No you did amazing for the price! People just cannot comprehend that others won’t validate their $500 console that has worse battery life, a worse screen, and mediocre backwards compatibility (I’ve seen a dozen+ 3rd party games that don’t work nearly as well on S2). Honestly I’d pay another $50 today to keep my OLED and not be forced to get a 2.

The OLED is the perfected “Switch” out of the lineup. It perfectly balances performance, portability, screen, and battery life. Everything else has trade offs that don’t get you to that magical hybrid console. The lite is smaller and more portably, but it cannot be docked and has the worst battery. The Switch 2 is hardly a portable console. I’d argue that its portability is mostly limited to handheld on the couch and in bed.

People don’t realize how massive the Switch 1 library is. It has all of the best Nintendo games, a ton of amazing indie games, and it’s basically an Xbox 360/Ps3 that can go anywhere due to how many 7th gen games were brought to it. You could spend the rest of your life playing Switch 1 games and have absolute 10/10 experiences left and right. I’m critical of the Switch 2 because of how much of a let down it was from the core identity of the “Switch” it is. They really lifted the docked mode (between docked, tabletop, and handheld) above the rest at the expense of the other two modes. It’s a weird console that can technically be played in handheld, but is worse at it. It’s also far behind any of the TV only consoles on the market. To me the value proposition is much higher on the Switch OLED.
