The first Switch was such a hit that Nintendo decided not to mess with a good thing. Instead of releasing a successor that feels like a generational leap or a pivot in a new direction, it’s following up the hugely successful original with the Switch 2 — a welcome upgrade that largely sticks to the formula.

Our reviewer has had tons of fun with the Switch 2, but there are some drawbacks. Here's what Nintendo's system gets right and where it falls short.

I was fortunate enough to get my hands on a Nintendo Switch 2 on its launch day, and it's certainly one of my best buys to date. Without delving into an extensive review of the console, it offers the ultimate Switch experience, and I'm eager to see what lies ahead for it.
