Switch Is the Switch 2 WORTH buying?

[TranslationIsLost1.5]

i need help on this one
is it SERIOUSLY worth buying
idk if it's as gud as the original switch or has worthwhile exclusives
i might save it up in future when i go to college

there's a couple of first party games out atm.

mario kart world
donkey kong banaza
kirby air rider's
hyrule warriors age of imprisonment

a new mario tennis game comes out in about 2 month's where mario and some of friends get turned into baby's (yeah nintnedo wth) that's all the first party i can think of. IMO it's your call. some switch games don't work on the switch 2 so keep that in mind.

I don't know how many more times this question will be asked here but yes it is a good console and if you want to buy it then go for it, you definitely won't regret it. Even though there are a lot of haters, it's a great console. That's my opinion.

 

[moonbits]

maybe ask yourself if you want it or not and why

If the switch is one of your main platforms, I dont see why not. Yes first party wise it could be better, but from what's been released (plus upcoming games like gen 10 pokemon and fire emblem fortunes weaves) its not that bad and its a upgrade overall despite some issues. I'm personally happy with my switch 2 and like using it in handheld whenever I dont feel like playing my ps5 or pc

 

[Nebulon_Galaxy]

at this moment? Hell no, wait 2 more years

 

[CheesyExplosive]

NO... unless you want to deal with "nintendo switch 2 fruad"

 

[Jeff]

There's some really good hits.

Mario Kart World
Donkey Kong Bananza
Kirby and the Forgotten Land DLC
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment
Kirby Air Riders
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is coming this week

So there's some good exclusives.

My personal opinion is that you should wait until there are a larger selection of titles out that you want to have. I assume that since you are asking the question you are already on the fence and not sure if you want to make the investment. The Nintendo Switch 2 is not like other consoles have been in the past where you would need to rely on scalpers or inflated prices if you could not get one at launch. Nintendo has done an exceptional job with making sure they are stocked. Having said that, if you are afraid of rising prices that will most likely occur in the future due to chip supply problems or if you have massive FOMO, then you should get one. I personally don't see any "must have" that would drive me to purchase one yet. Maybe Metriod 4 when it comes out but we'll see how well that reviews. Mario Kart World has been kind of "meh".

At the end of the day, do your own diligence and don't listen to people posting on the internet. I'd make the argument that the price of all current systems (PS5, Switch 2, Xbox Series) is making the entry into the platform harder and harder.

prime 4 isn't switch 2 exclusive

 

[moonbits]

prime 4 isn't switch 2 exclusive

it's gonna look so ass on Switch 1 might as well treat it like a 2 exclusive.

 

[Nebulon_Galaxy]

going to look great on my pc tho

 

[GeraVet106]

In my opinion, I'm going to wait a year, since there aren't many games and you can still play the Switch 1 games. Another thing I've noticed is that Switch 2 games are game key cards. Does it seem like we're saying goodbye to physical media?

 

[VampireLord1024VampireLord1024's icon]

No, since you have those silly game key card things were the actual game has to be downloaded by some code or something like that.

 

[Jeff]

prime 4 isn't switch 2 exclusive

My mistake.

 

[GeraVet106]

No, since you have those silly game key card things were the actual game has to be downloaded by some code or something like that.

its like another type of digital version games

Nintendo is awful right now.

The Eshop doesn't work, their policies are outrageous, the new Mario Kart is ass, the controllers still have drift and their hardware is pitifully outdated.

If playing Donkey Kong Bananza and Kirby Air Riders is just THAT important to you, then yeah, get a Switch 2. But I highly recommend not getting it until more worthwhile exclusives come out.

on emulators it will be look and play even better than Switch 2

I like how EA has the worst reputation on the internet, but nintendo has some of the worst buisness practices on earth (even before the Switch) and way less ppl complained about it until recently

When I sold my 3ds for the new3dsxl I found out I couldnt just log into my old account, I had to do this "deactivate and transfer your account" thing

I said fuck it and modded it and I never bought a nintendo game since.
Also I cant believe how many times they expect you to re buy mario 1 for five euros, werent ps1 games on the psn sold for less?
