    Once again Nintendo has managed to create a stylish, special edition console that appeals to their base of fans...creating a frenzy. It truly highlights the lighthearted, fun feel of Animal Crossing and the color scheme captures the laid back island lifestyle of the new installment.

    Animal Crossing games are incredibly charming, but this Switch model's pastel theme and painted dock are downright tasteful - elegant, even. I particularly love details like the white backsides of the Joy-Cons and the villager etchings on the back of the console.

    Got it for my sister for her birthday, loves the cute design and color scheme. Enjoys playing on it and fixing up her island on animal crossing. Great for people who love “asthetic”

    This console has brought our family just a little bit closer on the weekends. We are able to come together and relax or have fun after a week of work and school. Really great for kids on road trips or when they invite their friends over. Great purchase.

    I love this item but when I turn off the console, if I’m using the handheld mode, the left controller unlocks and detaches from the switch.

    The Nintendo switch is a nice addition to our gaming family. It was easy to find stock with my search online. Best Buy is great and keeps updates on their stock of products for online shopping.

    Upgraded from Nintendo switch lite. Animal crossings edition is highly sought after. More battery life and bigger screen than the lite plus sociable to tv. Tons of games. I would highly recommend the Nintendo switch. Lately I’ve been enjoying Skyrim in handheld mode.

    Very cool alternate version of the switch console. Even if you are not a fan of Animal Crossing its a very nice looking console. The colors are not too bright and the screen has engravings in the back of animal crossing characters.

    I don't play my Switch often but it's great for when I have friends over and we want to do something other than watch TV. The colors are super cute and I love the Animal Crossing theme.

    Finally bought this after going back and forth over the last year. I got a Switch a month after they came out and finally upgraded to the improved model. Couldn’t be happier. I’m not a huge Animal Crossing fan but the look of this console is unbeatable.

    I bought this for my son to play and he loves it. He can play it on the tv and then unhook it and it’s a handheld to play on the go. Pretty convenient. I just wish they had another color in stock when I purchased this lol

    Bought this as our second, actually third as we also have a switch lite, for our daughter so she and my wife would have their own game system to play Animal Crossing. My daughter really likes the different-colored dock and the color of the included joycons.

    No Complaints, Great Console

    Nothing to complain about — great console, arrived in great quality. Do take caution about Best Buy’s choice of post transport: they use OnTrac, and OnTrac is infamous for stolen and missing packages. Maybe consider picking your console up in store.

    Great idea for a video game system. Perfect for a handheld device. Portable but with a decent sized screen. Hook to large screen TV and have a console to play with. Lots of great games available as well.

    Honestly, this is like the perfect Switch for Animal Crossing fans. Beautiful pastel colors, and a detailed backplate make this edition of the Switch well worth it. Even if you are not collecting this for collector's sake, it's just such a pretty Switch to own!

    I suprised my wife with this as a Christmas gift since she loved playing the Wii version of the game and she was amazed on the quality of the Dock, Joy-Cons, and the other accessories that came in the box. Well worth the price for any Animal Crossing fans.

    Great alternative color scheme with the white dock and joycons. Hopefully the joycons won’t suffer from drift issues like other existing joycons...

    I love this edition of the switch so much! The colors are so cute. I loved it even more once it was out of the box. Will definitely be buying accesories to protect it with. Doesnt come with the game though so youll have to purchase that separately.
