Welcome Tour is the Switch 2's welcome surprise, and might even be worth your 8 quid


Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour is better than it looks - whether it really should be a paid-for game is another question.

Across the screen - where your little visitor might slip and skid if you run too fast for too long, like they're darting across an ice rink - there's also a wonderful visit into the opposite Joy-Con, its golden guts fully on display. From my slightly extended but still brief time with it, it feels like Nintendo has created, if not the most wildly entertaining, at least the most spiritually accurate take on visiting an actual museum dedicated to a games console. If it weren't for all the Joy-Con waggling I'd ideally play this thing with my arms clasped behind my back, head slightly cocked to one side, assuming the official position of the museum attendee.
