Nintendo Switch 2. I have thoughts.
0:00 - Monster Hunter is like Jell-o. There's always room for more. Unless you're full. Or just don't like it in the first place.
28:14 - Nintendo's expensive new console has expensive new games!

6:58 PMLee ShowronHey
6:59 PMaddictedtochaosHello
6:59 PMLee ShowronYeah, let’s talk about how people are spamming lower the price
7:01 PMaddictedtochaosThe price of the console I’m fine with, it is around what I expected. The price of the games gives me pause.
7:03 PMJared Kniselyfun fight, doesnt try to be hard
7:22 PMSheekagoHey all
7:24 PMSheekagoRaidou looked interesting. I hope they release a demo
7:26 PMSheekagoI don't like that they're charging $80 for Mario Kart World. Donkey Kong Bananza will be $70. That's not including the stupid tarrifs.
7:27 PMLee ShowronNow the pre-order of delayed
7:28 PMLee ShowronI hope they don't get higher
7:28 PMSheekagoI don't even want to look at mine.
7:28 PMeathdemonsadly the switch will now cost 600 dollors thanks to the dumb tarrifs
7:29 PMLee ShowronI’m just hoping the price stays the same
7:29 PMeathdemonthey should sell ecverything lol
7:30 PMSheekagoI'm around your age. So ignoring it.
7:30 PMLee ShowronI’m not worried about the price of the switch 2 games because I’m just gonna wait until Black Friday and cyber Monday when they have sales
7:30 PMeathdemonI mean it does have dlss lol
7:31 PMeathdemonwe are old
7:31 PMJared Kniselynintendo will probably realize that the majority of the world cant afford any of their games a yr into the launch
7:31 PMLee ShowronWhy wouldn't switch excite you
7:32 PMaddictedtochaosYeah, it was kinda dull.
7:33 PMLee Showronwhen I was a few exciting games like donkey Kong Bananza
7:33 PMSheekagoYou notice that the visually impressive games are the ones where the video got stuck? They didn't want us to see how poorly it runs on Switch Too
7:34 PMeathdemonalso the vods fine, so it was just the stream, nintendo should have just pre uploaded it lol
7:35 PMLee ShowronWell, you get what you vote for
7:35 PMeathdemonsadly our fellow contrymen refused to listen to us. all I can say is I told you so
7:36 PMSheekagoLee, not all of us voted for an orange stain
7:36 PMSheekagoWe need a do over button
7:37 PMSheekagoIt's hard to be excited for video games when we won't be able to afford them.
7:37 PMJared Kniselymy commit wasnt susposed to bring politics into the stream
7:39 PMSheekagoOr a more powerful butt plug
7:39 PMJared Kniselyi dont know what the plug is susposed to refrence
7:41 PMLee ShowronWell, they made a hand on version of the switch code switch light. Maybe they should make a TV version.
7:41 PMJared Kniselysomeone stays in his house too long XD
7:42 PMSheekagoWarioWare: Rhythm Heaven cross over
7:43 PMaddictedtochaosTo be fair there were a million people watching, traffic likely caused the issues.
7:43 PMLee Showronmaybe you should ask Nintendo to make you a TV version of the switch 2 with all the handheld stuff taken away. Then it might excite you.
7:43 PMaddictedtochaosThe fact that Cyberpunk 2077 is going to be complete on a 64 GB cartridge is impressive.
7:47 PMaddictedtochaosI personally would love a strictly TV version of the Switch and Switch 2.
7:49 PMSheekagoYou don't take your Switch to bed?
7:49 PMLee ShowronWell, long time ago I went a lot of vacations I needed handheld but nowadays, I’ll go on vacation anymore so I stay at home and until useless for me because I mostly play on my TV
7:50 PMSheekagoDream Team
7:51 PMLee ShowronI usually play in bed and I don’t need hand help to do that because I could see my TV just fine
7:51 PMSheekagoI'm pretty sure Mario and Luigi: Dream Team is what you said last time
7:51 PMJared Kniselyis it grip thing
7:52 PMSheekagoI can't recline and play either. I usually just lay on my stomach and play that way. Of course, then my neck and back start hurting....
7:53 PMLee ShowronI'm using voice to text that's why it didn't make sense. I need to start typing
7:54 PMSheekagoMaybe they live out of their car?
7:54 PMLee ShowronI'm too lazy to type
7:56 PMLee Showronyeah, you don’t wanna see Paddington. They changed it just avoid it.
7:57 PMJared Kniselyit doesnt go away
7:57 PMJared Kniselyshe still trolls him in s2
8:01 PMJared Kniselysolo leveling show does cut a good amount of the side/character stuff out
8:06 PMJared Kniselyits a manhwa so may need to find a site for it or physical versions
8:07 PMJared Kniselyits the same
8:08 PMJared Kniselyi use a site called bato for manhwa
8:12 PMaddictedtochaos I figured it would be $400 on the low end, and $500 on the high end.
8:15 PMJared Kniselyif it wasnt mouse based i might pick it up
8:18 PMLee ShowronThey need an alternative for people that don’t have any table or anything
8:22 PMLee ShowronA lot of people said they won’t use the sea button because they have discord
8:25 PMaddictedtochaosAt the end of the day, I’ll buy a Switch 2, but will likely not be able to preorder, and will just have to get one when I can just walk in and buy it.
8:32 PMaddictedtochaosIt must have sold well enough, it got a sequel and is coming to Xbox and PS as well.
8:33 PMJared Kniselycould wait for the bananza switch bundle
8:33 PMaddictedtochaosNintendo doesn’t do price drops, but they do go on sale from time to time.
8:33 PMJared Kniselywhich should happen since its a first party
8:35 PMaddictedtochaosThe physical game keys are no different than what Call of Duty has been doing for years.
8:35 PMJared Kniselyi dont think 70 for physical is a bad thing
8:36 PMJared Kniselythose cartridges are probably around the 10 dollar range may be a little under
8:37 PMaddictedtochaosCapcom is doing that with SF 6, and Square is doing it with Bravely Default, and it is only 11GB.
8:38 PMaddictedtochaosYeah, I have a 512gb sd card in my Switch and it is almost full.
8:39 PMaddictedtochaosThe express cards, basically cost what regular microSD cards cost 8 years ago. 256 is $50, 512 is $99.
8:40 PMaddictedtochaosMy 512 in my Swith was also $99 but I waited till it was on sale for $60.
8:41 PMJared Kniselyknowing you it will be 4hrs
8:41 PMJared Kniselywhich a normal perosn would take 30 mins
