Switch 2 Impressions & Launch Haul – First Week Thoughts + Games & Accessories!

After what felt like forever, the Nintendo Switch 2 is finally here—and I was lucky enough to attend a midnight launch with friends and snag a bunch of new games and accessories at release! In this video, I go over my first impressions of the system after spending about a week with it, talk through my launch experience (including a full-blown Mario Kart World LAN party 🎉), and show everything I picked up—both physical and digital.

From performance improvements and quality-of-life changes to standout launch games and accessories, this isn’t a full review—but it is an early look at how the Switch 2 feels to actually live with. Spoiler alert: it’s pretty rad.

💬 Did you pick up a Switch 2 at launch? Got any fun stories, favorite games, or first impressions to share? Let me know in the comments!

👉 And if you’re curious about what games I grabbed through the eShop now that it’s finally fast again, be sure to stick around—I’m working on a separate digital haul video next!
