochat? Is the camera optional? I don't want it.

I beat scratching ma nuts too much.

This doesn't seem like the launch of a new system, it's almost like a normal switch direct.

Camera is optional, switch online subscribers only for use.

Welcome Tour reminds me of the kind of games you get with Windows. I wonder if they've got a minesweeper clone.

I think the switch 2 edition games are going to be too confusing for a lot of people. It's definitely going to cause grief with more casual gamers who don't pay close attention to everything.

Switch 2 edition games

Upgraded visuals, features.

Mario party

The camera appears to be the new gimmick. Only it's sold separately and I don't want it.

Zelda switch 2 versions.

HDR, higher resolution.

Looks like a bog standard upscale to me.

Is this the first modern Street fighter game on a Nintendo console since the Super Nintendo?
