    NBA 2K24 is less a continuation of what made the series good on Switch and more a downgrade of what has come before it. Even with how smoothly this one plays on the console, with some clean animations and a sprinkling of improvements to MyTeam being the real MVPs, all of this is overshadowed by just how watered-down this year's entry feels. With none of the new game modes making the jump to Switch apart from the disappointing Mamba Moments, a severely lessened MyCareer and a model that continues to be plagued by microtransactions and long load times, the 2K franchise on Switch has never needed more of a boost. If you are after a basketball game on the go, last year's offering is a much better option.

    Predatory Marketing Practices- If you played NBA 2k23 on the switch and are looking for fresh new content, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. I created anPredatory Marketing Practices- If you played NBA 2k23 on the switch and are looking for fresh new content, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. I created an account on this website right now just to write this review. Feels like 90% of the new content is only available on the new PlayStation and Xbox (next gen) versions of this game. However, NBA2k24 is being sold to PC and switch (current gen) consumers as if it’s the same thing.

    Current gen is so so disappointing. To me, it feels like a blatant money grab after being so hype for 2k24 and getting the same game as 2k23 with updated rosters. Save yourself the $70 you’d spend on this game (and $50 for each build because in career mode they instantly make you a starter with no backstory and you’re a 60 overall). It’s funny how over the years they’ve slowly transitioned the most played game modes onto online servers with heavy marketing on their currencies to incentivize micro transactions. Also, how many games do you know that have a battle pass and also cost over $60 to buy initially. This is setting a bad precedence for the future.
    If you look at the company that owns 2k and Rockstar Games, Take Two Interactive, they recently acquired the mobile game developer Zynga (which has many games that rely on micro transactions as their main source of revenue) for 12.4 billon USD. And in an GameSpot interview the CEO of Take Two mentioned “ "We are fielding a game for 100% of the audience and monetising 10% or so, perhaps a bit more, often a bit less. And it's our view that we ought to be monetising 100% of the audience.” They value the gamers who spend money on micro transactions over the ones that only spend 69.99 or a one time cost. It’s clear to me that Take Two values monetization tactics and pay2win over the creation of a better gaming experience. I feel bad for the developers who are creatively stifled and forced into creating content that serves the pockets of their bosses’ shareholders. Sorry for the long read and I hope my review helps others make better decisions than I did by purchasing this casino-esque basketball game. Going to refund this asap.

    Edit- I refunded the game. Remember that you vote with your wallet. I will not support Take Two Interactive as long as they continue churning out trash like this.    … Expand
