    Bigger and more powerful thoughtful design to fix problems people had with the original switch like the kickstand and having charge ports on top and bottom of the console the battery life does feel rather short in handheld mode but overall its a worth upgrade in my opinion and some games even get free performance updates like Pokémon scarlet and violet that make playing them on the switch 2 the way to go

    Enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. I thought I would regret the purchase. Sure I still don't like Nintendo's terms of service but it's a nice little handheld.

    Terrific system and a great upgrade for Switch 1 owners. As the owner of a Day 1 Switch 1 and owner of a vast collection, I can say that the upgrade this system provides to many games is worth the purchase.

    From the first switch to the 2. It was a major upgrade all around. Improvement of life all the way to the free game upgrades (I’m not paying for an upgraded version of an old game. Even if it is just $10.) The upgrade for Pokemon Scarlet was amazing and much needed though

    An OUTSTANDING successor to the Switch 1! Running games at 60FPS in 4k is a breath of fresh air for the classic Nintendo console that it desperately needed! Launch games such as Super Mario Kart World, Cyberpunk 2077, and Split Fiction truly shine and show off just what the Switch 2 is capable of! April Switch 1 titles such as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild/ Tears of The Kingdom, Super Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 3, and more have recieved Switch 2 upgrades that give them a whole new life with higher resolutions and enhanced performance! The Switch 2 is the console i have been waiting for!

    This is what a handheld video game console should be. I love that Nintendo is still letting you decide to either play on your TV or handheld. The switch 2 looks great compared to the switch 1. I'm also so happy we have true 1080p 4k HDR in a Nintendo console. The user interface is still the switch 1, but they're called classics for a reason right. We just need more switch 2 exclusive games.

    Screen resolution is awesome, and processing speeds are super quick. Feels great to play, and there's a lot of improvements that were greatly needed from the original Switch (like the kickstand being more supportive). That being said, this console suffers from what the original Switches did at launch: poor battery life. I don't take my Switch a lot of places so I usually have a charger nearby, but the battery doesn't last long at all. 2 hours max I'd say. Wait for the inevitable OLED model or something similar before you buy.

    The switch 2 is definitely an upgrade, it has vibrant colors, a noticable preformance boost, and an insane leap in speaker quality. If you play exclusively nintendo games, and have no desire to reach out into a ps5 or pc territory this is worthy piece of hardware, thag being said if you play on pc, ps5 or xbox the preformance can be lack luster. Its a great handheld but a underwhelming console, especially for those of us who keep it docked. Personally i enjoy it and dont regret my purchase, but this console upgrade isn’t worth it for the hardware/specs you’re getting.

    Future of VR/NES/N64 before vr games aren't demos.

    This new Switch 2 is probably Nintendo's AR/VR console and the reviews have been good before the next last usual consoles that are not AR/VR with graphics that can run everything during the end of the next console cycle with Nintendo and other using more devices than consoles/graphics cards, that add gameplay, and will be about new gameplay and probably compatible with other ar/vr hybrids and vr mainstream electronics. I't better together it before certain sell-out IPs are launched next year.

    Great device! With much improved resolution and screen. This should be the main improvement on this generation. Although Main reason for this purchase is the donkey Kong game. The old game is still working on this new generation.

    Not enough new games for it yet, but it runs switch 1 rpgs like butter, worth for those games that were barable on the switch 1, but not worth if you have a switch oled imo
