I was in a GameStop today with my son to use up a $50 gift card he got over the holidays…but while I was in the store…a father came in with 2 kids under 6 and asked about buying a switch and he chose the OLED and a Mario game…probably these kids first game system ever and if taken care of can be used for the next 10 years.

The answer is yes up should still buy a Switch in 2024, people should not listen to any YouTuber who says otherwise as there’s a huge library of great games on Switch which in my opinion makes it the best system on the market with a wide variety of games and it has the best exclusives.

I found a steal locally for a used Swith Lite with some really good games I got essentially for free and never thought I'd enjoy playing the Switch lite due to the larger bezels and smaller screen but the lighter weight and form factor really surprised me. It feels a lot better than playing a regular Switch to me. Kinda wish there was an OLED Lite with smaller bezels because the Lite really feels like the most perfect handheld console ever, in the hands.

There are so many games for the Switch. I am a senior, I bought a Switch Oled the beginning of 2023, I Used to played my Nintendo DS machines, a lot, for years. My favorite game series is Fire Emblem and two new games had come out I couldn't play - so I broke down and got an Oled. I have been delighted! I have twelve games now, including Breath of the Wild - I am having a great time. I like that there are so many second hand games that I can buy are sale prices.

Buying refurbished *from Nintendo* is a fantastic option. Both my Wii U and my Switch are refurbished from them and worked like new. I'm gonna do that with the new one too.

Honestly at this point if you're interested in a standard Switch just find a good deal on a used one.

I was waiting for the switch two and decided to get the oled TOTK model around September of last year to premptively prepare for this year, and its been great. I feel like it was a good decision, especially since the oled won't come out till next year. It gives me a chance to play through the games I have not played yet on a nice crisp oled screen.

I only had a Switch Lite for quite some time and in January I decided to get me an OLED just to have a better expirience playing on the big screen. I agree with you, it was a smart choice, specially if the rumors are correct and we have to wait more than a year for Switch successor. I'm having tons of fun with the OLED in ways that the Lite couldn't give me.

7:02 I have the same Switch OLED model you have. I love that design, and even bought a matching case.

Bought the V2 in the beginning of 2022. Then traded it in for Pokémon OLED edition when it dropped, and it’s been an absolutely amazing experience! I’ve got a massive backlog of games to play that I’m very excited about. Could care less WHEN the next gen will be announced.

I had a lite loved it even if I couldn’t put it on the tv but now I have a Switch Oled

[Handnail]

Got my Oled in January not really regretting it, mostly because of the colour speaking of colour who has two soft purple/ lilac joy con (thumbnail picture) on their switch? pastel sure but same colour??? I need answers!

I agree to buy the Switch OLED in 2024! Thank God Switch 2 is not out yet. I need to catch up on completing my games before the new release! Switch OLED in my opinion is the GOAT. Why? I grew up with game & watch and I experienced every game boy from the original to the game boy pocket, GBA, the SP, the DS, all the way to the Switch OLED. So I really appreciate the amazing screen, technology and games that are played today. Anyone that complains about under powered and all that crap don’t appreciate at all what they have in their hands. Spoiled brats! Nintendo could have stopped making portables with the 3DSXL and I would be content for life! Just grab a color Gameboy from eBay and play that for a month. Believe me you will appreciate the Switch like never before!

Great video! I'm one of those people who has tons of old games and one of the few who bought a Wii U late in the life cycle... I think I avoided the Switch at first due to my late adoption and due to the fact that I wrongly felt the power upgrade wasn't enough. I was wrong. Nintendo's graphic artists (and Namco's -- they work together) are so freaking good that the Nintendo art style is worth many graphics cards. Anyway.... at this point I actually am going to wait, even though I agree with your points about playing new Nintendo games. If I wanted to play the new games Right. Now. and wasn't planning on day 1 adoption of Switch 2, then yeah... I'd get an OLED. But right now I have so many old games to play, that I'm fine. And when I do finally get a Switch 2, I will get to play all the old Switch 1 games I missed (unless it's not backwards compatible... then I'll get a Switch 1 at that point). I actually might stock up on Switch 1 games when the sales you mention happen... and wait to play them until I have a system! Thanks for catering to the small group of us who don't have a Switch yet, with this video!

My hubby gave me a switch lite for my 50th and I absolutely love it! Hours of ACNH already played on it! I don’t care the new one is coming out soon - already gathering my library of games.

When do you think they’ll announce pre order dates?

[troygroff]

The Switch OLED you showed in the beginning is what edition? The orange and purple one. I love the colors! Thanks!

[gpocketgamer]

I talked a family member into buying a Switch last month, and they are absolutely loving it.

[rarelyaccepted]

I bought mine 2 months ago with klarna and I jus paid it off and don’t regret it one bit💯 Nintendo switch has been amazing

[TangerineBliss]

So cool about the Switch 2! All that info was really great for me as a mom. I decided to get "myself" a switch lite to share with my little boy until he's older to take good care of a bigger Switch, and now I know that by the time he's at a good age to be holding such an expensive device, there'll actually be an even better one available. 👏
