What do we think of the Switch 2 so far?
After owning it for one day, here are my initial thoughts:
It’s just a more powerful Switch. That’s what every new gen Xbox and PlayStation has always been, but Nintendo is always so creative with their new consoles that it is a [i]tad[/i] disappointing that it feels so same-y. That’s being said, the Switch 1 was the culmination of decades of innovation for Nintendo, and the design they came up with was the best they had ever made. So there’s not much of a need to change what was already perfect.
As it is just a more powerful Switch, Nintendo has no reason not to allow every Switch 1 game to run at 60 fps and higher resolution on the Switch 2 besides laziness and greed.
I wish there were a couple more launch titles. I don’t want an unfinished game to be released too early, but having Metroid Prime 4 as a launch title would have been awesome.
Right now I’m just enjoying finally finishing Tears of the Kingdom after not playing it for a couple years. It genuinely is a more fun experience being able to hold a stable 60 fps on my 1440p monitor. That and Mario Kart should keep my occupied enough until Metroid Prime 4 comes out, and then, eventually, The Duskbloods.

1 ReplyBullet list because I’m willing to admit I’m lazy and don’t wanna type paragraphs: - it’s a more powerful switch. People wanted one, now we have one. I swear it’s like that once scene from SpongeBob with the pistachio ice cream with ppls reaction to that. - new joyscons are very nice, size increase is noticeable and buttons feel much better. - bought MKW but haven’t had time to get around to it cuz summer semester got me all over the place with the credits im taking - playing pokemon scarlet and very much notice the improvements with frame rate and textures. Pop in is still notice but nowhere near as bad as playing on NS1. - MP4B is gonna be the big showstopper for the Joycons having mice functionality; I think it’s gonna be the best looking game on the console till the next mainline Zelda or 3D Mario. - duskbloods and kirby air riders are the more recent games I’m wanting to play. I still think it’s crazy if we got a FS exclusive (that’s more or less a BB spiritual sucessor) AND Sakurai’s return to Kirby in the same direct - game key cards at this point I’m kinda indifferent about. Yes Nintendo should offer more storage sizes instead of 2gb and 64gb cards but I get the logistics behind it with economies of scale. At the same time, a lot of games require a day 1 download to just play, let alone how much data is stored on the disk vs on console storage. Not to mention the amount of storage DLC for games is gonna take. - game pricing is an issue. They really need to lower the prices of lower first party games if they want people to play the upgraded experience on NS2. For the price they’re offering for the upgrade, I think it’s fine. Base game price needs to go lower. - Also Nintendo really dropped the ball with relaying information post direct. Little to no excuses there. TLDR: [spoiler]It’s fine. Console is gonna have a better reception as time goes on, especially with the next generation I’m guessing when the next PS and Xbox are gonna be mad high. If the biggest issue come down to money, there are far worse problems the console could be having (inb4 entire WiiU life and 3DS launch)[/spoiler]
