    If you already own a Switch, I’d recommend waiting. There aren’t enough new exclusives yet to justify the upgrade, and most of the games you’ll be playing are carried over from the original Switch. There are only a couple of new titles, so it doesn’t really offer a fresh experience. It’s essentially the same console with some quality-of-life improvements and slightly better performance, which is expected and not necessarily disappointing—but it doesn’t feel new. If you’ve never owned a Switch before, it’s a great option. If you already have or had one, it’s okay, just not worth the price yet in my opinion. The cost of new games is also ridiculous, and having to pay for voice chat such a basic feature feels unreasonable. And if you’re into hacking, don’t even bother.

    Nintendo Switch 2 - different than the past

    The latest Nintendo switch is larger than the past models, but still small enough for hand held play. The quality is excellent, and the new design has subtle changes that make a big impact.i was skeptical that we needed another switch (we have an Oled) but this one is different than the past models.

    The Switch 2 is an amazing upgrade from the Switch 1. It is fast, better graphics. It doesnt have the best battery if it isnt being charged. So if you travel a lot get a external battery for it.

    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!

    Bigger screen, better quality product and graphics and almost no lagging like I had with my Switch 1. Great for vacations, works great with smart TV's and you can even play Switch 1 games on it. I take mine with on business trips and play on the go, on lunch and in the evening around work schedules. The unit holds a charge for a long time and when the system is connected to a TV, the controllers that disconnect stay charged for almost 2 days of non-stop playing. The games are great quality and there is a huge selection online and, in the store, to choose from.

    Switch 2 has improved literally everything from its predecessor and is so much more enjoyable to play Switch games on. Better performance, improved graphics and the joycons are the best they have ever been! Highly recommend picking one of these up when in stock!

    Best Nintendo Console To Date

    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

    A pretty decent upgrade

    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)

    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.

    Great system overall, its pretty much a "2" really so no major surprises Sofware wise, if you like the original Switch you will love this one. It is far more comfortable than the original one, I could finish Donkey Kong Bananza on portable mode, in the original I could not play any game more than an hour. The 2 major drawbacks of this console are 3 No oled screen whcih is a shame. Although powerful for a portable considering the price I think Nintendo could have made it a bit more powerful to secure 60 fps 3rd party games The UI is way too simple and lack customization just like the original. All that aside is a great console thats worth the money.

    We love the switch 2. The new Mario kart makes it worth it and the screen size is nice. Controllers are different from the original switch which we like. We play this as a family a lot. So far it’s great.
