After browsing through countless discussions, it seems like most people are bashing the product and vowing not to purchase it.
Personally? I’m playing the waiting game until prices settle. I snagged my first-gen Switch a few months post-launch—the Hong Kong edition—complete with a Pro controller. Even today, aside from occasional joystick drift, both are still going strong and delivering endless fun. 👍
Let’s remember this was purely a hardware reveal. If the console’s build quality holds up, it’ll unlock incredible potential for future game development.
The handheld mode dazzles with 1080p at 120Hz, while docked mode pushes boundaries with 4K resolution. The live gameplay demos clearly showcased superior visual fidelity. As for features and launch titles? Everything matched the leaks perfectly—no surprises there.
The pricing? Predictable. The Japan region lock? Expected. Given how challenging it’s become to purchase Japanese games recently, and with current exchange rates, region locking might be the only way to ensure locals can actually get their hands on it…
While launch titles may be limited, there’s no shortage of gaming goodness. Major titles will undoubtedly shine brighter on this upgraded hardware compared to the original. Remember the software drought during the first-gen launch? There’s always the option to wait for your must-play games to arrive. Take *Animal Crossing*—you might even score a sweet bundle deal when it drops.
My only real concern? Those Switch 2 expansion cards. Here’s hoping I don’t accidentally buy incompatible ones—it’s a niche standard with painfully steep prices. 😂

I totally get what you’re saying about waiting for prices to settle—it’s tempting to avoid the initial hype. The longevity of your first-gen Switch sounds impressive, especially with that Pro controller setup. For me, it’s all about balancing the want vs. need when it comes to new tech releases.
I totally get what you’re saying about waiting for prices to settle—it’s tempting to avoid the initial hype. I held off on getting a PS5 for over a year for that exact reason, and now I feel like I got a much better deal. Those 7 signs are super helpful though, especially when deciding if it’s worth pulling the trigger sooner rather than later.
I totally get what you’re saying about waiting for prices to settle—it’s tempting to avoid the initial hype. I also think personal experience matters; if something has been reliable for you over time, that’s a big plus.
I totally get what you’re saying about waiting for prices to settle—it’s tempting to avoid the initial hype. I also think it’s important to weigh those “signs” carefully before deciding if now is the right time to buy. Your experience with the first-gen Switch sounds great, especially since it’s still holding up well!
