    A Great Upgrade That Feels Familiar

    The Switch 2 keeps everything I loved about the original but improves where it counts — faster loading, sharper visuals, and better battery life. Games run smoother, and the slightly bigger screen looks amazing. Still super portable and great for couch or travel gaming. If you liked the first Switch, this feels like a polished evolution, not a complete overhaul — and that’s a good thing.

    I picked up my switch at the midnight release and that alone was a good time. This new console is amazing. I was very skeptical at first about how much of a jump it really is from the first switch and you can just tell as soon as you open the box. Beautiful built with a nice black matte finish to it just looks premium. The screen is beautiful and bigger. Definitely do not regret buying

    Overall the switch 2 feels much more polished and refined than the switch 1. Switch 2 has a more expensive and official feeling. Due to the console only recently releasing however, there are not many exclusive games avaiable. Once more games come out I would definitely recommend this console for anyone wanting to play nintendo games.

    Good Console, but if you have the funds

    The console works as intended: a much better performing gaming and portable console with inproved graphics. Might be too early to test the Joycon durability, but still performs well. Internal memory is also has better capacity, even without the SD storage extension. Battery life its among its major downside: most games drain it very fast. Also, the fact that the SD cards that support games is only of a specific type and both very pricey and often not properly available or affordable at higher capacities, it does puta it a step behind its predecessor. Not necessarily worth the bug price tag. Hence, good to have, but only if you have the funds.

    Looks like a well made gaming system. Lots of improvements from Nintendo Switch, the way it looks, the way it feels, and the way it performs, spectacular! Going to have to buy another one before Christmas for the grandkids when there all here for Christmas but this one Grandpa & Grandma are keeping!

    Nintendo always delivers good quality products. If you’ve never owned a switch this is a great item. The reverse comparability in almost all switch 1 games is a huge bonus. The games all get a performance bonus as well from the switch 2’s hardware.

    I love the switch 2 so far! I can play all my switch 1 games on a bigger display and with much less lag! I definitely recommend getting one of you want to upgrade from your switch 1 and future proof your game catalog selection

    Easy decision

    Exactly what I was wanting in the follow-up to the original switch. Smoother gameplay, larger screen, 4k Zelda, and more third party games made this an easy decision. My only complaints would be the game cards not having the games on them on most third party and still needing a grip or third party joy cons for comfortable handheld play.

    This makes an alresdy excellent mobile galing experience even better! Even though I haven’t havent bought any Switch 2 specific games, the games i have for the original system just run better. Still finishing up Witcher 3 and it runs so much better on the new system. Cant wait to jump back into Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

    Much needed improvements over the original switch. The screen is larger and the absence of an OLED doesn't take away from the vibrant colors. If not having OLED is still an issue for you, I recommend getting a OLED TV or OLED monitor.

    I recently got my hands on the Nintendo Switch 2, and I have to say—it’s a phenomenal upgrade from the original. From the moment I turned it on, the screen clarity immediately impressed me. The OLED-style display (or whatever the Switch 2 uses) makes games look sharper and more vibrant, bringing a whole new level of immersion whether I’m playing in handheld or docked mode.

    Great Product but Lacks Games For Now

    The product itself is awesome. Loads super quickly, controllers can be used as a mouse, bigger screen, etc. A few complaints I have is yes there’s a decent sized market on games, but they’re very expensive and do not have a refund policy. Also, I do play a lot of EA games but after buying EAFC25, I noticed EA really dumbed down the graphics. It makes me wonder if EA will continue to not show its love for Nintendo. Overall, I’d buy it again but will do more research before purchasing any more games.

    A great console so far…

    So far, so good. I’m enjoying this console. I like the size of the Switch 2, especially compared to the original Switch, especially since I’m mostly playing handheld. I haven’t docked it to the TV yet, so I can’t comment there. The few Switch games I’ve tried so far (well, really just Pokemon Scarlet) are running far smoother on this console than the last. I can’t comment on battery life yet because I haven’t had a chance to play for long. I have also heard that JoyCon drift is still an issue, and I’m hoping I don’t experience that. Nintendo really has no excuse to have not fixed that WELL known issue after all this time. As an aside, I think the $450 price tag is fine for what the product is, and that price isn’t what bothers me… but I don’t plan to go buy any $80 games all willy-nilly. There is no way that Mario Kart World is worth $80. And the game key cards for 3rd party are a terrible idea. I will basically be using this console only for first party Nintendo games and the online services (eagerly awaiting the GameCube Online to add the Pokemon Colosseum and XD games). I will save any new third-party games for my PC.
