Do you think you'll end up enjoying the Switch 2 more than the Switch 1 overall?

[Shaun87]

I’m extremely disappointed with my Switch 2 so far, here’s what the issues are for me:

. It feels substantially heavier than Switch and the right thumb stick is almost impossible to reach comfortably, I had to buy one of those grips because my thumb was cramping up trying to use it. Just like the Switch 1, Nintendo hasn’t learnt anything when it comes to ergonomics. The battery life is also ridiculously short, and the system gets hot during gameplay, the cooling system isn’t good enough.

. Mario Kart World is a complete misfire, nowhere near as good as MK8, I just can’t get used to the control differences. Going round corners was effortless with MK8, now I just hit the walls. Another thing touted as a game changer for it is the rail riding and wall jumps, but to be honest I rarely see them during a race. I played several races on multiple tracks and only a couple times did I notice a rail, and by the time I did it was too late to hop on, and Ive never performed a wall jump yet. I’ve been playing Mario Kart since the Super Nintendo, and been good at all of them, this one though, I just can’t get the feel for.

. Donkey Kong Bananza: I’ve seen several publications and fans online say that this game is considered a successor to Mario Odyssey (make that make sense!) which tells me that Nintendo is nowhere near close to completing a true Mario game for Switch 2, which makes my console a dust collector until one finally comes out.

It’s now boxed back up and in storage, I would sell it but I got a £75 gift voucher on my account for Christmas and haven’t found anything to spend it on and they can’t be refunded.
