The Nintendo Switch 2 is here: all of the launch news
Nintendo made the original Switch’s game cards taste terrible, coating them in a bitter chemical called denatonium benzoate. So we had to know... do Nintendo Switch 2 cartridges taste better? Time for a taste test! And while we’re at it, why not add a button battery coated in the same stuff, a Nintendo DS cartridge, and a 3DS cartridge too? Don’t try this at home, kids.
Taste test: Switch 2 vs. Switch vs. 3DS vs DS, which cart tastes best? Seriously: Nintendo admitted it makes its cartridges taste bad, coating them in a bitter chemical called denatonium benzoate. It's the same chemical added to antifreeze and some coin cell batteries so kids don't swallow them, and Nintendo's been using it for years. But just how bad is it, and which tastes best? #nintendo #switch2 #gaming #gametok #techtok
