    In all honesty, this console is not for everyone. But for the people that enjoy what it has to offer, It’s nothing short of perfect at what it does. At the cost of $450, It takes what made the first Switch great and made it even greater, including Magnets on controllers for easier attachment to console and/or accessories, upgraded graphics and storage, and more games made available to you, both through the online shop and their retro game services.

    Great little handle system for Nintendo games a some triple A’s. More powerful than the Oled. Not going to perform as good as a ps5 or Xbox one but if you like Nintendo exclusive and convenient gaming.

    Fun but few games got bored of MKW fast. Needs more games. I like the old CRT type duck hunt. Maybe can help with shooting and reflexes without harming animals. Tech in controllers is cool but I’m sweaty and I think I got a little uncomfortable

    Really nice upgrade over the original Switch. I know some people are calling this a Switch Pro instead of a Switch 2, but so what? That's totally what I wanted from a second generation device. This is sleek, everything is well thought out, and my original Switch games still work on it. Solid upgrade and 120fps HDR looks really nice.

    It’s awesome! After giving it to my niece and nephews they rarely use their ipads now that they have something to play with. We’re having a lot of fun playing Mario Kart World, Mario Party Jamboree, and other family games

    A complete full on upgrade of Nintendos best system, The Switch 2 plays games with beautiful graphics and tight fps' (depending on what game you play. Cyberpunk isn't the best undocked)

    Everything is faster and feels better than my original nintendo switch I got 8 years ago! Glad to have the increased performance and backwards compatibility. Thank you Nintendo. Mario Kart is a generational game. You'll be glad to have as a download so you can play it anytime (as well as saving yourself $30 from the $80 retail version).

    Everyone is right, the price is a little insane. I did upgrade from the original switch however and I absolutely love the 2. I think the Mario kart bundle is the way to go if you love Mario kart. I do wish it came with more personalized stuff as it is a bundle, so usually they do fun stuff with those. I also with the accessories weren't a million dollars to just get new joycons or a dang racing wheel. I love the screen and the joycons. The updated games are really fun to play. I think switch just makes it a one stop shop for these games as most people don't know how to play games on other devices at a better quality.

    Overall, it's a nice improvement from the original. The enlarged screen is nice, and the joycons feel much nicer. Unfortunately, setup was a pain, and having to switch out both the HDMI and the power source to make it work properly was annoying. The old ac adaptor wouldn't power it in the dock, and apparently, my old HDMI cord wasn't shielded enough and caused the joycon to disconnect every 15 seconds. Long story short, just save yourself the trouble and hook it up with everything that comes in the box.

    I'm loving my time with the Switch 2. Everything about it is an upgrade from the original. The magnetic click for the joy cons is so satisfying, and popping them in and out of the console or any accessories is so much easier with the new mechanism. Mario Kart World is a blast to play with my family. I am also enjoying the free roam mode, it's relaxing to just cruise around with no real goal other than to see what's beyond the next horizon. I like that there are upgraded versions of classic switch games. Even non-upgraded games are greatly benefited from the beefier hardware, as load times that used to be significant are reduced by huge margins. Being able to use my legacy controllers with no real loss in functionality (other than losing access to the new social button) is really great because otherwise I'd probably be spending just as much as a new system to deck my family out in new gear just to play together.

    I was skeptical about t he Mario cart but I was wrong. The open world play is a lot more fun than I expected. There are a lot of fun challenges and hidden Easter eggs to find. Collecting everyone’s hidden outfits is a great challenge. I am a little sad piranha plant only has one. Missed opportunity there.
