I was surprised it didn't just auto sort itself out after putting them into the grip..

I thought it was meant to actually, but yeah maybe not.
I almost never use the Joycons myself.

I did pick up Sparks of Hope in the eshop sale with the additional DLC. I wasn’t sure at first if I was keen but I have been enjoying playing this last week. Definitely a bargain at the sale price!
Also playing Mario Wonder with the wife. It’s pretty fun although I think I’m gonna get a second pro controller!
Are there any other good co-op game recommendations?

I haven’t played it on switch 2, but Split Fiction is amazing.
My wife and I also love overcooked!
Split Fiction looks cool but then I’ve just found it takes two as well!

I loved the idea of it takes two after seeing it on the PC so I grabbed it for the Switch. But the visuals on the switch version are a huge step down, and there's no switch 2 update for it.
We got split fiction and that looks much, much, better.
Both are fun if you enjoy coop games, and I went in to it takes two really looking forward to it, but I couldn't finish it in part because of how dull and muddy I found it to look at.
I also wasn't a fan of the story, which combined with the graphics is what killed it for me, but my coop partner really enjoyed it.
Split fiction I thought was fantastic.
I'm pretty keen to pick up a switch 2 for Mariokart world, but obviously want to look at wider options than that. Does Nintendo offer like the equivalent of Xbox game pass / PsPlus where you pay monthly and have access to a catalogue of games, I saw that you can get access to older games from N64/GBA etc, but what about newer games?

I haven't played mine much since getting the Steam Deck at Christmas although its more about "the new toy" than anything else; agree we need some more games!
The Online Service is really just Retro games, it does include Switch 2 upgrades for the two Zelda games but no "modern/new" games like Xbox Live/PS
I normally look at the value of a console as it should last me many years before the next version gets released..
Like my switch one i owned from 2017 till end of 2025
(fair enough updated OLED models did come out in that time and the same will most likely happen with the switch 2)

I've got Mario Tennis Fever and Pokemon Pokopia on pre-order. Both Switch 2 games.
I can imagine tennis being fun in bursts but not a game I’d play consistently. I used to love smash court tennis on the psx.
Played the strikers game on GameCube the other day and that holds up too.
I like games like that as I can just play for 30 minutes just to chill out and then go back to work. Rather than getting addicted and spending hours playing.

Ahhhh Divorce Creation Simulator - great games xD
Honestly play my Switch 2 most days at the moment too, I've got a vast library of Switch 1 titles I'd not got to yet (ignoring all the PS4 titles etc too...lol), partially because the performance limitations for Switch 1 started to get a bit frustrating. Switch 2 generally does a great job of smoothing them out, even if it can't fix the resolution they output at, and playing at a much more fluid, consistent framerate generally makes a massive difference. I might end up having to be a bit more selective on my selection, rather than A-Zing the entire lot, for time if nothing else, but I've got plenty to hold me over until the Switch 2 library proper gets going.
Have you played PlateUp? it's in a similar vein to overcooked but resorts in slightly fewer arguments, don't get me wrong it still gets stressful but there are less instances of "wheres my ******* burgers!!??" or "why are there no clean plates!!" being screamed at/by your better half
