    I dont know what i was exspecting in a S2. Maybe I got my expectations a little to high. It looks the same with a bigger screen. Some upgraded parts here and there. Overall it is more powerful from it’s predecessor graphic wise. Battery power is worse. LCD screen quality is worse. I only play docked anyways…. I think nintendo should focus on an actual home console rather than a hybrid unit. Do yourself a favour and get a screen protector. I do have fun with there games though. Just wish this key card and download code in a box thing was not happening. Overall good first party games and experience. Would have been so much happier if the Mario Kart bundle came with the actual game box rather than a download code.

    I used my OLED every single day, and since buying the Switch 2, I have still used it every single day for almost the last month. I’ve been unemployed since February, not by choice at all, and life has been a bit overwhelming and lonely. The Switch 2 has been so fun, the new Mario Kart has been addicting to get used to all the new maps for the first time in YEARS. I love how big the screen is, and the magnetic joycons are a game changer. The ONLY complaint I have is the battery life, and we knew that was coming so I guess I can’t be too disappointed. I’ve taken on an airplane and it drained over half its battery life in a 3 hour flight, which was a bummer. But it charges fast and I don’t regret the purchase one single bit!

    Nintendo Switch 2: A Monumental Leap Forward! ​I've been a dedicated Switch fan since day one, but the Nintendo Switch 2 is more than just an upgrade—it's a complete revolution for hybrid gaming. Nintendo has taken everything that made the original great and polished it to a mirror sheen, delivering an experience that feels truly next-gen. ​Performance & Graphics: Stunning Clarity ​The immediate difference is the visual fidelity. The new, larger OLED screen is absolutely gorgeous, making old favorites look brand new and giving launch titles a stunning depth and clarity. Playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom at a buttery-smooth 60fps, in true 4K resolution when docked, is an experience I didn't know I was missing. Load times are practically non-existent thanks to the new processor, which keeps the action fast and fluid whether you're docked or on the go. ​ The Joy-Con Pro: Finally Perfected ​The redesigned "Joy-Con Pro" controllers are a massive improvement. The dreaded drift issue seems to be completely resolved, and the new magnetic locking mechanism feels sturdy and satisfying. I particularly love the improved ergonomic grips and the new haptic feedback, which provides incredibly subtle and realistic sensations—a real game-changer for immersion. ​ Battery Life and Design ​Battery life has seen a significant boost, easily getting me through long travel days without needing a charge. The console itself retains the brilliant hybrid design, but the new, robust kickstand is a small but critical detail that makes tabletop mode much more stable and enjoyable. ​ Final Verdict ​The Nintendo Switch 2 is not just a console; it’s an ecosystem perfected. If you were holding out for an upgrade or are looking to jump into the Nintendo world for the first time, this is the console to get. It delivers the magic, power, and portability that gaming deserves. Highly, highly recommended!

    Nintendo Switch 2 - Worth the wait, and the cost

    I love my new console! The Nintendo Switch 2 does not disappoint. It may seem similar to the original on first glance, but the hardware diffences make themselves known. The new screen is larger and has a crisper image. It's not OLED, but I found the quality improvements make that virtually unnoticeable. My games load much faster, and the animations seem to be smoother. It feels more ergonomic, possibly because it's wider and the controllers aren't cutting into the base of your palms as much. The new joy-cons feel built with more quality. They fit more comfortably in your hands, and have less annoying "clicky sounds" when playing than the original. Motion tracking games seem to perform better with them. Finally, the included Mario Cart World game is a blast to play and very visually appealing. My family have played it countless times already and it's our new favorite in the series.

    Nintendo Switch 2 System Review

    Great product for anyone of all ages. The system is very easy to use for a new person to get the hang of. The system is very friendly to those who have used any of the Nintendo Switch systems before. Only downside is storage. If want to have a lot of games on your console, you will need to dish out the extra money for the MicroSD card, but they aren't terribly expensive. If you only have 2-5 games, you can use the internal storage.

    Improved CPU and graphics really make this console a great upgrade from the OLED Switch. I really like how the controller attaches magnetically attaches to the main console. I really appreciate that most controllers from the prior generation is compatible with this one, just wished that I could use the older memory cards. While the battery life seems to be less, it’s expected for a more powerful system. Overall, this is another great console from Nintendo.

    I had the first Switch since it came out. Loved it. Bought many games for it for my kids and I. The switch 2 is a huge upgrade. The display alone makes the upgrade worth it. It is a lot easier to play games on it instead of having to doc it to the tv. I find myself rarely doing that actually. I would definitely recommend upgrading if you are able to do so.

    Joycon's are better, screen is better and looks much nicer, handheld life is pretty good. I enjoy the graphic improvement on older titles and it is nice to have gamecube games on here. Can't wait for more third party games. I highly recommend getting a pro controller for extended gaming sessions

    The Switch 2 is a worthwhile purchase, $450. The console’s improved screen quality and speed make a real difference in both handheld and docked modes. Everything feels smoother, and the new display is a big win. The Mario Kart World bundle is fantastic value. The game looks beautiful and offers the classic, highly addictive racing that is perfect for local or online play. If you're ready to upgrade or looking to jump into the Nintendo ecosystem, this is a great, solid bundle.

    Nintendo Switch 2 is an incredible upgrade

    The Nintendo Switch 2 is an incredible upgrade! The graphics are absolutely stunning, the bigger screen makes gameplay more immersive, and the built-in speakers sound surprisingly good for such a small device. I personally use the docking station more than handheld, and I love that it’s backward compatible—my Nintendo Switch 1 games work seamlessly on the new system. As for Mario Kart World, I have mixed feelings. The graphics are off the hook—truly next level—but I’m not a fan of the new Battle Mode. Unlike Mario Kart 8, where you could come back with fewer balloons and keep playing until time ran out, once you lose your life here, you’re done. That said, the game still has its own strengths and is visually amazing.

    The Switch 2 is a solid upgrade from the original. Performance is noticeably better, games run smoother, and load times are much faster. The screen looks great in handheld mode, and the console feels more polished overall. Setup was easy, and it works perfectly with my existing Switch games and accessories. If you enjoyed the original Switch, this is absolutely worth the upgrade.

    Worthy Upgrade from the OG Switch

    I upgraded to the Switch 2 from my original launch-day Switch, and the difference is night and day. The larger, upgraded screen is a game-changer—I find myself playing in handheld mode far more than I ever did with the OG model. It’s vibrant, immersive, and makes every session feel fresh again. Performance is another huge win. Games like Breath of the Wild run noticeably smoother—no more frame drops disrupting the experience. Nintendo clearly stepped up their hardware game. The updated Mario Kart included with the system is a great bonus. It’s not just a rehash—it feels like a thoughtful refresh of a classic that makes jumping back into races feel exciting again. If you’ve got kids, this is a fantastic console to have around. It’s easy to use, family-friendly, and packed with games that are fun for all ages.

    Supee fast shipping. The switch itself is super cool. The graphics are super clear and more detailed. You can pass down previous downloads from the first switch. So you can play even more games. The controller is smooth and has good grip. Really fast changing. The switch is bigger and has a nice screen super light in weight. Super good gift or for oneself. When you play games the graphics are clear very good definition. And easy for all ages. Love it highly recommend. :)

    The Nintendo Switch 2 is a great console. I like the upgraded graphics and that it’s faster when scrolling through the eshop. It is a good deal with the Mario Kart included since it’s a $80 game so you save $30. One of the few things this new system is lacking is new games when it first came out. It should have came out with DK banaza to go along with Mario Kart because Mario Kart was is a short game but the graphics are really good and it is a fun game. The great thing about the Nintendo Switch 2 is that it backwards compatible. One other thing about Nintendo is that they should make more physical game cartridges and get rid of the game key cards. Digital is ok but I’d rather have a physical copy or digital copy because you can’t play the game if you don’t have game key cartridge in the system if you want to play a game that is game key cartridge and if you have digital version there’s no need to worry about it you have game key cartridge. Having physical games available is what gives a better experience when buying new video games. People want something to look at and hold and is better for those who like to trade or collect. But overall the Nintendo Switch 2 is a good console which I believe will be even better with time as new Nintendo Switch 2 games are released that take advantage of the new systems hardware. I ask Nintendo to please take their time with pokemon generation 10 and other future legends games because when you make the graphics not just for the pokemon but for the environment better you’ll see better feedback and sales. Also if possible make different difficulty modes like easy/normal/hard would make the games more challenging and fun. Also making good music for the games will be Make the games more fun! I look forward to the new Yoshi and hope to see a new Mario maker 3 , new 2d Mario and also don’t forget about Starfox !! Star fox was missed last generation and would help give the other IPs a break . A brand new starfox in 4K would be awesome and addition to starfox zero remaster in 4K with adjustment of controls because Wii U was a little awkward and star fox 64 remake !

    It feels like this is the promise of everything that the Switch should have been. It's a joy to hold and play on portably, and in a dock it shines in 4k. Games, especially updated ones, are plentiful. It has become my preferred platform, knocking my beloved Steam Deck down from the winners podium. I'll ding it a tiny bit for Game Key Cards, but I feel like that problem will solve itself in the future. A must buy for any fan of gaming.

    Graphics are great, processor, and over all operating system is worth it. Not sure how much of an upgrade it is from the original switch, but it’s worth the upgrade from switch lite. Wish the battery lasted longer, but overall it charges quickly so time between restoring power while playing is minimum. Especially since it can be played while charging.

    After using it for a few months I can honestly said that I’m truly happy of buying it. Zelda looks incredible and runs perfect! (Remember that you must pay for the Switch2 upgrade). I’m amaze how good Cyberpunk looks too, I hope that they give the Witcher 3 an upgrade too, since the Switch2 is a more powerful handheld. Other than that I totally recommend you to buy one and to get ready for Metroid Prime 4!

    A Great Update to a Great System...

    A great little system, so far. My kids absolutely love Mario Kart World, and this version just updates and upgrades all the things we liked about Switch 1. The controllers are especially nice, but only time will tell if the drift issue from the previous models has actually been fixed, like they said. We all love the bigger screen, and enhanced graphics as well, all though it is less portable, although not egregiously so. Biggest plus is being able to use all our previous games and even getting a free upgrade to some of them via our Nintendo Online account. Breath of the Wild has been given new life and I'm playing it again. It's pricey but considering the lifespan of the previous system (which was much longer than the average Games Workshop game) and all the fun we had with it, we expect to get a lot of use out of this one, so it was worth the cost.
