Can I hold up to buy a Switch until next one?

[ethomaz]

I want to buy the next one but my little boy keep asking me one now

While that…

 

[anonpuffs]

what's he want it for

Yes buy it, it will only go up in value in the future. Even the Wii U sells for $800 now on Ebay. The 3DS has gone up in value.

albeit because the Switch can play games from those machines.

the switch 2 will probably be backwards compatible so no rush, but the games are still expensive after years.

what's he want it for

He likes all Mario games from 2D to 3D.
But he likes others games… for example he loved Astroboy, Knack, Sackboy, etc.
But eventually he moved on from these games… today he is play LEGO Harry Potter.

He ask for a Switch because it is portable.. he doesn’t know PlayStation doesn’t have Mario games.

He asked sometimes and I explained but I don’t know if he understood
In his mind it is suppose to play Mario games on my PS5.

Super Mario Wonder should make him happy for months I guess… Mario Kart is another one… he likes Donkey Kong character too.

See if he likes games like tunic for now

There are lots of games that aren't nintendo yet are great. When switch 2 comes out you can probably find a used switch for cheap

Well when Switch 2 come out it is better to buy it instead Switch used imo.

I don’t like used things too

I just think it is a waste to buy a Switch right now… I should had brought one years ago.

It you add my kid it should be the most played device here at home.
Myself won’t play that much I guess because the games lacks trophies… I mean even if Nintendo had another type of achievements… I do like to collect trophies… that is the reason I did not brought one years ago (PS trophies support).

How much do they cost versus how much do you want to spend?

And remember, time moves differently for a kid-- you're only 9 once.

You must have been looking at a special one, I just checked ebay and there's a buy it now for only 130.

I just got the OLED after thinking my original model was damaged, now I have two. I don’t believe in waiting for the next model of a thing without a formal announcement.
