It's kind of the only real Switch 2 game, honestly a weird launch situation. Feels odd to buy a switch 2 without Mario Kart. BOTW is cool and the updates are nice but I can play that mostly fine on the legacy switch.

Well, it was the only switch 2 game. Bananza is actually pretty cool.

I mean who would buy the switch two if they have the switch one already. That seems wildly excessive

[–] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

Lots of people, me included, but you're not wrong.

Here's my situation. The og switch battery is fried. I have a mario kart cart for the switch and when I was deciding which v2 option to get, I went without the mario kart world since I think I have played mario kart a handful of times and none of my family or friends have it or play it.
