Reuse accessories, subscribe, and preserve battery to save

The Nintendo Switch 2's $449 price tag necessitates smart spending, prompting users to seek cost-effective strategies for accessories and game access. To save money, consider reusing existing controllers from the original Switch and subscribing to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack for access to classic games and exclusive titles like "Breath of the Wild" and "Tears of the Kingdom." Avoid immediate purchases of expensive microSD cards and the official camera. Other tips include using a webcam instead of the official camera and enabling the battery charging cap to preserve battery life. These strategies help maximize value and minimize expenses for the new console.
