i don't think it's a bad strategy by Nintendo to try to get some Animal Crossing fans to upgrade to Switch 2, but it's not enough for me.
going to need new games exclusive to switch 2 i'm really excited for, and even then, switch 2 + controllers is pretty expensive, so going to need to think about it
I already have a Switch 2 but mainly because of this:
My Switch is literally held together with gaffa tape and won't work unless it's docked and plugged in at all times ... I needed a replacement and upgrading made more sense ...
Anyway, would this [the NH update] make me buy a Switch 2 if I didn't already have one? No. I don't believe in buying a console just for one game, let alone an update ... That's a waste of money in my eyes. I'll most probably get the Switch 2 Edition physical though because I like having full games with all the content in one place ...
On a happy note, my Callie and Marie amiibo arrived in the post today, so I'm sorted for the update items
