BL3 - Nintendo Switch

This game is great. I had it for the PS4 and compared it to the gameplay on the Nintendo Switch. I only play it handheld so the experience was quite different. But it would be like comparing apples to oranges. The gameplay is great, but I think that the game can be to much for the system sometimes and it will randomly close the game during gameplay.

This game is soooo good! I’m super happy they added it on the Nintendo switch! And a great value at under $20!

The whole reason I bought a switch was because I saw it’s now compatible with the Nintendo switch lite!!! It’s my favorite game ever and I’m so happy I’m able to play it anywhere!

Doesn't support couch-op (local co-op)

The game itself is great. If you've played any of the other Borderlands games then you know what you're getting. The only thing I hate is that it does not support couch-op (local co-op). I specifically bought this for that reason so that my girlfriend and I could play together at home just like we've been doing for all of the other Borderlands games. Not having that support was very disappointing as we were looking forward to playing this game together. Now the only way we can play this together is to get another Nintendo Switch, another copy of Borderlands 3, and a family online membership! That's way too costly at being over $400 and no way we are going to do that. I just hope that Borderlands or Nintendo will release a software update for this game to support couch-op (local co-op) like all its other games do. Please fix this!

Quality and graphics are better than before, and the game play / storyline line makes this game series easy to binge for a day or pick right back up where you left off after a few days of not playing.

A bit laggy on the switch, but didn't run into any real issues during gameplay (everything loaded correctly, no character issues, doesn't look crystal clear but good enough, dialogue was quicker than the subtitles, but still fun enough to play on the go). Beat the game and nothing went wrong, only a bit more loading time than what you would get on a PC or game system (i originally played this game on ps4).

If you liked the previous borderlands then youll definitely enjoy this title. This game is newcomer friendly. I purchased this game specifically to play wirh a friend because shes new to playing video games. She has recently has started an interest in playing other games than your typical crash and spyro titles. Anyhow its a fun game and i paid 20 dollars for this game so its a no brainer.

Borderlands is My all time favorite co-op game. I like the fact that there’s a storyline behind with different mini side quests.

Frequently Crashes

While I really like this franchise, I am disappointed in the frequency in which it crashes. The game often loses connection with the server and shuts down to the switch Home Screen. Maybe the developers will fix this problem as more people play this game on the switch platform.

The game requires a large download where you will need an SD Card. There is nothing on the inside of the box. No instructions or artwork. But at $20, it's a steal for the game.
