And then obviously the next part of that, which is necessary for Nintendo, is making sure that it is... family safe. And I think being able to set the chat restrictions via the app, like my kid may just not use these or particularly, I like the idea that you may, um, uh, uh, you can only talk to people that I've approved, like an approved contact list of your friends, uh, Right?

So the parents know who they're talking to. And then the chat history thing is really good as well. I thought, I can answer some of what they didn't do, but I actually thought you'd be able to click on that and see a video replay of their chats. But what it's actually giving you is a call log. Like, you know, Jenny played with Johnny for like five hours or whatever in this game in voice chat.

So you can see who they've been talking to. But yeah, if they're going to introduce like fully, fully... fully featured chat apps and chat functionality, voice chat, video chat, screen sharing. There has to be that really robust parental guidance, supervision, control stuff. Is it just me, or does what's at the bottom of that screen look exactly like Discord? Are they using Discord?

That's a good question.

That's a good question.

If you can, I bet you they'll sell little clip-on cameras that will plug right into the USB thing on the top.

But I don't know. Because again, all of that stuff is processing on the Switch 2 side. And if it's not docked, then that's substantial. Background removal and stuff like that is substantial enough that you could see game performance.

And again, I'm saying that's all being done by the hardware and the software on the Switch. None of that's going to be in the camera.

for 50 bucks so I'm saying there is a bit of a I did appreciate that when they showed the screen sharing they didn't try to bullshit it like they made it they showed it for what it is almost certainly going to be which is a bit stuttery did you notice that like it wasn't completely fluid when they're sharing someone else's screen oh yeah it's really stuttery you're right which also looks like discord when you send it at a lower bitrate

In summary, biggest disappointments, price, screen, things I'm most potentially excited about. The biggest things I was happiest to see, the mouse joy cons and the magnetic joy cons. By the way, I still don't understand how the clip works. If it's magnetic, how is a clip releasing it?

it doesn't demagnetize it it's a really strong magnet if you've ever dealt with a really strong magnet yeah like you can make them really fucking strong so they're not going to snap off even with like really robust you know because you're doing this you know sometimes when you play you don't want them snapping off but the magnets are going to be strong to hold them on so I don't understand what the clip part of it is is there still a physical clip I don't know or maybe I don't know

Oh, the magnet is activated by an electrical... Okay, so it's an electromagnet, which is cool. So when you press that button, it's just going to demagnetize it. I like that. I like that. Yeah, fucking magnets. How do they work? I don't want to talk to no scientist. It's magic.
