And what are we supposed to do with our Switch now? I know it’s been out for a while, but my growing resentment for the linear economy is giving me huge console generation cycle fatigue.
Keep using it. You don't need the 2 unless you have a desperate need for a Switch 2 exclusive (or maybe want to run some of the games that the OG Switch couldn't really handle so great).
With my PC-based gaming offerings, I probably won't even be tempted until they announce a Switch 2 OLED or whatever.
For anyone else who was unfamiliar:
Linear economy is a system in which people buy a product, use it, and then throw it away. The term linear refers to the straight progression that a product can follow, with a beginning, a middle and an end. There is no thought along the line regarding recycling or reuse. (per https://www.eib.org/en/stories/linear-economy-recycling#%3A%7E%3Atext=Linear+economy+is+a+system%2Cline+regarding+recycling+or+reuse.)
