What is the Switch OLED?
The Switch OLED, released in 2021, is sort of the top model of Nintendo’s console. Its design and performance are exactly the same as the classic Switch, apart from its new screen which takes advantage of OLED technology. Nintendo still takes advantage of this update to refine the finishes and gives the shell of its console a less smooth plastic, more pleasant to hold, as well as better integrated buttons. The console also has an Ethernet port, and doubles its storage capacity.
The screen also gains in size and goes from 6.2 inches to 7 inches. OLED technology offers a brighter image, in order to gain sharpness and contrast. Visibility and immersion are thus enhanced. OLED does justice to the graphics of most games. Less nomadic than a Switch Lite, but more accomplished than a classic Switch, this OLED model is perfect for hybrid use, both in docked mode and in portable mode. You will be able to help your friends the Korogus in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomboth on your TV and in transport.
Are these models worth it at this price?
If you’re not a fan of Splatoon or of Pokemon, it’s up to you to see if the discount on these models takes precedence over the design. However, this is still a good opportunity to get an OLED Switch. If you’re a fan of both games and don’t have a Switch yet, then editions are for you.
The Nintendo Switch OLED Pokemon highlights the Pokémon Miraidon and Koraidon, the main creatures of the games Scarlet And Purple. Console and Joy Con approach shades in the colors of the game and beautiful patterns affixed. Pokémon lovers will be delighted by the design, which is both sober and sufficiently geeky. The OLED Switch Splatoon 3 responds to the same philosophy, namely a clean and colorful look. Splatoon requires, the Joy Con and the dock have spots of paint and colors that go back to the game. On the dock and the back of the console, you will find patterns and logos taken directly from the levels of Splatoon. These two models will appeal to fans of the games, but also have the knack of not overdoing it to suit a wider audience.
