TheNintendo Switch 2is getting a surprisingly mixed reception after its first dedicated Direct.
While fans are loving the third-party reveals, many are lamenting the lack of first-party launch titles.
Some fans are delighted by the plethora of gimmicks, while others see them as being just that.
Otherwise, their box will either be empty or feature their gameplay.
Nintendo’s initial showcase ofGame Chat was a disaster, in my opinion.
It is perhaps telling that Nintendo has not yet showcased Game Chat working on a handheld.
However,perhaps the worst issue with Game Chat is that it is incredibly laggy.
It is a shame, as,in theory, Game Chat is a cool idea.
However, much like theSwitch 2’s most disappointing features, it feels destined to fail on arrival.
Essentially,Game Chat is laggy so that it isn’t too taxing on your own gaming experience.
Well, I suppose it is enjoyable for people who have incredible internet connections.
Of course, all of this begs the question of whom any of this is for.

However,who is actually going to want to watch someone else’s gameplay while playing themselves?
Even if Game Chat ran perfectly fine, your eyes can’t be in two places at once.
It is possible that the technology will get better and that people will find more uses for Game Chat.
However, I’m extremely doubtful.
