Does a refurbished unit still come with a valid game code? How does that work?

These sure do. The original code was either not used by the original customer and is still in the box or a new game code has been added to the box.

You won’t see this kind of deal, again, for a while. If you don’t have a switch 2, yet, and want one, get this one.
Switch 2 prices are going up in Sept.

Are these mostly customer returns/open-box units or previously used consoles? Does it include every original accessory? What does Grade A mean specifically for this listing?

How much “better” is the 2 than the original - is it worth replacing the original for an upcoming almost 11 yr olds birthday who uses theirs a lot (they do have far stricter time limits on the amount of time allowed, if that makes a difference)

It’s newer hardware. It will have the latest games.
Personally, I will wait years for the OLED. So, if you’re coming from switch OLED to switch 2, that’s a slight downgrade, even though 2 has a slightly larger screen.

Probably not worth it. Get your money’s worth out of the original. There isn’t a huge amount of games available purely for the 2, and it’s less likely you actually “own” anything anymore.

Ownership of the Nintendo Switch 2
When you buy a Nintendo Switch 2, you do not receive full ownership of the device. Instead, you are granted a limited, revocable license to use it. This means that Nintendo retains significant control over how the console can be used.
Key Points of the Ownership Rules
-
Limited License: The purchase does not equate to outright ownership. You are allowed to use the console under specific conditions set by Nintendo.
-
Revocation of License: If you violate Nintendo’s rules, your license can be revoked, which may lead to your console being rendered “permanently unusable.”
Actions That May Lead to Revocation
The following actions can result in Nintendo taking action against your console:
- Modding: Altering the hardware or software of the console.
- Tampering: Any unauthorized changes to the system.
- Piracy: Engaging in illegal downloading or distribution of games.
Consequences of Violating the Rules
If you violate the terms of the End User License Agreement (EULA), Nintendo has the right to:
- Disable Online Services: You may lose access to Nintendo’s online features.
- Brick the Console: The device can be made unusable, even offline.
This level of control raises concerns about consumer rights and the nature of ownership in the digital age. Users should be aware of these rules to avoid potential issues with their Nintendo Switch 2.

I mean that’s common with all the consoles.
You get banned if you mod or pirate basically.

I feel like most refurbs have a one year warranty. Should I be worried about 90 days?
Confirmation email not showing up for anyone else? I don’t see the transaction show up on amazon’s transaction page yet either.

The payment authorization is still retrying at this time. It’s waiting on approval from your bank.
Usually my banks sends me to a 2FA portal but it did not this time. I’ve never had issues through amazon but first time woot user.
Please let me know if there’s anything I should do!
We use Amazon Pay. I don’t know how it works. I just see it as pending and not authorized yet.

don’t know why you feel the need to point out the switch 2 specifically here, this is the case for the first switch too. all modern consoles, really. still a good thing to be aware of though.
