    Portable Minecraft is Worth it

    While not the definitive edition of the game, Minecraft of the Switch satiates me in an entirely new way. I spent a while contemplating whether or not it was worth it to re-buy a game I already owned on PC and PS4 (knowing full well that it wouldn't include all of the latest features). I'm happy to say that I don't regret my purchase one bit, and I am surprised by how easy it is to get sucked back into a game I've already sunk countless hours into before, now that I have a proper portable version. The Switch version might be a few updates behind, but being able to play it on-the-go with physical controllers definitely made the purchase more than worth the asking price. In my opinion this is as necessary a title on the Switch as Breath of the Wild or Mario Kart are. I mean, it's Minecraft, but the Switch really changes up how and (most importantly) where you play it.

    Minecraft and Mario? Sounds Amazing

    The Nintendo Switch version of Minecraft is great because it comes with the Mario DLC. You can play regular Minecraft just as fine but why not play as your favorite Mario characters like Mario, Luigi, Bowser, etc. It's a must have for any Minecraft fan or Nintendo Switch owner. Be sure to take advantage of Best Buy's Price Match when purchasing this. Nintendo Switch games can be quite pricey and stuck at the MSRP. This game is usually $29.99ish so I recommend purchasing it at least $19.99 or below. Good luck.

    My son loves Fortnite. He was looking into trying something else out and when I asked him what game he thought hed be intetested in he told me Minecraft. So, I purchased it for his Nintendo Switch. He loves it. Im happy with it and especially because of his age... Hes only 6 years old so I believe its more appropriate than fortnite for his age. I recommend this game for any parent of a younger child that loves to play video games.

    Minecraft completes a child's switch game library

    It's Minecraft. It's on the Switch. That's about all you need to know - this is a particularly useful purchase if you have children that are missing on their own cellphone or tablet. It's an excellent port and will keep your kids quiet for hours on long car journeys. As far as I'm aware this is the only physical copy of Minecraft available (across all platforms) so in that sense it's rather unique.

    My daughter wanted to try Minecraft so I bought it for her. She has so much fun and it's nothing violent or gory. I might pick a copy up for myself so we can play together.

    I like that it’s the full game that you can play on the go, even allowing you to play with friends on other consoles. The game doesn’t run the smoothest, but it is great for the kiddos or when you’re on the go.

    Honestly, it's Minecraft, I can't complain alot. It's a great experience for those that have never played it and a great portable game for the switch. I bought this game for my sister last Christmas, being the first and only game she owned for the switch, she played it a ton. She knew what Minecraft was, but never actually owned her own copy before, and quickly hopped on the Minecraft hype train that has been slowly rising this year. Before I knew it, it sucked me in too and I bought it for Windows 10, this being my first time owning Minecraft as well. Its really good personal fun, building silly things, fighting in survival. When you get down to it, it's simple, and easy to pick up. The real meat for me though was the multiplayer, once you set up a Microsoft account, it really is seamless to play with any other platform. Friend someone through Xbox live, and you can see them in game and join anytime. Me and my sister have a huge world we've been building for some time, and is definitely the best multiplayer experience iv had that isn't a Nintendo party game. If your on the fence, try it. It goes on sale alot, and on other platforms it's even cheaper. It's amazing when it's portable, and the mashup packs included here can be pretty fun too. A+

    Performance on the Switch is impressively smooth, and the level of detail in the environment and mechanics is a testament to Nintendo's design excellence. This is a must-play for any Switch owner and easily one of the best games of the generation.
