    Upgraded Switch New MarioKart

    We got this to play the new Mario Kart and it didn't disappoint. It really is a switch 2, with backwards compatibility (was easy to transfer my digital game library over). Feels and looks better than the OG switch. Like everything about it except the dock. They've made it so you have to use it to hook up to a TV. With the old Switch you could use a powered USB-C to HDMI dongle, which was sooooo much better for travel. If you need a switch, get this, not the switch 1, you'll be sad you won't be able to play the latest and greatest.

    Ive had mine a couple weeks now and its a really nice upgrade from the OG one. The screen looks great and games run fast and smooth. Had to recalibrate the battery, but that was an easy fix

    A premium Nintendo experience

    Yes, this is an expensive piece of hardware. However, this is also an investment in the future of Nintendo. This is truly a better Switch if you're a gaming enthusiast. A bonus is that the vast majority of your Switch library will not only work on this device, it'll run better than ever before. I still use my switch pro controller with the switch 2, however, it won't wake up the console because it's not a "Switch 2" controller - an easy work around is to just tap the power button on the docked console before you sit down. The device feels premium and less toy-like than the original Switch. If I had young kids, I would probably keep them on the original for now.

    Great console. High-quality device. Larger and feels more premium than OG switch. Going to be even easier to recommend once the library inevitably fills up in the years to come.

    Battery life is not as long as prior models. (Around 2-3 hours). System also is prone to getting overly warm in handheld and docked mode.

    We just love and play this all of the time! Good fun for the whole family and its so great to be able to play the old games and downloads, and most of the old controllers on it as well and retire the old Switch to the box. Beautiful graphics! A bit pricey though than it should be. But its Nintendo and we always buy them going back to the 80s!

    I’ll start with the high definition resolution which makes older games feel like new again. Specifically Zelda BOTW and Zelda TOTK. It also has quicker loading/refresh rate times. The controllers are larger and have a new magnetic snap to lock vs the slide to lock, making them easier to remove and charge. I purchased the Bundle with the new Mario Kart World and have tons of fun with family and friends! Now just waiting in new games to come out hopefully for the holidays. 10 out of 10 recommend!
