    Great system to play by yourself or with friends and family! Has a nice amount of titles to choose from. Nice and portable to play on the go, but also nice to be able to dock and play on a big screen. Battery life is nice and also has lots of apps you can download onto it as well.

    Grandson lives on his Nintendo Switch uses it all the time. It is a great way to spend rainy days or otherwise. Friends love to share in the fun. Good quality.

    The Nintendo Switch I think is one their best models. In terms of larger consoles- I wasn't terribly impressed with a system since the Gamecube. Wii was fine. But the motion control here is beyond compare. + the fact that the controls are smaller are easier on the hands. Far less clunky than those remotes. + the fact that it's portable and the screen retains such excellent game quality- a total game changer! Great title selection- very happy overall.

    We had a a very hard time finding a Nintendo Switch. I tried for a few weeks and finally saw it pop up online at Best Buy and was thrilled with the communication and easy pick up at the store. My daughter is 12 and really wanted to play animal crossing with friends. She loves it. We love the flexibility of connecting it to the TV and all of us playing games too. It's a great system and easy to use. I would definitely recommend it.

    This was the best investment! It's brought me back to my childhood and the quality is amazing. I love that the console allows up to 8 players on certain games, it just makes it that much more fun. You do have to buy an SD card for it for extra memory, as the console only comes with 32 gbs, but any micro sd card will do the job!

    The Nintendo Switch is a blast to enjoy whether you're playing by yourself or with others. There is now a huge collection of games available that's honestly difficult to keep up with. I'm an international traveler and it's been so nice being able to take my games with me overseas and on the plane. I'd absolutely recommend the system to anyone that enjoys Nintendo games, travels a lot, or just wants to complement their other gaming consoles.

    The system that the PS Vita should have been

    The Nintendo Switch is officially the best console I have owned since the PS2 days. Game selection is excellent and growing more by the week. I have three children and I don't have a lot of time to dedicate to playing video games. Portable mode remedies this by allowing me to play in quick spurts when I have time here and there. The ability to plug into a TV when I want to play a longer session is very convenient and just adds to the versatility of this system. Graphically, this system won't come close to Sony, Microsoft or a dedicated gaming PC, but that is not why you would purchase this system in the first place. I feel that games like Doom and Wolfenstein showcase that you don't need top notch specs to make an enjoyable gaming experience. If you need the best of the best as far as graphics are concerned, look elsewhere, this is not that system. However if you want the convenience of playing your games on the go, including AAA titles, this is the system to get. The Nintendo Switch is everything the PS Vita should have been and I look forward to seeing what titles make their way over next.

    What consoles should be

    Yes, this is a console that works in both the TV and while traveling. Games are full HD and look like a home console game when using a TV or in the touchscreen. Games like Zelda Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey are the must haves. Second to that Splatoon 2 and Mario Kart Deluxe are fun multiplayer choice in my opinion. There are other games that are less advertised such as Skyrim, Street Fighter, Resident Evil and a large List of what looks like Indie Games on the eShop. I gave it a 4 stars because of a number of things. Buying more controllers are more expensive now than previous generations, storage is still 32GB (though with microSD you can store up to 2TB), cloud features for saving progress are lacking and virtual console for legacy games is lacking as well. But all of these didn’t stop me from buying the system, so Nintendo must be doing something right ;) Overall, the whole idea of what this console wants to accomplish is the one thing I like above the other Home consoles. It is portable like a gameboy and useful as a home console, no matter the user preference.

    I grew up playing Nintendo consoles and games but moved away from them for others like the Xbox and PlayStation. Mostly because that's were all the good games were at. But ever since they announced this device Nintendo had peaked my interest. Suffice to say that, although this console isn't as powerful as the Xbox one or ps4, it's amazing. The fact that you can play console games on the go with good resolution, and pop it into the TV at anytime, makes this console worth buying. Not to mention they have excellent games.

    I love it so far, they do offer some games for free which is nice, and i love that you can narrow your search by price range. The device was easy to set up, packaging was secure and nothing was damaged when delivered, it came on time.

    I can't speak to reviewing the switch as it was purchased for my twin boys. For most folks the Switch reputation speaks for itself any way. My review is more about Best Buy and the fact that they somehow managed to have a couple switches when they were sold out every where else. I am also pleased to see that the price was not jacked up due to limited supply and great demand. The item was shipped promptly and made it safely. Thanks Best Buy!

    What can I say, the switch has rave reviews across the board. Obviously it doesn't have the power of the PS4 or XBO, but what it can do is offer a great gaming experience at home or on the go. Our household also has a gray model, and I like the neon controllers better but prefer the gray ones out in public. Build quality and battery life are great.

    I had the previous generation Switch console, and this one is definitely better in terms of battery life and heat. I play mostly splatoon 2, and with the old console, it would get quite warm, and get about 2-3 hours of battery life down to 0%. With this newer version of the console, the back is much cooler than previously, and after 2-3 hours, I still have roughly 30-40% left. It's the same switch otherwise, but, better battery life than the previous generation.

    i wanted a switch since it came out, but they were too expensive, or unavailable, so i put off getting one. i finally bit the bullet and bought one with a breath of the wild download. worth. every. penny. the first hour of playtime alone was worth the price i paid. it's so much fun, and the design is unique without being nonfunctional or clunky. it's easy to use, and it already included a ton of storage space, which seems to be a rarity in electronics lately. i'm really happy i was able to buy the console and the game.
