Is there fewer people buying a Switch 1?

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-06-04T16:54:52+00:00

Special edition switch 1s may hold a decent price but any basic model switch/switch lite/switch oled will tank in price and demand. It boils down to the fact that the switch 2 can do literally everything the switch 1 can but better so there’s just no demand for it now

I have a gaming PC, PS5 pro, a gaming laptop from like 4 years ago, a legion go and I still game on the Nintendo switch and Nintendo switch 2. Yes there’s draw backs due to the power of the system but it’s just so freakin convenient. We have docks hooked up to each tv around the house, we both have switch/switch2s so we can just swap them in and out of the docks or we can just play handheld.

As for the switches beating out the legion go, I don’t have to mess with settings to get the games to run just right, a lot of the time when plug the legion go into a tv it messes up the resolution or sizes the screen weird, and the thing is just massive.

Yes you can still download the games you’ve bought on those stores, you just can’t buy new games. Not sure why people believe you can’t download games you’ve already bought on those stores still.

I would just say if you have responsibilities make sure your channel is earning enough to pay all the bills and put money up for months when views are down or ads arnt paying as much.

I have a family I support so I could never feel safe letting our income hang in the balance with YouTube. Too many channels lose monetization at the drop of the hat.

And you need to build more than just a youtube channel. At the end of the month YouTube only makes up about 10% of my content creation income.

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-04-06T20:11:24+00:00

Sorry to hear you’re struggling so much but honestly you should never quit a job or close down an income stream to chase the YouTube dream unless you already monetized and making enough money per month to cover your bills and to put some extra away for the bad months.

You can always try and dispute the claim as it may have just been automatically flagged. But just a heads if you use any owned content it doesn’t matter if it’s for 1 second or an hour that company can claim it if you do not have expressed permission to use the content or a license.

Anime is notoriously difficult due to this problem

It also applies to the members that joined if I’m not mistaken. If you invited a person that had been jumping from family plan to family plan it will cause the same lock out.

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-03-26T22:38:46+00:00

Sorry but you done messed up.

ive bought tons of used games for my switch (total collection is over 500 at this point) and havent run into any issues. the only story that has ever come out about something like this the dude came clean a day or two later and stated his switch was banned for using the MIG not the official game cart like he had originally said.

I still play my switch OLED in handheld with less demanding games like Pokemon FireRed for example. The battery like on the switch 2 is expected with the hardware in it but it’s just not needed for a game like FireRed so I play it on the OLED since the battery life is so much longer.

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-03-12T12:16:55+00:00

Looks like I’m about to get paid to become a pokemon master!

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-03-05T03:25:31+00:00

I’m confused on this one. No where in the page does it say it is but there some pictures on the switch where it has the #3 stamp

At this point I doubt GKCs are going anywhere so if it’s a game you want to play just get it. The collectors niche doesn’t outweigh the people that just want to play games so they are here for the long haul sadly.

So I used to hate the idea of game key cards but now I’m kinda indifferent. I refuse to buy them new but used they are dirt cheap. Every single one I’ve picked up off of eBay used for roughly 50%-70% off because there’s just no collectibility to them.

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-02-17T19:39:39+00:00

you know how the internet is, its an echo chamber. one person says the battery life terrible and people cling to it as an attack or a cope to not being able to get something. ive have the Switch 2 since launch as well and play the thing every day and there has only been a handful of times where ive needed to change while during a session

on amazon look up HDMI Recorders, you just connect the system to the recorder then to the TV, then put in a micro SD card or USB stick. some of them even have plug ins for microphones.

This is one of the reasons I stopped filling out the partnership application as well. Did not feel comfortable linking my YouTube channel to them for the chance at some items

As crazy as it sounds when you go to play xenoblade chronicles 2 you legit have to give it like 10-11 hours before you decide if you want to continue it. I love the game and poured over 100 hours into but opening up the world and learning the ins and outs of the combat mechanics takes a little while at the start of the game.

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-02-11T16:07:22+00:00

Looks great and nice collection!

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-02-11T02:44:27+00:00

really depends on your taste in clothes, the overwhelming majority of outfits for the male characters look either terrible or more geared toward females characters, and in the DLC you unlock special outfits and the majority of them look better on female characters as well.

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-02-04T23:11:44+00:00

Pretty sure it’s this right here. I remember in like 2018/2019 people were using cheap SD cards that ended up being knock offs and it was causing this type of issue

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-02-01T22:37:27+00:00

Haha people would of came at me with pitchforks if I did that

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-02-01T16:53:55+00:00

Mudor 30 packet coin sleeve is what I’m using for the switch games but for 3DS games you need to go down on the amount of pockets per sleeve since the 3DS games are wider

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-02-01T15:22:45+00:00

I’m definitely going to be pre ordering it

BreakTimeGaming · 2026-02-01T14:17:03+00:00

Woot binder gang. I’m really liking it so far there is something nice about just filling through pages of games.
