With Mario Kart World coming in as Nintendo's new most expensive launch game ever, it feels sad to know that what looks for all the world like a bundled title is in fact a premium download. Even worse, though, is that after playing it for a few hours, I think it's basically a must-buy for new Switch 2 owners who like their tech.

With the new Nintendo console released (see our Switch 2 unboxing), you would expect the Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour to be a packed-in title showcasing new features. And yet, there's the rather unwelcome fact that you're charged for what could be described as an interactive instruction manual.

Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour is designed as an introduction to the new system. The game takes players on a virtual tour of the Switch 2’s exterior (and some of the interior), to showcase all of the big and small decisions that were made by the designers.
