Received confirmation from Currys that I can collect the Switch 2 from 9am on launch day 😁

Leaving this here.

Yeah, it definitely does start slow – not quite as slow as I thought S1 did, mind you, but I do feel like S2 earns it more somewhat as it needs to check in with a number of characters across a number of settings.  You might already be aware of this, but in case you aren't, S2 is structured a bit differently to S1 in that there are four clear cut three-episode arcs. I think that goes some way to explaining why E1 and E2 might've felt like filler if you didn't also watch them with E3, as that episode concluded the arc and the other two episodes were building up to E3, as well catching you up on where everyone is now vs S1. Like with S1, I do think the first arc, while slower, is methodically laying things out and catching you up by design, so that the rest of the season can just go for it; I'll admit that it's a shame that they felt the need to set the season up in a similarly slow way, but at the same time, having seen the rest, it's totally worth it.  As for feeling like he's in the same position... Glad to hear you've started it, and worry not, I think the first arc is by far the weakest of the season - not in that it's bad, necessarily, but more that everything else ebbs and flows at the higher bands of quality that I don't think that first arc managed to reach.  Looking forward to hearing/reading more of your thoughts as you get through it! 

If you do the online transfer it wipes everything on the original machine so if you plan on using both it's best to do it the usual way

I'm just going to move my Switch into the bedroom and use it on that TV if i want to use it for downloaded games and stuff. Don't want to fill it with rubbish i've bought off the eshop on day one. Just want to download the update, grab Mario Kart World off the eShop and get going with that. I might redownload a few spaciffic retail games off the eshop later.
