While I'm yet to really appreciate any major benefit of the Nintendo Switch 2's GameChat feature, I'm nevertheless always hardware-curious. I'm a tech nerd; I want to know what companies are shipping and how good it is. With that in mind, let me sound the alarm with a warning: do not buy that cutesy Switch 2 camera shaped like a Piranha Plant. If you buy it, to be blunt, peripheral... Read more ›
