Nintendo Switch 2 missed out on the recent launch of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, but Sonic series producer Takashi Iizuka says that the game will use the “full capability” of the system.

Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter review for Nintendo Switch
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Taioh in Reviews, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments

We have a jump in graphics, a rehash of mechanics, and plenty of beefy consoles to experience it on. Does the game play well on the original Nintendo Switch? Does the game hold up to the original experience?
