Console is easy to setup and has decent games. We have only tried a handful of the games available but has great graphics and game experience. Only drawback is the small controllers but I suppose it is fine for handheld mode

My husband plays Zelda and my son Mario kart, so I was lucky to buy the Nintendo with the Mario kart for just the price of the console, then I was able to get the Zelda as well. Excellent game for both my husband and my boy.

I love this system. I'll be happy if/when the virtual console returns like the Wii/Wii U, but this system has the potential to be super great & I can't wait to play this more in the future!
If the virtual console, this system would be even greater but I'm sure in time Nintendo will improve!!!
But overall, great system & playing Mario Kart 8non here is so much fun. I can't wait to play other games on here!!!

My son loves his new purchase and it keeps him busy and occupied as there are many games available for the unit. This is a great console and comes at a great price. You won't be disappointed with this purchase.

Got for my 6 year old for Christmas and he loves it. Can play the classic games I grew up with on there as well as new HD games that he loves like Fortnite and Minecraft. We love MARIO kart and MARIO party.

Mario Kart Bundle was a good deal. Great game. Looks good and easy console to hook up. Not a big fan of the controllers it comes with so suggest buying upgrades if going to use it on a tv.

I got this as a gift for my nephew and he loves it!
TIP: This is the older version with the lower battery life. However, my nephew will leave it docked mostly so it doesn't bother him.

The Nintendo Switch would be a great gift for your average everyday friend. It was really easy to set up, the interface is so user-friendly you'll never be confused over anything and it allows for portable hand held usage as well. Each complete controller (2 joy-cons connected by a "grip") will set you back 70-80 which isnt the best considering most left joy-cons have been recalled due to its drifting issues. Most of the switch's most popular games are ports from previous consoles and only has a few original games are actually worth their price (Breath of The Wild, Mario Odyssey, etc). Games run on 60fps however the switch as a console is so underwhelming compared to what has been introduced in the gaming community that it'll have to go even lower to 30 frames per second during specific animations on some of the bigger budget games. Today my switch is mainly used for large group play events via smash bros, Mario kart, or Mario party. Outside a cute console to play with large groups of people the Nintendo switch is an okay console. I'd give it a weak 6/10. Rating it 4 stars though because I do enjoy how it allows communities from previous Nintendo consoles to continue thriving via competitive play. (EX. Smash/Splatoon Tournaments)

If you are one to be on the go, then this is the game console for you. It's stationary and portable. Great for my kids and no more carrying a huge console around from house to house.

I have young children that aren't ready for a PS or Xbox. This system has age appropriate games as well as a system that is easy to travel with. This system is very kid friendly.
