Cliff<p>Checked out Mario Kart World this morning on the Switch 2. </p><p>I haven't played Mario Kart since the original Wii console, many, many years ago, so yes, it's been a while and I was having to learn everything all over again.</p><p>Super fun game, especially the online stuff where you have up to 24 players in total. </p><p>The highest I managed to finish was 9th, which I feel isn't too bad.

Xoa Gray<p>Even with all the negative stuff going on around the Switch 2, it's still flying off the shelves. </p><p>Gamers just don't care at all. And that's sad. Because it will 100% open the door for other game console makers to use the same kind of tactics that are horrible for gamers and game preservation. </p><p>If you want a future with no physical media, where you don't own anything, and any game can just stop existing at any time, this is how you get it. </p><p><a href="https://phoenix.masto.host/tags/videogames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>videogames</span></a> <a href="https://phoenix.masto.host/tags/Switch2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Switch2</span></a></p>
