Get a Steam Deck, or any of the other PC handhelds out there.

I accidentally purchased the OLED switch right before getting my steam deck. I never touch the thing.

Same. I got a Switch so my partner and I could play games with their sister. It collects dust as it turns out my partner has no interest in learning to play games and I can play modded Switch games with better graphics on my PC.

Yeah, that's how my divorce started too.

Same situation for me. Buying a switch was a big regret after getting a Steam deck.

The only thing my switch is good for is playing the Nintendo archive games for N64 or Game Boy or whatever

all the new games I've tried suck, and that's a tough pill at the price. to be fair, I haven't tried that many

Emulation on a pc is so so so easy. You could get a handheld and have access to everything made for 40 years with practically the snap of a finger.
