Things I love about the Switch 2 Direct:

• Mouse Joy Con is awesome
• GAMECUBE ON NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE EXPANSION PACK! WITH SOUL CALIBUR 2!
• HOLY SHIT THE PEOPLE WHO DO HITMAN ARE DOING A 007 GAME!
• Open World Mario Kart?!?!?! WHAT THE HELL?
• 3D DK
• The Switch App becoming a companion app for BOTW/TOTK Switch 2 Upgrade pack? That's pretty sweet. GPS and QR code sharing of designs? Pretty sweet.
• Madden, EAFC, WWE2K, and NBA2K are coming back to Nintendo. Don't think they've been on in a while if my memory serves me correctly. I don't plan on getting them on Nintendo but glad they're gonna be on there.
• Didn't know if they'd go 4K. But damn glad they did.

Things I'm kinda confused about:

• Mario Kart as the big launch title? Kinda surprising.
• No Mario or Zelda game at launch. Hell that DK game wasn't even launch I think it's summer?
• That weird walking around on the console thing to learn about the console is a paid online game? That better be like $5 or something, unless it had a ton of stuff that wasn't announced in it.

Thing that are somewhere in-between

• That Wheelchair Basketball game? NGL it looks kinda cool. Don't know if it's regular retail level game but pretty cool. May have been better as part of a Switch 2 Sports.
• Price point? I think it's pretty good all things considered.

Honestly... if I'd be a Canadian shop owner, who's selling these consoles, I would make damn sure to only sell them to citizens with Canadian IDs or other kind of papers that prove they live in Canada.

I'm not getting one. The price of the console is fine. Paying 90 dollars for a physical game? Hell no. That is what is putting me off. Those greedy asses aren't getting my money.

That would be rad . Sadly it's all big box stores selling consoles n I doubt best buy or GameStop give a hoot. But I agree

It's almost like tanking the economy and forcing tariffs on imports hurts the consumer huh
