I think my overall take with the Switch is they didn't miss on any of the things
00:00:02
that we were hoping for. 1080p 120 Hz display. It's an LCD. 7.9 in 7.9 in HDR support. 120 Hz. It'll do 4K out to the
00:00:11
dock to a TV. The new controllers are massively updated. First of all, I think my favorite feature is the magnets, how
00:00:16
they connect to the side. They added a button which is the C button. It has two USBC ports so it can be docked. And then
00:00:22
on that top USBC port, you can plug in the Switch 2 camera. The Switch is a very social console. And there are
00:00:29
people who have switches who are not in the same place and they can still take advantage of all playing the same game
00:00:36
and making it feel as social as possible. So you point this camera at yourself and a lot of Switch 2 games
00:00:42
will will actually have a feature built in where it will like include your picture over your, you know, your video
00:00:47
game stream as you're playing the games. For those wondering, $449.
