Pros

The nintendo switch oled pokémon scarlet and violet edition is a special edition gaming system that showcases unique illustrations of the legendary pokémon. The console has a scarlet/violet stylized dock and switch. The screen on the console is a powe...  Read More

The faceplate on the dock is a bit flimsy and cheap-feeling, but i am going to assume that is standard for the oled switch. If you’re like me and don’t always pay attention just be mindful that you maybe be getting a bundle with a charger intended for...  Read More



Cons

The box sent is in english. The tag on the machine implies that the machine is a japanese version. Upon opening, i immediately saw chinese characters and found out that the item that i received was a hongkong version. They are not region locked.

Do not purchase, scummy. At all. It's like the box is super old as the corners are literally worn to see through.

I tried troubleshooting every possible method from unplugging my router to factory resetting the switch and it still would not ...  Read More


Even do the switch is basically universal and non-region lock.

Price


I didn’t realize it time but not only can you buy games for but you can download games where did alexis go ahead and add the sc...  Read More


If i remember correctly, this cost the same as a standard oled version anyway.

Shipping


So i contacted nintendo to find out this seller shipped me a japanese model.


It arrived fast and in good condition

Packaging/appearance


” it came in amazing condition, original packaging and not even any cosmetic blemishes.


This product is awesome, with one catch, it’s extremely misleading packaging lead me to believe that it had the games with it.


The product box was damaged, which upset me because i wanted to keep the box.


No games came with it and so i had fork another 120$ for the games, which seems kinda unfair the way that it’s packaging is presented.

Competitiveness


It's a beautiful subtly when compared to the other pokémon switches, and the white joy-con straps are a nice touch to improve them as well.


The screen is so much better then it's predecessor.


The oled model is much better than the classic one.

    Though that depends entirely on what youre playing too

    The oled model also is way better with battery consumption if you use the settings catered towards the color depth

    As for tv play you wont notice much if any difference at all

    Overall id say it was worth the upgrade


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The bright pure white makes it pop especially


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I do wish the backplate of the dock was attached the way that the base dock is though as the way it pops off seems a bit cheap and causes me to worry it may get lost during travel some day


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The back of the switch is a hodgepodge of different colored icons from the game meant to imitate stickers while the front of the joycons look like proper branding from the ingame schools


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Keeping on artwork im especially disappointed that the grip which combines joycons into one controller doesnt have any new artwork on it
