We got a Switch 2 on launch day, had it pre-ordered.  Got the new Mario Kart World game as well (physical) and also got the upgrades for Breath of the Wild & Tears of the Kingdom.

Played the new Mario Kart for a bit for a few days, and it's neat, but really have been spending a lot of my time with the new system re-playing Breath of the Wild.  That game we beautiful before, but the 4K upgrade really makes it shine.  On the original switch you'd sometimes have some jitter/slow down in certain scenarios, especially when you're in the Lost Woods.  With the Switch 2 version everything is buttery smooth.

Even some of the textures on the original game were a little pixalated/dithered but were upgraded/corrected in this version.  It's nice to see new life breathed into a 7 year old game, well worth the $15 CAD upgrade price.

.... When in doubt, predict that the trend will continue
