The original Switch was nothing short of a phenomenon, an inventive hybrid console that blended home and handheld gaming with clever design and irresistible Nintendo exclusives. And now, eight years on, many of the players who picked up the original Switch as teens or young adults have grown up, and so too, in many ways, has the console. The Nintendo Switch 2 hasn’t strayed far from Nintendo’s winning formula, but it feels like a more mature, confident piece of hardware. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but instead, it refines almost everything that made the first model so beloved. From performance to build quality, this is a Switch that’s grown with its audience, and the result is the best version yet.
