Nintendo didn’t disappoint with this one. The switch is a must have console for every household, especially in a household with children. The graphics are amazing. It’s easy to use and set up. And you can play old Mario games.

Not gonna lie I was skeptical I would like the switch since I’m not a Nintendo guy. But it’s quickly become one of my favorite consoles

The Nintendo Switch is a versatile hybrid game console that easily pivots between a big-screen TV and on-the-go portable. The initially slim game library includes a good mixture of must-have Nintendo franchise exclusives, indie titles and even some decent PC ports. I really like it!

My 5y.o. son loves this game system. I like the fact that he can take it with him in the vehicle when we go on trips, and hook it up to the TV when we get to our destination or when we are at home. We have had if for a month. love it so far.

Best game system ever created. Great for the kids and also something the family can play together

I bought this game player for my Grandson who is 7. He had no problems learning it and got started playing very quickly with very little instruction. He likes it. There seems to be plenty of not so violent games available to play on this machine.

I didn't know what the big deal was, but now that we have one, it's a wonderful console. He can instantly share the controls with someone else. It looks crystal clear both hand held and on the tv. Super easy for a kid to install.

My wife wanted one, ended up getting it and then we both love it. Small controllers and easy to use! In the house, on the road, or on a plane! Amazing

What a great system! Nintendo has been around for a long time, and this is such an improvement over their other handhelds. It works phenomenal and it has great picture for a handheld system. It has no problem keeping up with any games run on it. Very handy for Mario Kart and other games. The battery lasts quite a while too on a single charge. You can also watch Hulu and other streaming services on it too which is great for traveling.

This is the go to system for a handheld. Bonus is you can potentially connect to your tv and play off it if you don’t want to play handheld. Like how it has the option to separate the joy cons and or use an external remote.

Greay gift idea and what a fun time playong mario party with the family.

This is a great gaming console/device. It is extremely portable, without sacrificing content or quality (unlike the DS, which is strictly handheld). My daughter is so excited about it, because she loves gaming all over the house, not mentioning the convenience for long road trips.

Every home needs a switch. Such a fun family gaming system. We have hours of family time, laughing and playing the switch. Get one!

I grew up playing Nintendo, and steered away from it... I like the convenience of taking the unit with you..ie”portable”... picture quality on both TV and handheld” can’t wait for super smash bros on this device.. have MC8, SF2, BM, &Pokemon Battle... no regrets again great quality

Love my switch! Couldn’t go without this gaming device! As a family we love having the switch! Everyone has their own(A switch or lite) in the house!

I have been a long time gamer and I currently own a Xbox X and a PS4 Pro and I really never thought about buying a Switch until recently. I found it more intriguing than the Wii but I wasn't sure it was for me and my typical gaming preferences. I figured if I wanted to play something on the go, or play for a quick few minutes, I would just use my iPad or phone. However, I soon got tired of most iPad/phone games being 'free' games with a ton of ads or having to pay micro-transactions to do anything. I much prefer just paying once upfront for a game and not be held back by not paying money. Also, very few of those games I found I enjoyed for any amount of time. So as I thought about it I started to think how nice it would be to have a console-like experience on the go or just something I could pick up to play for 10 minutes anywhere in the house. So after about a week or so of consideration, and reading a couple recent articles of why people love their Switch, I decided that it might be something that would fill the gaming 'gap' So I picked up a Switch and I have owned it for about 3-4 weeks now and I have enjoyed it. I have only used it as a portable and have not hooked it up to the large TV yet. Like I had envisioned it is great to sit on the couch and get in a few minutes of Zelda, or some other game, without going to the other TV and fire up one of the consoles. I look forward being able to bring it on the plane as well instead of having to play Candy Crush or some other lame game to waste time. So here are what I see being a few pluses and minuses: Pluses: +portability - it's best feature! +better games than what can be had on other portable devices +very quick start-up/load times +comes with the dock to play on the TV. Most companies (i.e. Apple or Microsoft) would probably have charged separately for it. +quality first party games (Zelda, Mario, etc) Minuses: - battery life is okay at about 2.5 - 3 hrs - need to buy another power supply if you don't want to always charge it in the dock. Otherwise you have to unplug the dock to bring the cable to charge it somewhere else. - need a screen protector and a carrying case - screen could be a tad higher resolution - charging port on the bottom is not a great design choice if you want to charge and play - Charging cable could be longer for charging while playing - Charging cable plug could have been smaller and with retractable prongs so it is easier to pack on the go - Kickstand when not playing as a handheld is flimsy. Why didn't they at least add a second one or put a wider one in the middle? So while there are more 'minuses' they are not deal breakers and are more observances/annoyances than anything. So overall the Switch is a great for those that are used to a high end gaming experience but want something portable. I will say though that if I had to choose 1 of the 3 consoles to play, all things equal, the Switch would be 3rd on the list. However, the Switch versus other portable options it would be 1st by a landslide.

This console has been a life saver during all of this free time. The ui is simple and attractive, the catalogue of games is beautiful, and being able to switch really is wonderful. To my surprise, I play in table top mode most of the time.

We bought this for ourselves, we absolutely love it. We play it all the time so fun to have for a family game night.

Must have for every Nintendo fan. Young and old! Perfect for playing with your family and friends or on your own. If you sign up for Nintendo Online which is only $20 for a full year, you have access to classic NES and SNES games for free!

We never thought we could pick one up during pandemic, not to mention with the release of animal crossing. The experience is great, playing with my brother with the included mini games from it. Definitely recommend this to my friends!
