*_Hello everyone, thanks for watching!_* ⇨ Checkout the Best Switch Accessories: ruclips.net/video/AaRQLI_OlKE/видео.html How important is the extra battery life and these other minor changes to you? Will you be upgrading? Why or why not? By the way, I don’t think everyone should upgrade. Obviously the worth is going to be subjective for each person. And it might not be worth it to you if you’re on budget, play mostly docked, getting a Lite, don’t want to bother with the hassle etc. I feel like I should have given a little more time in the spotlight about these things. I went in a little too narrow minded on the “worth it” section. So I apologize for that. Still I hope taking a look at my perspective has help you decide wether or not you want to upgrade or not!
I only play portable/tabletop mode when my tablet is uncharged or the TV is occupied which happens time to time. It would be nice to buy a switch v2 then transferring my games Then selling my old switch but right now it's not possible.
@@jaythesavage6039 it's the same as the other consoles except it has worse graphics and you cant play in portable mode I play so I know. If you want to play competitively I recommend pc
Yes upgrade it ONLY if you like to bring your switch EVERYWHERE and you don't have battery accessories for your switch but if you only play in your home keep your switch but if you don't have a switch get the new one
+Jawad Ala if I ever bring my nintendo switch I bring a charger just in case, but I don’t bring it around that often, so for me it’s not worth the upgroot
I got my switch around the same time as Mario Kart came out, and I had my original Joy-cons (with the C1 model number) and never had any problems, not even drifting. I did eventually buy new ones after I accidentally snapped off the stick on the left one. I brought the ones with the new model number and they seem to work great and had no problems just like my old ones. Thank you, Adam, for making this video, I enjoyed it a lot.
Original Switch handheld mode is good for your health. It stops you playing games and let you take a break about the right time. play 2.5 hours and take a break and play it again after it fully charged. If I had V2 I'll be playing Fire Emblem 4.5 hours straight... and it's not going to be good for next day morning.
@Davilas, yeah that’s a good point. Personally. It really doesn’t effect me like that though because I don’t play for that long anyways. But what helps is when you stop playing you don’t have to recharge it. You can just put it away and pull out again later. So really it works out the same at least for me. And I think it would work out the same for most people because most people if they are really into that play session will just find a charger anyways. But still that’s a fair point and that shorter battery could actually help with that sort of short term “game addiction” Thanks for the comment 👍
Nice analysis! This upgrade is really only worth considering for primarily handheld players. I do not fall into that demographic so, while certainly nice, the V2 Switch isn't for me. Had Nintendo put the rumored Sharp IGZO display on this Switch, however, I might be singing a different tune 😅
Batteries degrade with time. That's something to consider. A more efficient chipset is probably the only reasoning it's cooler therefore going to lower the degradation to the battery. For me it was a no brainer 100 for the new revision and replacement of my joycons which to be honest where driving me nuts. So in all I'm happy
To me if you have the OG switch and it works and has been working for you then as of right now there probably isn’t a need to spend $299 on a V2 for some better battery and a pinch of better screen quality. If you don’t have a switch then picking this up over the OG switch is probably the better option. But if you really need that extra %15 better battery life then go for it. Also as of rn there has been cases of the new joycons still drifting so that’s a minus,
Yeah for a lot of people there really isn’t a point to upgrade. But it’s not a 15 percent increase it’s almost twice the battery life. And yeah unfortunately they are still drifting. Still haven’t had the issue myself though.
Great video, that save and data transfer tutorial would be great. My Og switch is filled to the brim with digital games so I'd love to see how the transfer process goes.
Yeah I totally get that! One thing to keep in mind though is by the time a Pro comes out the V1 is going to be worth much less then the V2. So upgrading now will result in basically the same price to upgrade to the Pro.
By the way just to let you know the V2 is currently worth $50 more at GameStop. So the V2 is definitely going to retain its value longer. The OG will just continue to drop.
I was waiting for a Switch V2 video from you! :) Learnt a lot of things mentioned here that others havent such as the other small revisions in the past! Great job man :D
I'm not upgrading. I'm keeping my older Switch, but then next month I'm getting a Switch Lite! I'm planning on keeping my V1 Switch at home and taking the Switch Lite on the go. And I am not transferring the data to the Lite; I'm planning on having my V1 Switch as Digital only. Also, love the new background! 😉
That seems like a great plan! I thought about not upgrading to the V2 since I’m probably going to use the Lite more often. But I figured It wouldn’t cost much to upgrade and I could do a video on it. So yeah I totally get that. Wouldn’t it be better to go digital only on the Lite though? That way you don’t have to take games around with you? Although either way if you have games digitally you can access them on both. Glad you like the new background man 😁
Oh yeah as for the heat, when playing fire emblem on my old switch it got HOT. Like it was making whirring noises and blowing out tons of air and such. But the new one hasn’t gotten nearly as bad. It gets warm and blows air but it’s quiet.
That’s awesome to hear! I didn’t realize it made that much of a difference but it makes sense as it has a more power _efficient_ chip. Thanks for sharing! 👍
I sold my OG switch 3 days ago for $280, and picking my v2 up tomorrow (my cousin's 10% target discount doesn't hurt either = $290 after taxes). Switches just hold value, and it does help if you are good at selling things, that you know will hold it's value. The only thing I hate, is that I don't have my older switch to transfer my data.
That’s awesome that you were able to get a good deal too! But yeah too bad you can’t transfer. Do you at least have Nintendo Online so you can transfer most of the game save data?
@@TimeLagGaming well I have my other OG Switch with majority of my saves, so I will be able to transfer data to my v2 (yes I got the v2 two days ago) . Some of my data is obselete, due to my main switch being gone. I have not transfered any data yet, but I will tomorrow. I also plan to join the "Nintendo Online" service, because saving and transferring data using the cloud is a major benefit for me. Update: Also purchased the Switch lite 2 days ago.
I experienced drift on my left Joy-Con (JCL-C0). Calibration sort of helped, but in the end a small spritz of contact cleaner under the dust skirt cleared it up.
Do you have to use the contact cleaner every once in awhile or did the one time clean fix it? I’ve heard for some it’s only temporary. Also thanks for letting me know the model number. I’m really curious if the C3 that’s been out for a while still drifts. I always see these polls of how many people have had this issue but I have feeling the majority have older C0, C1, or C2 models. But what’s also weird is there is manufacturer variations of the joystick within the C3. So then if the C3 does still drift the question is which variations of stick is in it. Feels impossible to solve this, the only hope is seeing if the Lite drifts at all. Anyways sorry for rambling lol
@@TimeLagGaming All good. I like to get feedback too. I have only had to use the contact cleaner once (about 3 months ago) and have not seen any drift since. I play once or twice a week. I'll let you know if it happens again, and if the contact cleaner works again.
Have you experienced joycons to be kinda loose when attached to the console? I have many of them, and some move a bit if you gently force and move them from the screen side to the back. I experienced those that come with the consoles do that more than the ones sold apart.
Hey, Adam I like you new background and your video transition into different images is so much smoother keep up the good work and can’t wait for your next video. Good job
Im not upgrading. I have a launch day system, never had any issue with it. I have never run out of battery, and i have a cool blue temperature screen and dont want to risk getting the warmer yellowish screen.
My current switch is good enough for me. I mainly play at home anyways and outside of the house, I hardly get more than an hour of wait time to play anyways. If I really need the extra battery life, I'll just invest in a power bank. As for the new system running cooler, I bought a small cooling mod from eBay and installed it into my dock. The temperature difference was quite significant. I think for what the new switch model offers, there's alternative ways to get those same features for the original by using mods and accessories. Besides, at the time of this comment, GameStop will only offer up to $175 trade in value for the original switch (according to their website), and that's only until September 15th. Hardly seems worth it if you already own the original.
It’s $175 plus $25. Use to be $200 plus $25. But like I said it’s not hard to sell if elsewhere for $250. But still I totally get why it’s not worth it for you since you play docked mostly anyways 😁👍
@@TimeLagGaming Ah I see. Yeah, even when I play in handheld, I mostly play at home lol. The only time I've played it outside is when I'm at the laundromat and that's only for like an hour when I'm waiting for my laundry to finish. The other thing is I don't have a Nintendo subscription, so transferring save data can be a pain.
i think imma stick to my old switch, mainly because i just bought it and put over 75 hours of botw. plus for me personally this isn’t that much of an upgrade, but when they release the newest “best version” of a switch i’ll definitely upgrade.
You can now buy the V2 in Australia for $392 AUD (267 USD) That already included 10% GST in the price tag because AUstralia has only ONE SALES TAX for ALL states. So they are getting cheaper
Where I’m from getting a new switch would be too expensive. I’m going to stick with my v1 until a newer switch model comes out. I might just buy a external battery pack for it. Since the Nintendo switch is basically Nintendo’s flagship right now and next year we are looking at new Sony and Microsoft consoles I know Nintendo is going to release a next switch sometime soon. So I’ll wait
I had the switch this summer and played a ton of zelda for about 5 days. I got tired of it but now I bought one again since I got a feeling to play again and also bcs of the new version and getting some games for christmas too :) Any tips? I'm gonna get Odyssey but I want something else too
Nice! They had Mario Odyssey for half on Black Friday did you get it with the sale? Other games I would recommend are Zelda Breath of the Wild and Splatoon 2. I have a whole video covering all the games I have on my switch if you want to check it out.
Just asking is it fine to use 3rd party joycons for the switch? Just a back up in case the og joycons will have drifting problems? Waiting for you reply master. 😊
Well current rumors are pointing towards the Pro being a home console only. Of course those are just rumors but it makes sense. So I would recommend going with the V2. Up to you though! 😁👍
Few reasons why i will upgrade: 1. Played Handheld most of the time. 2. Zelda. 3. DQB2 4. Better battery life. ✂️--------------------------- CROP HERE ----------------------------✂️ 5. These are just reasons to show my wife so i can get the new one! 😅
I have the newer Joycon JCR-C3, and I can confirm that it started drifting after 2 months of use, and still does to this day I figured to just deal with it, since Joycons are pretty expensive for me.
Thanks for confirming! It’s too bad it still happens. Hopefully that lawsuit goes through and they really fix it. Have you tried the many fixes out there?
Nintendo will fix it for free. I just got mine fixed a few weeks ago. www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/nintendo-switch-controller-joy-con-drift-free-repair/
I want to buy this, but right now, the switch that comes with mario kart deluxe is $299.99 with a $15-$25 coupon. Unfortunately, it comes with the version 1, not the new upgraded version 2 :(. Still pretty good deal, right?
I’d say get the V2 with the gift card. Not sure if the sale is still going on but when they had it at GameStop it worked with the V2 as well. Then you could just fine Mario Kart 8 used for $30-40
Be aware the screens on the new switches aren’t as bright or vivid in colors, I had to take my switch v2 back twice because the first one had greenish tint to it the second one wasn’t as bright my 3rd one was finally calibrated perfectly.
Dang. Crazy how different the manufacturing/calibration variance is. I barely noticed a difference with mine but it seems like I got the good one. Thanks for letting me know your experience man 👍
I had extreme stick drift with the joycons that came with the switch and I can't buy more because they're too expensive so I have to buy a cheap Bluetooth controller and just play table top mode with the Bluetooth controller
Great question. All new bundles will have this new Switch. But any old bundles that are still out there like the Pokémon ones which sometimes get restocked, those will all be the old launch version.
I bought my mario kart bundle on thanksgiving 2019 literally yesterday and it's the original old switch for the same price as the new one its pretty wack
Yeah it’s dumb how they did that. But they probably had tons of left over units that they had to get rid of. Only completely new bundles will have the new battery version, like the Fire Emblem and Disney Bundle.
I've got 2 original Switch consoles, the standard red/blue joy con version and the grey joy con version of the Diablo 3 edition. Both "old versions" of the switch but both with the same brightness/color variation in the displays, with the red/blue being brighter and fresher looking than the grey Diablo version. I tend to assume, that these differences don't apply to the comparison old vs V2 Switch but rather to the comparison between three different screen manufacturers and these differences can already be seen in pre V2 Switches.
It’s definitely tighter but that could just be because everything is brand new. The originals units did tend to get loose very easily but we will have to wait and see if the same thing happens.
I just got a switch about 3 days ago and it’s the V2 and I get joycon drift. Any idea why or how to fix it? I’ve recalibrated the joysticks and updated the joycons
Need some advice. V1 switch with Mario cart for 281 after tax or V2 switch no games 285 after tax. I think usage would be 90% docked 10 %mobile for trips etc. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
I bought the switch lite on launch infact I preordered it, this is the first switch I have ever got, love it right up untill a day ago when I realized I could't stream the game play !!! looked for hacks or devices that woudl allow for this but nothing, I had not choice by to buy a regular switch ...... So I am now looking at getting the V2
I think if you don’t have any nintendo switches, buy this one over the old one. If you already have last years model, don’t upgrade unless you’re a collector or you old one is broken.
Well, I don't have a Nintendo Switch yet, but I'm planning to add this new revision to my list, along with some Nintendo Switch games, such as Super Mario Maker 2 and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. By the way, I also have a New Nintendo 3DS with interchangeable cover plates, along with a bunch of Nintendo DS and 3DS games that I still plan to play in tandem with the Switch games.
love your vids bro. I'm trying to figure out which games to download on my switch cuz zelda is played out for now for me. any reviews on open world games for the switch??
Like always, amazing and explained review! But is your special edition Nintendo Labo joy con custom-made because I tried to look for it on eBay and Amazon and there were no results... Oh wait, sorry! 😅 I just saw your video of you opening your Labo prize, now I know you need to win it... 😂😅
I got my switch in November, and had two pairs of joycons. (The first pair fell off a car and got damaged) The joycons are JC- C3, so they are the newer model. While I sometimes occasionally experience occasional drift, it dosen't happen often. But when it does happen (like less than once a month) it's really annoying, but it goes away. Do the old joycons and newer joycons feel different? I wouldn't know, you tell me. I'm not really keen on upgrading, because the only benefit to me would be better battery life. And I don't want to go through the trouble of switching over data and re-downloading everything. IDK, maybe I will, probably wont tho. And I still live with my parents, and can only spend my own money or wait for holidays. I'll think I'll spend that money on astral chain instead.
Dang that’s too bad to hear that even the newer ones drift. But yeah the newer ones don’t feel any different. And yeah I totally get not wanting to deal with the hassle and everything 👍
ok so... i see your point. BUT, next year they might make a switch pro and im not going to waste my money now when there are more possibility's of a new switch coming out. so I am going to turn down the switch V2 and wait for the next modle
That’s definitely a valid option! Still if you don’t mind a little hassle then selling and upgrading is a great option as too. Just depends what you prefer.
My switch has bad stick drift and doesn’t always log that I have put the joy con In Should I get a v2 switch and sell old one or should I get some new joycons
Does the new screen color temperature even matter I have the original switch and I only play my switch at home and battery life is not that important for me. So I will most likely just stick with my original.
TimeLag Gaming thank you for answering I really appreciate it. I do have one more question though. So yesterday I got home to my switch and when I took it out of the case I noticed there are three horizontal scratches on the backplate. I have know idea how they got there because I keep my switch in the case when I’m not using it. Also the right joycon rail seems to stick out by just a hair. This causes the joycon to not fit the same I noticed this by running my finger on the back of the switch we’re to backplate seperates from the joycon and I noticed the back plate is a bit higher then the joycon. This is very hard to explain and I’m sorry if my description of my issue wasn’t the best. Do you think I should worry about this because my warranty ran out and everything else works just fine. I can post a video of the issue if that will help

Yes for play Zelda or fortnite this version of switch is the best and I think I upgrade
Idc and I'll keep my original switch that I bought the day of release (march 3 2017)

Finnaly, a good youtuber that gets straight to the point.
Traded my original switch with the new one on GameStop, absolutely worth it due to the longer battery life.
Hey, great to hear you found it worth it! 👌

Thank you Joshua!
I bought a switch late june and while I dont regret the battery life since I barely take my switch out of the dock, I feel like I should upgrade
Yeah for docked players there isn’t really a reason to upgrade
You needs it! Needs to get the precious!
Does it heat up much?? That’s what I’m worried about??
The V2 does run slightly cooler than the original because the chip is more power efficient.
Great video, that save and data transfer tutorial would be great. My Og switch is filled to the brim with digital games so I'd love to see how the transfer process goes.
Thank you! And glad to hear you want that tutorial. I’ll definitely get that out in early September 👌

I just bought this a week ago it’s my first switch and it’s much better then the Wii U!
That’s awesome! 👌
Hey, Adam I like you new background and your video transition into different images is so much smoother keep up the good work and can’t wait for your next video. Good job
Thank you Cai! I’m glad you like the changes 😁
Im not upgrading. I have a launch day system, never had any issue with it. I have never run out of battery, and i have a cool blue temperature screen and dont want to risk getting the warmer yellowish screen.
Yup I totally get that! 😁👌
Tom Holland has a RUclips tech channel?!
Apparently 🤷🏽♂️
He looks nothing like Tom Holland dumbass
My current switch is good enough for me. I mainly play at home anyways and outside of the house, I hardly get more than an hour of wait time to play anyways. If I really need the extra battery life, I'll just invest in a power bank. As for the new system running cooler, I bought a small cooling mod from eBay and installed it into my dock. The temperature difference was quite significant. I think for what the new switch model offers, there's alternative ways to get those same features for the original by using mods and accessories.
Besides, at the time of this comment, GameStop will only offer up to $175 trade in value for the original switch (according to their website), and that's only until September 15th. Hardly seems worth it if you already own the original.
It’s $175 plus $25. Use to be $200 plus $25. But like I said it’s not hard to sell if elsewhere for $250. But still I totally get why it’s not worth it for you since you play docked mostly anyways 😁👍
@@TimeLagGaming Ah I see. Yeah, even when I play in handheld, I mostly play at home lol. The only time I've played it outside is when I'm at the laundromat and that's only for like an hour when I'm waiting for my laundry to finish. The other thing is I don't have a Nintendo subscription, so transferring save data can be a pain.
Mine are the original joycons, one used to drift but it's since been fixed and no problems have occurred
Awesome! Did you fix it yourself or did you have Nintendo fix it?
@@TimeLagGaming Nintendo.
i think imma stick to my old switch, mainly because i just bought it and put over 75 hours of botw. plus for me personally this isn’t that much of an upgrade, but when they release the newest “best version” of a switch i’ll definitely upgrade.
Yup I totally get that! 👌
You can now buy the V2 in Australia for $392 AUD (267 USD) That already included 10% GST in the price tag because AUstralia has only ONE SALES TAX for ALL states. So they are getting cheaper
Oh dang that’s great! 👌
If you all upgrade and sell your originals for cheap, maybe I'll finally get one second hand 😅
There’s been some pretty good used prices, check OfferUp
@@TimeLagGaming I don't have that in the UK I don't think. I'll check Ebay
Where I’m from getting a new switch would be too expensive. I’m going to stick with my v1 until a newer switch model comes out. I might just buy a external battery pack for it. Since the Nintendo switch is basically Nintendo’s flagship right now and next year we are looking at new Sony and Microsoft consoles I know Nintendo is going to release a next switch sometime soon. So I’ll wait
LilEggsy that is true
Not a bad choice 😁👌
I had the switch this summer and played a ton of zelda for about 5 days. I got tired of it but now I bought one again since I got a feeling to play again and also bcs of the new version and getting some games for christmas too :) Any tips? I'm gonna get Odyssey but I want something else too
Buster whats Odyssey?
Nice! They had Mario Odyssey for half on Black Friday did you get it with the sale? Other games I would recommend are Zelda Breath of the Wild and Splatoon 2. I have a whole video covering all the games I have on my switch if you want to check it out.
Buster what’s odyssey?
Very good and informational video. I’m hoping I get a Nintendo Switch for Christmas but only time will tell, wish me luck!
Thank you! And good luck 😁👍
Just asking is it fine to use 3rd party joycons for the switch? Just a back up in case the og joycons will have drifting problems? Waiting for you reply master. 😊
Yeah as far as I’ve heard third party joycons are perfectly safe to use! I’ll be getting some soon myself
@@TimeLagGaming Thankyou so much! I'll order one because of what you've said!
I am jealous of people who had the switch longer then me in just now playing botw I got mine on the 10th of September
Well better late than never! 😃
I only buy a console like once every 5 years or more, I don't have much money. Should I buy the V2 now or wait for a pro? Thanks a lot
Well current rumors are pointing towards the Pro being a home console only. Of course those are just rumors but it makes sense. So I would recommend going with the V2. Up to you though! 😁👍
@@TimeLagGaming Ok thanks man!
I decided to upgrade to the Nintendo Switch V2 because my birthday's coming up in 14 days, and I want a new Switch that I could play on more often.
That’s awesome! And happy early birthday 🥳
@@TimeLagGaming Thanks.
My joycons are so broken and my battery life seems like it cant last an hour so im looking at that battery life and the upgrade
Definitely sounds like it would be worth it for you 👍
Hello! I love your videos and 2 questions do u have. Another consle other than switch and also grey or blue and red????
I just got the newer model for £105 with 3 games. was in the market for one anyway and was basically gonna go for the cheapest one
Hey nice! 👌
Few reasons why i will upgrade:
1. Played Handheld most of the time.
2. Zelda.
3. DQB2
4. Better battery life.
✂️--------------------------- CROP HERE ----------------------------✂️
5. These are just reasons to show my wife so i can get the new one! 😅
I have the newer Joycon JCR-C3, and I can confirm that it started drifting after 2 months of use, and still does to this day
I figured to just deal with it, since Joycons are pretty expensive for me.
Thanks for confirming! It’s too bad it still happens. Hopefully that lawsuit goes through and they really fix it. Have you tried the many fixes out there?
Nintendo will fix it for free. I just got mine fixed a few weeks ago.
www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/nintendo-switch-controller-joy-con-drift-free-repair/
U can send it to nintendo and let them fix it for free
I plan on keep my super smash dock, is that wise ? I’m upgrading to the new switch V2, what are your thoughts on that?
Definitely keep the smash dock if you can! If you are trading it in you could buy a regular dock used online for cheap
Amazing video - very helpful... Thank you so much!!
You’re Welcome, and thank you! Glad I could help 😁👍
I am going to need that Pokemon Hip Hop playlist lol
Link is in the description 👍
1:01 its not onlye XKW who V2 the XKJ is V2 to. XKJ is sold in EU/UK
I use 95% handheld so i sold my v1 and got very nice price for it and got V2
Interesting to know!
That’s good you were able to get a good price when upgrading 👌
I want to buy this, but right now, the switch that comes with mario kart deluxe is $299.99 with a $15-$25 coupon. Unfortunately, it comes with the version 1, not the new upgraded version 2 :(. Still pretty good deal, right?
I’d say get the V2 with the gift card. Not sure if the sale is still going on but when they had it at GameStop it worked with the V2 as well. Then you could just fine Mario Kart 8 used for $30-40
Doubt I'll be upgrading but most likely will be picking up the Lite just to collect. Awesome video though
Thank you! And yeah I totally get that 😁👍
I'm considering buying the Switch v2. I have the OG switch and Switch lite, which one should I sell first?
Lex Beltran you should sell the og one since it is closer to the holidays somone would buy it pretty quickly
Your video helped me like every time so thanks and great work
No problem, glad I could help 😁
I bought mine in 2020 and I still love it!!!!
Be aware the screens on the new switches aren’t as bright or vivid in colors, I had to take my switch v2 back twice because the first one had greenish tint to it the second one wasn’t as bright my 3rd one was finally calibrated perfectly.
Dang. Crazy how different the manufacturing/calibration variance is. I barely noticed a difference with mine but it seems like I got the good one. Thanks for letting me know your experience man 👍
I had extreme stick drift with the joycons that came with the switch and I can't buy more because they're too expensive so I have to buy a cheap Bluetooth controller and just play table top mode with the Bluetooth controller
Dang that’s too bad 😕
Try contacting Nintendo Support?
I still got the old nintendo switch witch works pretty good the new ones look great too but sticking to the old one
Totally get it 👍
Will the “new” switch be updated to switch bundles or would switch bundles continue to use the old switch?
Great question. All new bundles will have this new Switch. But any old bundles that are still out there like the Pokémon ones which sometimes get restocked, those will all be the old launch version.
I bought my mario kart bundle on thanksgiving 2019 literally yesterday and it's the original old switch for the same price as the new one its pretty wack
Yeah it’s dumb how they did that. But they probably had tons of left over units that they had to get rid of. Only completely new bundles will have the new battery version, like the Fire Emblem and Disney Bundle.
Can't believe it was released a year ago already
I've got 2 original Switch consoles, the standard red/blue joy con version and the grey joy con version of the Diablo 3 edition. Both "old versions" of the switch but both with the same brightness/color variation in the displays, with the red/blue being brighter and fresher looking than the grey Diablo version. I tend to assume, that these differences don't apply to the comparison old vs V2 Switch but rather to the comparison between three different screen manufacturers and these differences can already be seen in pre V2 Switches.
Yup there’s still variation in the V2 screens as well
Do you think these will be reduced in price on black Friday in Amazon deals? I've been wanting a switch for years and black Friday seems a good time.
As far as I’ve seen there are no price reductions for Black Friday, only the Mario Kart bundle bit that includes the original switch not the V2
I have my original switch so I'm waiting for the switch lite
I'm not gonna buy anything new, bc I took my switch apart and upgradet it...
@Anime, nice. Yeah no point in upgrading if you’re already getting the lite 👌
@SpaceDave, really?
If you notice that the joycon connected to the tablet is tight rather than the old switch which is lose.
It’s definitely tighter but that could just be because everything is brand new. The originals units did tend to get loose very easily but we will have to wait and see if the same thing happens.
I just got a switch about 3 days ago and it’s the V2 and I get joycon drift. Any idea why or how to fix it? I’ve recalibrated the joysticks and updated the joycons
I would contact Nintendo. They will fix or replace it for free.
What is this joycon drift about?
Some people’s controllers have an issue where the joystick will basically move on its own.
Need some advice. V1 switch with Mario cart for 281 after tax or V2 switch no games 285 after tax. I think usage would be 90% docked 10 %mobile for trips etc. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
I’d say go with the Mario Kart one then.
I bought the switch lite on launch infact I preordered it, this is the first switch I have ever got, love it right up untill a day ago when I realized I could't stream the game play !!! looked for hacks or devices that woudl allow for this but nothing, I had not choice by to buy a regular switch ...... So I am now looking at getting the V2
Yup that’s one of the downsides of the Lite as it has no video out chip 😬
I dislike that the screens are different. I don't wanna get a very warm look I just want the neutral look
Well the V2 is more neutral
I think if you don’t have any nintendo switches, buy this one over the old one. If you already have last years model, don’t upgrade unless you’re a collector or you old one is broken.
It’s still worth the upgrade, you can upgrade for free right now because people are buying old switches for over retail price
Well, I don't have a Nintendo Switch yet, but I'm planning to add this new revision to my list, along with some Nintendo Switch games, such as Super Mario Maker 2 and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. By the way, I also have a New Nintendo 3DS with interchangeable cover plates, along with a bunch of Nintendo DS and 3DS games that I still plan to play in tandem with the Switch games.
Ah nice! Sounds like a good plan 😁
love your vids bro. I'm trying to figure out which games to download on my switch cuz zelda is played out for now for me. any reviews on open world games for the switch??
Thanks man! I haven’t played many open world games on switch but I hear Skyrim is good. Starlink Battle for Atlas is good too
Nice! I thought you would make a video about this! Hope to see you at pax!
Thanks! And I’m sure I will see you there 😁👍
Like always, amazing and explained review! But is your special edition Nintendo Labo joy con custom-made because I tried to look for it on eBay and Amazon and there were no results...
Oh wait, sorry! 😅 I just saw your video of you opening your Labo prize, now I know you need to win it... 😂😅
is it still worth it in 2022? I'm thinking about upgrading
Idk. Should I get a switch or a ps5? What do you guys say? Mention: I have never had any of these platforms before. Just an xbox.
Ps4
S W not a ps4. Wtf ps5 is backwards compatible to ps4 and you have a next gen console.
Nice back ground setup
Thank you Henry! 😁
Thanks for the video.
Wow puberty hit him hard have you heard his voice
Lol I hit puberty several years ago, I just talk softly.
Dang to bad I already got the regular switch so I can't get the switch v2. Oh and thanks for joining my clash Royale clan
That’s alright the original is still great! And no problem 😆
I'm going to stick to my old Nintendo switch
Totally get that! 😁
My switch is broken so I am deciding between switch 2 or save for a pc
I’d go with the V2 but thats just me. You could go with a Lite if you don’t play in TV mode a lot
Me too
So glad I waited until now even though I heard there was a 4k version coming out
I got my switch in November, and had two pairs of joycons. (The first pair fell off a car and got damaged) The joycons are JC- C3, so they are the newer model. While I sometimes occasionally experience occasional drift, it dosen't happen often. But when it does happen (like less than once a month) it's really annoying, but it goes away. Do the old joycons and newer joycons feel different? I wouldn't know, you tell me. I'm not really keen on upgrading, because the only benefit to me would be better battery life. And I don't want to go through the trouble of switching over data and re-downloading everything. IDK, maybe I will, probably wont tho. And I still live with my parents, and can only spend my own money or wait for holidays. I'll think I'll spend that money on astral chain instead.
Dang that’s too bad to hear that even the newer ones drift. But yeah the newer ones don’t feel any different. And yeah I totally get not wanting to deal with the hassle and everything 👍
Hi,
i found your Video and i love it, i am looking to get one for my son he's turning 7 years old soon and your video is very explanatory.
Thank you
You’re Welcome! 😃
ok so... i see your point. BUT, next year they might make a switch pro and im not going to waste my money now when there are more possibility's of a new switch coming out. so I am going to turn down the switch V2 and wait for the next modle
Yeah I totally get that. Do keep in mind though the current rumors are pointing to next years Switch Pro being a home console only.
What! a home console only? That sucks. I understand what you mean thanks for letting me know
I dont know why, but your facial expressions really remind me of Reggie. Great video!
Seems more practical to buy a battery pack than a switch v2
That’s definitely a valid option! Still if you don’t mind a little hassle then selling and upgrading is a great option as too. Just depends what you prefer.
Even the old switch is 475€ in turkey. If they lower the price of the old one i will buy that instead. Or the switch lite
Nice! 👌
Just bought a old switch during summer how are you
I m too poor to buy one😫😥😭😭😭
Pokemon FAN Well at least you have a chance to get the better one
Nice! Get a good deal?
Just trade it in at GameStop it will only cost you $75 that’s what I did
Can I get a 1,000,000 subs without any videos ? Might do this thanks
My switch has bad stick drift and doesn’t always log that I have put the joy con In Should I get a v2 switch and sell old one or should I get some new joycons
Thank you really useful video!!
No problem! Glad you found it useful 😁
Does the new screen color temperature even matter I have the original switch and I only play my switch at home and battery life is not that important for me. So I will most likely just stick with my original.
Not really, just to some people who really care about it. You should be completely fine staying with your current model! 👌
TimeLag Gaming thank you for answering I really appreciate it. I do have one more question though. So yesterday I got home to my switch and when I took it out of the case I noticed there are three horizontal scratches on the backplate. I have know idea how they got there because I keep my switch in the case when I’m not using it. Also the right joycon rail seems to stick out by just a hair. This causes the joycon to not fit the same I noticed this by running my finger on the back of the switch we’re to backplate seperates from the joycon and I noticed the back plate is a bit higher then the joycon. This is very hard to explain and I’m sorry if my description of my issue wasn’t the best. Do you think I should worry about this because my warranty ran out and everything else works just fine. I can post a video of the issue if that will help
I feel that if you have the first switch just keep it. Everything is mostly the same. Wait for the switch pro.
It’s very likely that the Switch Pro is going to be a Home Console only. So keep that in mind.
TimeLag Gaming yes for me that’s no problem!!!
Thanks for breaking this down!!
No problem man! Let me know if you actually end up upgrading and hacking your old one 😆👌
