So Nintendo technical told a bunch of half-truths about the technical specs of the screen and video output, but it doesn't change the fact that they known how to make great games. The device is also still a pretty tremendous upgrade on the Switch 1 in basically every way. For anyone who owned a switch and has a back catalog, this device has been actually transformative for so many of those games on top of it. It may be worth the upgrade just to get the added benefit to older switch 1 games you love or havent played yet because of performance issues. There are a lot of reasons to be frustrated with Nintendo, but they still have it where it counts. FYI, I have had to swap out my dock 2 times now for faulty Ethernet ports on the back. Make sure you periodically check your internet settings if you plug the deck into wired ethernet so that if yours goes back you can RMA it through nintendo.

Obviously, this is $450 but once you get over that, it's just everything you loved about the switch polished and upgraded in everyway. The UI is silky smooth, as is the eShop experience. It feels like how the original wanted to be but didn't have the horsepower to do it well. Upgraded games like Super Mario Odyssey look absolutely incredible and move at 60 FPS, no sweat. The build quality is miles better, the joycons so far with no drift and the magnetic clasps are amazing. No more lining up the pins just right to get the joycons to slot correctly. Screen is beautiful, large and colorful. I'm so excited to have this in my hands.

Bought this device for my children they love it we can take it on road trips connect it to your tv add controllers so the whole family can play together and it came with the Mario bundle my favorite part is you can play all the old school games. If you haven’t purchased you and your family one you most definitely should. 5 stars

So far, it is a great extension of the original switch. Better performance, and everything else is very similar. Better performance, bigger screen, and the UI is pretty much the same, which was great. It feels like a great extension of the original switch

Love this switch. I love the bigger screen and better graphics. Way to go Nintendo

The whole system is a great upgrade from previous. magnetic controllers as opposed to snapping makes a gigantic difference. now can use camera for some games too

Switch 2 is heavier, feels better made, plays better. Only issue I have is the battery life.

We got this to play the new Mario Kart and it didn't disappoint. It really is a switch 2, with backwards compatibility (was easy to transfer my digital game library over). Feels and looks better than the OG switch. Like everything about it except the dock. They've made it so you have to use it to hook up to a TV. With the old Switch you could use a powered USB-C to HDMI dongle, which was sooooo much better for travel. If you need a switch, get this, not the switch 1, you'll be sad you won't be able to play the latest and greatest.

So much fun! The family loves it, the graphics are a big improvement and i like the new sleek look.

Love the new screen and bigger kickstand. Quality of graphics is better as well.

The Nintendo switch 2 is a big upgrade to my Nintendo switch 1 I can now play games so much smoother now is everything is bigger too would recommend to any Nintendo switch fan and the extra storage is great also.

I love it! The graphics are amazing and I love how the controllers are magnetic!

The game console bundle truly delivers on its promises, providing an excellent gaming experience. The visuals are stunning, making the racing experience immersive and enjoyable. It's easy to pick up and play, making it a perfect choice for both casual and experienced gamers. Additionally, the bundle includes everything needed to start racing immediately, as advertised. Overall, it's a fantastic product that lives up to expectations.

Outstanding, bigger screen. Easier to attach controllers. Just great.

Battery life is not as long as prior models. (Around 2-3 hours). System also is prone to getting overly warm in handheld and docked mode.

Great system and replacement for my gen 1 switch. Games run so much smoother and graphics have a decent jump from before. Wish battery life was longer but keeping a portable charger handy helps.

Bigger screen and better graphics over the 1. Plus Mario Kart World was fun

The larger screen and smooth display makes for a big improvement over the OLED version. Very happy with my purchase and now it's time to get more Switch 2 specific games

The best console at an affordable price nowdays, good quality screen despite not being OLed and the joycons2 are way mor comfortable that the previos ones + the ability to play the Switch games just the same but running better because of the better hardware its a great upgrade. Availability of the console, large library and not bad of a price compared to everything else out there makes this the perfect Christmas present for any gamer.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is an absolute triumph! From the moment I powered it on, I was blown away by the vibrant display, improved performance, and incredibly comfortable Joy-Cons. The games look stunning, load times are snappy, and the overall experience feels polished and premium. Nintendo has truly outdone themselves with the enhancements to both handheld and docked modes. If you're a fan of Nintendo or looking for a versatile gaming experience, you absolutely need this console. My only minor quibble, and it's a small one, is the continued absence of Super Mario Sunshine on the GameCube Classics app. It's such a beloved title, and it would be the perfect addition to an already fantastic library. Despite that tiny wish, the Switch 2 is easily my favorite console. Highly, highly recommend!
