Launch day for the Nintendo Switch 2! If you’ve got one now, bravo. Honestly, hope you pre-ordered — those things vanished faster than cookies at a bake sale. But yeah, if you missed the April pre-order boat, you might be in a pickle. Popular doesn’t even begin to cover it — like, remember when Tickle Me Elmo had people camping outside stores? Kind of like that.
So, what’s this hype about? Well, the Switch 2 is like the Switch’s cooler big cousin. Picture it: bigger, heftier Joy-Cons you almost want to high-five, a fancy new dock, and a kickstand that’s like, “I got you, fam.”
The screen? Oh boy, it’s a whooping 7.9 inches! Just imagine, it’s practically flaunting its 1080p resolution (take that, old Switch and your 720p). Dock it, and you might just witness games in 4K — wild, right? On the go, the LCD display gives you up to 120 frames per second with HDR. Well, if the game supports it, that is. It’s like taking a visual holiday.
And let’s talk bundles — yep, they’ve got ’em. Mario Kart’s one, along with peripherals that sound fancy. I’m eyeing those updates to catch the best deals; fingers crossed for deals that don’t disappear quicker than afternoon shadows.
Need to snag one? You might want to swing by Walmart, GameStop, Newegg, Best Buy, or Target. Jeez, that’s a list. Probably worth checking often, like you’re on a mission to find the Holy Grail or something.
Anyway, I might circle back if my brain decides finding a Switch 2 is a matter of life and death. Or not. Who knows.
