I just sold my Switch OLED – so I can tell you not to make this huge mistake

Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch OLED.

We're now a couple of weeks into the era of the Nintendo Switch 2, which should last for years to come and ensure that Nintendo's domination of the family console market doesn't waver. That also means that it's now the twilight of the original Switch, and its OLED upgrade – they're still fabulous consoles, but they're well and truly obsolete by comparison with the Switch 2.

If you're buying a Switch 2 soon, or you already have one in your hands, then you might be thinking along the same lines as me – selling your Switch OLED or original Switch could be a great way to subsidise what is quite an expensive purchase. You're not wrong, either – while there are many people who prefer to store old consoles for posterity, that requires the luxury of storage space and indeed cash.
