Customer Ratings & Reviews

The game is awesome, I love the bigger screen as well. Flawless. Only thing I don’t like is that the battery life is not all that great in handheld mode but it’s not bad either.

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!

Been playing it since day one couldn’t be happier with my switch 2. Screen is a decent size and graphics are great battery life is doing good hopefully it stays that way.

I love my switch 2 because of the size and performance!

My son loves this game. I like that it has a bigger screen and it looks really nice

Switch 2 is my favorite handheld and it’s even better docked!

My Switch 2 is definitely awesome and moving from my old Switch to the new Switch 2 was super easy.

Build quality is greatly improved over previous Switch models. Performance is solid all around, holding a steady 120 fps with the Breath of the Wild Switch 2 edition/upgrade. Not many games to use as a baseline for its long-term prospects, but if you have a decent catalog already and are looking for an upgrade, it may be worth considering. This will largely depend on your budget as Nintendo games rarely go on sale. Even Breath of the Wild is still full priced after over 8 years. While Nintendo overall creates high quality software, it feels unreasonable to keep prices the same as the day it launched nearly a decade later.

This was written within one month of the console's launch. Much may change over time. Console: Overall, I'm satisfied with Switch 2. The console itself feels comfortable to use handheld. It runs better than the original Switch, even with Switch 1 games. The mouse controls are an addition with a lot of potential, though it has yet to be fully utilized. Technology like DLSS will hopefully allow the system to run demanding games acceptably. Currently there aren't a lot of original games on it which I'm interested in playing on the system, but I'm confident that will improve quickly over the first year based on Nintendo's history. The motion-clarity of the screen has become a complaint for some. It doesn't bother me personally, but I'd recommend testing the system first to see if you're sensitive to it. It also remains to be seen if design problems like joystick drift will happen over time the way they did with Switch 1. Mario Kart World: "Mario Kart World" is a good game, and perhaps may be improved by Nintendo over time. However, as it stands at launch I'd rate it 8/10; it's fun but clearly a first iteration on a new open-world concept. Exploration lacks a satisfying sense of progression, and it's easier to fall out-of-bounds during normal races because the boundaries are less clear than past games. For comparison I'd rate "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe" 9/10; it's currently the best version of the traditional formula even if there's room for improvement. Given the choice between MKW and MK8 I'd probably recommend MK8 even if they were the same price. But I'm happy to have MKW.

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!

One of the best systems I like the blogger screen to play on the road but on the Dock everything looks great on 4k

Switch 2 is a major upgrade from the original switch. Noticeable game performance for most of the games I play. While it has a high price tag, it’s worth it for how much I play on my nintendo consoles, so take that into consideration. The new Mario kart added value was nice as well in the bundle.

Love the speed and size of the new model. Charge drains a bit quickly but it is just the way it goes.

I love the new Nintendo Switch 2! It is sleek, the game graphics are next level and the processor is fast

Another great system from Nintendo, does everything you’d expect and more. Definitely an upgrade from the previous switch!

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

Amazing upgrade compared to the 1st switch. So much fun. Battery needs to be longer on its own, however the USB-c on the top of system will charge the unit so makes it easier to play while charging

I like that the screen is just bigger and its just better all the way around with the graphics and ergonomics of it when its in your hands.

The screen is so much better and bigger such love that it comes as a bundle, definitely adding more games to the collection soon (:

Great upgrade from the first switch! Awesome graphics. Greats design
