by

Summary

  • Nintendo Switch 2 game cartridges will taste bad to prevent accidental consumption.
  • The recent Switch 2 Direct revealed exciting features and games like Mario Kart World and The Duskbloods.
  • Switch 2 digital and physical game prices are increasing, and some physical cartridges won’t have any data on them.

Although the games for the Switch 2 may receive numerous high ratings down the line, it’s unlikely that Nintendo will receive culinary accolades like Michelin stars for the quality of its game cartridges. Recently, Nintendo unveiled many intriguing details about the upcoming Switch 2 during their highly anticipated presentation. Among the revelations were key aspects such as the Joy-Con 2’s mouse mode and the new “C” button for GameChat. Additionally, they announced a host of enticing first and third-party games, including Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, Kirby Air Riders, and an unexpected multiplayer game from FromSoftware titled The Duskbloods.

Just like the initial Nintendo Switch, the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to carry both physical and digital versions of its games. The unveiling of the Switch 2 garnered largely favorable responses, but a slight setback followed soon after as it was revealed that Nintendo would increase prices for both digital and physical games on the new console. Digital Switch 2 games may cost up to $80, which is a $10 rise compared to the recent industry-wide price hike from $60 to $70, happening just a few years back. Moreover, the price of physical Switch 2 games will increase even more, reaching as high as $90 – a figure that has caused some unease among fans. To add fuel to the fire, it was also announced that certain physical Switch 2 games won’t contain any data on them, instead functioning as game keys without any content preloaded.

Hey there fellow gaming enthusiast! Here’s some intriguing info on the upcoming Switch 2 games. Seems like Nintendo has come up with a unique solution for those accidental mishaps – the cartridges will have a special coating that’s not exactly tasty to our taste buds. That way, if kids or even pets decide to give them a chew, they’ll quickly spit it out! As Takuhiro Dohta from Nintendo told GameSpot, “We want to ensure no one accidentally ingests these games. If it somehow ends up in your mouth, you’ll find yourself spitting it right back out.

Nintendo Switch 2 Game Cartridges Will Taste Horrible

Among the top three console manufacturers, Nintendo stands out as the one that caters primarily to children with its selection of first-party games and intellectual properties, along with its lighthearted, playful aesthetic. Interestingly, Nintendo is also home to the smallest physical game media in the form of cartridges similar to SD cards. Despite this being a characteristic of Nintendo for some time now, they’ve used various forms of physical media over the years, such as Game Boy ROM carts, GameCube’s miniDVDs, and Nintendo DS Game Cards, which were the predecessors to the Switch’s cartridges. On a positive note, given the compact size of these cartridges, Nintendo is taking additional precautions to make them less appealing for children and pets.

Our intention is to ensure no one unintentionally consumes anything undesirable. To achieve this, we’ve designed it in such a way that if you accidentally take it into your mouth, you will naturally reject it by spitting it out.
