Very cool. Did you have a Switch already?

Our house has also received a Switch 2. My son wanted it for his birthday. He gifted his Switch OLED to his sister, and they're figuring out how to play Mario Kart 8 while at different houses (since she's moved out now).

There's still an original Switch sitting here with Breath of the Wild, waiting for me to finally pick that up and play it. Thing is, I don't know if I ever will, because I keep having other things that need doing or else I'm too tired to do anything but watch a show. :(
Prayin' for a 20!

BOTW is SO GOOD man I'm thinking about replaying it on my S2

But yeah Mario Kart looks insane, once I get it all set up I'll report on it

Apparently Mario Kart World is supposed to be really good! Want to check that one out myself, but not getting a SW2 this time.

It's basically GTA: Mushroom Kingdom

It's a free roaming world that lets you explore and play minigames and just well, drive. Tracks are all interconnected and in elimination mode you actually drive from area to area.

There's still traditional Kart Tracks too if all you want is racing.

The Switch 2 also upgrades previous games so that they run with higher frame rates and other graphical treats, so you can replay stuff like BotW at a solid 60fps

I would wait for a price drop though $700 is a big chunk of change
