    Don't listen to unnecessary hate, there's a lot of lies that are spread about this console. Nintendo made a great product, it was easy to set up, it's comfortable to use, the performance is great, game chat is actually really good, BUY IT. THANK YOU TO THE PEOPLE AT BEST BUY FOR MAKING MY DAY ONE PURCHASE EASY.

    This system is amazing and I cannot recommend it enough. The graphics and performance dwarf the performance of the switch 1 allowing for 4k performance and 120hz for certain titles. The games are pricey but I think most titles will provide you with the gameplay hours you are looking for.

    The Switch 2 is an okay sequel

    This review is designed for people who are interested in buying a Switch 2, but aren't sure if it's a good time or not. Main issues: - Larger than the Switch 1 OLED, so it feels slightly strange use in handheld mode. Mostly designed to be used with built in-stand. - The Switch 2 joycon controller adaptor has a large gap, making it substabtially more uncomfortable than the original. I can't imagine using it for prolonged periods of time. Unfortunately, I highly recommend the Pro Controller 2, as it's very comfortable and has many features that probably should come with pack-in controller, like a headphone jack, or powering on the console by holding the home button. (yes. only the right joycon 2 and pro controller 2 can power on the system wirelessly) Be warned, as I have heard that both the joycon 2 and pro controller 2 have drift issues just like the originals, but I have yet to experience this. Otherwise, it's just a more powerful Switch. It's difficult to gauge how meaningful that is, as most of the games are also on the original Switch. It's nice for the handful of games that have Switch 2 versions, but ultimately unnecessary. Realistically, if you're a Nintendo fan, you're going to have to buy a Switch 2 at some point. As of right now, only buy one if you want to be at the forefront of the gaming scene. I recommend saving up and buying the pro controller 2 alongside the console because it will be be that much more enjoyable(this is a major flaw)

    Very happy with this purchase. The Switch 2 feels solid, the Joy-Cons are improved, and games run much better than on the original Switch. Setup was quick and everything worked right out of the box. Buying from Best Buy was hassle-free.

    Switch but bigger with more stuff. The new sized controllers are nice compared to the original switch joy cons. And they finally added the Ethernet port into the dock.

    I still have my launch day switch, and given the small game library of the switch2 at launch, i didnt feel the need to upgrade. Got it as a gift, and the experience is so much smoother than the original. TOTK doesnt chug as hard, and that alone is worth it.

    Make the Switch to Switch 2! Whether you have the first Switch or not at all, give the Switch 2 a go. It’s not perfect—could have more storage, screen could’ve been OLED, could’ve been assured no repeat issues of drift, but there are definitely improvements.

    Love the new nintendo switch 2, it is bigger, color on screen are brighter, excited that it came as a bundle with Super Mario Kart World! and I can still use my cartridges from my old Nintendo Switch that's just going the extra mile!

    The Switch 2 has been exceeding my expectations in terms of performance. The device rarely ever get overheated (maybe once i experienced that blast of hot air out the vents), the joycons are super secure, the graphics look amazing and games run smoothly. This is definitely a worthy successor to the Switch 1, and I will play it until the next one comes!

    The switch 2 is underpowered in it's class but that's nothing new to Nintendo. Nintendo games are usually well optimized and favor gameplay , quality and storytelling over AAA+ graphics. The Switch 2 is little pricey for the lack of games on launch but hopefully Nintendo can turn that around. Overall if you're a fan of the first one it's an improvement in every way.
