Switch 2, Dongles, and Haste | The Indie-Credible Podcast 26

In Episode 26, Xander and Jeff go full discussion mode on the rumored Switch 2 drama, asking the big questions:

• Not all Switch 1 games are compatible?

• What's up with the game card key—is it just a glorified dongle?

• With the Steam Deck already thriving, is there a real reason for a Switch 2 besides first-party Nintendo exclusives?

Then it’s time to dive into this week’s indie game picks:
