Welcome back to another Nerd Alert Podcast EPISODE 27! Main topics tonight: Max and Tyler Discuss the current state of the gaming industry. Pricing rising, budgets getting larger, quality decreasing, and so much more.

Topics:

• Switch 2 specs

• 1080 lcd

• Up to 4k 120 game permitting doc mode 

• Also 120 fps for 1080p and 1440p

• Cooling fan to help with performance

• Magnetic joy cons

• They have larger buttons and now a c button

• New discord like feature on the switch where you can screen share but quite frankly it looks like butt cheeks performance anyways so seems like a waste

• 256gb storage

• Expandable with micro sd express cards

• Assume the games are going to be bigger and that is why larger base storage, you will probably still be better just buying a 1tb sd and loading everything there

• HDR support

• 7.9 inch screen 

• Finally have 2 usb c ports

• One above and one below the console

• According to Nintedo website: Approx. 2 – 6.5 hours *These are rough estimates. The battery life will depend on the games you play.

• SPECS HERE: https://www.nintendo.com/us/gaming-systems/switch-2/tech-specs/

• Game sharing

• Allowing you to share select games with people around you on their switches to play multiplayer without needing everyone to have the game (maybe they doing this because their games are getting way too pricy)

• Still no exposure to what the RAM is and the CPU/GPU is just claiming to be custom by NVIDIA, not sure why nintendo wants to hide this info

• Price Points

• Console 450 or 500 bundled with Mario Kart

• Here is what the stream deck goes for. $400 for just the standard LCD screen but specs seem somewhat comparable and a dock for it is like 80 bucks first party, so if I had to guess, Nintedo definitely used this as one of their influences for price points, this might even help project what a potential OLED could be one day https://store.steampowered.com/steamdeck

• Anywhere from 60 - 90 dollars

• We know that Mario Kart World will retail $80 for digital 

• https://x.com/geoffkeighley/status/1907438577438302617

• Donkey Kong Bananza will be $70

• The guess right now based on some screenshots here and there is the the digital versions can be around  $10 less than physical though it does differ across the different currencies

• Is this now they new standard for first party games? Going 20 dollars over the normal AAA title price, will everyone just follow now and thank Nintendo for being the bold overlords to make the first move

• Games Announced (New, enhanced switch 2 versions and older games just coming to the switch 2)

• Mario Kart World

• Kirby Air Riders

• Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom getting Switch 2 edition versions

• Kirby and the forgotten land + star-crossed worlds 

• Super Mario PArty Jamboree expanded version and mouse controls

• Pokemon Legends Z-A switch 2 editions with improved performance and framerate

• Nintendo Switch 2: Welcome Tour

• Drag x Drive (mouse control game playing basketball in wheelchairs 3v3 style)

• Nintendo GameCube Games for the Swtich 2 via online expanded edition (games like The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, F-Zero GX, and SOULCALIBUR II) oddly enough sunshine will make an appearance eventually and then XD and Colosseum

• Duskbloods (FromSoftware exclusive to Switch 2 maybe itll be exclusive launch and PC later?? Doubts though get ready to emulate)

• Elden Ring
