I do wish the S2 had an improved UI, it’s not bad but it’s not as modern as it could be
Skullghost
I do like that they’ve added a noise for the system waking up. A very much needed feature in my opinion
theScrewhead
Holy shit pressing the C button is one of the most irritating sounds I’ve *ever* heard in my life.
cleanmickie
The majority of those are kind of annoying lol all sound a bit too “sharp” is the only way I can describe it

The NSO button almost sounds like the start of a Discord call notification, lol.
impostinator
Now give us back menu music.
TheGirthiestGhost
It’s both bland and somehow incredibly irritating at the same time lmao
ThisOneTimeAtLolCamp
It’s like going through an Android phones settings to set a message/notification sound. Lol
Cabbage_Vendor
The C button sounds like a clown honking.
mcrsteven
Can we actually get a nice UI this time?
tvnr
No
mufcordie
R2D2 sounding ass
timespaceoblivion
That C button sound caught me off guard. Not a fan at all.
Euscorpious
These are awful.
Walnut156
Oh boy that c button sound is rough

I like all the new sound effects and stuff. I just wish the home menu and all the sub menus weren’t the same as switch 1. I hoping for it to be changed idk. Maybe it’s just a me thing that wasn’t much of a fan
the_real_junkrat
Interesting marketing strategy
Sillhid
I hope this time we can disable the system’s sounds.
ipsen_castle
A nice upgrade but they did the bare minimum for the interface if we’re honest
JustAnotherSuit96
Not a single one of these sound good, and a handful stand out as just plain awful
dragn99
Okay, but we’ll have the option to turn them off, right?
Especially the start up sound. It’s not as jarring as the Playstation beep, but seriously, it’s the call for my wife or kid to suddenly need me right this second.
illQualmOnYourFace
I’m gonna optimistically attribute this to my phone speakers, but these sound really tinny. I hope they’re a little warmer sounding on the actual system.
devonathan
For the love of Christ we better be able to turn these off.
Jayeky
It’s a shame how alive these sound effects are just to have a bland overall menu
xNinja-Jordanx
Its a small thing, but I really liked how the old Shop SFX sounded like a Mario coin. It was thematically accurate.
JamKaBam
The most interesting one is that the console now makes a sound waking up when it’s in the dock.
SLAV33
Disappointed they changed the profile sound.
nilghias
I hope they keep the old noise for clicking on your profile, it scratches my brain good
poeshopowner
The sounds remind me of the DS/3DS for some reason
SHADOWSTRIKE1
Some of these are downright annoying.

Is it just be or do the sticks look significantly bigger? Like obviously they’re going to be bigger, but they look a lot bigger to me. Exciting.

That C button sound would be enough to make me never ever EVER use game chat so I don’t have to hear it. Nail on a chalkboard, seriously they couldn’t have done worse if they tried.
VOIDofSin
Anyone else kinda bummed that the UI looks the exact same as the switch
dataplague
Shop still 6 centuries to go through?
dope415
These are badddd.
wat3rstyl3
I swear to god if they only have the same white and black theme I’m going to tweak…why is Nintendo so minimalist now it’s no personality
cloveinferno
Would it really have hurt them to have some really subtle background music 😭 even just some white noise
VitaBoy11
Fucking annoying
UnmakingTheBan2022
It all sounds like Apple notification tones.
XmasRights
Nintendo do amazing sound effects – would love to watch a documentary on the thought process behind all of them
devici
I love the sounds of Switch 2, but to be fair, 3DS experience was something special. No comparison.

Y’all are so bitter about some damn sounds lmao
robophile-ta
Not the fucking clown horn on the C/GameChat 💀
Leggo213
I like that it has a startup sound when you wake it from sleep
pickle_sandwich
The virtual game card button sounds like a can of soda opening.
