For those getting a Switch 2, what sold you on the system?

I’m curious as to the reason for this thread. @curl-6 was there a certain response you expected from most answers or were you just genuinely curious about what makes someone an early adopter for a Nintendo console.

Like the thread asking whether GTAVI was needed for the Switch 2 to succeed, I feel like this thread is answered within the first couple replies.

I’m not calling out the thread or saying it is pointless, by any means. But mostly it’s just an opportunity for a lot of us Nintendo fans to come in and say how hyped we are for a new Nintendo console/generation. You don’t really need a reason for most of us around these parts.

Mostly just curious about whether there was a singular system seller like say Mario Kart World or DK Bananza that made it a must-buy right away, or whether it was something more general like "cos it's the next Nintendo."

Also just to spark some discussion to pass the time while we wait out the final 8 days til launch.
