    As I have to stay inside all days, having the switch is a game changer and turns my boring self-quarantine to be an enjoyable time. Plus, the switch also provides several fitness games and it actually works!! Very recommend!

    Within three months this game paid for itself given the number of hours it was played and enjoyed! Appreciate the flexibility to take it anywhere and everywhere - highly recommend this game and the concept of "switching" it out to accommodate wherever you might be!

    So much fun to play. The Nintendo Switch isn't just a console; it's a gateway to boundless entertainment. Its ability to seamlessly transition between handheld and docked modes ensures that the fun never has to stop, whether I'm lounging on the couch or commuting to work. The convenience of being able to take my favorite games with me wherever I go is simply unbeatable.

    Haven't spent much time with the console yet but I love it so far. Improves on everything with the Wii U. My only issue so far is the controller. Its fine but I think the pro controller would make things better.

    Great for all ages. Every time I went to go buy this it was sold out but it is absolutely fantastic. It’s super versatile or take it on the go or connect it right to your TV. I’m 33 years old and I play on it all the time.

    Never too old for Nintendo [Switch]

    I was skeptical about getting the Switch in the beginning, thinking that I had aged out of the Nintendo generation (I'm an 80's baby). But i would argue to say that if there was any age group that appreciates the nostalgia of the original Nintendo games and gets to relive them in their latest iteration, this is a must-have console. If all you do is play Mario Kart, Zelda, Smash Bros Ultimate, Pokemon, and Mario Bros. Deluxe (when it comes out), getting a switch will have been completely worth it. Definitely my go-to piece of hardware for any prolonged air-travel.

    I had been thinking about getting a Switch for a while now and I'm glad I finally did it. I love that there are several ways to play and different games use the controllers in different ways. It has been very fun.

    A revision of the acclaimed Nintendo Console. The Nintendo Switch V2 has a longer battery life and the controllers are more improved in it's communication wirelessly to the console. A must have in any gamers collection!

    I've been searching for months for the neon color option to be back in stock at a normal price and I'd say it was definitely worth the wait. Its been fun for the whole family and the travel friendly option is the best.

    I basically stood in line for 4hrs to get this console. The box came with the switch, 2 controllers, AC adapter, TV stand and as a pleasant surprise an HDMI cable. The setup is very easy. Do I like this? Overall I would say Nintendo needs to expand in its current game library. As a portable machine it’s very good. However the moment you connect it to the TV and play 2 players then the remote feels way too small. I’m not sure if I would use the smaller controller and hope that Nintendo will make a full size controller. I do enjoy playing Mario Kart and Splatoon. It works great online as well!

    Tremendous Piece of Hardware

    This console is tremendous. It has a great form factor, comes with two controllers out of the box, and has a sleek user interface. However, the best feature of all is the ability to take the game I'm playing off of the TV and wherever I want. The ability to keep playing while someone watches a show or to take it to a friends house is underrated. I have had none of the reported issues and have amazing experiences with the games. I highly would recommend getting the Pro controller to supplement the experience. One of the best controllers I've ever used with a battery life lasting over a week of gameplay atleast.

    before buying i read many reviews and had learned of some problems the system had but overall it is a fun system to play on although upon first starting it up it is pretty empty and devoid of much of anything but that's a good thing considering the system storage.
