We are back with the latest episode of *This Week in Switch 2*, featuring an exciting lineup of discussions. In this episode, we dive into Donovan’s **Pokémon Legends: Z-A** review, share our hands-on impressions of the **ROG Xbox Ally X**, reflect on the charming **Close to Me Pikmin** short, and much more.
You can read Donovan’s full Pokémon Legends: Z-A review [here](#), and check out our detailed ROG Xbox Ally X hands-on impressions article [here](#). Additionally, we are in the process of building out a free, interactive Pokémon Legends: Z-A game map on Shackmaps to help players explore and enjoy the game even more.
*This Week in Switch 2* is designed to provide a platform for all Shacknews staff members to share their thoughts and opinions on Nintendo Switch 2 hardware, games, and the operating system on a weekly basis. Instead of rushing to post early reviews, we’re taking our time with both the Nintendo Switch 2 and **Mario Kart World** to ensure that the content we provide is insightful and useful.
By sharing our latest impressions regularly, *This Week in Switch 2* keeps you updated throughout the review process, rather than staying silent until everything is finalized.
We’re also excited to announce that the podcast is now available in audio format on all the usual platforms. Make sure to follow *This Week in Switch 2* on Spotify, iHeartRadio, Amazon Music/Audible, Player FM, Podchaser, and Apple Podcasts to listen to new episodes as soon as they drop.
We’ll be back next week with another episode, so keep it locked on our *This Week in Switch 2* topic page for all the latest.
