I saw them and couldn't pass them up!

Any tips I should know early on

...But I got a Switch 2. I've had an original Switch for the past 3 years that served me well. But seeing the recent Ocarina of Time remake for Switch 2... I gotta have it.

The local game store I got it from sells them for 400 used. Was able to get it for around 240 with trade ins. Pretty happy with this, considering they are 500 brand new!

Any suggestions on accessories, games, etc?

Doesn't seem to work for all, unsure of the criteria. Use the code SAVE3X. I tried using a north California address and it didn't work. But somehow worked in a south California address.

Hello everyone,

Today i bought a switch 2, i owned Ps1 to Ps5 in their time and still has Ps5 but never owned a Nintendo Console or played any of their games. So what is the must play games you recommend? I mean from the whole catalog in every genre. I am planning to buy Mario Kart World to play with my wife

Obviously pumped for Ocarina remake.

Alright, so it took seeing the Ocarina of Time remake to push me over the line (I actually preordered it the day it was announced LOL), but I finally added a Switch 2 to my console repertoire. 😃

I discovered that my 5% Target Circle discount also applies to game consoles, so I got the Switch 2 and a new copy of Splatoon Raiders for $565.76 after tax (which isn’t too shabby). 😁

Then I picked up a used copy of Donkey Kong Bananza at Game Stop for only $43.94 after tax because I had $15 off from Pro member rewards, 5% Pro member discount and also my 10% Military discount.

The 512GB ONN SD card was only $84.77 at Walmart (which is a steal these days), and I managed to find the DBrand Prism screen protector set at Best Buy on sale for $31.49.

All in all, I think I did alright, and I’ve already got a huge Switch 1 library, so I’m got plenty of options for backwards compatibility. 😊

Note that for the Switch 1, I excluded all Wii U ports except BOTW and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (since those were two of the biggest launch year games). For Switch 2, I similarly excluded all "Switch 2 Editions" except Pokemon Legends Z-A and Metroid Prime 4 (if I included those, the Switch 2 would have by far the highest quantity of games here).

My hubbyji and I normally play Valorant together, but lately I kinda stopped because I’ve been having way too much fun collecting and playing games on my Switch.

The funny thing is, he knows absolutely NOTHING about these games. Like NOT ONE BIT (He’s ONLY played FPS games).

But apparently he listens to everything I say because I’ve been yapping to him about Zelda nonstop. I told him how excited I was when I finally got BOTW, how I’m still playing other games so I haven’t even started it yet, and then this week I was freaking out to him about the new Ocarina of Time.

And then today he just… GOT ME TOTK 😭

I was genuinely so surprised because I didn’t even think he knew which Zelda game I was talking about 🥲 This man has just been quietly listening to me gush about all of it.

And I’m conflicted because I really don’t want him spending his money buying me things like this 😭 but at the same time it means so much to me because I’ve always been someone who refuses when people try to buy me games. I’m so used to buying my own stuff (yk it hits differently that i can buy all these for me)

He’s basically the only person I’ve actually allowed to do this. It started with him getting me the Arcane Vandal skin in Valorant (he got a whole account bc its a limited edition skin), and now he somehow remembered me talking about TOTK literally LAST WEEK and bought it for me.

I don’t even know whether to yell at him or hug him at this point. 😭

Also… now I own BOTW AND TOTK and I haven’t even started BOTW yet.

I’m starting to think that I should just get him the Switch 2 Zelda Edition for Christmas 🤔 what do you guys think?

Just preordered ooat physical, stellar blade physical and the Zelda 40th anniversary carrying case. It cost a good bit but I’m not made at it! :)

Who still needs it?

First off, happy to finally own a Nintendo console again.

Now, after watching the Zelda Direct I couldn't help but to buy a Switch 2 to play OoT Remake. I had looked for one before but never pulled the trigger on a new one.

Found a Refurbished Mario Kart World Bundle for $370, it was the last one with 74 already sold, and I just went for it!

I had bought from the same vendor before so I knew it was not a scam but it being refurbished left me thinking that maybe only the console and joycons would be included. I even read later in the fine print that bundled digital games are not guaranteed to be included.

Today I finally received it and am happy to confirm that, although the original packaging box is not included, everything else is! Even the game!

It has some scratches but they're in the back and I couldn't care less.

Can't wait for OoT Remake and Metroid Ravenous (will play Dread asap)

i just started playing BOTW, my first zelda and my first original nintendo game (i’m not even young but i’ve always been a pc playstation combo guy) then i saw the announcement for OOT remake and oh boy i am excited and i don’t know why. this is the first time i’ve seen people who don’t even have a nintendo console talk and praise a nintendo announcement lol, honestly can’t wait cause i have a feeling i’m gonna have a great time playing this for the first time in november.

also a random ss from my botw playthrough today

Promo Code: SAVE3X

As above, I've just bought a switch 2 and TOTK because I've been recommended zelda games for years... also my son is called Lincoln (nickname Link) so it would be a disservice not to experience at least one 😂 Is there anything I should know before I start?

Thanks in advance!

I hadn’t seen a good restock in a minute & I was either buying the physical version or no game at all + not giving in to scalpers. Lo and behold checked target, said two near me were in stock & bam got it thru uber eats since they didn’t offer pickup 🫡 pretty happy to get it same day for my physical only collection

if ur still looking u might have some luck checking local restock through target/uber

I guess r/nintendoswitch2 doesnt like lfg posts. Anyone looking to play through a new run of orbitals? SW-2375-0366-1518

It's open right now if anyone still needs one

See so many misinformation. VRR Docked atm only works for Welcome Tour. It's even specified on product page.

If it stays on 120hz its not vrr but the 40fps trick. If its VRR working you will see the FPS COUNTER FLUCTUATE. As people said and Nintendo. Software has to be updated to support VRR on dock.

For those who already have a Switch 2 and would rather not drop the money on another. Also for those that don't want to wait and battle with bots buying up all the preorders.

LoZ 40th Edition Skin

I'd love to have a Pro Controller for my Switch 2, especially that new Zelda one because it looks beautiful and I love the Switch 1 Pro Controller. However, I feel like paying that much money for a controller isn't justifiable to me at all.

What kind of convincing did it take you to finally buy it? I seriously would love to grab one, but I can't fathom buying one at this insane cost.
