Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour review


Our review of Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour - a genuinely weird piece of software.

To test HDR, a concept I have struggled for years to understand, largely because I zone out whenever anyone mentions it, I got to trigger a bunch of fireworks and then pause as they sent constellations of sparks scattering across the sky. | Image credit: Nintendo The other thing: when my friend first bought a Mega Drive back in the early 1990s, he spent hours just looking at it, at how beautiful it was, at how unusual its shape was, how sturdy its plastic was, how rounded its edges were, how lovely its type that read out 16-Bit or whatever was. So it feels a bit weird to see Nintendo banging on about HDR and, in the later moments of the stamp rally, diving inside the Switch 2 console itself and letting you walk over its battery and its heat channels and all that jazz.
