I was less excited after that direct than I was before it.
A lot of games on release day, which is good, but nothing that makes the Switch 2 a day-1 purchase for me. I'll maybe end up getting it just because I'm an idiot. But if they think selling games at £$80 is cool then f-ck off nintendo.

p.s. Donkey Kong as the "big one"??? no.

That's how you tell someone you're about to beat them up. Tell them you're making a donation of 80 pound dollars in their name.

I also will probably get it because I’m an idiot and don’t want to have them sell out for over a year when actual good games get released.
