Nintendo Switch 2 Game-Key Card Overview https://buff.ly/r2t7Tnv Game-key cards are different from regular game cards, because they don’t contain the full game data. Instead, the game-key card is your "key" to downloading the full game to your system via the internet.

Have to think Mario Kart, Metroid, and DK are all good candidates to show gameplay tomorrow during the treehouse.

Maybe that roller hoop game as well.

Yeah, I'm gonna need that BOTW upgrade and yes I said BOTW. I haven't even scratched the surface of Tears yet. Plus windwaker?

They better take this money

I haven’t finished either game so I’m happy about this.

That mouse control is going to be a game changer.
It looks gimmicky but the option is going to be used by a lot of companies

Fucc it, I'm buying.

Haven't played and put serious time into a Nintendo platform since the Gamecube.

I know people are still sour on the prices (and rightfully so) but I still got my retail plug.

Everyone in the chat is spamming the same message "Drop the price!"

Yeah this just looks like the switch Mario Kart, it does have better IQ and I know its open world and all that but when you are actually racing its just...Mario Kart 9 but at 80 bucks
