Amazing console with a bright vibrant screen! Mario Kart World is a bunch of fun that I didn't think I would have while playing. Battery life could be better, but it's understood for this level of performance.

TLDR: This console is a triumph of human imagination, ingenuity, and just a testemant to having a good time with multimedia that is more about people and stories!
In an era of low-effort and innovation games, Nintendo is still on top of their game as though the competition is fierce. The most important plus is the games… This console is currently the highest performer in its individual niche, but even when there is “better hardware”, if the games aren’t as good, it means nothing. The first-party games are overflowing with joy, wonder, and creativity. The second and third party games do actually join this party to be able to get into the special occasion that is this console.
One caveat is the prices… However, I recommend getting second-hand physical copies of temporary games and reselling them after you ahd your fun. I saved hundreds of dollars this way, especially thanks to the backwards compatibility.
Finally, and least importantly, ergonomics are better than ever, though I still recommend getting grips for the joycons. The battery capacity goes for a while (a while that is unhealthy to play in one sitting), so I recommend you not worry about battery capacity and instead focus on what you do and imagine during your breaks from the special world that this console is a magical door to.
I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys visual and musical arts, as well as anyone who wants to get into Nintendo!

Disappointed that it is not an OLED display. Feels like a step back in comparison to the switch OLED. The battery life is also bad.
The only positives are the slightly larger screen size, larger joy-cons, and quicker load times.
Hard to recommend if you already have a Switch OLED.

The switch 2 is a much more capable successor to the switch 1. So far I have enjoyed playing hallow knight, silksong, DK Banaza and pokemon ZA. It has even made pokemon scarlet/violet run smoother. I'm eagerly awaiting my friends to buy one so we can use the game chat feature.

Oh, this system is amazing. It’s awesome. I like the big screen and I like the magnetic controllers and like how you can play the old games from the Nintendo switch that’s awesome.

Do you want to play Nintendo games? Did you like the original Switch? Do you want to experience that again with some minor upgrades? Then great news! This is that.
Pros:
Biggest screen yet on a Nintendo handheld.
Impressive sound.
Magnetic attaching joy-cons feel solid.
Backwards compatible with old Switch games
Cons:
Not an OLED screen.
The joysticks are not Hall Effect (so drift will most likely occur again).
Game prices are expensive.
In summary it's a good product. I like it overall.

It's more than what I expect, I change its resolution, it's bigger, the interfaces are faster, the switch games look much better, the console doesn't suffer from heating, not even when you put it in the dock, the battery is excellent, it lasts like 3 to 4 hours, it's perfect to play

I just upgraded to the Nintendo Switch 2 from Best Buy, and it’s been an awesome experience. The new display is super vibrant, the system runs much faster, and I’m getting a lot more playtime on the battery. Best Buy made it really easy to grab on release day, and their service was top-notch. Couldn’t be happier with both the console and where I bought it!

I love it! Came early on release day and has lived up to all my expectations. The screen is much larger than the previous iterations of the Switch and the vibrant colors make everything look amazing. Mario Kart World has been super fun playing against other players online, and the open world is a neat little thing that I can just chill out with. I'm gonna be getting all my games on the Switch 2 for the foreseeable future.

I love this thing. Nice upgrade from the switch 1. The screen and performance are noticeable upgrades. Looking forward to building my switch 2 collection with best buy’

The console is definitely better than the original Switch models, games play great, the screen is pretty good but not the best it could've been especially considering the price your paying. Attaching the new Joy-Cons magnetically is super satisfying, and makes them feel 100x more sturdier than the original Switch. The new accessibility and display features also go a long way in making this a real successor to the Switch 1. Mario Kart World is also a very fun game but frustratingly falls short in different categories. If you know you'll get a good time out of the system and the games already on it, I would recommend. If you are even slightly on the fence about it, I would recommend waiting for a sale or waiting for more games to come out.

Little pricey compared to the original but definitely an upgrade from my original Switch console. The controllers are the biggest bonus as well as the 4K, playing old switch games is even a plus with the higher picture quality. The new Mario Kart game is also fun! I can’t wait for more game share games to become available so I can play online with my friends with more games.

Overall the switch is a massive improvement and upgrade from the oled, obviously it’s a new system so games are limited but hopefully once they start cooking the games are as good as the upgrades for botw&totk which play like completely different games. If you are patient and willing to wait I’d say it’s worth picking up now, Mario kart world is fun and donkey Kong is pretty awesome.

I’ve been using the Nintendo Switch 2 for a little while now, and honestly, it feels like the upgrade I was waiting for. The bigger screen alone makes a huge difference, it’s brighter, smoother, and makes games pop so much more than the first Switch. Docked mode looks sharper too, and jumping into 4K feels like a major step forward.
