GameCentral has played all of this year\u2019s biggest games for Nintendo Switch 2 <\/a>and they make the console seem like very good value for money.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve probably already watched Wednesday\u2019s mammoth, 60 minute long Nintendo Direct<\/a> and by now you\u2019ve begun to form your own opinions about the next generation Switch 2 console. There was a lot to think about and we\u2019re not sure we\u2019ve fully digested everything yet, and we\u2019ve actually played the thing.<\/p>\n

We watched the Direct at a European press event in Paris<\/a> and then immediately after got to play the more imminent games in a three hour hands-on. Mario Kart World<\/a> looks and plays amazingly well, while also being a very different experience to the series norm. Donkey Kong Bananza<\/a> is a wonderfully over-the-top action game and Metroid Prime 4<\/a> seems to be worth the very long wait for its release.<\/p>\n
