Watch This Guy Smash His Brand-New Switch 2 With A Hammer

The Switch 2 is out today, and immediately someone has smashed it with a hammer.

As you can see in the video, the Switch 2 survives multiple five-foot drops with no issues, at least in this specific test environment. The video also has the host slashing the Switch 2's screen with a box cutter trying to snap off the Joy-Cons improperly, and attempting to apply force to break the kickstand.Finally, the host drops a hammer on the screen and then smashes it with a lot more force.
