Episode 27.5 - BONUS - Is Nintendo making a HUGE mistake with the Switch 2?

Nintendo’s Switch 2 directly finally arrived and we have all our initial thoughts and reactions in this bonus episode!

Joining me this week are Ekamy and game dev Zoe Straw as we discuss the specs, the games (which look awesome, and some of which are queer!), and the very controversial prices.

Could Nintendo be overestimating what fans are willing to pay? Are the games exciting enough to make us overlook the huge price increases? Tune in to hear our thoughts!
