So stylish, bigger screen, the battery last longer.

I was against getting this because we already had the switch og, but the switch 2 is a completely differemt animal the whole family enjoys it.

Nintendo keep doing amazingly regarding handhelds that are portable, energy efficient, and ports. Never eliminate the RJ45 one please!.

Double thumbs up! Playing games with the kids and exploring tactics and strategy has been a wonderful addition to family time. Since I believe that screentime is not all bad, the coordination, and active learning and challenges that comes from video games is useful to kids and has been useful to me from when I played (a lot) decades ago. Balance with non-screen stuff (sports, hiking) is of course crucial, but this adds a lot of fun to the mix of being family - with restrictions!

The Switch 2 isn't groundbreaking or anything, but it does make the original almost obsolete. Most games are backwards compatible with only a few exceptions here and there. Besides getting it for the upcoming Switch 2 only games, there's a few games from the original Switch's library that have received free updates to take advantage of the new hardware's capabilities (and I'm sure more will follow over the years). It's also been getting a steady amount of 3rd party support, mostly in the form of 8th and 9th generation ports, but there'll also be new games. If you liked the Switch, you'll probably be a fan of the Switch 2, but maybe hold off for more games you'd be interested in. Mario Kart World is plenty of fun, but it really shouldn't be an $80 standalone game, so if you're interested, this bundle is for you. The game is very well made, and exploring the open map is an interesting concept for a kart racer, but there's less courses than previous entries (especially compared to Mario Kart 8/Deluxe after all of its DLC)

Performance is on par with the steam deck, and although the LCD display is bigger than the previous switch the backlighting is very noticable and color vibrancy and accuracy is not as good as the oled of the previous model. Battery life is not great, only get about an hour and a half with the brightness at around 80%. Still a very fun console, not worth all the hype surrounding it but would still get it once there is more availablity and more games available to play.

My Grandson's are loving this. They would give it 10 stars if they could. I played a game with them and it was easy for me to use as well, so I like it too!!!!

The switch 2 hands down is the best console this year!! Amazing graphics, handling is way better the quality of the games are out of this world and not to mention handheld is perfect! Best money I've ever spent!!

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

Have been enjoying my use of it! The screen is nice and big, easy to bring around with me and transfer from my old console was quick and painless!

I picked up the Nintendo Switch 2 on launch night at Best Buy in Big Flats, NY. The staff did a great job keeping things organized and moving, even with a busy crowd. After a few days of use, I can say the system feels like a meaningful step forward. The performance is noticeably better—games load quicker and run more smoothly overall. The updated Joy-Cons feel sturdier and more comfortable in-hand, and the new kickstand is a nice improvement for tabletop play. I also appreciated that it's compatible with my existing Switch library, so I could jump right back into my favorite games without any hassle. The new titles available at launch are promising and show off what the system can do. Overall, I’m glad I upgraded. It’s not a radical departure from the original, but it improves on enough things to make it worthwhile for regular Switch users.

It's so great! so much fun! Easy to set up, easy to store, if you're thinking of getting it - do it!

I already have 1 month with the console and I don't stop playing, I loved that they made the screen bigger and it is light very comfortable to grip, 100% recommended

Great system! The library will be awesome, screen is way bigger, and it feel goo in the hands a little heavier then the original.

The system is amazingand easily improves on everything that was already great about the original Switch! Screen quality is beautiful. The compatibility of the GameShare is a literal game changer. Love the matte finish on it as well.

Definitely fun to play!!! Also was a great awesome gift can’t wait to play with it more especially on the road.

The bigger screen compared to the first gen is great. Gaming is awesome on the switch.

I’m really enjoying the Nintendo Switch 2 so far, it's a noticeable step up from the original Switch in all the right ways. The improved graphics make games look sharper and more vibrant, and the faster processing speed makes everything feel smoother, from loading times to gameplay performance. It still has that classic Switch versatility, but with a much more modern, responsive feel. Overall, I think the Switch 2 is a great purchase and definitely worth upgrading to if you loved the first one or just want a fun, powerful handheld console.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is amazing! Super smooth performance, beautiful graphics, and the new features make gaming even more fun. Portable and easy to use. I couldn’t be happier with this purchase!

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.
