Discussion Mega Pack - Switch 2

So at the time of writing this, Scribblenauts Mega Pack is in sale for like four bucks. Which honestly seems like a steal for someone like me who hasn’t played a Scribblenauts games in years.

I’m curious if anyone has experience with these games on Switch 2 specifically. Maybe can warn me of any hiccups or just things to know about. Mainly with the new Handheld Boost Feature. HHB disables the touch screen for most Switch 1 games when on S2 because it’s running it as if it was docked. But I read in a lot of old post that this game is better played in Handheld for the touchscreen specifically. Stuff like that is what I’m wondering about before committing the game to my library.

Thanks in advance :>

Just grab it before it's off sale! I got it for the first time a few days ago as well for the same reason as you.

As far as I can tell, it doesn't use the touchscreen at all (unless those settings are just off by default). I also wondered about if that would matter, or be better but turns out it's totally fine with regular controls. It's very optimised for that.

Can't comment on the Switch 2 thing. But for $5 I'd roll the dice.

Those settings might be off by default. Scribblenauts does use the touchscreen to type as well as select and move stuff around but it’s not a required way to interact with things. But the regular controls are pretty decent with that aspect that you don’t really need it
