Nintendo 2’s post-direct information Dump has been full of small juicy details, and Nuggets continue to arrive. Now it seems, for example, that the new Nintendo console will do things a little easier for shared screenshots and game clippers.
Switch 2, like the original switch, presents a dedicated button to capture screenshots and game in the game. It was a welcome addition in Switch 1, but also a little faff; Sharing captures consisted of saving them on a memory card and connecting it to a secondary device to download, load them on a social networks account (until the function was removed) and then downloading them on their device or scan in QR codes to take them to their device. Just exhausted things, certainly, but not exactly without problems.
Switch 2, however, seems to have simplified the process if a small infographic hidden on the Nintendo website is something to happen. On a page that presents the Nintendo Switch renewed application (previously known as the Nintendo Switch online application) it is striking to the process of sharing screen and video captures using Switch 2; When selecting the option ‘Load the smart device’ in the console album, it is possible to send captures from the console directly to the application, apparently without complicated intermediate steps to stop things.
The catches are stored in a new gallery of ‘screenshots loaded and videos’, accessible from the application’s start screen, which can show 100 screenshots or videos of the last 30 days. From here, screenshots and videos can be saved on your intelligent device if you want to keep them indefinitely or share on social networks. So, if you are the type of person who regularly goes to a frenzy that captures the game, you could end up saving seconds literal, if not minutes, out of your day. Ah, and Nintendo points out that the function is available without an online Nintendo Switch subscription.
Together with the exchange of simplified captures, the Nintendo Switch renewed application will continue to offer specific game services, including Splatnet 3, NookLink and the newly announced Zelda Notes for the Editions of Nintendo Switch 2 of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. In addition, the application will still allow users to see which of their friends are online and register new friends using a QR code, although, in particular, the new Switch 2 Gamechat system means that the application’s chat functionality of the application will not be compatible with the exclusive games of the new console.
So there you have, another switch 2 business to reflect. And there is much more information about the new Nintendo console in Eurogamer’s rounding of everything announced (and then) today.
