Switch 2 vs. Switch: Surprising Boot Speed Difference Revealed

Nintendo Switch 2 vs. Original Switch: A Quick Boot-Up Comparison In a recent short video posted online, YouTuber More 1980sGamer conducted a side-by-side comparison of the boot-up speeds between the original Nintendo Switch and the newly released Switch 2. The test, filmed in the US, involved simultaneously powering on both consoles. The results showed a minor, yet noticeable, difference in favor of the Switch 2. "What I really wanted to know is if the Switch 2 boots up faster than the regular Switch," More 1980sGamer explained in the video. The visual demonstration clearly showed the Switch 2 launching its home screen a second or so faster than the original model. While the difference may seem insignificant to some, the video highlights even small performance improvements that Nintendo has made with the newest iteration of their popular handheld console. This minor speed increase could contribute to an overall more fluid user experience, especially for frequent users.
