Nintendo Swap 2: Each new function and sport noticed within the announcement
SHARE

Thank goodness Nintendo formally unveiled the Swap 2 on Thursday morning, so we will lastly speak about it with out resorting to rumors and leaks.

Nintendo pulled the curtain off its latest residence/handheld console, and identical to everybody anticipated, it is a beefier, extra highly effective Nintendo Swap. The 2-minute reveal trailer is tantalizingly brief on substantial data on the console, sadly. Apart from a take a look at what it seems to be like and a tease of 1 new sport, there is not a lot to speak about.

However let’s speak about it anyway. Right here is all the things new you’ll be able to see within the Nintendo Swap 2 reveal trailer.

Mouse-like Pleasure-Cons with a mysterious new button

What’s that new button all about?

The large query with each new Nintendo console is “what weird stuff do the controllers do now?”

With the primary Swap, the “gimmick” (if that is even the precise phrase) was that they may detach from the bottom unit and be used both as two separate controllers, or collectively as one. That seems to nonetheless be the case with Swap 2, however there are some very noteworthy variations this time round. For starters, they connect to the system magnetically now, versus sliding onto and off of a rail like they did earlier than.

That is only a minor procedural change, although. Past that, there is a mysterious new button on the precise Pleasure-Con beneath the house button. It is unmarked, although the web has taken to calling it the “C” button. I’ve seen hypothesis that it may have one thing to do with voice chat, and that might make some sense, however nothing is confirmed but.

Mashable Mild Velocity

The true juice, although, lies in the truth that the Pleasure-Cons can apparently be used like pc mice. The video is not tremendous express about this, however at one level, the Pleasure-Cons slide throughout a flat floor, with the half that attaches to the Swap 2 face-down. Over the previous few weeks, there have been plenty of rumors suggesting there could be mouse performance on the brand new Pleasure-Cons, and I am unable to consider any purpose for Nintendo to incorporate that bit within the video if that weren’t the case.

Greater show

That is an enormous boy.

This isn’t surprising or something, however the precise unit seems to be to be 15-to-20 p.c greater than the unique Swap. A part of that’s the show, which we do not have exact measurements for but. Nonetheless, it seems to be large in comparison with the previous Swap, with thinner bezels that make it extra of an edge-to-edge show than what the unique Swap had.

Not rather more to say about this, actually. That display seems to be lots greater and higher. Hopefully it is sharper than 720p this time.

A brand new kickstand

That appears much more sturdy.

This can undoubtedly get buried beneath the extra substantial and thrilling adjustments, however the Swap 2 has a full-body kickstand now as an alternative of the flimsy little factor the unique Swap had. My launch Swap’s kickstand broke after like three months, and I do not assume I ever even used it as meant. This one will presumably be extra sturdy.

Mario Kart 9, presumably

Final however definitely not least, there was a really fast look at one new online game on this trailer. Sure, only one, and it isn’t a lot.


Tweet might have been deleted

That’s positively a brand new Mario Kart sport. Take it from me, an individual who has performed like 300 hours of Mario Kart 8: That is completely different. Donkey Kong has been redesigned to look extra like he did in the film, there look like extra racers on the observe than earlier than, and the observe itself seems to be very giant. There’s additionally a roadside diner within the form of Yoshi’s head, which is lovely.

I actually, actually want Nintendo had proven us extra, as there wasn’t a single new or shocking factor on this video. We’ll simply have to attend till April 2, when Nintendo has confirmed there can be a Direct to clarify and increase upon all of this.
