A:AnswerI checked the website every day and I luckily was able to get one last month. the product is extremely popular and they only come in small stocks. So when there are more switches there will only likely be one or two available ( a single-digit number for sure).
A:AnswerI’ve been trying to get one for my grandma so we can interact everyday.. it’s getting disheartening trying to get it, I’ve stayed up for two days now.. I’m sure the need to have one will die down soon tho
A:AnswerI know! Everyone is seeking these devices like crazy lately and all I know is Nintendo said "we apologize for the inconvenience" and that there are plans to send more but no one knows when!
A:AnswerIt doesn’t use disk like the WiiU, it uses small game cartridges. WiiU games will not work unless you can find a digital download for the Switch.
A:AnswerIt comes with 2 joycon controllers. Some games you can use them separately for two player operation and some games require you you use them together on the joy con grip that they both connect to for one player operation - for these games you would have to get a second set of joycon controllers and joycon grip for two players.
A:AnswerYes for non-digital purchases.
If you have a cartridge game it will always work with or without internet access.
If you buy games digitally on the Nintendo Online Store you will have to check in to an online network once every 7 days to verify you purchased the license to that software you want to play.
A:AnswerSo the bundled version is the Switch version 1 while this one is version 2.
So let's discuss the key differences between the two.
Screen:
V2 has a brighter screen with better warm colors. Resolution is the same on both. 720p when in handheld mode while 1080p while docked.
Battery Life:
V1: 2.5 hours to 6.5 hours
V2: 4.5 hours to 9 hours. (Upgrade is due to a better processor which the device doesn't get as hot either)
I hope this helps!
A:AnswerNo Fortnite is actually a free game. Anything you "buy" of fortnite is essentially in game costumes and dances the character does in the game. The bundles are basically costume packs and in-game money to buy more.
A:AnswerYes, you need the Nintendo Switch Online subscription ($20/year). That currently (Nov2019) gives you access to play a slew of old Nintendo and Super Nintendo games, included with that subscription.
A:AnswerThe switch itself comes with the console, two joycon controllers, two attachments to make the joycons useful separate from the controller, an HDMI cord, a stand to connect the console to the TV, a handheld controller to use the two smaller controllers as one bigger one, and a charger that connects to the stand or the console itself. I would suggest getting a screen protector, a case (either one to hold your console and charger, or one to also hold your stand), and possibly some extra controllers if you would like to play 4-player games, since the switch only allows you to play 1-2 player games. Then of course, buy all the games you'd like!
A:AnswerI am not sure about your location but perhaps another store can ship it to your location to pick up. I was lucky and walked in even though none were on the shelves I was able to ask the store clerk and they got mine from the back.
