    I love the upgraded visuals and fps, the hdr screen, the magnetic joycons, and the charge ports at top and bottom! The back has two tiny dot sized chip indents that make me worry about the durability of the device however I'm not sure if those were caused by me or from the factory.

    ★★★★★ The Nintendo Switch 2 is a huge step forward. The graphics are noticeably sharper and more detailed, and games look smoother and more vibrant than ever. Colors really pop, environments feel more alive, and everything just runs better overall. Whether you’re playing docked or handheld, the visual upgrade is immediately noticeable and makes familiar games feel brand new. Nintendo really delivered with this one—if you care about better visuals and a more immersive gaming experience, this system is absolutely worth it.

    Bought It for My Son… Ended Up Being for Us

    We got the Nintendo Switch 2 for our son after having the Switch 1, and wow — what an upgrade. The graphics are noticeably better, everything feels smoother, and the overall experience is just more fun. He absolutely loves it… but I’ll be honest, I might love it even more. Playing together has been the best part. It feels like Nintendo leveled up not just the console, but the family fun too. Totally worth the upgrade and highly recommended.

    The Switch 2 is a very easy to use gaming device. It has excellent 4k graphics and works well as both a handheld as well as console device.

    I’m super excited to share that after all the waiting, I finally got my hands on the Nintendo Switch 2! My first impressions after picking it up from Best Buy are absolutely fantastic. it’s clear that Nintendo has created a wonderful successor. You can really see the upgrades right away. The larger, more vibrant screen is the first thing that grabs your attention. Even though it’s not an OLED, the LCD quality is really impressive, giving a noticeable boost in visual quality for both new games and those classic Switch titles. Revisiting games like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom feels like a whole new experience thanks to smoother frame rates and faster load times!

    I was able to upgrade to this from the original switch. It’s a HUGE upgrade. The performance is night and day. The screen looks great and games look awesome with the Switch 2 update.

    I bought this 100% expecting the worse based off other reviews. Well if there is one thing I learned in this world, its to not listem to all the bad reviews since most people are hard to please and expecr the world. The screen looks amazing even after coming frol the Switch OLED. Colors look nice and gameplay is alot smoother. Ive tested the new Madden 26 and was very skeptical but again, I read reviews saying it was "unplayable" when it actually is. I have a steam deck OLED but ive caught myself playing on the switch alot more frequently lately. Also the docked quality on some games looks amazing. Its so nice to finally play some nintendo games at 4k resolution. If your skeptical of purchasing this, id say try it out for yourself and see if it meets YOUR needs. Im glad I did, because its definitely met mine. Happy Gaming!

    The Switch 2 is an incredible console. Its performance compared to the Switch 1 is exceptionally noticeable and impressive. The new games offered are worth the upgrade alone. And let’s not forget the ability to access GameCube titles with Nintendo Plus is a significant advantage that makes the Switch 2 a worthwhile investment.

    Amazing! Love how big the screen is, and how crystal clear the picture is. Only con that i can tell is the amount of play time which is 2 and a half hours. Charging is a breeze though. Glad i got the mario cart bundle as well

    Much larger display that the switch 1. Which can make it more difficult to hold and play for some. I like the fact that it has backwards compatibility and I think the graphics are improved. I think it is priced a bit high, but if you trade in a previous model as I did at BestBuy, it makes the price a little easier to deal with. Unless you need your previous switch, it is nice that this will continue to play them.

    Bought this for the GC emulator and Mario Kart. There are a lot free updates to other switch games that make it more fun or playable like Pokemon S/V running at an acceptable frame rate. Coming from a launch Switch 1 but im enjoying better frame rates and some games getting better graphics and a bigger screen

    The features of this compared to the first switch have improved tremendously. The larger size is still portable. The controllers are souch smoother in the hands and connect to the main device even better with the magnet to secure and the button to release. The screen resolution is noticeably better and has more clarity than the original device. All of these new features improved on the original device and makes it well worth the money!

    I am more than happy with my NS2. It was a great bday gift to myself. I enjoy playing it most with my 5 year old son, who loves Mario. We play a plethora of Mario games together and I even got him into Zelda. Whether its on the big screen or handheld, I just couldn’t have asked for a better gaming console. Very versatile, great game options and enhaced graphics makes this an easy chose as my go to gaming system. Well done Nintendo and thank you Best Buy for having it in stock when none else did. 10/10

    It's Nintendo and I love their games. I am not a serious gamer. I like the Mario and Donkey Kong games. Just something I can easily put down and not get too involved in (I have a short attention span). This is a great system and I think is worth it.

    New Screen, Console, Joycons are much better. Battery life isn't as good but it still last decent time. The games are backwards compatible so you dont loose any of your older games. Whats not to like?

    A well thought out and designed handheld! Many improvements over the OG Switch. Much faster load times and frame rates as well. Battery life is exceptional and charges fast with the new 100W Charger.
