Considering it’s a console that didn’t launch with a brand new Zelda game, it’s fascinating that the Switch 2 is somehow still the Zelda-est console Nintendo has ever made. That’s what it feels like anyway. Just look at the Nintendo Switch Online offering, which covers everything from the original Zelda on the NES to absolute classics like Link to the Past and Ocarina as well as weirdo off-shoots like the Oracle games, Four Swords and the Minish Cap.

While many of Switch 2's launch games are merely ports of existing games, the platform currently excels in one key area - racing games. For my money, there's nothing better than a system launch packed full of arcade racing action and, in that sense, Switch 2 doesn't disappoint. Mario Kart World is the system's biggest title, while the original arcade version of Ridge Racer also makes its appearance - finally another system launch with a Ridge Racer game! Yet perhaps the most impressive racer on the system thus far, and also one of the most enjoyable games period, is Fast Fusion from Shin'en Multimedia.

When I saw that the hands-on demo for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds at Summer Games Fest was a full hour long, I was sort of taken aback. An hour? For a kart racer?
