The original switch launched a revolution when it linked the portability of handhelds with the ability to play on his TV at home like a traditional console. But with switch 2, although it is physically large, it feels like taking a sleek, faster and more better than its predecessor – to the point that Nintendo should have called it a super switch (which apparently almost almost almost air). And after having the opportunity to try it, I was sold to her capabilities, even the maximum cost of $ 450.
Design and Display: No OLED, no harm
Switch 2 has a basic shape and sequence like original, including the joy separated from its signature. But it looks more polished all around, thanks to topped ejaculation and Silmar Bezels. Nintendo also increased the size of the facial buttons on its Joyce Stick hats and left controller, though the latter still does not feel like a traditional DPPad.

That said, the biggest upgrade is its biggest 7.9 -inch 1080p LCD display, which now supports the VRR and 120Hz refresh rate with a high dynamic range. In fact, it is so bright and very colorful where I really do not miss the OLED screen. Now a considerable rotation is that Nintendo, despite the existence of the OLED switch, does not choose a similar panel type on the switch 2. But if you remember, this model has not supported HDR, so it is not that we are seeing a decrease in display standards, even though you were good in super deep calls from OLED screens.
Also, the switch 2 feels as if it refuses its dimension because although its display is larger than the 6.2 -inch version on the base switch, it does not feel so big. It is only half -inch long (4.5 inches) and a little inches wide (9.4 vs 10.7 inches). And as its weight has also increased to 1.18 pounds (beyond 0.88 pounds), it has never felt too heavy.

Elsewhere, there is a ton of quality of life upgrade, including the second USB-C port (though the bottom side is the only one that can video out), a built-in mic and support for microSD express cards. This is the last thing, because even though the cards are more expensive, they are quite sharp than your standard fare and should be an important honor for downloading speed and load times. I acknowledge that the lack of analog shoulder buttons is a small downward, though Nintendo says it has chosen this because the Analog button will introduce a small part of the input interval and he wants to go with a more responsible solution.
Joey which features: expanded separately
During its current series, Nintendo spent a lot of time talking about the right Joey KC button, which looks like a first -party solution that people like to re -create everything about dyspores. But on Nintendo’s experience, there was no possibility of testing the new social characteristics of the console, so I was not able to dive into it.

That’s right, however, I think Joey’s new magnetic growing system is a hidden star. Not only is the area to pop them is a big button, now they are separated when you pull them left or right. No need to slide anything up or down before. By the way, it looks like a small change, but it makes the whole process so easy and who is more securely connected.
Then who has the ability to work as the mouse (for both left and right controllers). I thought it was a lot of trick, unless I play Matrod Prime 4: Beyond this Where I suddenly found myself in favor of mouse mode on standard game pad controls. Everything feels a bit more precise and if you are a fan of shooters on the PC, it is definitely able to try. The obvious limit is that when you can use on your leg, you should really have a flat surface like a table, which is on the sofa, the favorite place for your game if you cannot have an option.
Performance: move to Nintendo’s Nichist Jin Tech

Nintendo has kept quiet quiet in terms of switch 2 processor and memory. But the company has said that the system supports DLSS and hardware -based ray tracing. Now those features may not be used in every game, but it seems that it is easier for third party developers to send their titles to the company’s incoming console. When I played the new switch 2 versions Street Fighter 6For, for, for,. Cyberpank 2077 And Civilization 7They were all really smooth. And without comparing a straightforward gaming PC, it was really difficult to say that if the switch 2 was going to be a graphic corner, if it was doing exactly. Just hiccups i saw it had a long loading time CivWhich is not uncommon for a seed mayor game.
The turning point is that if you told me that some new party players of Nintendo are like games Donkey kong banana And Mario Cart World In fact, I was running on an original switch, I could not blink. In some ways, Nintendo’s ability to exclude every last performance out of his hardware and to stop hypertension in favor of its maximum stylized graphics has put a roof to the company’s ability to actually show its cats. But when you pay attention, you will really appreciate how the Sattanic Mario Cart looks happily when it is running on the 120 FPS.
I still have questions about what is happening within the new dock of switch 2 and when it is connected to TV, it has taken advantage of its growing performance to provide 4K resolutions. I also think that this is a troupe that Nintendo Switch 2 is receiving money for a reception visit. This is barely a game, but a real useful way to introduce console features to new owners and should really be installed in advance on every system. It remains to be seen how the switch 2 battery life is sustained. Nintendo says it has a larger power pack than the original switch, but it has also increased performance and a large screen, while the company claims that the run -time title may vary between two to six and half hours.
But all were told, Switch 2 is exactly what you want from the successor to Nintendo’s legendary hybrid console. In addition to the price, ie, because the console starts at 50 450, almost all of all standard accessories are priced even higher. From the Pro Controller, which now goes to the 80 (more than $ 10 higher than the original switch) or the additional couple of Joey, which costs $ 90 (another $ 10 increase). And before you are the element in the price of sports Mario Cart World And Donkey kong banana It starts with $ 80 and $ 70 as a digital download (or if you want physical carts $ 90 and $ 80).
