449 usd is pretty disappointing. A steam deck is pretty much the same price but is repairable and i don't have to pay for an online subscription. And even the steam deck doesn't appeal to me much since i like FPS games, which are better if played from a proper PC. At this point i'm sticking with my Nintendo 3DS for gaming away from home.

470€ vs 570€ for OLED 512GB. With 80€ (digital, 90€ physical) base price for a game, you'd probably go break even in like 2-3 games, especially when buying games on sales (Nintendo don't do that) and older titles (Nintendo don't discount these either)

P.S. $450 vs $550 for US

Though the Switch 2 doesn't have 512GB of storage or an OLED screen. The cheaper Steam Deck that's a closer match is $50 cheaper than the Switch 2, $400 in the US.

In the past month i was also considering to buy a Wii to play some games with friends, but i waited to see if the switch 2 could be worth it. Now i'm seriously considering the Wii.

You will never run out of games to play with a softmodded Wii plus a massive SD card. Make sure your Wii has the correct ports and get some Gamecube controllers too.

Doesn’t Wii only support sd cards up to 4GB?

With homebrew, you can go all the way up to 1TB

I thought it was a hardware limitation

It's way easier to use Dolphin. You haven't truly lived until you've played Mario Kart Wii in 4k HDR :) They make USB powered sensor bars. Wiimotes connect over Bluetooth, you just need to get a BT adapter that is compatible (many chipsets are finicky with Wiimotes).

I recommend getting an unpatched switch, if you have more than 5 games you would like to play.
