    Never having owned the Switch 1, I wasn't sure what to expect but my family loves it. Surprised how easy it is to pop out of the holder and keep playing on the go. Graphics are a nice upgrade and looking forward to the upcoming exclusives

    I'm more of a casual gamer and I love my switch! The bigger screen looks flawless and the touchscreen works well even with a tempered glass screen protector. Sometimes it is a little big for me to hold but the included joycon controller is perfect for me!

    Im loving this device. Out the gate a lot of the enhanced games run way better now on the switch 2 over the original. This device performs way better than i expected and looked better in person than online. I see the hate online over it but if this is the console you want just get it. The current library of games as I write this is low for the switch 2 games but with upcoming releases this device is going to truly shine even more. I find the new magnetic joycons to ve very secure and should take a greatt amount of force to remove them without using the release latch.

    Worth the upgrade! I know lots are hesitant because of the lack of games and price but its worth it in my opionion. You get a larger better screen, better joy cons, improved aesthetics, 4k and docked mode!

    The Switch 2 offers everything that worked in the original Switch but with updated hardware. There was a seamless transition between consoles, and it's refreshed while feeling and looking familiar in that way we've grown accustomed to over the past 8 years. I'm happy I bought when I did but can understand why you may wait until there are Switch 2 specific mainstream titles that you want to play before upgrading. I look forward to another 8+ years of faithful service from this hardware!

    Performance is leauges better than the switch 1. Pokemon Scar/Vi don't run like they're being played in a jar of peanut butter now. The membership getting you access to a ton of classic games is awesome. I can finally play XD Gale of Darkness after all these years. The data transfer from my switch 1 was seamless. Wouldn't accept the SD card for some reason, though. Even still, all my saved data is fully intact. The joycons snapping on the side instead of sliding on from the top makes it a bit more awkward to put them back on if your switch is docked in a cramped space; but the magnets are strong, so they snap themselves on pretty easily (and quite satisfyingly.) I don't really play in handheld much, but the screen being bigger than the switch 1 is nice for that.

    The switch 2 is exactly what it is, a decent upgrade to the system but not exactly a whole new system. It's much better design then the first and plays games better and faster

    so easy to setup, just plug in in the power and connect the HDMI. The joy cons already had a charge to be used out of the box, but better to let it sit in the dock all together to get a full charge before much use. Looks amazing on the a 4k tv, and the HDMI-CEC communicates to turn the tv on and change to the right input very well.

    Seriously, this newer version is so much better than the first one. The smoother frame rates make a huge difference in how games feel. Plus, the graphics look way sharper, which is a really nice upgrade. It's definitely worth it if you were on the fence about the original. Overall, a solid improvement that's hard to argue with. I do wish the battery life was better though!

    The Switch 2 feels like a completely different platfom than the Switch. It works so much more flawlessly than the first one. The Best Buy that I purchased my console from was extremely helpful, and made my trip to Best Buy verysmooth!

    I was really expecting a lot more for the hefty price tag. I was met with a slightly heftier and durable device with a slightly larger screen compared to the large size of the device itself. The battery life is just as bad as the original which was where I would’ve preferred better quality for handheld play.

    Switch 2 – Worth Every Penny! I just got my hands on the Nintendo Switch 2 from Best Buy, and wow—this thing is a beast! The upgraded visuals are jaw-dropping, and the speed boost makes everything feel so snappy. I’ve been diving into my favorite games and the experience is smoother, brighter, and more immersive than ever. The new Joy-Cons feel like they were made for my hands, and the battery life? Chef’s kiss. Best Buy nailed it with fast shipping and great packaging. If you're on the fence, jump off—it’s totally worth it.

    Really enjoying the Switch 2 so far. The bigger screen looks awesome and games run way smoother than on my old Switch. The new Joy-Cons feel nicer in the hands too.

    An excellent piece of hardware. It runs everything faster and better than its predecessor. The resolution is sharper and the animation is so much better! It finally has adequate onboard storage. Smash brothers is glorious on this machine. I hesitate to buy this for my younger children. We each had our own Switch OLED system, but this one doesn't seem like it can handle any clumsiness on the go. It's fine in the dock or on the table - but it's bigger and thinner, and I don't think it will handle drops or flexes as well as the original Switch. At this new price-point, I won't be buying one for every member of the family regardless, but I'm satisfied with this single unit in the family room. It's loads of fun.

    Bought this system for my kids for christmas.This year so i'm giving it a five out of five because I have played it.And it is nice.I love.How the screen is big?I love how easy you can download things. The only thing that I do not like is I have other switches, and I can only share an account with one other system. So that being said, if you are a nintendo family and you buy the download games and you have multiple downloads.You can't download them on a third system.You can only have them on two systems.to play
