Engadget’s Sam Rutherford has had some hands-on time with the new console after Nintendo revealed all the details of the Switch 2 around Switch 2 this week. In this episode, he talks about the big improvements in the new hardware (especially the 1080p, 120 fps screen) and why he didn’t really miss the older Switch OLED. Additionally, Sam also discussed his time with Mario Kart World, a new half-open world version of Nintendo classic racers.
In other news, we delve into the latest updates to the Tiktok ban, and we discuss how the Trump administration’s tariff push will affect the technology community and everything beyond.
