HEAR ME OUT ❤️ ALSO... NEW SWITCH BABY!!! Also, my camera completely messed up and under exposed the video. Sorry for those that notice. I notice. I hate it.
I do think that this is cool and the improvements are good? but it does kinda feel like a slap in the face, seeing as there have been rumors for a switch pro for a while.
Yes, I'm glad someone finally mentioned that the performance really doesn't change. That's what we all wanted, but the frame rate/resolution/battery life...pretty much no difference.
The way to stop this is quit buying the damn things. If you’re willing to shell out $350 for such a minor upgrade, Nintendo will keep selling it to you. Vote with your wallet or stop complaining of companies nickel & diming you with cheap sales tactics.
That's the problem the people is gonna still buying in mostly all the youtubers because they have money so if they gonna buy 3 different switches.... do you think they don't gonna buy at least 1 of this new. Even he is gonna buy it. Put it clear normal people with normal jobs we don't buy 4 of the same console. I think this one is good for someone that didn't have a switch cause is just 50 bucks more but dor people that we already have a switch is not worthy. But I'm happy I don't gonna spend the money until they really release a new model with better new inside system and at least we will still have the same games is not gonna be new exclusives because is the same system. I remember when the 3ds happen and I couldn't buy it I was stuck with my normal ds and it was really sad cause they put games that was only for 3ds. Most of the people is not rich be honest so I just hope I will have the money for the real new system when they realise it
Exactly. I love my old and first switch. The new one is useless. I am mostly a dock player and even handheld was already pretty good. I will wait 5 more years for the triple switch.
@@sindycd2900 I guess you already know this, but the 3DS was actually a very new console, not just an upgraded version for the DS. Yes, this thing has a similar name and it also looks like the DS, but it was meant to be a new console. It is like the Wii and the WiiU, many people thought it was just an upgraded version of the Wii, because of the name, but it was a new console (just looking more different then the Wii).
Yup. Makes a lot if sence. This was a pretty underwhelming reveal but fairly understandable, and they certainly couldn't overwhelmed by it. They're just whelmed.
@@TodayTamaraForever this is the 3rd iteration of the Switch now. I’m still disappointed because there’s no Nintendo charm. No themes, no miiverse, no music, no expandable home menu so you can see all the games. It’s still JUST another Switch.
"Kevin, I really need to get these new ideas for our new switch done." "well what have you got so far, Steve?" "Ummm...Well I changed the color from black to white.....switched the screen for a slightly bigger oled panel, I made the stand better and I added a wired ethernet port" "Kevin, We work for Nintendo, that's MORE than enough new features. You remember what we did with the Wii U concept right? Now pack it up and lets go get some wings"
Xbox: we have best graphic and game pass plus a cheap version of our console Ps: we have one of the best graphics and the best next gen features when it comes to sounds and speed and control Nintendo: if you want an 2006 graphics console with 2011 OLED screen gives us more than Xbox series s price
If they’d released this at the beginning of quarantine, when everyone was really buying switches since they were all stuck at home, would’ve been smarter
I'm not gonna buy this "new" switch, because I already have one and like it is already said, it just makes no sense for a person to buy this thing who already has one, because it is not worth it for this minimal differences (at least not for me).
Im getting the new one because my daughter has fully claimed the one we were ment to share 😂🤣😂 i mean she let's me when she wants to play 2 player but I have to sneak it when she's asleep lols I've already preordered the new one yay
I'm getting the new one cause I want a upgrade from my Lite. Also yes I know the OLED version doesn't have that many upgrades to it, but the only reason I want it is because 1. I wanna play my games on the TV, 2. I really like the 7 inch screen so I would like to play my games on the 7 inch screen in hand held mode, and 3. *W I D E*. And yeah that's pretty much all my reasons I wanna get the OLED.
I feel like this is more of a “3DS XL” upgrade than a “New 3DS” upgrade. And as for the wedge between OLED and non-OLED owners….I mean, it’s still barely a wedge compared to an internal upgrade. Sure the screen is better and slightly bigger, but that’s waaaaay different than new, better internals. Many people don’t feel like they have to upgrade here. New internals with exclusive games/better running games? Much more necessary.
I agree with your point about the price. The regular Switch should've been reduced in price from $299 to $249. The new OLED model should've been $299 or $319. Three tiers, three price points.
They won't do that because they then wouldn't make a profit off the console sale. $350 for 7 inch OLED gaming system is actually pretty cheap anyways comparatively speaking.
The most egregious thing is you can buy an Xbox Series S for $50 cheaper and a PS5 Digital edition for $50 more. And for heaven's sake, it's running on Maxwell architecture. Maxwell! From 2014! The SOC is on a fab process from 2015!
The animal crossing design is the nicest looking switch I’ve seen in my opinion. I love how the colors and design on the joycons are so significantly different then any other Nintendo switch I’ve seen so far, I just think they could have done better with the design of the OLED model.
I feel like this 'new' switch improves on nothing necessary while resolving no problems with the base model and pleases no one :') But it looks damn nice.
@@konradtorgauer yeah I suppose but if you already have that telescopic phone stand, it will work :> but yeah the kickstand looks nice, I just hope the new kick stand is made to last
"The Battery is the same" - No. It is not. It is the same Wattage for sure, but with an bigger OLED, the Battery will drain faster. So, the portable-expirience will become worse. And the Switch did not have a great Battery from begin with...
@@debblez We will see. Switchgames are for usual very bright (in Color) CNET says the following; "The only way to make OLED more energy-efficient is to reduce its brightness, but since that reduces its contrast ratio as well, it's not ideal. So we'll give this category to LCD, even though it's fairly close and neither uses much power. Depending on size, settings, and how much you watch it (of course) it's around $20 to $30 a year to run a modern TV." Even when they say "neither uses much power", this is based on electrical devices in general. On a portable with a bigger screen, i think it does play a major role on battery life. Maybe not on all games, but as far as it goes for switchgames, i am willing to bet, that the majority of fan-Favorites (Mario, Zelda, Splatoon, etc) will take a hit with an larger OLED.
My switch for whatever reason has a good battery??? Like I didn't use it for months and it was still on it was a low battery but it was still on. I realize when playing games it goes faster which sucks and the battery on the first model wasn't that great.
As someone who only ever plays switch in docked mode, this new model does nothing for me :/ Excited for those who play almost always in handheld mode though! Have fun with that new OLED screen
Nintendo has only been catering to portable players tho 😂Switch Lite is only for portable play and the previous Switch revision was better on battery life, which only matters if you’re a portable player. Now, they get a better screen and speakers. Is it really a hybrid console if they only care about the portable aspect? Maybe they should just stick to portable and exit the home console market.
Same for me. I use a switch lite for handheld gameplay cause I have small hands and the normal switch just isn’t comfortable for longer sessions in handheld to me. I would love though if they do a Switch lite oled model!
So what’s the point of getting this new OLED switch now and then they decide to release the Pro version with OLED?? Wouldn’t that just be a waste of your money?!
This is literally just the XL 3Ds of the switch. Not something you would upgrade your regular switch to but definitely worth getting if you don't already have the original. (if you can afford it)
@@da-Pboy No it didn't. You're thinking of the "new" models, which came out late in the lifespan. Almost like that's when we should expect a Switch "Pro".
@@paulclinton6414 The Switch is much more expensive than the DS was and is a more important console for Nintendo. This upgrade is significant enough that they’ll be pushing this for a while. But I hope you’re right.
An "Oled Model" Switch Lite would be nice, since the Oled screen would be a more integral part of the experience. Plus a white Switch Lite would look sick!
@@z3nmode970 Yeah, that's true. I actually forgot that one existed, but it's not as clean-looking as a Switch lite with this black and white design could look. But at least that one is real.
Totally agree, this actually is more suited for a switch lite upgrade. For the dock model I would still maybe keep the screen, wide stand and LAN input but I'd buff that dock
By the fact that switch joycons are $80, it would be nice if you could just buy the switch body without the joycons for $80 less because the joycons are the same, I'mma probably just keep my switch tho, I don't really mind it's performance, battery life, or the size of the screen, I'll most likely swap it out 2 or 3 models down the line
@@mqr1qnq not really fair to ask your consumers to be ok paying 50$ more than the msrp of the original switch when the manufacturing margins are getting bigger and bigger. This is a 350$ outdated machine. Not the end all be all Bloomberg and these other outlets made this out to be earlier this year. This is just an abomination
@@j03T3XAz It was already confirmed to be backwards compatible. Everything is compatible. Nintendo isn't about to split their userbase. New Switch works in the old dock, old switch works in the new dock. 🤡
Honestly, I'm just glad they won't be releasing "Switch Pro Only" games. Like with the new 3ds. I think thats what people would have an issue with. No one would dislike an upgraded console.
yeah I keep seeing people say that they're glad it's not an upgraded switch because it would fragment the user base......... completely ignoring the xbox one x and ps4 pro
@@joshuaijaola2145 I don't remember seeing games that only work on the X and Pro so it isn't an issue there, whereas there exists a whole library of games including minecraft and xenoblad which didn't run on the original 3DS - given the already low-spec nature of the switch it isn't foolish to say that there _could_ be games that just won't be able to run on an original switch. Plus we already have games that require Lite users to buy JoyCons separately (although that is less of an issue than the system entirely stopping them from playing)
A reasonable way to frame this sentiment. Were there PS4 pro or Xbox 1X exclusives? I was not at all concerned, if there were exclusives then sure some people couldn't play them but there's a massive install base and library at this point. All I wanted was slightly higher frame rate, 1080p 60 locked would've done it for me and we didn't even get that.
I'm relieved to know I won't really be missing out by not getting this version. The white looks really nice, and OLED screens are gorgeous...but that's about it.
You won't get a Nintendo console on par with XB or PS ever, Nintendo unlike Sony and Microsoft are not tech giants, the only way they would produce a high end machine (which is pretty pointless) is if the hefty price tag for it is passed onto the consumer.
@@Zaphod-ef9yz I think they could do it, they might need to collaborate with another company to get the parts, but it can be done. Granted that won't happen until PC component prices come back down. Heck making a small GPU and/or CPU upgrade to ensure a solid 60 frames would please a lot of people, and keep it being backwards compatible with older switch titles. Heck, make it run other games as well, like DS games. Add accessories so it can run gameboy games too via USB type C expansion. lol. These are just my dumb thoughts.
@@5folklore They're not dumb thoughts, it's possible that they could but I am not sure what collaboration that would be or what it would look like, presumably there would need to be something in it for the other party. All these "Pro" expectations sound more like a new console to me, it just doesn't make sense to bring out a weird half a gen ahead thing witb it's own games. There is a reason 90's add ons all failed. I still recall everyone saying how great the Wii was "oh if only it was HD" so they brought the Wii U out that hardly anyone bought. The Switch is like the console we wanted that we didn't realise. So many of those people who were like "wIi U hAs nO gAmEs" went on to buy a Switch just for Wii U ports. Whoever knew how great the Wii U was if you could have just took it out of the room...
@@Zaphod-ef9yz It might pay them to look at AMD, maybe, really just getting a solid frame rate with no drops would be a step up. They could be more open to working with the competition; since steam is stepping into the handheld gaming market, granted I feel like the handheld steam machine will fail like the previous attempts. Nintendo and Steam, bringing steam gaming to the switch with the switch PRO, powered by AMD. lol. Along with a better online service. Nintendo eshop for nintendo games and access to PC exclusive games via steam.
@@5folklore That would certainly be a bit crazy.. I think the next thing they do will be the Switches successor (with 100% backward compatibility, maybe more optimisation) but what that will look like is anyones guess I suppose. Right now, Steam Deck has prevented me buying a Series S. I didn't bother with XB1 since there never seemed to be much that interested me that wasn't on 360 or came later to Switch. I had just reached the point I thought the Series S may be worth it at the affordable price point with game pass and the ability to catch up on a handful of XB1 games that interested me but now? Now I am thinking for a little more, the Deck could pretty much give me that experience with the bonus of a pretty decent PC (compared to my low end laptop) but again, I would need to see what that actually looks like before jumping in. I agree with you about Valve's previous attempts with Steam Machine, the Deck seems cool but I just have to see it in action first. I thought "8th Gen" was generally a pretty dull time in gaming, very samey.. but this one is getting pretty interesting.
I feel like this is an unfinished piece of tech. If so, they really shouldn’t have released this one just yet. It’s as if nintendo’s idea of a switch revision is putting on a fancy new screen and painting the console white. Btw, the color scheme suspiciously reminds me of the PS5.
Yup they're capitalizing on the new "Main White + Black Highlights" trend. Quest 2, PS5, XBOX Series S... now Switch (OLED Model). Damn it Ninty at least call it Switch XL!
This revision is in line with what Nintendo has done for years, this is the XL Revision of the Switch Family. Before the PS4 Pro/Xbox One X a revision was literally a slim version or updated looks not internal upgrades.
Well it is a revision right. It isnt an upgrade or a full on other console. And for an additional 50$ why would anyone want the old switch now. Ofc its not worth an upgrade from my current switch but this seems like the most possible and right thing to do. Ofc a new more powerful cpu is welcome but that would be basically a new console. Is it only me who think this revision actually makes sense ?
@@last5902 it makes sense at the stand point of a person who hasn’t had a switch and wants one, but from the stand point of an actual day one switch fan, it just sort of hurts. From the stand point of a day one fan they just feel like Nintendo doesn’t want to care about their current consumers but want to care about future consumers (which is all companies do these days) so yes it makes sense, but it’s not what the fans wanted
@@RedSharkBlue yes. That i agree with. It just felt like the most right thing to do. But it isnt fair for us who picked up te older switch. Either way im neither haapy nor am i dissapointed by the news
Gonna be a pass for me- I love my switch as it is, and since I already primarily play it through the tv I’m not worried or intrigued about a bigger screen/better sound.🤷🏼♀️
Will be interested to see if they do this for the lite model, seems the handheld perks would be more suitable for the console you only play in handheld.
Nah, it still lacks of power. Also, that crappy Online thing should not exist at all. Like, it's the worse thing Nintendo has done in a very long time.
@@extinctwarriorrace1755 really they could make it better if they sacrifice some battery, but for now with the current price point, it's as good as it's gonna get
The OLED switch does look pretty nice, but I feel like this is more targeted at people that don't have a switch already. For me I'm still looking for that Switch pro or Switch XL, but since the Switch is almost 5 years old. It's most likely the Pro switch will be the Switch 2.0 or the Super switch .
The only differences is literally it's taller, the dock is different, it's a bit heavier, and there's more storage, from what I seen on the Nintendo website literally the same battery life, same play modes, and the same joy con.
No, the difference is the OLED screen. I'm in the market for a new Switch and I'll gladly pay $50 for an OLED screen. The kickstand is a huge improvement and the other things are just gravy. Yeah easily worth $50.
Unless you are a handheld gamer, it's pretty pointless but if you were to get a Switch for the first time, the small increase in price for tbe Oled screen and the extra 32gb storage is worth it. I think the base model will cease manufacture soon though and the Oled will replace it.
The argument is not mute. I don't live in the us. To me, a Switch costs more than 300$ when you convert currency, and I already have one. If Nintendo forced me to buy a new switch just to play botw2 I'd flip out. That's exactly what they did with the 3ds and xenoblade chronicles 1. It was bs then, it would be bs now.
Xenoblade was already on the Wii and the Wii was more than affordable when Xenoblade dropped. So... 1. Your argument that Nintendo forced you to buy a new 3ds is bs. 2. Botw 2 (or whatever it will be called) will also be playable on the switch lite which is around 200$ or less on a deal. So there's no kind of forcing for you to buy the OLED Model Switch. 3. It wasn't bs then, and it wouldn't have been bs now.
@@vladtorcatoriu9080 I know it didn't. But as a Consumer, I don't like the Idea that I'll have to pay more than a month's worth of rent just to buy a console that I already own to play a game or two. If botw2 was 400$ would you seriously buy it? Just imagine if there were PS4pro exclusive games. Or xbone x exclusive games. People would be crazy mad, and the same would happen for the new switch, at least in countries/regions where 350$ is a lot of money
Literally everyone: We want a higher refresh rate, a higher resolution, better computational power to compete with over modern consoles! Nintendo: We've listened to all your feedback and we're finally gonna give you what you've all been asking for: a slightly bigger screen and a wide kickstand.
@@dunngeoncrawlers6910 I ain't buying it until a new switch model comes out where there is actual improvement (performance, processing power, larger memory, fixed Joycon drift, etc.)
IMHO this is the most underwhelming revision to a console I've ever seen. Personally speaking there's nothing here that would entice me to spend an additional $350 for the minor upgrades i could get for cheaper through third party attachments (save for the OLED display). I would rather put that money towards either a new console, or more games.
It's alright IMO, I saw people spend 300 to buy the animal crossing switch when it came out. The only thing that had was different colors. 350 for an OLED, slightly larger screen, and the new dock it's not so bad. It's a more compelling buy for someone who doesn't have a switch yet.
But it's not suppose to be a replacement tho, is like nobody with a 3ds would upgrade to a 3ds xl but those who don't own a 3ds would obviously go for the 3ds xl
@@Salvatore_Plaia the switch came out 2017 its 2021 I don't understand why Nintendo is appealing to the minority of people who hasn't gotten a switch yet not the majority of the fans that already have a switch.
I really hope this kills the “Switch Pro” garbage for a while. Nintendo has said themselves they aren’t going to say or do anything until they want to so the endless speculation is pointless.

@@whocares3701 oh, I believe you. I had bought a switch lite after my daughter broke my launch switch. I only bought the lite because I couldn't find a docked console. Then I came across the ACNH Switch. So I feel you.
I agree whole heartedly.I love the way it looks, the screen, kickstand, and audio improvements are great, but I don't play much other than docked. I also don't really use wireless for the switch much anyway, so the lan cable serves me no purpose. I think it's a great idea, and it's a great thing that nintendo has begun to deliver the switch pro. However, for someone who has already spent $300 on a switch that i'm perfectly happy with, I don't really see the need to upgrade. What i would say overall is: If you don't have a switch and want one, get this new one. No reason not to, unless it's going to be more expensive. If you already have a switch, don't bother. it's not quite worth it, especially if it's going to be more expensive.
@@citeltheof $350 for the same exact Switch we've been playing for 4+ years now, but with very minor tweaks. You can get an Xbox Series S for $50 cheaper. Lulz on that.
I feel like I'll probably get this when my switch finally dies, unless they come out with a Pro (but I doubt that will happen anytime soon). This is because I don't really play in handheld very much and I don't use an Ethernet cable so that doesn't work for me. I hope they sale the white joy-cons separately cause that's what I like the most about this Switch.
@@blakelandry9313 no it's not lol. But i agree they won't make a pro version as they have no reason to do it. They will probably just come with a brand new console somewhere in 2023

I've had mine for a few months now & I LOVE it. Again, mostly cosmetic improvements over some internal ones. Totally worth it for me, mostly in part to the trade in difference I got with my old switch. If this would be your first switch console, I'd spring for the extra $50. But if you already have one or you mostly play docked, It wouldn't be the worst thing to hang on to it and hold out for the new console that should be coming out within the next year or 2.🤷♀️
EXACTLY, I’ve been waiting for there to be better FPS on the switch and BETTER quality AND THEY HAD a chance with this new switch but they just decided not to do it which is sad, not worth worth getting it tbh
I don’t think they CAN mention if they correct joycon drift even if they do or don’t. That would be admitting they knew/know there’s a problem with the joycons out there and that’d open up legality issues. I am getting this because my switch is a first gen and it’s a refurbished lol Biggest things I think would make this better: Bluetooth and the dock at least outputting 4K. We don’t need 4K in handheld. Maybe a little better hardware to just run a little smoother
Yeah, it's not really anything special, just slightly bigger screen in handheld, with it being OLED, battery life is extended, depending on game and 64 gb internal space as opposed to 32 in the v2 switch and switch lite. Also the dock has a lan port, doesn't include a cable :c sad
Same exact boat, got mine less than a month ago and started researching and hearing about a new model… Had a slight bit of regret but I can rest easy now!

@@ferenkjaffet yeah, Fanbases in general are really bad in our modern days, they’re incredibly toxic, force down ridiculous expectations, believe baseless rumors and leaks, then the company gets backlash when something that was never planned doesn’t happen.
This is such a disappointment. It’s classic Nintendo to bring something out that is less than expected. I’m sure it will be nice for those that need a new switch or don’t have one but honestly you know they will do what they always do and release 3 or 4 models in a 4-5 year span and I’ll just wait till that fifth revision when they finally upgrade the internals
Profoundly don't care. As somebody who plays their switch in handheld less than 10 times a year. The screen being better doesn't matter. The new kickstand is awesome. But it's somebody who already owns a switch I have no incentive to upgrade
Same. Not to mention, I've still got a huge backlog of DS and 3DS games to play when it comes to portable gaming. The 3DS has SO many more exclusives than the Switch.

Guys just buy the skull&co audiostick. It literally is like the best accessory I bought for the switch.

I wanna play my games on the TV, 2. I really like the 7 inch screen so I would like to play my games on the 7 inch screen in hand held mode, and 3. *W I D E*. And yeah that's pretty much all my reasons I wanna get the OLED.

The oled helps with battery conservation. You actually get about an hour more of battery life than the previous.
I feel like this is more of a “3DS XL” upgrade than a “New 3DS” upgrade. And as for the wedge between OLED and non-OLED owners….I mean, it’s still barely a wedge compared to an internal upgrade. Sure the screen is better and slightly bigger, but that’s waaaaay different than new, better internals. Many people don’t feel like they have to upgrade here. New internals with exclusive games/better running games? Much more necessary.

I agree with your point about the price. The regular Switch should've been reduced in price from $299 to $249. The new OLED model should've been $299 or $319. Three tiers, three price points.
YES! That’s my big issue I think? Along with non 4K? Like it looks pretty, very sleek, but not much change?
Have you not heard? We are experiencing hyperinflation right now.
They won't do that because they then wouldn't make a profit off the console sale. $350 for 7 inch OLED gaming system is actually pretty cheap anyways comparatively speaking.
The most egregious thing is you can buy an Xbox Series S for $50 cheaper and a PS5 Digital edition for $50 more.

The animal crossing design is the nicest looking switch I’ve seen in my opinion. I love how the colors and design on the joycons are so significantly different then any other Nintendo switch I’ve seen so far, I just think they could have done better with the design of the OLED model.

"The Battery is the same" - No. It is not. It is the same Wattage for sure, but with an bigger OLED, the Battery will drain faster. So, the portable-expirience will become worse. And the Switch did not have a great Battery from begin with...
@@debblez
We will see. Switchgames are for usual very bright (in Color)
CNET says the following;
"The only way to make OLED more energy-efficient is to reduce its brightness, but since that reduces its contrast ratio as well, it's not ideal. So we'll give this category to LCD, even though it's fairly close and neither uses much power. Depending on size, settings, and how much you watch it (of course) it's around $20 to $30 a year to run a modern TV."
Even when they say "neither uses much power", this is based on electrical devices in general. On a portable with a bigger screen, i think it does play a major role on battery life. Maybe not on all games, but as far as it goes for switchgames, i am willing to bet, that the majority of fan-Favorites (Mario, Zelda, Splatoon, etc) will take a hit with an larger OLED.
My switch for whatever reason has a good battery??? Like I didn't use it for months and it was still on it was a low battery but it was still on. I realize when playing games it goes faster which sucks and the battery on the first model wasn't that great.
Personally in my experience the switch lasted a Hella long time and I've been pleased with it.
My switch only last like 3 hr am I tripping
Wrong. Oled consumes less power. You'll get the same / better battery life. ;)

As someone who only ever plays switch in docked mode, this new model does nothing for me :/ Excited for those who play almost always in handheld mode though! Have fun with that new OLED screen
Yeah, if you play mostly on TV, then stay away from the new Switch.
Couldn’t agree more. This “upgrade” is worthless for people who play docked.
Nintendo has only been catering to portable players tho 😂Switch Lite is only for portable play and the previous Switch revision was better on battery life, which only matters if you’re a portable player. Now, they get a better screen and speakers. Is it really a hybrid console if they only care about the portable aspect? Maybe they should just stick to portable and exit the home console market.
Same for me. I use a switch lite for handheld gameplay cause I have small hands and the normal switch just isn’t comfortable for longer sessions in handheld to me. I would love though if they do a Switch lite oled model!
So what’s the point of getting this new OLED switch now and then they decide to release the Pro version with OLED?? Wouldn’t that just be a waste of your money?!

Yes to all of this!
I love how you're battling with yourself about this even though you will be buying it either way. Just love the back and forth lol
By the fact that switch joycons are $80, it would be nice if you could just buy the switch body without the joycons for $80 less because the joycons are the same, I'mma probably just keep my switch tho, I don't really mind it's performance, battery life, or the size of the screen, I'll most likely swap it out 2 or 3 models down the line
same. i don’t think a bigger screen really makes up for the fact that switch users have to constantly buy new joy-cons due to drift.

@@aggrooverkill517 when did he mention the screen
@@joshuaijaola2145 I don't remember seeing games that only work on the X and Pro so it isn't an issue there, whereas there exists a whole library of games including minecraft and xenoblad which didn't run on the original 3DS - given the already low-spec nature of the switch it isn't foolish to say that there _could_ be games that just won't be able to run on an original switch. Plus we already have games that require Lite users to buy JoyCons separately (although that is less of an issue than the system entirely stopping them from playing)
A reasonable way to frame this sentiment. Were there PS4 pro or Xbox 1X exclusives? I was not at all concerned, if there were exclusives then sure some people couldn't play them but there's a massive install base and library at this point. All I wanted was slightly higher frame rate, 1080p 60 locked would've done it for me and we didn't even get that.
I'm relieved to know I won't really be missing out by not getting this version. The white looks really nice, and OLED screens are gorgeous...but that's about it.

@@Zaphod-ef9yz I think they could do it, they might need to collaborate with another company to get the parts, but it can be done. Granted that won't happen until PC component prices come back down.

Heck, make it run other games as well, like DS games. Add accessories so it can run gameboy games too via USB type C expansion. lol. These are just my dumb thoughts.
@@5folklore They're not dumb thoughts, it's possible that they could but I am not sure what collaboration that would be or what it would look like, presumably there would need to be something in it for the other party.
All these "Pro" expectations sound more like a new console to me, it just doesn't make sense to bring out a weird half a gen ahead thing witb it's own games. There is a reason 90's add ons all failed.
I still recall everyone saying how great the Wii was "oh if only it was HD" so they brought the Wii U out that hardly anyone bought.
The Switch is like the console we wanted that we didn't realise. So many of those people who were like "wIi U hAs nO gAmEs" went on to buy a Switch just for Wii U ports. Whoever knew how great the Wii U was if you could have just took it out of the room...
@@Zaphod-ef9yz It might pay them to look at AMD, maybe, really just getting a solid frame rate with no drops would be a step up. They could be more open to working with the competition; since steam is stepping into the handheld gaming market, granted I feel like the handheld steam machine will fail like the previous attempts.
Nintendo and Steam, bringing steam gaming to the switch with the switch PRO, powered by AMD. lol. Along with a better online service. Nintendo eshop for nintendo games and access to PC exclusive games via steam.
@@5folklore That would certainly be a bit crazy.. I think the next thing they do will be the Switches successor (with 100% backward compatibility, maybe more optimisation) but what that will look like is anyones guess I suppose.
Right now, Steam Deck has prevented me buying a Series S. I didn't bother with XB1 since there never seemed to be much that interested me that wasn't on 360 or came later to Switch. I had just reached the point I thought the Series S may be worth it at the affordable price point with game pass and the ability to catch up on a handful of XB1 games that interested me but now?
Now I am thinking for a little more, the Deck could pretty much give me that experience with the bonus of a pretty decent PC (compared to my low end laptop) but again, I would need to see what that actually looks like before jumping in. I agree with you about Valve's previous attempts with Steam Machine, the Deck seems cool but I just have to see it in action first.
I thought "8th Gen" was generally a pretty dull time in gaming, very samey.. but this one is getting pretty interesting.
I feel like this is an unfinished piece of tech. If so, they really shouldn’t have released this one just yet. It’s as if nintendo’s idea of a switch revision is putting on a fancy new screen and painting the console white. Btw, the color scheme suspiciously reminds me of the PS5.
Yup they're capitalizing on the new "Main White + Black Highlights" trend.
Quest 2, PS5, XBOX Series S... now Switch (OLED Model). Damn it Ninty at least call it Switch XL!
This revision is in line with what Nintendo has done for years, this is the XL Revision of the Switch Family. Before the PS4 Pro/Xbox One X a revision was literally a slim version or updated looks not internal upgrades.
Well it is a revision right. It isnt an upgrade or a full on other console. And for an additional 50$ why would anyone want the old switch now. Ofc its not worth an upgrade from my current switch but this seems like the most possible and right thing to do. Ofc a new more powerful cpu is welcome but that would be basically a new console. Is it only me who think this revision actually makes sense ?
@@last5902 it makes sense at the stand point of a person who hasn’t had a switch and wants one, but from the stand point of an actual day one switch fan, it just sort of hurts.

Unless you are a handheld gamer, it's pretty pointless but if you were to get a Switch for the first time, the small increase in price for tbe Oled screen and the extra 32gb storage is worth it. I think the base model will cease manufacture soon though and the Oled will replace it.

The argument is not mute.
I don't live in the us. To me, a Switch costs more than 300$ when you convert currency, and I already have one.

yeah alot of people are glad the oled model doesn't have any internal upgrades cause it means no games are gonna be exclusive to it
that’s a bad comparaison because the old 3ds did not have the hardware to run xénon made chronicles
Xenoblade was already on the Wii and the Wii was more than affordable when Xenoblade dropped.
So...
1. Your argument that Nintendo forced you to buy a new 3ds is bs.
2. Botw 2 (or whatever it will be called) will also be playable on the switch lite which is around 200$ or less on a deal. So there's no kind of forcing for you to buy the OLED Model Switch.

Just imagine if there were PS4pro exclusive games. Or xbone x exclusive games. People would be crazy mad, and the same would happen for the new switch, at least in countries/regions where 350$ is a lot of money
Literally everyone: We want a higher refresh rate, a higher resolution, better computational power to compete with over modern consoles!
Nintendo: We've listened to all your feedback and we're finally gonna give you what you've all been asking for: a slightly bigger screen and a wide kickstand.
People we still buy it, while they complain about it haha. Only for Nintendo 😁
I thought kickstand and screen are what a lot wants as well?
Yes ofc
@@dunngeoncrawlers6910 I ain't buying it until a new switch model comes out where there is actual improvement (performance, processing power, larger memory, fixed Joycon drift, etc.)
@@pencilcheck Yes, but those are the least things people want Nintendo to fix xd
You opened up my eyes big time. This is the most basic of all basics of reasons why I don’t need it lol. Until the 4K switch appears atleast
Sheesh 4K switch 2025
Finally reached 2011 technology with the OLED
OLED isn't outdated yet though. And the Vita didn't sell that well over here anyway soooo....
As someone who plays docked mode 99% of the time I'm going to pass on this one.
As someone who plays handheld 99% of the time I'm gonna pass on it
As someone who does 50% 50% I'm gonna pass until they can get breath of the wild to not lag at the lost woods
As someone who doesn't have a switch, im gonna pass on this one
As someone who's getting a switch soon, i will too be passing on this one.
@@bigmann800 why it's only $50 more and you are getting a better screen and more storage
Tbh this switch isn’t bad, I just don’t think I need another switch😂
Do what I’m going to do: sell your previous switch and get this one
Yeah, but I just got another switch, and I feel it’s not that worth it
I don't think it's baaaad... It's just not worth the improvement. It isn't the revision it should have been.
@@Hjasprr I suppose that’s a viable reasoning, but my switch is 3 years old and has barely any blemishes, so I’m gonna sell it for the new one :)
I won’t get this one (mostly because I got the normal one last Saturday) but the changes they made are just not good enough
Nintendo disappointed everyone then valve took advantage lol
Lol I agree. I am very excited for Valve's new release, especially since I do not own a Gaming PC and I am missing out on a lot of cool games!
@@TodayTamaraForever yeah fr it’s great hardware for cheap!
Valve is making something new ??? Hmm might have to look into this and take my 2nd and 3rd switch console money somewhere else
@@OGkush69x only 50 more bucks over the oled model with out the ridiculous game prices and with free online
@@WallLurker memory on the base model kinda sucks tho… can u input an sd card?
IMHO this is the most underwhelming revision to a console I've ever seen. Personally speaking there's nothing here that would entice me to spend an additional $350 for the minor upgrades i could get for cheaper through third party attachments (save for the OLED display). I would rather put that money towards either a new console, or more games.
It's alright IMO, I saw people spend 300 to buy the animal crossing switch when it came out. The only thing that had was different colors.
350 for an OLED, slightly larger screen, and the new dock it's not so bad. It's a more compelling buy for someone who doesn't have a switch yet.
It’s not a console to upgrade to, it’s a console for those who don’t have a switch yet
"Most underwhelming revision to a console" you must be unaware of the PSVita
But it's not suppose to be a replacement tho, is like nobody with a 3ds would upgrade to a 3ds xl but those who don't own a 3ds would obviously go for the 3ds xl
@@Salvatore_Plaia the switch came out 2017 its 2021 I don't understand why Nintendo is appealing to the minority of people who hasn't gotten a switch yet not the majority of the fans that already have a switch.
"It's gonna match a lot of people's Playstation 5s" 🤣🤣🤣
And Xbox Series S
And this is why I don’t listen to rumors.
Exactly. And people expect these rumors to be fact and only get themselves disappointed
@@Taiokarlo and honestly I was getting so annoyed with the switch pro talk lol
I really hope this kills the “Switch Pro” garbage for a while. Nintendo has said themselves they aren’t going to say or do anything until they want to so the endless speculation is pointless.
Can't wait for the new model to come out, looks like I have something yeeted in my wishlist this year's Christmas
"you GOTTA love a 7 incher" *sips coffee*
Beatemups you NEVER fail to entertain, it has only been I who has failed to tune in. Been rockin since 2018 brotha! Love the content now and then.
@yuitr loing lol mee too I bought the ACNH switch thinking I wouldn't see it on the market again. I'm happy with it though.
@@carlosrendon3751 I bought two 🙃
@@whocares3701 no.......lol
@@carlosrendon3751 yes I did
@@whocares3701 oh, I believe you. I had bought a switch lite after my daughter broke my launch switch. I only bought the lite because I couldn't find a docked console. Then I came across the ACNH Switch. So I feel you.
I agree whole heartedly.I love the way it looks, the screen, kickstand, and audio improvements are great, but I don't play much other than docked. I also don't really use wireless for the switch much anyway, so the lan cable serves me no purpose. I think it's a great idea, and it's a great thing that nintendo has begun to deliver the switch pro. However, for someone who has already spent $300 on a switch that i'm perfectly happy with, I don't really see the need to upgrade. What i would say overall is:
If you don't have a switch and want one, get this new one. No reason not to, unless it's going to be more expensive.
If you already have a switch, don't bother. it's not quite worth it, especially if it's going to be more expensive.
It's gonna be $350 or so I heard from one source there's a very large chance that was clickbait tho.
@@citeltheof $350 for the same exact Switch we've been playing for 4+ years now, but with very minor tweaks. You can get an Xbox Series S for $50 cheaper. Lulz on that.
I feel like I'll probably get this when my switch finally dies, unless they come out with a Pro (but I doubt that will happen anytime soon). This is because I don't really play in handheld very much and I don't use an Ethernet cable so that doesn't work for me. I hope they sale the white joy-cons separately cause that's what I like the most about this Switch.
I don’t think they’re even going to make a switch pro because the switch is lifespan is about over
@@blakelandry9313 no it's not lol. But i agree they won't make a pro version as they have no reason to do it. They will probably just come with a brand new console somewhere in 2023
I’m just gonna get the white dock for my original switch, red, blue, and white, what a mix
@@zo_maar damn, you sure its not like a side version like the lite or 2.0? Cause if its not it would be better if they released it along side botw 2 if you see it from nintendos pov they would get more sales.
Most likely after release they will be on sale separately
I've had mine for a few months now & I LOVE it. Again, mostly cosmetic improvements over some internal ones. Totally worth it for me, mostly in part to the trade in difference I got with my old switch. If this would be your first switch console, I'd spring for the extra $50. But if you already have one or you mostly play docked, It wouldn't be the worst thing to hang on to it and hold out for the new console that should be coming out within the next year or 2.🤷♀️
Switch Pro in the future : The OLED model with a new chip.
Nonono my friend.
-no joycon drift.
That's the switch pro
My reaction to the new switch “That’s it?… WFT is this?”
They all just “playing” the trailers 😂😂
Not worth it, not even FPS improvements
EXACTLY, I’ve been waiting for there to be better FPS on the switch and BETTER quality AND THEY HAD a chance with this new switch but they just decided not to do it which is sad, not worth worth getting it tbh
@@elisana06 ITS 1080P!
@@syrianball1875 WAIT- 💀👜 damn bro
@@elisana06 dude I see a huge deference between 720 and 1080
@@syrianball1875 you are right especially for a 7 inch screen but the sad thing is the upcoming device is 720P
I don’t think they CAN mention if they correct joycon drift even if they do or don’t. That would be admitting they knew/know there’s a problem with the joycons out there and that’d open up legality issues. I am getting this because my switch is a first gen and it’s a refurbished lol
Biggest things I think would make this better: Bluetooth and the dock at least outputting 4K. We don’t need 4K in handheld. Maybe a little better hardware to just run a little smoother
And Bluetooth has been enabled on every switch with a software update recently!
I just bought a switch and I’m kind of relieved. I can live without that white one.
Yeah, it's not really anything special, just slightly bigger screen in handheld, with it being OLED, battery life is extended, depending on game and 64 gb internal space as opposed to 32 in the v2 switch and switch lite. Also the dock has a lan port, doesn't include a cable :c sad
I just got one too, but my will is weaker than yours lol
Racist.
Same exact boat, got mine less than a month ago and started researching and hearing about a new model… Had a slight bit of regret but I can rest easy now!
I like the white joy cons I hope they sell that color separately
I literally just saw the video for the new switch and was thinking “I bet Beatemups is gonna make a video about this”.
SAME
Predicting a switch streamer to make a switch video? What are the lottery numbers please?
Yeah I had literally just tapped on the ign video trailer on it and then right when I finished it, I got notified of this video
You are stating the obvious
Damn bro what a gamble.
I never bought any of the “improved hardware”/ “switch pro” rumors so I am not really disappointed by this lol
same. i thought that either it would get an "addition" like the wii u was for the wii, or just a new different thing lol
The dude on the shoe box is ridiculous. He’s feeling the burn that bad.
If you're sick of rumors, stop believing them. You all should've learned when the Stewie controller was "revealed."
I completely agree,nintendo only said they might make a new switch version not a 4k imrpoved hardware everything,people are getting so mad over something that was never confimred.
Oh god, that wretched thing! Don't ever say its name again!
Or endorsing them, building hype and clickbaiting with them to farm views
this right here is the best comment in all this video, this whole mess was caused by the non stopping rumors and the people who made videos about them, building hype over something that wasn't even announced, and now that it is here and is not what they wanted, they blame nintendo, like wtf
@@ferenkjaffet yeah, Fanbases in general are really bad in our modern days, they’re incredibly toxic, force down ridiculous expectations, believe baseless rumors and leaks, then the company gets backlash when something that was never planned doesn’t happen.
Trailer: *Shows anything*
BeatUmUps: "Oh dear oh dear, gorgeous"
They’d be better off making an oled lite since is meant to be played handheld. They keep selling us the same product in different colors 🤷♀️
Yes I would buy an oled lite bc thats worth my money, the switch is too heavy and big for me to play in handheld mode

No one’s gonna stop me from buying my 1st ever SWITCH!
@Name Unavailable pretty much what am gonna do
This is such a disappointment. It’s classic Nintendo to bring something out that is less than expected. I’m sure it will be nice for those that need a new switch or don’t have one but honestly you know they will do what they always do and release 3 or 4 models in a 4-5 year span and I’ll just wait till that fifth revision when they finally upgrade the internals
This is such a disappointment if you truly believed the 4K switch rumors, it was obviously not going to happen
Less than expected?
Only of the people that fell for the rumours
@@Will5353_ exactly expect nothing unless it comes from offical Nintendo sources.
You should not believe rumors
This is why you shouldn't trust those damn 4k upscaling dlss rumors.
Profoundly don't care. As somebody who plays their switch in handheld less than 10 times a year. The screen being better doesn't matter. The new kickstand is awesome. But it's somebody who already owns a switch I have no incentive to upgrade
I know right this isn’t much of a upgrade it’s not really Worth it
especially when you can just buy a thin case that will have a better stand than the OG stand
Ngl I almost always play handheld
Same. Not to mention, I've still got a huge backlog of DS and 3DS games to play when it comes to portable gaming. The 3DS has SO many more exclusives than the Switch.
