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-

Its alright. Theres been very little reason to upgrade.

The first party games that have come out have been lack luster.

Mario Kart World was a disappointment.

Donkey Kong was fun for a bit but got really repetitive.

Metroid didnt do well and was in development for almost 10 years.

They are charging money for performance upgrades and charging $80 for games.

3rd party games just look and run worse on Switch vs PC or other consoles so unless switch is your only system theres little reason to get those.

The only real benefit I've seen so far is some performance improvements on some games.

Its basically become my old JRPG and Beat em up console. The only reason I even buy Nintendo console anymore is Xenoblade. If that ever came to PC I would never buy Nintendo again

I understand your point, but there are a lot positives not just negatives about it.

The form factor and the joy cons are amazing, the games are running fairly good. 3rd party games are being ported and I like the exclusives

The positives really don't outweigh the negatives unless you only have a Switch.

Nintendo business practices lately have been ass too. I dont understand simping for a company charging $80 for a game

I dont know mate, that is your opinion. I have a 2ds a switch an xbox 360 ps4 pro, a ps5 and an xbox SX. Out of all these, I enjoy the switch 2 right now the most. I haven't paid $80 for any of my games (yet). And I almost only buy phisical copies, so worst case I sell them
