SHOWNOTES: On the long-awaited conclusion of our Season Finale, Dan joins us again for a very special Game Launch episode! Having covered Nintendo Switch 2 launch title Mario Kart World in Part 1, we review the console in depth in Part 2, as well as cover the myriad of first- and third-party releases since launch. From Nintendo's own new releases (yes, even the Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour), to remasters or enhanced ports exclusive to the platform, cross-platform titles optimized for Switch 2, the new Nintendo Classics library of GameCube games (plus Mario Paint on SNES), Switch 1 titles with free updates or otherwise improved on the new hardware, and even game demos, there was plenty for us to talk about and more, only a couple months after release! Thank you to all of our listeners, fellow podcasters, and content creators for a successful Season Seven of Collateral Gaming, and stay tuned for our Anniversary Special Let's Play! of Four Swords, post-season content, and our Season Eight Premiere featuring Fallout 4!
