PEOPLE: - Chris Hackney, age 42. The English voice of Rauru in Tears of the Kingdom. QUOTE: Hackney: Please tell Nintendo (and all other developers/studios/manufacturers) that you want physical only, on-the-cartridge/disc media. [link to a Nintendo survey] To be clear, I mean "physical only" when it comes to these stupid key card things. Digital? Fine. Physical? Better. Key card? The worst of both. Also, physical boxes with a download code? EFF. OFF.

PEOPLE: - Kouichi Kawamoto. Game System Director for Four Sword Adventures. Producer over development of the Switch 2. QUOTE: Kawamoto: There were a lot of ideas for the name, and we really struggled to find the right one. We even considered ideas like “Super Nintendo Switch.” However, Super NES, which came out after the NES, couldn’t play NES games. Since Switch 2 can play Switch games, it didn't feel right to use the same naming convention as Super NES.

PEOPLE: - Takuhiro Dohta. Technical Director of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. Software Development advisor for the Switch 2. - Kouichi Kawamoto. Game System Director for Four Sword Adventures. Producer over development of the Switch 2. QUOTE: Dohta: We don't want anybody to be at risk of any unwanted consumption [of Nintendo Switch 2 game cartridges]. We have indeed made it so that if it enters your mouth, you'll spit it out. I do not advise that you do. Kawamoto: When the Nintendo Switch was being developed, I did lick it once, but never again. I can't believe that other people are trying that.
