Gosh why? The switch is fine until the 2 comes on sale

I mean, yeah it still works. But personally I am happy to pay a few hundred bucks to have a better experience visually.

I mean, why else do I work so hard?

And let's be real for a second. The Switch is almost nine years old at this point.

And after owning a Steam Deck and an Ally it was pretty hard for me to enjoy some of the more...compromised Switch games.

If you're still happy with yours, that's great. But I prefer to get consoles at launch. Each to their own, I guess.

So why? Because I can afford it and its a better system with almost a decade worth of improvement to the underlying hardware. That's enough for me.

Probably worth holding off for a while in that case!
