Woke 2: Good, Switch 2: ???

This week Nathan, Chris, and Luke break down Nintendo’s long-awaited reveal of the Switch 2 – although we use the term “reveal” loosely. After months of speculation, we now know… what it will look like. And it looks like a Nintendo Switch! Some people, Chris included, are disappointed by this. Nintendo used to swing for the fences with its hardware ideas, but now it’s navigating a world of its own creation – one filled with Steam Decks and Asus Rog Allies. Can its Apple-like iteration strategy keep it at the head of the handheld pack, or is it already falling behind simply by conforming? Then we discuss the impending TikTok ban, which thanks to interventions from both outgoing president Joe Biden and incoming president Donald Trump, we don’t think is actually going to happen, but which has produced the funniest possible outcome in a bunch of people migrating to a comparable Chinese app. After that, we turn Luke’s brain to mush by discussing Elon Musk’s gamer beef with a Twitch streamer. Finally, we wrap up by designing our own Switch 2. Credits - Hosts: Nathan Grayson, Chris Person, and Luke Plunket - Podcast Production & Ads: Multitude - Subscribe to Aftermath ! About The Show Aft…
