    I've been thinking about getting a switch. Do you think this is better than just getting the regular one or possibly waiting for an update model in the future?
    I'm not super up to date with Nintendo news.

      At this stage, I wouldn't wait for an upgraded version that's more powerful. I have a theory that this was the "Switch Pro" that was rumoured last year, but with the current chip shortages and the rising cost of manufacturing, I think this was all they could produce. From this point, it's unlikely there will be a more powerful Switch that isn't just a whole new console, and that's probably still a few years away.

      As for whether to get this one or the regular version, that depends if you think you'll want to play handheld or not. If you think you'll use it in handheld mode then this would be the best one since it has a bigger, brighter screen and much better speakers, but if it's just going to stay docked to the TV you could save some money and get the regular one since there's no difference in performance.

        The dock has a LAN port on the OLED model so there is some benefit in buying OLED even if you only play docked.

    If you only play docked, then there isn't a difference. If you don't already own a switch, it's worth it for the better screen and kickstand.

    If you want a switch just buy one now. The OLED released a few months ago and there is no newer model that we know of, just rumors as usual. The switch just passed 100 million units sold, it's probably about halfway through it's lifecycle.

    I’m irrationally tempted to buy one of these just for Mario Kart. I have a last gen Xbox One X that is basically just my media centre (streaming/Plex) and maybe a dozen games, but I never actually game on it.

    Must… resist… temptation…

      Can people stop buying mario kart, we'll never get MK9 the rate MK8 is still selling 😂

      Also, if you want some life for your Xbox check out the gamepass deals, so many games for not much money if you do it right.

  • baishishun on 18/01/2022 - 14:33

    Good price, I think only the market with 10OFF can near this price. Just don’t know when haha

      Great info thanks - might just take the plunge. Though very strange that the AC version doesn't actually come with the game haha

      Hilariously this game themed console doesn't come with the game or the controller adaptor!

    Came to $557 for me with the VISA fee they charge now. Same price if you manage to get it from the market with a 10% off coupon for those who prefer to buy locally.

    Delivery estimate from Amazon is 2nd Feb - Their AU shipping has been super slow lately.
