I disagree.

Nintendo's home consoles have always had an innovative-iterate cycle.

NES: innovate
SNES: iterate

N64: innovate (4 ports, big 3D games, analogue controller)
Gamecube: iterate (a better, disc-based, N64)

Wii: innovate (despite being a technical iteration of the Gamecube)
Wii U: attempted innovate but was still ultimately an interate

Switch: Innovate
Switch 2: Iterate

Back in those SNES days I remember making a paper board game version of the original Mario Kart. 😎 When we later bought the N64 we sold the SNES & all its games which fully funded the next system's purchase.

We don't sell the old ones anymore. But man those are good memories - begging my parents for extra chores to earn extra money.

Even though we're planning the #Switch2 for Xmas... I think it's important that the kids contribute & feel ownership too.

THIS WEEK: A dangerous amount of Xenoblade Chronicles X DE, some Final Fantasy V, and the Playdate.

We're also forced to talk about the ever-evolving tariffs, and a palate cleanser of putting people in the Monkey Ball.

It's Episode 922: Monkey Mouthful Mode

A slide being projected on a screen in a room with a beige wall, with Super Monkey Ball box art on the wall beside it. The slide compares a Monkey Ball and the Nintendo character Kirby. The left of the slide has a picture of a Monkey Ball, with a caption above with a green checkmark: "Inside: Horrifying imagery; Why's the tongue there; Nightmare fuel." The right of the slide has Kirby with this caption above: "Outside: Brand consistent; Cute, toy-worthy; Everyone loves Kirby!"

I’ve watched a lot of reactions to the #Switch2 #NintendoDirect, and apart from the price gaffes, this presentation was nearly pitch perfect. Nearly every game, plenty of which didn’t hit for me, made some people thrilled out of their minds!

Especially how they orchestrated the final three, Duskbloods, Air Riders, and Bananza. It’s a shame that the discussion was pulled away so fast, because this Direct was among their most well executed for generating hype.

Lots of gamers out there venting about Nintendo’s pricing for #Switch2 games, etc. - mostly justified.

I’d like to use the opportunity to complain about Sony & #PS5

- PS+ cheapest plan is $80/yr USD - required for cloud saves. But only works for primary user. In order to get cloud saves need to pay $80/yr per household member?? (& they don’t offer a family plan & no method to backup saves to USB drive)

- PSVR2 controllers cannot be purchased separately. If you break one, you’re SOL

So, I managed to wangle a #Switch2 pre-order from a popular high-street retailer.

I bought and sold two Switch (1s) back in the day, but hopefully I can make this one stick.

I must admit I'm a sucker for a new MarioKart.

I've been awfully quiet because I've been having an absolute blast with Promise Mascot Agency.

Just as brilliant as the demo, but now with no time-limit. Oh, and everything kicks ass - the visuals, the story, the music - all of it.
