Another tip for the micro SD cards - don't waste money on faster cards. The Switch doesn't support those high-end read/write speeds. Those speeds are meant for supporting 4K devices. For example, the $250-$300 SanDisk Extreme Pro 1 TB will function the same as a $150 SanDisk Ultra 1 TB in a Switch.
Nintendo Switch has an official 516 GB one. That’s the highest officially from Nintendo. So that’ll work. Make sure it’s licensed through Nintendo though.
I feel like dark theme could increase noticeable burn in on OLED models. My pixel4a has it where the white text for time, signal and battery has been projected onto a black background permanently.
Also a tip, buying physical copies of games save you money AND space. On the eshop games go for the original release price while in stores or online you can find physical copies of games for half of the original price. The only disadvantages is having to wait to get the game until you reach the store or the it gets shipped from online (which is only 1-5 days usually) and switching out the games from the port everytime you wanna play anything else. Personally, I regret buying games from the eshop so i learned my lesson.
The opposite is obviously also true. There are constantly sales going on in the eShop and especially indie games and older games (unless they're first-party) tend to get discounted way more on there than physically. In fact, for older games the physical price often actually goes UP in price after a while due to limited availability. So if you don't care about owning games either physically or digitally, always check both media.
You have made some solid points however I believe it comes down to preference. When you buy a digital copy, it is tied to your account, you can’t break or lose that digital copy, as you would a physical. Even if you lose everything in a fire, all you gotta do is load your account on your new switch and redownload all your games. I don’t mind paying a premium for that. Also when it comes to space you are only saving digital storage when you buy digital games but when you buy physical games now you need a place to store that game case and as your library increases you will lose physical space in your home. I rather buy a 100 dollar 512GB microSD and not have to carry all that junk around. So like I said, preference.
i actually found holding the switch as intended no accessories or nothing just the normal joycons it was actually really comfotable, even though i have slightly large hands it still felt nice to hold.
For the SD cards, I’d recommend waiting for them to go on sale. I got one for 256 GB at Best Buy on Black Friday for $14 one year! I try to get them every year now.
You can get 2-3 hours more on your Switch in table top by using the Pro controller or another controller that is not connected to the Switch. It will start using the joycons as batteries.
I use my switch like 98%+ of the time in hand held mode. Yes! Some kind of grip is a very big plus and aids in comfort. I use a mumba case that also fits in my case that I keep my switch in so I don’t need to keep taking it off unless I dock it. Yes! Some kind of micro sd card is a must. I’d also recommend a 256gb minimum and yes the name brand sandisk red or green cards are very cheap (even better prices on sale) and work just fine speed wise and comparable to the game cart speeds. You may not think you need one or will fill it up but you eventually will. Best to get a card for digital games and leave the internal memory to just the game saves as that is the only place it will put save data. Edit: oh ya and the trick to turn off wi-fi (airplane mode) while in hand held mode to save battery is one I’ve used too and does work. As does lowering the screen brightness too as that is a major battery killer. Manually adjust it as needed in hand held mode. Don’t leave it in auto brightness adjusting.
2nd that on the Mumba case especially the new dockable one so I don’t have to remove it every time I want to play in docked mode. Love the feel/grip of it and it protects the Switch well.
I highly recommend the satisfye grip and hori split pads. I can’t play switch without em now. I never even thought of the airplane mode too, but I only play in handheld so that should help a bit.
The MTU size "hack" is a good one, as long as you know exactly the MTU size, which your network is operating on. To get it not that technical: If you're having a carrier which provides you Internet via IPv6: Do not change the MTU to a size, which IPv6 cannot handle anymore (1500 as Framesize can be to large). In bad cases, your provider is dropping your packets leaving in connection loss. So, only modify the MTU size, as long as you know, what you're doing there.
I've heard many people talk about this, but I don't really understand what can happen if the mtu I set on the switch exceeds the limit of my connection. In the worst case scenario, wouldn't it be enough to set the mtu back to 1400 and everything would be resolved?
If you just want ethernet on your existing dock, you can buy a USB Ethernet adapter instead of buying a whole new dock. That's what I did when I first got my Switch, and it works pretty great. That said, it might be beneficial to have an extra dock incase you have multiple rooms to play in, or want one you can take to a friend's house.
I think putting your switch in Dark mode makes it look better. The all white background is bright and doesn’t look as visually pleasing as the dark mode IMO
RGT 'forgot' to mention that if you have an older Switch and have no intention of buying the new Switch dock, you can buy an inexpensive USB-Ethernet adaptor to use use with your existing 'old' dock that allows you connect your ethernet internet cable, thus bypassing the wi-fi, and getting better internet connectivity..... Happy New Year Shawn, and all the RGT followers! 🙂
I just recently got my first LG oled TV and it has completely changed breath of the wild and all the rest of the games, but I didn’t think such a washed out game would be completely transformed. My other advice would be to spend $5 for the ethernet adapter like i did, instead of a new dock. My other advice would be to use your best gaming Bluetooth headphones for the best enhanced audio experience. My other advice would be to get the 1tb microsd card. 245gb or whatever gamestop carries at the largest isnt enough and is now in my cellphone
Hi, I'm recently getting a new 4k tv from a 1080p tv. It's a qled so not as good as an Oled but still pretty similar. What do you mean by it 'transformed' the games? Thanks
If battery life becomes an issue I'd recommend getting an inexpensive power bank to charge the Switch when you can't plug it in. You can get some pretty decent ones for $20-$40 and they can charge cell phones too.
Thank you so much. I knew I was forgetting something. The only thing I forgot was the MTU setting on my kids device. And I purchased a ton of games digitally recently and they were taking so much longer than my device. You are the man
You missed a very important fact about the fixture s1 mount. It doesn't work with the OLED switch. Definitely agree it's one my favorite accessory's for the switch but they need to make a OLED version.
Big one, when you insert a game cart for the first time make sure to collect the "My Nintendo Rewards" for the game. Each gold coin is 1 cent off an e-shop game, I have over 1500 in my account right now.
Thanks for the tip. Just figured it out and went through the games I have. Since I just got the Switch, and most of my games are older, I couldn't get the points
None of those grips work with the Oled…just a heads up. There is a new oled satisfye that just dropped. Still waiting on the other new models. Been playing my oled bare naked and it’s brutal.
Thanks for the video! My OLED model comes in today. New owner here. I have never owned a switch before. Definitely looking at all these options. Very informative. There are still some noobs like me out there. Hahaha
The MTU tweak suggestion is like saying Size 10 shoes are better than size 9. It all depends on the size your feet. And in this case it depends on your internet connection. Sometimes changing the MTU to higher might even hamper the download speeds. For me for example changing MTU to 1500 actually doubles my download times. The internet is filled with guides on how to check the optimal MTU for the connection you are using.
My wife got me mine in December, just ordered a ergo grip. After like 5 mins of playing now my hands feel like they are going to sleep. Looking forward to that helping
Great content, just got my hands on a Switch OLED, joined the Nintendo family! You sir got yourself a new sub, the trick with faster downloads is exactly what I needed!
btw sd cards have nothing to do with san disk. They just happen to be a manufacture of sd cards. SD stands for secure digital. So you don’t need to buy San Disk. Brands to buy from include San Disk, Samsung (would be my preferred choice, Lexar (they really are popular in the camera and filming scene) But you will see a bunch of other brands that are essentially buying Samsung NAND flash putting it on an SD Card and slapping their brand on it. As long as you compare price and the 512gb card you are buying isn’t 20 dollars while the rest are 50-100, you probably are getting the real thing. Also there are utilities you can download and run on your computer that will fill up the sd card and check to make sure it keeps righting data as the fake SD cards are modified to report higher capacities to the host device. So a 32gb might report 1TB but any data after 32GB just starts to overwrite the data that was written at the beginning. The utility will make sure it keeps writing data and doesnt overwrite. Great way to make sure you actually got a legit card that can hold the amount of storage it says and not overwrite your games.
About the SD cards, don't bother getting anything less than 256gb really, you'll likely have to get a bigger one eventually unless you're a super casual player
@@sentientcardboarddumpster7900 no wonder you are watching rgt lmao fits perfect. guy is talking about nintendo when they are just gonna flag his videos cause of all the misinformation
quick archive games you already finished playing to delete game data but not the saved data to free up some memory space in your switch....but be cautious because you will need to redownload the game data if you wish to play again the archive game
Man, I saw the Hori Split Pad at Mega Media for cheap...I wish I would of picked it up! But my trick is to *KEEP BUYING GAMES* . This past week, I bought: - Darksiders Genesis - Darksiders 3 - Destroy All Humans - Kingdoms of Amular - Maneater - MX vs. ATV: All Out - Ori and the Will of the Wisps - WRC 9 An eclectic mix of Racing, Hack 'n Slash, Platforming, and Open World.
yeah i cannot play with my joycons attached to the switch, even if I'm just in my room chilling. weird cause I'm used to the weight of the wii u, that's how I learned to use joysticks and that's how I played botw, but I just use the little holder that turns them into a controller every time, whether my switch is docked or not
Wired is for the latency because wirelss or wired speeds haven't been a problem for the average person. it's the lag that could appear with wireless for some that could cause problems.
I just got the OLED version yesterday and one of the first things I did was to test internet speeds both on wireless and wired. I saw some videos that talk about how Nintendo has screwed up the UPLOAD speed on the OLED, but download is excellent and fast then non OLED models. Well, sure 'nuff! The download is very close to the max, but upload was bouncing between 7 and 8.7 Mbps, just like in the videos. While the non OLED models have uploads almost the same as downloads (40Mbps, 50Mps, 30Mbps). Of course, with a slow upload speed, when playing online, that's going to cause lag (mostly for others in the game). I sure hope that Nintendo addresses and fixes this with an update. Changing MTU to 1500 doesn't make any diff on that upload speed. Sadly.
@@snow7141 lol no dude, that's not how that works. If your packet is larger than the MTU on the network and PMTU isn't enabled you'll create a group load of retransmissions because the payload gets split, FRAGMENTED, into many smaller payloads.
This is been really helpful. I’m in a lot of this stuff I kind of knew because I did watch a lot of videos shortly after I got my switch and before I got my switch OLED I recently got stung with a fake Sandisk SD card which was very sluggish and I kept on getting corrupt data. Whenever I was downloaded a game or installing a cartridge onto my switch. I’ve got it for cheap on eBay so that was already a red flag and it looked so convincing. It looked like the real deal and they got tied off seeing the craft and Messages and I bought other official ones off of Amazon and I’ve had no issues ever since and they’re pretty fast too, so I don’t mind buying the official Nintendo branded SD cards because they are fast enough anyway great video, even though I know this is literally a year old and I’ve had my switch OLED edition since October and I’m very much enjoying my switch which has been the most fun. I’ve had in a long time in games.
Brand new switch OLED owner. Wish I had known about fixture before ordering a satisfye grip, but I don't play anything too intensive in handheld mode. So it should be fine for now at least.
@@mikeuk666 you buy a 512 IF you have the money. If you're an adult, no problem, but if you're a kid and you're funds are limited, I say $35 for a 128GB card is reasonable. 512 is overkill.
I just got my switch OLED today with my skull and Co grip and it feels so good in hand I like the split pad pro I just feel like me personally it makes the system super wide and I feel like the old it is already a little bit bigger than the regular switch and I've used the dobie grip with my regular switch to me the perfect grip for handheld mode is the skull & Co I've used it for my regular switch and I've used the one for the OLED and they both feel great in hand
I got a Switch myself. My sister did pitch in a bit. My Joy-cons are worn out and are drifting. I use a different controller and while it is better and has a Zelda design it sucks that it's wired. It was cheaper than a pro controller. Why do those cost so much? I used to use a third party controller but one of the buttons is broken. I also use tape to cover up the light up part since it's too bright. It's not really an issue if the game doesn't use every button but some games use all of them. I don't like using the Switch in handheld mode. Really you can change the download speed?
PEOPLE PLEASE DONT CHANGE YOUR SWITCH ONLINE SETTINGS TO 1500 IF YOU PLAY ONLINE GAMES LIKE FORTNITE . THE LAG IT CREATES IS GAME BRAKING !!!!!!!! SHAME ON YOU RGT FOR NOT WARING PPL ABOUT THIS..
I just got my Nintendo switch last week so good lookin out on the tips much appreciated. I'll be sure to subscribe so I can stay updated on what's new and for more tips. Have a great day. Peace
You might know all these, but you might not! Enjoy and be sure to share your tips and tricks in the comments!
50/50 chance you don't know these tips

I recommend changing to Dark theme, easier on the eyes and saves a bit of battery.
I almost forget that it even has a light theme because I changed it to dark when I first got my original Switch in 2017 and never looked back.
@@HarmonicWave how do you change it?
@@rhogan4246 go to settings, themes and then you can change your theme from black to white, respectfully

They are just so hard to find man GameStop always sold out of the Nintendo brand I need a adaptor badly
@@litodat233 The one that wallmart sell the onn brand is licensed and works well.

you’re gonna love ori
just ordered a Nintendo Switch Lite. Thanks for the airplane mode tip
I just bought Nintendo switch a month ago and this video of yours really helped me a lot. Thank you so much sir😇
yeah i cannot play with my joycons attached to the switch, even if I'm just in my room chilling. weird cause I'm used to the weight of the wii u, that's how I learned to use joysticks and that's how I played botw, but I just use the little holder that turns them into a controller every time, whether my switch is docked or not
My favourite feature of the OLED switch is the enhanced green vividness on Greys that they refuse to fix
Happy 2022 y'all!!! Thanks for the tips especially the internet one as man the download speeds on eshop suck ;)
Does changing the MTU to 1500 on the XBOX series X or the PS5 results to a faster download time as well 🤔⁉️
Try it and let us know!!
Get Hori Split pads and throw the joycons in the trash
Fixture S1 ftw 👍
Wired is for the latency because wirelss or wired speeds haven't been a problem for the average person. it's the lag that could appear with wireless for some that could cause problems.
Thanks for the tip on MTU! And I may have to look into the Fixture device as well!
Download your games while docked and connected to your Ethernet cable.
I just got the OLED version yesterday and one of the first things I did was to test internet speeds both on wireless and wired.
I saw some videos that talk about how Nintendo has screwed up the UPLOAD speed on the OLED, but download is excellent and fast then non OLED models.
Well, sure 'nuff!
The download is very close to the max, but upload was bouncing between 7 and 8.7 Mbps, just like in the videos.
While the non OLED models have uploads almost the same as downloads (40Mbps, 50Mps, 30Mbps).
Of course, with a slow upload speed, when playing online, that's going to cause lag (mostly for others in the game).
I sure hope that Nintendo addresses and fixes this with an update.
Changing MTU to 1500 doesn't make any diff on that upload speed. Sadly.
Lmao bro, do not increase your MTU size. That's how fragmentation happens and you'll cause a bunch of retransmission
only if u have bad internet
@@snow7141 lol no dude, that's not how that works. If your packet is larger than the MTU on the network and PMTU isn't enabled you'll create a group load of retransmissions because the payload gets split, FRAGMENTED, into many smaller payloads.
Thank you for this!! I was super confused but this helped a ton!
Dock updates would probably be based on charging optimization
Thanks I owned a Nintendo switch and this helped me
Just buy a LAN adapter to run a direct internet feed to your old dock. $10 way cheaper than a new dock.
If you have a switch oled make sure the console doesn't have green tint issue because almost all switch oled has this issue.
Thank you sir. For your information just bought a oled switch.
Happy Friday 😎🤙
Buy a Satisfye grip 👌👍
Get a big micro SD card
Screen protector
Play BOTW
Or Pokémon let’s goooo
Or instead of a grip, get the Hori Split Pad or Binbok Joycons for a comfortable drift free experience 👍
Fixture S1 then you don't need rubbish joycons
The fixture is great but not compatible with the new oled switch as it's 2mm longer than the og 😑
This is been really helpful. I’m in a lot of this stuff I kind of knew because I did watch a lot of videos shortly after I got my switch and before I got my switch OLED I recently got stung with a fake Sandisk SD card which was very sluggish and I kept on getting corrupt data. Whenever I was downloaded a game or installing a cartridge onto my switch. I’ve got it for cheap on eBay so that was already a red flag and it looked so convincing. It looked like the real deal and they got tied off seeing the craft and Messages and I bought other official ones off of Amazon and I’ve had no issues ever since and they’re pretty fast too, so I don’t mind buying the official Nintendo branded SD cards because they are fast enough anyway great video, even though I know this is literally a year old and I’ve had my switch OLED edition since October and I’m very much enjoying my switch which has been the most fun. I’ve had in a long time in games.
This is why he's a Nintendo UA-camr
Satisfye my fave but they been on trash w/ the OLED grip
Brand new switch OLED owner. Wish I had known about fixture before ordering a satisfye grip, but I don't play anything too intensive in handheld mode. So it should be fine for now at least.
I use mine hand held mode I'm loving it I have split pad pro
Just bought the oled, first Nintendo system!
theres a HDMI cable for around 100 bucks, that can upscale the picture. closest we get to 4k
As somebody who has got a OLED for Christmas, this is helpful. (Not trying to flex, sorry though.)
Damn, had my switches for almost three years and didn't know all of that. Good look!
5:14 I recommend a Class 10 128 GB SD card ....minimum . I use a 256 GB card and it's almost full.
512gb minimum
@@mikeuk666 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ no
@@mikeuk666 you buy a 512 IF you have the money. If you're an adult, no problem, but if you're a kid and you're funds are limited, I say $35 for a 128GB card is reasonable. 512 is overkill.
@@heavyhittersirl especially since kids won't be buying 20 games a week off the eShop, so a smaller SD card will do them just fine
I love the binbok joycons and the PDP fight pad pro GameCube controllers
I always enjoy these types of videos.
I just got my switch OLED today with my skull and Co grip and it feels so good in hand I like the split pad pro I just feel like me personally it makes the system super wide and I feel like the old it is already a little bit bigger than the regular switch and I've used the dobie grip with my regular switch to me the perfect grip for handheld mode is the skull & Co I've used it for my regular switch and I've used the one for the OLED and they both feel great in hand
I got a Switch myself. My sister did pitch in a bit. My Joy-cons are worn out and are drifting. I use a different controller and while it is better and has a Zelda design it sucks that it's wired. It was cheaper than a pro controller. Why do those cost so much?
I used to use a third party controller but one of the buttons is broken. I also use tape to cover up the light up part since it's too bright. It's not really an issue if the game doesn't use every button but some games use all of them. I don't like using the Switch in handheld mode.
Really you can change the download speed?
PEOPLE PLEASE DONT CHANGE YOUR SWITCH ONLINE SETTINGS TO 1500 IF YOU PLAY ONLINE GAMES LIKE FORTNITE . THE LAG IT CREATES IS GAME BRAKING !!!!!!!! SHAME ON YOU RGT FOR NOT WARING PPL ABOUT THIS..
I just got my Nintendo switch last week so good lookin out on the tips much appreciated. I'll be sure to subscribe so I can stay updated on what's new and for more tips. Have a great day. Peace
Thanks for all the content man. Keep up the good work and Happy New Years!!!!
