INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Super Mario Party is coming to the Nintendo Switch but alongside the new party gameplay, there appears to be an interesting new use of the
Switch hardware for multi-player.
It appears you&ll be able to modularly connect at least two Nintendo Switch consoles to expand the size of
the screen you&re working with
In gameplay it seems actions will be able to seamlessly move from one screen to the other after users draw where the connection between the
consoles are.
Mario Party has long been a Nintendo franchise that pushes the technical limits of the systems in their most gimmicky
It seems that the Switch will gain some cool applications of the controllers& motion capabilities.
This really seems like the idealized use
for the Switch controller system and while Mario Kart 8 offered a lot of tabletop fun for using controllers on the tiny screen, Nintendo is
really letting loose here bringing multiple Switches together and all of the controllers that they can handle.
How much a feature like this
would actually be used in real life is a little quizzical but we&ll find out when the game launches October 5.
