Performance won't differ between the new EU model and the one you've already come to know.

    If I ever do buy one, you can bet I’ll be specifically searching for one of those Euro-spec ones with replaceable batteries.

      If you do, you may also need to get EU versions of the games… I don’t know if they’re still region locking them but at the very least used to be a common practice

        Switch 1 isn’t region locked (when it comes to physical games), don’t know about Switch 2. I suppose they could always patch that on via an OTA update…

          Switch 2 is region-free, except for the cheaper Japan-only model.

            That makes sense, to Nintendo at least

        I’m sure you could hack the switch 2. I hacked my switch and get all my games for free

          There are no hacks available for Switch 2 so far.

          If I have to mod the product in order to make the product viable I’m just not going to bother.
