Mario Kart World MSRP is $79.99 USD.

Currently i don’t see why i would invest so much besides owning it out of principal. The OG released with 2 exclusives or 3? That would be a whole other story but with Mario Kart alone?
Yeah, it’s basically Mario Kart World and then Donkey Kong Bananza shortly thereafter.
As a reminder Switch 1 had the following first party titles in its launch window:
- BOTW
- Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
- 1-2-Switch (meh)
- Snipperclips (meh)
- ARMS (meh)
- Splatoon 2
So knowing how those games went, and excluding the meh games. Switch 2 is really only missing 1 first party like Splatoon.
Also Metroid Prime 4 is in the middle space of being a crossover title.
I thought Arms was a blast! Like Mario kart or super smash I did a good job of walking the “competitive, but fun” line.
Otherwise I agree, only Splatoon2 was really unique to the switch. Everything else was released on the WiiU.
BOTW was also a crossover Wii U/Switch title.
Very true. So this launch is actually pretty on par with switch 1.
With the mouse controls I am really wondering why we didn’t see even a tease of Splatoon 4.
Another reason I can think of is that usually launch versions sometimes have vulnerabilities that are harder to patch (which let you jailbreak, if you’re into that)
