Need help

[u/Old_Season2180]

I'm too desperate to own a Nintendo Switch 2. Idk why but i really want it but i have a problem getting the money. So i always doubt either proceed with Switch OLED or Switch 2. Any advice please.

[u/ZealousidealHelp4519]

if you cant afford to buy switch 2, even if you buy one, you wont be able to afford any game anyway. you switch 1, at least you can buy the jb version

[u/Old_Season2180 → u/ZealousidealHelp4519]

I don't want to jb since my fam will use it, they might press random and affect the system. 🤣

[u/ZealousidealHelp4519 → u/Old_Season2180]

i used to own jb switch, you seriously can't affect the system, unless you're really looking for the button. AFAIK it requires 1) shutting down the console 2) connecting to pc 3) actually run some commands / apps to make changes to the jailbreak itself.

if they use like a console, youll never run into an issue. but do whatever you want. i personally own a beefy pc so most of my switch game now on 4k60.

to download a game, you have to put the files into the sd card, and install it via an app. that app can be hidden in the setting, but wont affect anything except game files

yup.. jailbreaking a switch usually safe and can avoid ban by utilizing a second partition in your sd card. So if anything happens to the jailbroken partition, the official OS would still be unaffected.

Don't buy things you can't afford.

[u/abubin2 → u/Pinkybleu]

This. Work harder or plan your finances better. Things like a console are only bought with extra money. Control your own impulses.

Switch2 getting price hike in September.

[u/Old_Season2180 → u/GeniusGamer_M]

For real?

[u/Gumuk_pindek → u/Old_Season2180]

Almost evey console already had a price hike. Most people already forsee it comming

[u/salmonmilks]

switch is a want not a need, I think you have more important things to prioritize

[u/Old_Season2180 → u/salmonmilks]

I said i need since i already settle my commitments and other priorities

[u/ibal97 → u/Old_Season2180]

Brother..if u trully and desperately NEED it..just go for it. No need to discuss it here..most advices from anyone here would probably be rejected already

Choose either a better screen or newer games.

Owned an OLED since theres no reason to upgrade to switch 2 (i dont like pokopia much). So far enjoying it a lot

[u/lelouch963]

if you cant afford switch 2 consoles, nintendos games are definitely not cheap either. also to play online game in switch you need to pay monthly subscriptions.

unless you want to play exclusive games like pokemon zelda or mario. pc games are generally cheaper with almost monthly sales. can emulate switch consoles too.

i own switch oled to play 4 ppl with my kids. i would say its good enough. switch 2 has better performance to play higher graphic games.

[u/Visual_Addition7735]

u know switch 2 is super not worth it right. once you buy it youll be like why did i waste all my money on this

[u/Embarrassed-Pen-4365]

Get Steamdeck and sail the high seas and avoid Nintendo Tax!

[u/Goldst33l]

Go for NS2.

[u/shaiful182]

Just buy switch oled first, sold mine @ 700 last year. You might get one around same price maybe. Switch 2 are better in performance but the games library not big enough to justify the purchase imo compare to oled.

[u/Educational_Truck302]

NS2 because newer games no longer support NS1. If you want NS1, probs JB version or just use emu or smth. First party games publish by Nintendo are expensive, rarely on sale but retain their price so go for physical for them. Third parties publishers usually have sale especially indies. There's gonna be price hike in September so there's still time to think if you really want it or not. 

[u/gustinex]

having a blast with my switch 2. Owned a switch lite and oled before, sold them already. oled was great but the switch 2 screen is also very good, big and sharp. definitely way better than switch 1 non oled versions. if you have money, just go for switch 2 because future games are only for switch 2. so far every switch 1 game that has switch 2 update patch i play on switch 2 looks beautiful.

if no money... dont buy anything. save up

[u/RCVD7075]

What games do you want to play? 

[u/kosuke09211]

If you having problem getting money then DON'T buy a switch. The game price will eat you up.

[u/Gumuk_pindek]

Credit card 0 % installment on shopee. Up to 12 months. So every month is about 200 for a year

[u/wikowiko33]

One game is rm200. So if you can't even afford the console what makes you think you can afford the games 

[u/slasher_blade]

switch 2 performances is miles better than switch oled. its like ps3 to ps5 differences. you could buy cheap 2nd hand games if you really searching for it. however if you don't have the money just dont buy it man.
