<p>Nintendo has spent most of its time in the past twenty years differentiating itself from the competition — the GameCube was really the last Nintendo console that went up against other consoles in a meaningful way. Based on the success of the Switch, the Switch 2 feels like a moment where they feel so wildly secure in their position that they’re going to try and eat Sony and Microsoft’s lunch if they can manage it... and maybe try to take on the PC and Steam while they're at it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does Nintendo have the chops to come back from the "we just make wacky toys for kids" zone and truly go head to head — and succeed — against the current gaming landscape?

<p>Usually when a company has literally millions of eyes on it at once, they want people to walk away with a positive impression — that usually means talking about the good and omitting the bad. So while Nintendo’s Switch 2 Direct was largely great, it’s the stuff they didn’t talk about that’s starting to come to light and bring a harsh wave of reality to their usual world of whimsy. Here are fifteen things Nintendo didn't tell us about the Switch 2 during the initial reveal.</p><p>---</p><p>Feel free to follow me elsewhere!</p><p>Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/bb.wavelengths.online</p><p>Mastodon: https://idlethumbs.social/@brendon</p><p>Blog: https://wavelengths.online</p><p>---</p><p>Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Hmt3yHTovQmEcqzhZdl8T</p><p>Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wavelengths-with-brendon-bigley/id1677660078</p><p>Pocket Casts: https://pca.st/x6p7ni3r</p><p>And more: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/itswavelengths</p><p>---</p><p>Chapters:</p><p>0:00 - What Nintendo didn't say</p><p>0:34 - The Price and sticker shock</p><p>4:26 - How do we use mouse mode comfortably?</p><p>6:44 - The new Pro Controller is better than I thought</p><p>8:08 - Game Share works on Switch 1</p><p>8:52 - File sizes are huge</p><p>10:36 - Switch 2 is 10x as powerful as Switch 1</p><p>11:58 - Hall Effect sticks confirmed</p><p>13:20 - Not all Switch 1 games will work</p><p>15:38 - Japan is getting a cheaper Switch 2</p><p>16:36 - The preorder requirements are wild</p><p>18:56 - The UI is largely unchanged</p><p>19:07 - Battery life is "worse"</p><p>19:55 - Game Key Cards vs physical games</p><p>21:18 - Most USB-C webcams will work</p><p>22:06 - Some games will get free Switch 2 upgrades</p><p>22:41 - Bye bye, thanks for dropping by!</p><p>---</p><p>⏆</p>

<p>I've already played a bunch of great 2025 games so far, and it's only February. I think we all knew this was going to be a big year — hello GTA6!! — but I wasn't anticipating being so blown away so early on. Here's a video about some standout games I've played so far that released within the past two months — NOT including Civilization VII which I completely forgot to mention, even though I like it!!Stimulation Clicker: https://stimulationclicker.com/---Feel free to follow me elsewhere!Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/bb.wavelengths.onlineMastodon: https://idlethumbs.social/@brendonBlog: https://wavelengths.online---Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Hmt3yHTovQmEcqzhZdl8TApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wavelengths-with-brendon-bigley/id1677660078Pocket Casts: https://pca.st/x6p7ni3rAnd more: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/itswavelengths---Chapters:0:00 - 2025 is already wild1:05 - Warriors: Abyss5:23 - Tyrant's Realm7:07 - FlyKnight7:51 - Ruffy and the Riverside10:21 - Tokyo Xtreme Racer11:51 - Keep Driving13:32 - Avowed18:41 - Stimulation Clicker19:26 - Upcoming Games---⏆</p>
