It's been a whirlwind 24 hours (depending on where you are and who is counting) since the Nintendo Switch 2 launch, and there's plenty for players to do with one of the most highly anticipated consoles in years. So much to do, in fact, that our Nintendo Switch 2 review is still in progress. But there's one handy new addition you might not be aware of: the speech-to-text GameChat feature for talking with friends – wait, did someone just say fuck? And did Nintendo then actually print that?
It's the age-old tale; give people the option to speak to a device that will listen, and they're going to curse at it. Just ask the chat log history between me and our home's first Alexa. Of course, Nintendo is so family-friendly that you might think it'd have made a workaround for this, no? Some sort of censoring on its prized Switch 2? Well, no – looks like you can curse up a storm at your brand-new Switch 2 and it'll translate straight into GameChat.
