This is where the Switch really show it's cracks as if the previous 2K games weren't as bad enough. The focus on the PS5 and Series X|S had been Visual Concepts' goal since 2K21 as last gen versions had been getting different versions of 2K20 for 4 years now. Sports games in general are like this though. They had been doing that since the 90s, where they would have to put toppings on a vanilla ice cream to make it look different to the weaker guys while the more new and powerful guys get different flavors every year. Hopefully, this rumored Switch 2 can leap into the current generation so we'll have a better version of NBA2K games.
I will buy it but I think that 2k could have done more in this installment, taking its work a little more seriously and developing the content that other generation consoles have but with its graphical difficulties but well, it is 2k in itself, you can't ask for more. this is like fifa these deliveries
Just got it for 7 bucks on a sale an let me tell you, playing 2k24 on the switch oled on the go feels so wild in a good way 😂😂😂 I’m actually impressed at how close it feels like to the actual Xbox/playstation version like it’s a direct port from the Xbox one/ps4 2k’s but that’s just how it’s been for the past 5-6 years anyways to me so I could care less about the “next gen” experience e 😂 it’s so dope playing this anywhere definitely wouldn’t pay it full price though, I feel like the switch version should be 20$ max for each 2k since let’s be real no one is buying 2k on the switch to play park and online, and same goes for me, but if you still love 2k and want that fix on the go when you’re not home and trying to kill some time waiting for someone or something bruh this game is amazing, playing all time suns vs all time sixers rn and its amazing coming from a dude that grew up with a gameboy advance as his only portable console and thinking of the future of games being able to run on a handled like this, it’s dope af.
I hate how broadcast camera pans way out and comes back in, it’s ridiculous, nothing was wrong with the broadcast view for years so why tinker with it ?
@@gabriel1095 … Yes I did that and then the camera won’t pan properly. When you’re bringing the ball up from the backcourt the camera will view the front of the court sometimes so you can’t even see the player bring the ball up … It’s just a shame they had to mess with the broadcast camera like they did … But that does stop the panning way out like you said , but then creates the other problem …
@@gabriel1095… That’s cool, I’ll get it for the PS5 soon.. What about the switch version 2k24 if you turn off key zoom ? Does it still have the camera pan to the front court when you’re in the backcourt bringing the ball up ?
I got this game for 15 dollars back in March. 66 gigabytes digital is a lot. At least I’m not getting the next years game bc it’ll be 75+ gigabytes no cap
I really love 2k23, im actually still playing it because ive been hesitant to make the upgrade. Can someone let me know if the gameplay is the same or just as good as 2k23 and if its worth upgrading because if it is i want to take advantage of the discount in the eShop.
Honestly, 2K23 is more fully featured. My Career has an actual story and the Jordan Moments are awesome. I don’t really play online, so I can’t help you there. 2K24 is fun as a game, but is a bit lacking compared to 2K23. - Danny
I need help. I was doing a my league and I needed to do an update. I did the update and it's telling me there is not enough room on my SD card. It says I need 56 GB and my SD card is 64. So now I can't play the game. Do I need a new SD card,? Will I lose my saved game if I switch cards? I can't do anything
Yeah, 64GB SD card is pretty small for a Nintendo Switch (and it will not use full 64GB even, actual capacity will be like 58-62GB), I have already upgraded twice from 128GB to now 1TB SD card. NBA 2k is such a storage hog so the minimum SD card you need to get for it is a 128 GB, but if you plan on getting more games then I think you should probably invest on higher capacity like 400GB or 512GB. Saved game data are stored in Internal Storage, so I think they're safe
I’m confused.. is it possible there’s literally not enough space on my switch to download the full game? I literally have no other games downloaded and it’s telling me there’s not enough storage space to update the game.. I can’t use any features in the game except quick play
That’s correct. On the eShop page for the game, they put some very small text saying that an SD card is recommended or something like that. There’s something like 50 GB of data needed for the game. - Danny
@@TheFamicast it’s messed up, but saying it’s recommended is untrue, it’s a necessity.. rhey get away with it because technically u can play the game without it but u can only play quick play and nothing else, and even quick play is not updated properly cuz I go to the Knicks and jalen Brunson is a 78 lol I’m like what r these ratings from 2020 or something ? So I can’t even update the roster to their proper ratings without the sd card
Damn, man. I’m just a regular guy like you but the only reason I got an SD card for the system is because I play a number of different games for this channel. It’s is kinda scummy that companies with bigger sized games do this. At any rate, I hope you can at least get some kind of enjoyment out of the game! - Danny
@@TheFamicast Oh cool! It’s just the frame rate? Nice! I mean, no one is getting perfect frame rates across the board (across all currently released software, anyway), even _or especially_ on newer machines. Great Stuff, and thank you for the reply!
If you’re going to play online, it definitely feels like pay to win. For career mode and other stuff, it doesn’t really matter. That’s one reason why I never play much online with this series these days. - Danny
The story being gone makes this a must buy for me🤣🤣
Been playing 2K on the switch since 2K20. Only complaint is the amount of data it chews up.
What do u mean data
@@AidenStewart. storage. It’s a massive game for what it is
Only like the 2k18, 2k20/21 controls. Wish they would stop changing them
@@AidenStewart.Theyre like 80GB of space
A ton of wasted space on adding the wnba

Do you ever not complain?

I was hopin at some point 2k could figure out how to get rid of the input lag on the switch..guess its not possible
Oh it's possible they're either just dumb or don't care
They are wild to ask for $60 for basically the only thing that has changed is a roster update
That’s why I buy every year on Black Friday and pay $20
@@ced214 that’s smart
You clowns want a BRAND NEW game every year. Stfuuuuuuu
@@ced214 💪 💡
It's $10 right now.
2k if you’re listening release nhl and nfl on the switch!!!
Ken, you and me both are wishing here! I’d love some more simulation sports on Switch! - Danny
And how about a boxing sim?
@@mpicewe3023 yeah and a boxing sim for my buddy right here !!! Otherwise the switch is useless to real users

Good deal! - Danny

Hi guys. I am quite new to this game. My question is can i play offline? I mean can i take a team and play offline a championship?
Sim
Yeah
No colllege game on career
Hows online play? Last year was pretty laggy and made it hard to play smoothly. Always felt choppy. Have they fixed the connection issues?

Hi there, honestly, I thought I felt pretty similar to 2K23 but the Mamba Moments are nowhere near as fleshed out as the Jordan Challenges. - Danny
I’m on the same boat. Ima just wait for 2k25
@KidNamedNOVA i made the upgrade and am happy to say that if you enjoyed 2k23 on switch, you will enjoy 2k24 just as much.
If only they could put a fully functional wwe2k23 or24 on Nintendo switch 🤦🏽
Yes please it's a same I have no wrestling game to play on my switch
I miss the days of my psp and getting the smackdown vs raw 06 -2011 games.
@@wastedsoftly3899 try Wrestling Empire by M.Dickie if you guys like RPG wrestling
Don't listen too him it's Asf when you enter the park and play the jump shot is so dely 2k24 is 1/10 on Nintendo switch
I would of bought this game physically if it didn't have a 50gb update. Tf? Just put the whole game on a 64gb cart for $80
Its on sale for 6. So i copped it
That’s a fantastic deal! Hope you enjoy the game! - Danny
I got it for $5.99 too! Hope it's a Little different from 2k23
Thinking abt it rn 🤔
Yea in the switch store. I just downloaded it as well.
I wish they could add 3x3 or a Big 3
Personally compared to 23 it’s a downgrade but im gonna keep playing maybe it’ll get an update
Any good updates ?
Went on sale for 5.99
I redeemed some points and bought it for $2
Still no cloth physics for the switch version?!
How do you call a specific player to screen for you? What are the controls?
i have the game and when i bought it i saw that it needs a sd card and i was just to lazy to buy lol
I want a basketball game on my switch so I might get nba 2k24 but just for quick play and that’s it.
If it’s cheap enough to where you feel comfortable for just that, I’d say go for it. The gameplay is solid. - Danny
@@TheFamicast okay cool
i just got it for 10 bucks digital on the switch for the Kobe edition, u cant beat tht, #Peanskean

My Era is only available on next gen consoles, so unfortunately the Switch version doesn’t have it. - Danny
On sale for $20 rn but it honestly looks the same as 2k22 so ima stick to playing 2k22. I’ll just get 2k24 on the ps5
