Yep and loving it. Can't see myself looking at that hideous screen on the first one ever again. Using that lovely built in lan adapter as well. Table top mode feels so much better now, can now stand up on my pillow! Great improvement all around no matter the mode. I also have Overwatch and Paladins downloaded on my internal storage, really helps with Overwatch's loading.
I am on the fence as ebgames allows me to trade in my regular switch and buy a switch OLED for $170 (regular price is $450). But I am struggling to find a compelling reason to upgrade. Yea OLED and other minor improvements but it just feels so underwhelming. We will see though.

Yep
I plan to get it this week, but have been really busy but his week, and will be next week. It’s going to be my prize at the end of it all :D
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
No.
I work from home now so i don't need the handheld mode much anymore. If that recently changes, then it's a maybe.

Yes - The much better display is a massive improvement, bigger screen is really nice - didnt expect it to be a big difference but it really is and buildquality feels like a huge step up. Feels premium!
No regrets, it will definitely make me play more games handheld that's for sure.
I tried to get one but they were all sold out in my little city. Gamestop had a line of like 30 people when they opens at 10, but half of those were there for Pokemon cards.
Hopefully I'll be able to pick one up later this week.

But the Switch has been losing a lot of momentum the second half of this year along with zero price cuts and all their games still the same price isn't helping. |
Define "has been losing a lot of momentum the second half of this year"
They literally announced the OLED model in the first week of H2, 3 months before release, of course that would impact sales over the summer.
It's only down ~9% YoY with last year still high on the Animal Crossing+Covid boost. It's up ~60% compared to 2019 and ~100% compared to 2018.
Being slightly behind one of the greatest years in history is not "losing a lot of momentum".

It is for those that had the ridiculous notion that Switch 2021 fiscal year would make Switch 2020 fiscal year dwarfed. People that were expecting 30-35 mil+ for the fiscal year lol. Also, I think the OLED caused a slight dip, but I suspect most of it is the fact that it is an old system now and the market is aware of it. I suspect a very front-loaded OLED buy-in from the market, followed by a siginificant drop-off in the OLED's popularity compared to the base Switch. I think, in the end, Switch 1 would have sold 110-120 million without the OLED and they will do the same with OLED, hopefully followed by Switch 2's launch in 2023, a full 6 years after Switch 1 and a normal life cycle.
