People whom saw DF messup has been saying this all along but people are deaf to this until now. This doesn't surprise me one bit.

@DTfearTheBEARD There comes a tradeoff you want $600+ OLED Switch 2? And with more GPU the battery suffer what else did you want? A 20lb Switch 2 power brick that you can't take everywhere?

Did people not realize if they could be OLED on Switch 2 no one would be able to afford one. OLED at $600+ you think people will buy it? No, one has to consider OLED can't do for what the price Nintendo is asking for at that size of 7.9". Those complaining hasn't gone to Live Experience or watch people streaming how good the LCD is. This isn't 2017 LCD this is what those naysayers are promoting right now. The LCD is 2025 tech they aren't the same as 2017 LCD tech or 2019 OLED. OLED comes with a cost and those saying they want OLED let me ask you got $600+ for Switch 2 right now???

@Real_Obsi And your living CyberPunk 2077 world as well. So pointed debunked...

@Spaceman44 They act like Key-Card you first need to install the game with the Disc even though the disc is just the downlead and the other your using your account to download the game aka Code-in-Box tied to your account so same process. One requires the Switch cart inserted to play the other your PS account is the registered Lic holder for the game. So nothing different here.

It's only 4 days...to get those numbers is Record Breaking....

@CStallion I also mention that someone else makes these exSD not Onn but people dismiss that and said they aren't reliable. At least it's from Lexar that a bonus to hear. I had no problem it was either SanDisk or Lexar that made these and that doesn't cheapen their quality products.

Where are people reading "Key-Card" at?

@dark_potato I have a sneaking suspicion that they'll release a 4GB compatible Switch 2 (likely Oled model with better battery life) in 3-4 years.

And you want to pay 600 or more for it right? Have you watched any of the people that went to Live Events and how they mentioned the display was more brighter then their OLED that they brought along to be side by side display comparisons? It's going to be more then 8-10 years before we see a upgrade as the OLED currently can't come down in price to make it a 450.99 console.

@CStallion That's the issue people dismiss Onn 512g exSD and guess what they are also sold out or hard to find. No they wanted to buyup the lot and scalp them to Switch 2 owners is the reason. I got lucky day I saw them I bought four 512gb to have and use.

Wait, DF is still around.....after all their missteps and not correcting their own PS rants view?

UK is a PS world that fact Switch 2 can make the sales it does is a record breaking. And those trying to dismiss the sales figures regardless of region is just whinners. Those naysayers are just debbie downers because Switch 2 is a massive hit.

Nintendo had nothing to be worried about. People are overblowing this story.

Have to look at Amazon US to find a good travel case that can take the dock with me.

Scalpers cry your eyes out....

But but it will crash like the WiiU sales..right....

At least make this "Key-Card" for Switch 2.....

Hori 24 has worked fine for my usage and is compact compared to the other offerings.

@jbrodack Based on what Facts?? You think Walmart or BestBuy or Amazon are any better? Retro doesn't and will never carry new Switch 2 units. Retro doesn't get new Nintendo Products.

I wished they make it look like previous Grips....But I like the design of the Dbrand for it's amount of protection.

People need to get reality check there's no price drop or new model for at least 8 years. And you will be waiting a long time if that is the case. Even older Switch 1 games will benefit from the upgrade even if they don't have Switch 2 patches. So those naysayers are just making excuses. Now if you can't afford one currently that's different story all together.

@MrGawain If customers don't buy them, they are likely to change their tune.
Unfortunately, the publishers are making those choices for Nintendo at this point. Now if they follow CyberPunk2077 maybe but I've seen plenty right now EA and some others by sheer greed are doing this regardless. They could care less about the consumers.

I wish I could play MKW but I first have to setup the two Switch 2 and get Temper glass installed before I screwup the display first. Then I have to update and transfer my data over to Switch 2 and get my other Switch OLED to transfer to the 2nd Switch 2 as the niece has it so it's easier to transfer the data over.

@coolioam The Dock fan still cools the dock. It doesn't cool the Switch 2 unfortunately. Dbrand has air holes to allow for the air flow.

@h3s I had to match the 60W adapter and 60W USBC cable so I don't burn the house down.

I got a tablet so I will put all the Switch Zelda notes on that so it's bigger to see and hear.

For now I am going to use the Dbrand and see how those feel as if I want to use Mouse feature the Dbrand gripe seems to do that better.

I am now buying extra power bricks and extended USBC power cables now...

With more "POWER" what would one expect???? Guess time to find a good long USBC cable and brick charger to hand all those Power Watts. Went to look for 60W or higher brick and cable able to handle the watts charging this is when I don't have Docked and using handheld mode.

Finally got Yunobo from GameStop....yah....

@Kestrel Local retailers have them in stock so unless you can point specific retailers they have inventory coming so one needs to give more specific here. Also your Switch 1 has backlogs of games to use on Switch 2 so to say there's no game is being very disingenuous here.

However, according to a short quote from Kaoko Kino, president of Japanese video game consultancy firm Kyos Inc, publishers are "thanking" Nintendo for Game-Key Cards, noting that the move will help offset the rising cost of game development (thanks, Bloomberg).
That is a joke...notice they never made any consumer survey to confirm this at all. This is all echo chamber talk. Sorry but this doesn't offset rising cost. Publishers aren't for the most part the Devs/Programmers. Digital games don't lower the MSRP. You put on Full cart and charge accordingly. Was it that hard? Make "Key-Card" and "Full" Cart and let consumers choose - I can surmise buyers will go "Full" cart first.

@jbrodack Gamestop needs to go out of business
For what, Please explain that? You think corporation is consumer friendly think you should look at some big expanses of land in Siberia for sale.

This comes down to poor manager. Why why?? Use rubber band or tape the receipt to the bag? They made this into a manager caused this was nothing from Nintendo or GameStop corp. This comes down to local manager that did a DS move and caused GameStop $$ loss and will cost them their job. So don't blame the employees their manager did poor job and they get blamed for it. At least news is some of them are getting replacement which is good.

If this was full cart NS2 that be different but it's not.

@TheBoilerman That's a choice people make regardless - the early adopters have no issues since this is second gen meaning all the kinks have been followed through. So not sure exactly what your referring to here or what issues is that your talking about.

we believe we’ll be able to meet that demand all the way through the summer

This is to combat scalpers whom are crying now they can't sell their inventory at MSRP losses now.

Debbie downer here for buyers. This will stay on my exSD card with DLC and never be deleted. At least on family plan then we can share ....

The Visuals are night and day comparisons. More clear and crisp to see. Load times are faster as well.

Preordered Amazon Edition for now.

Not sure what people are saying but all comparisons online with cy21 or his youtube shows it clearly on the levels of PS5 graphics. Not sure why NL and people keep harping disingenuous comparisons that it's graphics any less.

Got a order for controller...

Went and paid and pickup my two Switch 2 preorder and other stuff that I ordered with the Switch 2.

@nessisonett Switch 2 will keep making inventory what are you ranting about? People been saying save up for Switch 2 so you mean you never tried to do that all this year or from last until this year knowing Switch 2 was coming??? Granted there are some in options beyond their control but those that can would do to save up or see what can be saved for just one Switch 2 purchase.

Have my two Switch 2 PreOrders ready and going to go for Midnight pickup.

Key-Card with locked DLC one time and no one else can get it. How is that even worth buying the game. A Code-in-Box is what they should do instead.

Purchased Switch 1 edition and will get the upgrade for Switch 2.

@enya64 Same here pickup four 512G exSD since I will have two Switch 2 and a pair for standard game install and the other two will be for "Key-Card" games.

What everyone fails to face reality the more power you want the less the battery last. That's what happens on anything portable gaming consoles. There comes a sacrifice - people wanted more "Power" and they got it and now they are complaining the battery doesn't last. What did people think would be sacrificed in the name of "Power".
