| It's only more because it has the game though, right? So if a BotW 2 one comes out, and you're presumably buying the game anyway . . . |

| As I say standard Switch is £260, the Monster Hunter Edition is £340, it comes with the game which is £49.99rpp, that is £30 more to have it looking fancy.
But as I say I've got my discount to take into account, that do I want to pay that £30 for it to look fancy (It would be more as I'd shop around to get BotW2 less than £50 (I'll but the fancy edition of the game anyway lol)) or save like £60 maybe even more if we get a double discount soon. |

| Well we see Buska, bonus might be rubbish and double discount might be ages away, then we get an announcement of a Splatoon 3 OLED Switch. |

| Prediction: you buy a normal OLED then buy a special Zelda one anyway. And only play either of them docked |

| Why a special edition would make more sense as would be there looking nice, hey if I can get a normal OLED for like £48, going to be worth it still. |

I have done this, as got bonus and we had them in work, it cost me £278.10p. Now it's what I do with my Animal Crossing one as prices all over the place on eBay who take 13% (roughly) that taking to CEX might be easiest way. |

| I'm sure we're all shocked that Mas, who basically only plays games docked, has bought the upgrade that only improves things in handheld. |

| I played a bit last night of MK8 after it downloaded and darn the screen is really nice Balla, that I think the best MK8 has ever looked.
Ohh my OLD Switch went on eBay right away for £200 (£177 after fees, so OLED cost £100 basically). |

| If it gets you playing more games in handheld mode, I won't say a word against it! But also, you don't need to advertise it to me, I want one already. I've got to save a bit of money at the moment for moving house, but I'll probably get it for myself as a reward for completing that. |

| I upgraded my launch day Switch to the OLED model, and I’ve been playing on it for about a week now. All in all, I think it’s a decent upgrade. Everything you’d heard or read about the improved screen, the improved audio and the improved battery is definitely true. It’s an appreciably better system than the original Switch. Not drastically so, mind you. I wish there was a bit more to it. There’s a definitely sniff of ‘…is that it?’ with the Switch OLED, feeling like a bit of a missed opportunity to increase its processing power and its overall capabilities.
Whoever you are and whatever decision you’ve made about the OLED Switch, it’s probably the right one. This supposed leak about a Switch Pro that was doing the rounds on Twitter is well cheeky though. |

| Yep as I know four people (one is myself) who have bought an OLED this week or so, and then to see Super Switch talk Which might be true as well coming from another NVIDIA leak and most of the last NVIDIA one has been true so far. |

| The way they showed off the OLED model in the Pokemon trailer makes me reckon we'll get a special edition for those games, so I reckon I'll wait for that - unless a Zelda one gets revealed in the meantime, 'natch. - The Cappuccino Kid wrote:

| Oh hey, forgot to mention: I've got one of these! So y'all have me to thank when a new Switch is announced in this coming month. I'm bad at noticing differences in graphical fidelity. I'm almost sure I would have trotted along happily for years in SD if the Wii U hadn't dragged me into the HD era. So it shouldn't surprise anybody that I'm not noticing that much of a difference in graphical quality. The biggest difference will probably be when I scratch the screen, because I couldn't get the protector on right. The new kickstand is nice though, not that I'll ever use it. One more thing: why can't I just transfer my downloaded games on the same SD card to my new Switch? Why do I have to reformat the card and redownload them? How is this in any way helpful to anyone Nintendo!? |

| That all sounds like about what I expected to be honest.
I'll probably get the Splatoon one if I can get ahold of it. Not so much for the upgrade, but because my original model will be five and a half years of a rugged adventurous lifestyle old. |

| I find the screen is lovely for 2D stuff mostly and colours pop.
Switch DLSS announced soon then, nice. |

| DoPo: Having said that I didn't see that big a difference in graphical quality, I've just played Neon White for the first time on the big telly. It looks worse. So I didn't notice the improvement much, instead I'm just noticing that things look worse everywhere else. Technology is rubbish, leave me alone with my zoetropes. |

| I'm often that way with new screen technology. I don't think I care about things like definition and frame rate when I go forwards, but I notice them massively when I step back. |

| Of course the OLED is a OLED screen, and going to guess your TV isn't but really it's about the size & resolution. Why Elden Ring, apprantly looks great on the SteamDeck as that size screen even at 800p will do, then soon as you blow it up and put on a 48" screen etc you'll see thing's far more noticeably. |
