This is nice, VRR on the screen.
VRR is huge for the switch. It can be a big deal that can help maintain 3rd party support for longer than it was for the OG Switch. Though Switch 2 is looking great for AA JRPG's even more so. Obviously, AAA like Final Fantasy, From Softgames and Monster Hunter on current Gen consoles is better, obviously.

Honestly, the issue I am having is better life. Looking at how much the system is priced in Japan. Equivalent to $300 - $350 gives me the feeling battery life will be a bigger con. Might make the eventual OLED model worth considering if there is an improvement there.

The LCD having VRR, HDR and 120fps is a great offset to not having OLED. Obviously OLED looks amazing but the inverse could've been an a Switch 2 with just a 60fps OLED screen but costing more.
Honestly, whenever the OLED version comes out in 4–5 years it might make for a good mid-generation refresh for Nintendo. Focusing on battery life and obviously having the OLED screen would make for a very fine handheld experience.

They should let us people who don't care how much it cost pre-order anyway. They could double the price and I wouldn't give a shit I'm still buying day 1. Let me pre-order.

Trump really about to blow it with GGamers and working class folks who normally love him over this bullshyt. Tariffs will never benefit regular people

I'd love for the Switch 2 to be the "straw that breaks the camel's back" with his support loool

Still copping the console, Mario Kart and the Gamecube controller day one like the whale that I am :mjcry:

- Inflated price of GPUs (especially nVidia)
- Trump's tariffs

Gaming is going to be an expensive hobby. Nintendo is supposed to be the cheap alternative to the other two. So if $500 the best they can do then I wouldn't be surprised if the PS6 is close to $1000.
