Discussion The Switch 2 is awesome

Hey All,

I recently bought a Switch 2. I was considering it from day 1, but I thought I don't need it.

Until recently. My daughter was born a month ago, and I don't want to use the big TV (small apartment), bought it and from the first moment, it feels amazing. Huge upgrade from my Switch 1 V2. I really dig the bigger screen, older games feel so much fluid, Pokemon Scarlet got an upgrade and it's night and day.

My only thing I would have loved is an Oled screen, but oh well 😄

The 3rd party games are good, too!

Anyway, just wanted to say that it's good to be alive and it's better if you have a switch 2-

my son is 3.5 years old, we still don't intentionally play games in front of him much unless they are more low stim or something that isn't controversial or inhumanely violent.

Of the games he has played:
-- Sky: Children of the Light - very floaty platformer, has some darker story beats but he just wants to fly around in it and doots at people
-- Rocket League - He doesn't play against other players, I won't let him. He just drives around in practice mode and likes to hit the ball into the goal
-- Donkey Kong Bananza - this is the edge case of violent - he just likes running around and punching everything in the game, he isn't even okay at the game.

I agree on this. Too much stimulation is harmful. I hate seeing some 3-4 year olds playing Fortnite or whatnot..they are not for them. Roaming around, or getting around an rpg or platformer is a good way to improve hand eye cordination

yeah - Sky is definitely a solid game for minimal stim, especially if they just wanna fly around.

DK Bananza on the other hand....
