Julius Posted yesterday at 02:55 PM Posted yesterday at 02:55 PM Digital Foundry have released a special based on hands-on impressions from the Switch 2 Experience: Quote Fresh from visiting the Nintendo Switch 2 showcase event in London on April 11th, Tom and Rich sat down with Oliver to discuss their hands-on experience with the hardware, sharing details on the ergonomics, the screen, the controllers and much more - and then it's on to the games, including the big Nintendo heavy hitters, Street Fighter 6, Hogwarts Legacy, the GameCube emulator and much, much more. Excited to dig into this later! 33 minutes ago, Hero-of-Time said: I would love to see the gifting option make a return from the Wii days. It was such a great feature and I'm baffled why modern consoles don't allow for it. Absolutely. I'm not much of a PC guy (closest I really get is the Steam Deck), so I use it much less than the PS Store and Nintendo eShop, but the Steam store runs circles around the current console storefronts, despite there not really being anything to it that couldn't be done on these storefronts. I much prefer gifting my younger brother a game on Steam for his birthday (if there's nothing else he wants) than giving a gift card/sending funds to do so on Switch. Just seems like they've all phoned it in with the bare minimum on that front for a while now – but with how they've talked about wanting to make changes to it, the Switch 2 eShop is easily one of my most anticipated features of the Switch 2.

This is the first time we've ever had a new console launch without a 1st party game without some sort of significant single player mode available on Day 1. DK Bananza would be it, but that's not coming out until the month after launch day. Luigi's Mansion 4 would be it, but that's not coming out until... 1 hour ago, Hero-of-Time said: I would love to see the gifting option make a return from the Wii days. I'm sure you would, you ingrate.
