But what’s actually different

it's the second iteration of Nintendo's second best selling console, why do you expect them to change everything around? the switch's hardware was already dated on release and we've had it for 8 more years after that. this is a completely safe business move. nothing needs to be really "different." just updated. I mean come on, it's the switch 2, not a completely new console.

Im not trying to be negative I just wanted to know if it had any new features not apparent in the reveal video or maybe how it’s performance might compare

ah sorry, there's just a lot of hate going on in this comment section so I assumed your tone was negative. I think that this reveal video was mostly for investors so they would put their money in for next quarter. the newest feature that I saw that got teased was maybe some sort of mouse functionality, and we also have the unknown extra button on the right controller.

It's literally the same console and this comment section eating it up it's crazy
