Oh man, so you know how it goes when there’s a new gadget coming out. Like, anticipation mixed with a touch of chaos! Anyway — wait, let me get back on track here. Nintendo’s pulling out all the stops. They just threw some juicy updates our way for a bunch of games on the Switch 2. I got totally sidetracked, but let’s dive into this!
So, there’s this website that keeps track of all things Nintendo, right? It just got an update (mind you, at the crack of dawn) letting us know the Switch 2 hits the shelves on June 5. With it? A bunch of game updates that, well, maybe were expected… maybe not. Who knows.
Here’s what we’re looking at:
-
Framerate Boosts: Remember that super annoying lag in ARMS or when things sloooowww down in Pokémon Scarlet / Violet? Not anymore! Supposedly, it’s all silky smooth now. Fingers crossed it’s not just marketing fluff, right?
-
Sharper Graphics: They’re fixing up games like Captain Toad and Super Mario Odyssey… visual eye candy, they say. But hey, visuals can be subjective—like that time my friend swore broccoli rabe was delicious. Hmm, jury’s out on that one.
-
HDR Wizardry: This one’s a game-changer, or so they claim. Stuff like The Legend of Zelda will pop in HDR. Picture this: colors so vibrant they nearly jump out of the screen.
-
Sharing the Gaming Love: Ever wanted to flaunt your Clubhouse Games skills with a pal? GameShare’s doing its thing on a bunch of titles. Captain Toad’s in on the action too, for whatever reason.
- Mouse Support on Steroids: Joy-Con 2 transforms, seemingly, into a mouse. Game Builder Garage is the test dummy. Not sure about you, but my palms are already sweating.
And there you have it. A slew of updates for June 5th—just in time to plunge into the Switch 2 madness. Or as I like to call it, "another reason to procrastinate on all the adult stuff."
