What are your thoughts on Nintendo Switch 2?
They lost me with no OLED screen. And the entry price of $449 (probably like 549€ in Czechia) is too steep for me.

I doubt I will ever be done playing tears of the kingdom and breath of the wild which work fine on my switch. Maybe some day. I am not much of a gamer. Just a Zelda fan mostly..
Going for LCD is going two steps back from a standard they themselves set earlier. Another “fiat incentives” driven decision.
Přichází nějaký nový? Možná ho koupíme klukům na Vánoce, ty minulý bylo v Alze za desítku. Trošku overkill.
Jj… nekdy v cervnu. Entry price 450$ takze u nas minimalne 450€, spis pocitam +50-100€.
Overkill to je urcite. Ale zase neni jine zarizeni, ktere by takhle nativne umelo lokalni (sedim na gauci vedle brachy) multiplayer aniz bys musela neco sileneho dokupovat.
Takze pokud jste nemeli “jednicku” a uz vubec ne tu s OLED displejem, tak bych do toho sel. Za ty penize nic moc lepsiho nevymyslite.
Leda PS5 s dvema ovladaci… ale to si nevezmou na cesty a tak.
Steamdeck everything else falls short
Máme xbox, mladej na tom jede Minecraft a HotWheels jak drak. Ale kdysi jsem měla wii a to by pro ně oba bylo perfektní. Strašně moc her z Wii Party disku bylo fakt poklad. Hráli jsme to ve skupince ožralí každý víkend, tak vím 😌😆
I have one with OLED. But to be honest, since they “upgraded” it so much that my GOG library stopped working, I don’t play much as I did.
That’s the magic of consoles I think - ease of use.
Hi bro 🤟😉🏴☠️ It sounds like you’re not alone in your disappointment! The OLED screen on the original Switch really set a new standard for handheld gaming, so it’s understandable that you’d expect it to be part of the Switch 2, especially at that price point.
And you’re right, the $449 entry price is steep especially when considering the cost of accessories and potential game prices. Nintendo has always prided itself on making gaming accessible, but this feels like they’re targeting more premium buyers with this release.
I think they may need to rethink the pricing strategy if they want to attract a broad audience. Still, if the games and performance live up to the hype, it could justify the cost for some, but it’s definitely not going to be for everyone. What would you need to see from the Switch 2 to make it worth the investment?
It's probably not a day one buy for me, but its a Nintendo product, so unfortunately they have me by the balls. They get you with the first party offerings.
Alza nacenila na 12.490.
Yea I think if Switch was 3rd most succesful console in the world (and the 2nd being also Nintendo) they can get a little cocky with the pricing.
Also I somewhat guess the LCD is there to improve margins, leaving open space to improve in the future.
As well there were speculations that they were not able to get their hands on so many OLED displays at once - so they basically need to wait for initial FOMO to fade out a bit.
For me it’s not a day 1 buy anyw. I am simply not that guy. But eventually I would want to own that, because I find the ease of going from TV to handheld in the matter of second a really nice feature.
Same here. Although Switch was only my second after Wii I really think they are good in making smart solutions.
I love my Steam Deck, and still my no. 1 go to - is a PC… but Switch Lite and later my Switch OLED were a great addition mostly for travelling.
Ok i understand. 🏴☠️🤟😉
