If you haven't pre-ordered a Switch 2 console ahead of time, several UK retailers have stock available on launch day.
Nintendo president comments on the situation with Switch 2 stock and apologizes for shortages.
I might get one in a couple years but I’m in no hurry. Nothing at launch I want to play.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Survival Kids on Switch 2 is a middling game — not because it doesn't follow the template of the Game Boy original exactly, but because it fails to leverage its rules and mechanics in interesting, engaging, and dangerous ways. There's too much repetitive fetching and crafting, too many stops and starts, and too few situations that truly test you, physically or mentally. Playing through the game, I couldn't help wonder what could have been if Unity had deployed these controls, crafting mechanics, and multiplayer options in a high-stakes open world where survival wasn't guaranteed. As it stands now, it's fine for younger and less experienced players, but not ideal for those seeking something more involved, challenging, and long-lasting."
The Switch 2 might be the fastest selling console of all time. But Jump Dash Roll argues that the new hardware has some serious caveats to consider before buying.
Pretty much just clickbait opinion. IMO, Switch 2 is everything I loved about Switch, but much more refined and perfected. As someone with a huge library of physical Switch 1 games, I’m stoked with the enhanced performance on my existing games, and very excited for the future once devs start optimizing engines for the platform. Game Chat is excellent, the controllers are excellent. Anyways, I love it so far.
Blah Blah Blah
Switch 2 is basically a more powerful Switch and that's what everyone had been asking for. They know what they're getting into.
Had mine for a couple of days and I'm having a blast with both Switch 2 and 1 games.
Switch 2 is what I wanted a more powerful switch im happy with it.
Do I wish it was oled sure does it bother me not much
Wake up and smell the plastic. The sky isn't falling here, your expectations just weren't met. You expected Nintendo to not play it safe with their (best-selling) console, as they have since after the Gamecube.
Thankfully, in gaming, not everything has to be "technically accomplished" or completely different to prove its existence to bring inspiration to the table. Consoles are remembered by their software and the Switch 2 just got here.
The idea that the focus on third party is bad is really dumb. They only have really 3 launch titles and one of the issues with the switch was its inability to run a lot of the biggest games. They have addressed both of those issues by highlighting third party support.
Confirmed beyond doubt that the Switch 2 did not sell out. People should vote with their wallet and not support £75 games imo.
Hope Switch 2 will sell well despite the price.
Man, I can’t say I’m interested at all, but I’ll get one for the next Fire Emblem and Zelda. I can wait though.
I may get one at some point but I’m in no hurry.
I walked right into Walmart no preorder yesterday picked up the Mario bundle and pro controller and they had many in the case. Looks like Nintendo had a good first day supply available.
