    A great system to have if you are looking to play games on the go or not wanting to connect to a tv to play. You can play lots of old school NES, SNES games and current gen games as well. You cant go wrong with this system.

    Look, seeing this finally in stock after three months was a godsend. I was starting to see prices going for at least $400-500 for one. So, when I found this in stock in best buy, I just threw money at them. It arrived on time and I was very happy for my purchase! I wanted to get this one as it has a better battery life than the older version. On a side note, I would recommend getting (at least) a screen protector & maybe the pro controller if you are going to game heavily. I used the joycons for a couple of days and they feel too thin for my tastes. They're fine, but I feel like I'm going to break the A button. I'm just happy I finally got one, and if you're looking for a regular Switch and have the money, buy it immediately because it would go out of stock within hours.

    portability is so nice, games are going to be the difference maker though. it's like having a 4k tv without 4k content. BotW is one of my all time favorite games. splatoon for me is a long term game that I enjoy playing. very easy device to use. having is usb c is very handy.

    Experience was great! I had to order in advance due to it not being available at my closest locations (I didn’t feel like driving to any other ones) so took a few days but was ready for pick up a day before they told me it would be ready which was great! Bought it for my goddaughter and she was so happy! Love the amount of girl games & accessories are available. Also such easy setup! Took about 5 mins to setup. As Best Buy communication/pick up was fast & easy as well!

    The Switch is great for all different ages and skill levels. I play Mario Maker 2 online with my 7 and 3 year olds a couple times a week. We all have a blast trying out different levels made by players all over the world.

    So I’m glad I waited to buy a Switch because they improved the battery life on the improved Switch. I love to watch tv and play it handheld. The longer battery life is great for commuting/traveling, too! Really love it and so glad I bought it.

    Got this as a gift for my dad for his birthday and he absolutely loves it! We also got the special micro SD card for it to be able to download more games and it's so convenient! Best Buy made it so easy to order it online and pick it up. It's quick to set up and begin playing, almost everyone in my family has gotten a switch at this point and it's a great deal for something so easy and fun!

    Best portable system ever

    The screen is great being both touch and a nice personal mini monitor for playing with the controller separately. It hooks right up to the television and looks great as well (although, don't expect it to be the same experience as a PS4 or XBOX ONE, but that's not what Nintendo is about - they are all about just having fun with video games). I definitely recommend getting this version over the lite portable standalone: 1. you can replace the controllers on this machine and 2. you can share with others 3. you can play it on the big screen. Saving $100 is not worth eliminating these advantages. The only thing I'm not crazy about with the Switch is the tiny analog controllers that are not nearly as comfortable as the XBOX and PS controllers. You can get alternative controllers to remedy this issue though.

    The Nintendo Switch I’m glad I made, I use it all home all the time and actually took it with me to use on the plane while traveling as well. It’s super convenient and the selection of game Nintendo provides are awesome, having a blast!

    The Switch is a fantastic little console - and the first to get me back into console gaming after years of PC gaming. The selection of games is incredible (they really will put Skyrim on anything), and the docking feature is wonderful for gaming at home. It's obviously very portable as well so gaming on the go is simple and enjoyable. Some accessories are a must to make up for the shortcomings of the device. You will want a carrying case to protect your gear and tote around any physical games you collect. You will want an SD card for your digital media/games, because 32GB just isn't enough. Finally, buy a nice Pro or third party controller. If you have large hands there is nothing about this console, the Joycons, or even the Joycon grip that is ergonomic/comfortable. I suspect this is an issue for hands of all sizes, especially after extended use.

    So far we love it (with an update)

    The Nintendo Switch has so many different gaming options all in one that we can switch between (probably why it's called a switch). We played games on our Android TV and got a bunch of fun attachments. All good so far!!!! 1 year Edit - Whelp we are now dealing with what the internet calls the "orange screen of death" after only a year of having it. It's not charging correctly and then today the only screen we could get was an orange screen....looked it up and apparently this is what happens when it detects a "catastrophic failure" hence "the orange screen of death". I have a replacement plan and will talk with Best buy and the geek squad but the fact that we're having to do this a year in is very frustrating. I guess better a year in than after the plan expires. Will update again with what happens.

    Have always loved Nintendo consoles. Have definitely found myself playing it until 4 in the morning since it can be used handheld. The controllers are small but still easy to hold and I like that you can easily bring it with you anywhere
