Dvader is right, colours muted on tv, because you need to calibrate for the new input.

But also in switch 2 system settings when I try to calibrate hdr it says my TV doesn't support it and to go into tv settings.

I know my tv has hdr 10 and that is what switch 2 uses. Once I figure this out I suspect the colours will look awesome on my oled tv

In regards to the switch OLED, it's got perfect blacks, even lighting and excellent per pixel contrast.

In 2D games, sure it's better than any other tv technology I've seen. OLEDs I mean.

But Switch 2s screen is bigger, higher definition and the system is more powerful and faster loading. So the combination of all these things is going to make playing 3D games on s2, a much better experience over s1.

I read on Eurogamer that GameStop stapled people's receipts directly to the Switch 2 box and damaged screens. How thin is the box?!

They put the tablet right on the top of the box weirdly. There's two layers of thin cardboard between the screen and you.

A hard ish impact could crack the screen. Weird decision but mine arrived in tact.

I don't think GameStop has made a good decision since 2012.

Will the Atarian ruin Ninja-endo's Switch 2 launch?? Stay tuned to find out!

I don't know why, but he popped into my head earlier today. I will say, the comic was actually far worse than I remembered it. But yeah, bring it back. Why the hell not.

So good and bad news from my switch 2 testing.

Great news, patched Switch games look better than I imagined. Both on the tv and portable.

More great news, unpatched Switch 1 games also run better on switch 2.

Arkham Knight even when driving is a rock solid 30fps. Same for Witcher 3.

Bayonetta 2 and 3 are locked 60fps and other games have better frame rates.

I'm interested to see how DRS works and if the resolution will drop far less, particularly in Snowrunner.

Streetfighter 6 demo is up and it honestly looks far better than expected played offscreen.

There's also comparison footage going around for both SF6 and Cyberpunk switch 2 compared to ps5 and its so close, it doesn't bother me or any normal person.

Played Mario kart world for 10 mins, looks great but it just did two 100cc tracks.

Free roaming seems directionless at the moment to the point where it feels like, why am I doing this? Also because the world is so big I can't consume it without a huge time sink. But I only picked around for 5 mins.

Battery life is notably worse than the OLED, to be expected.

Game cards work worse vs Switch 1? On Switch 1 it tells you if a game is currently installed to your system or not.

Switch 2 has icons to show the game is loaded onto your console, not installed. Loaded means it's authorised to play it on the console.

To see if its installed you have to hover your icon over it on the menu.

Now here's the really bad thing, I updated Luigis Mansion 3 and tried it. It doesn't have an official patch BTW.

So in handheld, it displays at handheld switch 1 resolution, 720p.

And as you can imagine, 720p on a larger, 1080p screen doesn't look good due to upscaling, the normal kind not DLSS.

So unless these games are all patched they are going to look blurrier in handheld compared to switch 1.

One suggestion is to allow switch 2 to display switch 1 games handheld in their docked configuration.

Most of my physical games are either 2D or Nintendo games so I imagine most will look okay or get patched at some point.
