The Switch 2 is everything I wanted from an updated Switch. It feels more premium than the original. The larger screen and joycons feel great. It runs Switch 1 games so you have a large library from the start, with some games being patched for better performance and a lot of switch games just performing better without updates.

Loads faster, games run smooth. Older pro controllers are barely compatible even when updated, if you play on the TV get a new one. I have a top of the line TV and it looks great. No issues, virtual cards and card keys are the future, they take some getting used to, but are nice. I also have a PS5 Pro so those talking about this is not as good, it’s Apples and Oranges, Nintendo was never competing in that arena. People play it for the games.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a little frustrated waiting for the system-only and mot the bundle with Mario Kart to become available. For several weeks, it continued to show it in stock with marketplace sellers who had suspicious reviews about pre-opened boxes, so i wanted to order directly from Walmart.

This console feels incredibly premium. the tech inside is fantastic! considering this is also a handheld device. The menus are simple but easy to navigate. Transferring from my original Switch to this one was easier than it's ever been for any consoles. I haven't had it long, but I love the device and I look forward to the next 8 years with it. A worthwhile upgrade.

Portability is as great as ever with the Switch 2; transitioning from handheld to docked is a snap. So far, in my experience, all my Switch games have been playing just fine on the new system(and I do have a fairly good-sized collection). The new, updated controller feels awesome to use and comfortable to hold, with smooth button pressing and analog stick motion. I thought the magnetic joycons would be a bad idea, but it turns out the attachment is very strong and sturdy, quite easy to remove when wanting to, though. The YouTube app is still available, for anybody wanting to watch videos or listen to music, instead of playing video games for some reason. The only thing Nintendo needs to do now is make it possible for us to download the big-name streaming apps for watching tv shows and movies, then who needs PS or XB? lol

Switch 2 has honestly been such a great upgrade from Switch 1. Granted I upgraded from the OG SW1 but load times are stupid fast, FPS are remarkable and though this could be be a Switch Pro, I’m glad to own one and would def recommend to anyone on the fence about upgrading!

It's a lovely system, but as my title shows the system j more. Like a "pro" model. Similar to the PS4 and the PS4 Pro upgrades. Still a lot of fun to be had ofd the games, but i still (for now) find myself playing mkat games on my lite than this model.

My overall experience with the switch 2 is breath taking everything from the overall hardware to the software. The quality of the hardware is second to none. The joycons are a joy to use and comfortable to grip and the thumb sticks are buttery smooth it truly feels like premium product I would not recommend it enough.

This is a fantastic item from Nintendo! I have purchased Nintendo items in the past -- from the Gameboy Advance to the Wii and now to the Switch 2. The ability to play in 3 modes is great; and having access to games on older consoles (even some originally owned by conpetitors such as Sega Genesis) through the Expansion Packs is mindblowing!!! I am going to enjoy my Switch 2 for years!

Loving the console so far! Battery life definitely isn’t the best, but the image quality definitely explains it. As long as you have a portable charger, you would be golden! Size-wise, it’s so much more ergonomic if you have bigger hands, but still would recommend a grip case for added support. I used to have to carry an external portable case for my Nintendo Switch OLED, but with the Nintendo Switch 2, I have no issues with catching smaller details while playing in handheld mode! I would highly recommend it if you have the funds for it.
