    The Nintendo Switch 2 is an amazing console and an overall improvement from the original Switch. The mouse controls are very fun to use, and the system feels so much nicer with how much bigger it is. It's way more powerful, with a lot of new and exciting games releasing almost every month. However, Nintendo's greed with pricing for these new games, the system, and accessories has been a big reason people hesitate on buying the system, and I don't blame them. Another reason is the game key cards, which are really stupid, since why would you buy a game key card if you still have to download the entire game? Just buy it from the eshop at that point! The console and games are very good and fun, but Nintendo's decisions with pricing and game cards have put a sour taste in my mouth and others. If you can afford it i would recommend it at least as an upgrade from your previous system since the original Switch line is amazing as well as the growing Switch 2 library.

    Our family owns every version of the OG Switch with hundreds of hours on each, but the Switch 2 feels like the only "adult" model. its larger and faster with a premium feel that lets the kids know -- This one is dad's!

    Overall this has impressed me. The console is sturdier than the original, and the improvements in performance in old switch games alone is impressive and significant, completely changing the experience of titles such as Pokemon Scarlet

    Definitively an improvement from first Switch, you can notice on the graphics,, resolution, specially on those games that have an adaptation. I got Cyberpunk 2077 and runs very well. The bad point (up to Oct 2025) is the limited catalog of games, hopefully this won't be a problem in the near future
