    The Nintendo Switch changes the game. Cool multiplayer possiblities, great portability and with a strong set of Franchise Games this will be great.

    The Nintendo Switch is by far one of my FAVORITE video game consoles of ALL TIME; so much so that this one is the 3rd one I've purchased, not for myself but for my Brother so he can experience the joy for himself. If you simply enjoy gaming for the "fun" aspect, do yourself a favour and GET ONE!!!

    A good system. Nintendo memories just keep coming. Being allowed to play new games and even pay to get a subscription to the older titles is awesome. I love coming back to this even with having a PS5.

    I’ve owned many different consoles over the years and this by car meets all my expectations. Big screen playing to hand held playing is seemless and doesn’t skip a beat. The play time is about 2-3 hours handheld before having to dock and the controllers themselves have over 3 hours of play time so it’s just amazing. Only flaw I’ve found is that the switch doesn’t have Hulu or Netflix or Internet. If it did I wouldn’t have to worry about switching my hdmi outputs buuuuuut I hear this might come later on so I’ll hold my breath for now on the matter.

    Had an original switch and the battery life was pretty good. Was waiting for a new release with better battery and this hasn't disappointed through the first few weeks. Worth getting the new chip version than the older one.

    It has all the best titles-- and you can play them on the go. I mainly PC game and am an avid Overwatch player and have a 144hz monitor and a Nvidia 1080-- but to play, a much slower version, Overwatch at work during lunch is a blast! Voice chat and all the regular toxic Overwatch and is there too. Zelda is top notch, Mario was a blast and all the info titles like DeadCells, Cuphead all run great. Can't complain-- no wonder you can't find this thing in stores!

    Fun Little Console

    The switch is a lot of fun but currently with limited games. So far I only have Zelda and Mario Kart and don't see any reason to purchase anything else for it, but those two are great. The system itself works flawlessly and the portability of it is awesome. Great for taking on trips or for killing some time during slow periods at work!

    Really Enjoy the switch, just one quirk

    My family and I have 2 switches, we enjoy them both but here's the quirk that we don't enjoy. If you have a Family Nintendo Online account, the primary account can enjoy games on both switches (digital downloads) but the other members of the family cannot play those games (regardless of if they are being played on the other switch). Now this is not an issue if you own the physical cartridge so note that the problem is only with digital editions. Second quirk, most games do not have cloud saves and when you "transfer" a save between systems it fully moves it from one system to the other. Now, those are the only negatives that I can say about the switch. If you are a solo player and are not sharing a system then I doubt you'll run into these issues. Battery Life is good, screen is good, games are fun. And, again if you are a solo player the digital store is great if you dont want to carry around a bunch of game cards.

    I purchased this for my son's birthday, and he loved it. It is a very good console but probably not if you are a gamer with preference for more dynamic type of games. In my son's case since he will be traveling a lot with his school band, this is the perfect console to bring on those long road trips. The battery last for a very good 4 hours and the controllers are very practical to store. Overall, this is a solid product for kids up to middle school age, or old-school gamers like me!

    I originally bought the Switch to bring on vacation, but quickly found it to be my go-to gaming device even after I got back home (where my main console is a ps4). It's easy to pick up and play and having the unique joycon controllers makes each game feel like a new experience. The new Mario Odyssey and Zelda are must have games without a doubt and have quickly taken over all my free time. This is the first Nintendo console I have had since the 64 and I have no regrets. Looking forward to even more great titles coming out during the holiday season.

    I had a friend that shared they were in stock and to just keep hitting refresh as long as it didn’t show Sold Out! after 8 minutes, it went through! So far holding up well. I bought it for my 5 year old to help cope with isolation, and I forgot how much reading Nintendo games require... he likes it handheld better for little hands but we have fun with new versions of the games I loved on N64, GameCube and Wii. I love that you can play SNES and NES stuff as well!

    Nintendo does it again!

    After the flop that was the Wii U, and the huge success before that was the Wii...Nintendo has done it again! They took a simple concept (a dockable console that's both portable and looks great on modern 4k TV's) and executed it extremely well. Basically, if you love Nintendo, you'll love this. It's not without it's flaws, but in the grand scheme of things there's nothing really even worth mentioning...I will anyway though. The biggest flaw for me personally is they took away the "Virtual Console" and now require a monthly subscription to access a small selection of retro games. Another potential flaw is that the default controllers (Joy-Cons) are EXTREMELY tiny, even while houses in the controller unit provided with the console. I have big hands and using the joy-cons is almost pointless. Their joysticks are also a little on the short side and in turn make aiming an adjustment to get used to. I'd highly recommend getting the Pro Controller or another 3rd part traditional controller if you're more of a "serious" gamer. At the end of the day these flaws don't detract from the experience that is the Switch though and this is easily one of the best "full family" consoles of all time!

    Worth the extra instead of a Lite

    Great to play in groups. I recommend this switch instead of the Lite. Due to the docking base and connection to a tv. It is not much more expensive and is worth the extra for the features. Being able to remove the controls is great since you can take the to a friend to play and play up to 8 people at a time.

    The switch as a mobile device is as good as it gets. It's a long lifed tablet with easy to use and comprehensive controls, what makes the switch great is that you can also throw it up on a tv and continue playing it as a console or vice versa. Right now Zelda and Mario Cart are great, I can only hope that Nintendo continues to make great games to keep the platform relevant.
