Episode 928: Luigi, the Ultimate Italian – Radio Free Nintendo

The Switch 2’s finally here, and guess who’s back? Yep, it’s Jon and James. Like some kind of ghostly duo creeping around. Did you enjoy the quiet while they were gone? Well, too bad, they’re here again. Somehow, this makes me think of dogs and carpets. Dogs on carpets are just a disaster waiting to happen. Hair, pee, that smell—ugh. Seriously, why do people even bother? Hardwood is where it’s at. But, um, where was I? Right, Switch 2.

So, they kick things off talking about this shiny new hardware. James went all out and got the Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour (00:11:33) just for you folks. He’s got all the nitty-gritty details—challenges, facts, quizzes, and yeah, how much it costs. After the break, they dive straight into the game everyone and their grandma is buzzing about: Mario Kart World (00:59:33). It’s early days since Switch 2’s barely been out—less than 24 hours when they recorded this—so, yeah, early impressions.

Oh, and GameCube games on NSO for Switch 2 (02:06:23)—they’ve got thoughts on that, too. Plus, NES Bionic Commando popping up in Street Fighter 6. On Switch 2! And those nifty new ways to post your gaming screenshots and videos. I swear, Switch 2 is like the gift that keeps on giving, right?

Honestly, finding it hard to keep up with all this. I might just skip the tech talk and watch more Mr. Iguana matches. Priorities, man.
