If you happen to’re sufficiently old to learn this, you are probably sufficiently old to keep in mind that, at its launch, the Swap supplied us all with just a few giggles as we discovered that its cartridges, tiny as they’re, had been coated in a yummy-tasting sauce that retains foolish animals and the like (who famously hate scrumptious sauce) from consuming your treasured video games and choking. Or worse, rendering your sport unplayable.
After all, being the thorough specialists that they’re, a handful of gaming journos, together with Jeff Gerstmann over on his YouTube channel, and our very personal Alex, throughout his Swap 2 unboxing, have been busy licking Swap 2 video games once more to seek out out if they’re coated in the identical sauce – which we consider is the bittering agent referred to as Denatonium Benzoate, as that is what went on the OG Swap carts.
This bittering agent is non-toxic, however you higher consider it tastes gross, as its complete level for present is to make you eject one thing out of your mouth post-haste!
So, we do know the Swap 2 carts have this bittering agent on them — it is already been confirmed — leaving the one level in doing this being the easy pleasure of seeing somebody attempt to management their faces as they recoil in disgust.
Jeff’s achieved a terrific job of restraining his horror, you possibly can test his effort out within the time-stamped video above. However how did Alex do? Effectively, let’s discover out.
Now, we’re off to test our native store for a duplicate of Mario Kart World to have for breakfast.
