It's really hard to justify $1000 for it when the Switch 2 is $450 (soon $500).
I had a Nintendo Switch 1 and sold it. My wife wanted to play the latest Pokemon release, she did for 2 months, then it sat unused for 3 years in its charging deck.
If you like some titles that Nintendo has to offer, then sure (I never understood the appeal of the Zelda saga for instance).
If you want a portable PC optimized for gaming with a huge library and where you can also do anything else you want, including modding it, 1000$ is still a bargain for what it offers. EDIT: and the library will keep expanding as Proton keeps maturing.
