Love the System we play it as a family! I have my titles I play as 30 year old that I like to take and go whenever I’m in the car! And my 3 year old plays kid games that he also loves it’s a good console!

Love the switch 2! You can definetly feel a difference in performance from the original. Only complaint is the battery life, but that was expected on launch. As long as you keep it plugged in while playing, the battery should last a good long while.

LOVE this so much. My fiance and I bought it to have something to do when we are bored. We had Nintendo switch 1 and this one the screen is bigger. Quality is great. Speed is great. Love the Mario games!

Before getting the switch 2 I played most of my games on PS5 Pro, Steam Deck OLED and Switch OLED. Despite the Steam Deck and Switch having OLED screens I found myself quickly playing handheld on the Switch 2. I’m quite sensitive to screen ghosting and other issues but despite the complaints online the Switch 2 screen hasn’t been an issue for me. The larger screen is more important than OLED for me. Playing docked is also nice, something I didn’t do much on the switch, even though I owned a switch since its original launch day. The battery life is okay, but the way the charging limit works is a bit odd with Nintendo changing wording to give a range. With the charging limit enabled my switch shows 81% or 82% fully charged, but if I do a hardware reset it goes to 87% for a few days. Odd, but it’s not been an issue. Unfortunately, I have found Nintendo’s switch 2 games to be underwhelming. Hopefully this will change in the future but even if it dies not I still highly recommend the switch 2. The bigger screen and therefore bigger joy cons are much more comfortable for me and weight isn’t an issue. When Nintendo release an OLED version I might buy one, but don’t regret my purchase at all.

I tried so long to get my hands on this thing! The bots and scalpers held me back for too long. But after finally getting my hands on one, i can definitely say it is worth the wait and all the hype. The screen looks awesome, and the 4K 60fps and 120fps look amazing on TV mode. Already got a travel case and screen protector so im ready to take it with me everywhere lol plus all my older games run smooth as butter now. No more frame drops or lag :)

The Nintendo Switch 2 feels like the natural next step for Nintendo’s hybrid console, blending the charm of the original with some much-needed upgrades that make gaming smoother, sharper, and more comfortable. The bigger screen and faster processor make games look and run better, while the redesigned Joy-Con 2 controllers snap on magnetically, feel sturdier in the hand, and finally address some comfort issues from the first generation. Backwards compatibility means your old library still works—often with noticeable improvements—and new features like built-in GameChat and the clever Mouse Mode add fresh ways to play and connect. The Pro Controller 2 is another highlight, with better grips and refined buttons that make longer sessions easier. Docked play now delivers clearer visuals on a TV, and while handheld mode is a bit bulkier, it benefits from a larger and crisper display. The trade-offs are that it’s more expensive than before, still not using OLED tech, and has some concerns around repairability, but overall, the Switch 2 feels like a strong refinement rather than a revolution, a console that doubles down on what made the original so special while adding just enough power and polish to keep it competitive in 2025.

Absolutely perfect design. Strong run speeds. Speakers are clear. So many more game options then the first

Its a great piece of hardware. It feels better than the original Switch, its faster, its larger, its more powerful. But at the end of the day, its one of Nintendo's least innovative consoles to date. Its a more powerful Switch. The game selection is lacking for now, but that will improve with time. Im giving this 4 stars because while it lacks innovation, the Switch didnt need much in the way of innovation. All in all, its a great console that will provide years of entertainment.

Just picked one of these up and hands down best gaming device out there! Playing it on 4k on the tv is a blast then turning it to handheld just makes it so worth the price! Great gaming system!

I enjoy the improved ergonomics, controller size and the systems ability to run games at higher, fast loading quality. My only con, the preinstalled screen protector came with a scratch. Very carefully, i had to remove it in order to install a new one.

I know people love to hate this console but I absolutely love it. So far i have played all the way through Hogwarts and have been playing a lot of BOTW on it. Both game have been greatly improved. The load times alone make it worth it. Love the companion app on my phone. I look forward to what they do with that and other games. If you loved the original switch then you will love this one also. Definitely worrh the price. Don’t listen to the haters.

Love this new system! The bigger screen and new controller design is perfect!

The price is the only thing that bugs me about this console. But I love the games that become available with it (plus its backwards compatible with Nintendo switch games) the fact that its larger then the Nintendo switch and still portable, and the graphics are AMAZING, Nintendo games you had on the switch get a boost in graphics too although sometimes you have to pay. The space runs out fast though and the SD Express cards are a bit expensive too. Delivery was quick and timely, no problems or broken parts either! I would recommend easily to others.

Overall, great console. A great improvement from the original. Bigger screen, better graphics. Cant recommend this enough

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a solid upgrade that improves on nearly every aspect of the original. It features a sharper 7.9” 1080p screen, 4K output when docked, smoother performance thanks to a new NVIDIA chip, and better battery life. The new magnetic Joy-Cons feel sturdier, and added features like GameShare and video chat bring it up to modern standards. While it’s pricier and leans on upgraded older games at launch, the Switch 2 is a powerful and versatile hybrid console

Honestly way better than the first Switch, I play Animal Crossing New Horizons and I can definitely tell the difference in gameplay. The charger is super good, its a type c with it’s own cube (like a phone charger) and I sometimes use it to charge my phone as well because it charges SO fast. (Seriously.) It’s definitely an upgrade with the bigger screen and stand, and I’d say its worth it.

Definitely a lot sturdier than the original switch love the new click in controllers and the ease of being able to play anywhere

Love the large screen size. Graphics are great especially with older games. It also runs much smoother overall.

Bigger, Blacker, and necessary if you want to play any of the new games. Which we did. There are no great changes except the screen is bigger and the default controllers are black. It feels more like enough time has passed since the original came out and someone at Nintendo wanted a yacht. If you’re looking for reviews on if the Switch 2 is worth it there are some great deep dives a quick Google search away. If you want one and can afford it, just buy it, you’re going to anyway.

Got the Switch 2 at Best Buy and love it. Smooth pickup, helpful staff, and the console is a big upgrade—faster, brighter, and perfect for gaming on the go. Highly recommend!
