    It’s an improvement on most everything from the original Switch - bigger screen, more storage, tightened up graphics, bigger joycons!

    Very good product better than switch 1 I like that you able to reuse any games that were bought inside the the switch lite very cool. I was able to play lots of old games so it wasn’t a waste. Will highly recommend. The controllers are much better quality than the first switch. I bought a switch lite and never used so this product is a big upgrade.

    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)

    Overall great upgrade compared to Switch 1. Even though the screen is not OLED, the quality is amazing. Just wish the battery life is better!

    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 honeatly love this device. It has great performance and runs games extremely well. It is a vast improvement over the switch 1. Also, this bundle is a great deal as it's cheaper than buying the console itself and the game seperate. But if you don't care about mario kart, just buy the console. Something I wish it had was themes on the main menu. Overall I love this so far!

    This is a great product. Good build quality. Good performance. Generally, very pleased. Two call outs: #1) the SD card issue. You need a new spec of SD card. Not a big deal because I want performance out of my devices, but it was another $$$ for an SD card. #2) the transition from the switch 1 to this unit seemed clunky. Again, not the end of the world. At the end, the device is great.

    Its like a switch but runs smoother and has way less available titles, so not really worth it yet but it probably will be in like a year

    Bought this device for my children they love it we can take it on road trips connect it to your tv add controllers so the whole family can play together and it came with the Mario bundle my favorite part is you can play all the old school games. If you haven’t purchased you and your family one you most definitely should. 5 stars

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Excellent console. Controller can be split up and used by two people, although not as comfy. Mario Cart is pretty fun. Games from Switch 1 work fine. Storage could be a little bigger for downloaded games.
