I'm a big Switch stan but this presentation was weak as hell

I got excited about Galaxy 2 coming back and that was it. Knew Hades 2 and Metroid were coming, they still look great

Virtual Boy is fun to see but also novel as hell

The whole thing felt like a slog

Fire Emblem was a nice end and I predicted that coming

That virtual boy is dope and I don't care if it sits on a shelf as a decoration in the game room.
I always loved the design of it and it brings me back to one of the first moments that made me feel like we were in the future the first time I tried it.

This was the first General Direct of the Switch 2 era, and I think it was lackluster.
The pacing was also pretty bad.

I’m very disappointed in how Nintendo is handling Switch 2 upgrades. There’s a crop of Switch games that can use utilize the extra power of the Switch 2, and plenty of gamers would go back and replay.

I give this a 6/10 at best.

Pretty weak for me personally. Will pick up Galaxy 2 at some point, cool Metroid got a date, and the art style for the new Yoshi game looks good.
