Video Description
Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week we speak with Nintendo Voice Chat host Logan Plant about visiting the new Nintendo Store in San Francisco, and interviewing Nintendo of America President Doug Bowser. In that interview, Bowser explained the benefit of having game-key cards that don't actually have the game on them, and we discuss how Nintendo is setting up the Switch 2 for success in its first year. Plus we have last week's poll results. And don't forget to secure your tickets to IGN Live, our second annual in-person event being held in downtown Los Angeles next month. Get tickets at ign.com/live and use promo code NGCW for a discount. #IGN #Gaming #Nintendo
