    Fun console but needs more games

    As of this writing, 12/15/17, there are not many game options. They have a few good games at launch, like zelda and Mario, but are missing a variety of 3rd party games. While this is no suprise, as it never is with Nintendo, it is more noticible since the games we got are rereleases that have been out for some time. Hopefully the line up will get more inclusive with time. Beyond the games, the hardware is great. The controller is a large step up from the wiiu gamepad despite being similar in design. Since the controllers charge while the machine is docked, we have had no issues with needing to stop playing to charge. We seem to get about 3 to 4 hours from the tablet portion when it is off the dock.

    I really do enjoy the switch! I like how you can go anywhere with it and play! So different from wii u! Also love the games that have different characters then the wii u!

    The system itself is really cool. It was super simple to setup. I like that you can have different profiles on it. To play a multiplayer game like Mario Party you don’t even have to buy another controller because the controller that comes with it turns into two controllers!! I really like the fact that you can hold it and play it and then set it into the doc and it instantly goes on the TVs and same when you take it out of the doc. The docking station is smaller and lighter than I expected. The only downside is the cost of buying extra joy cons and that it doesn’t have much memory built in.

    I've loved Nintendo games for a long time, but the biggest issue I had was having a device that held a lot of games in one space without the need for a physical external drive. This device not only runs extremely smooth, it holds a lot of storage for what you pay for it. Would definitely recommend to anyone who has the heart for Nintendo games like I do.

    The Nintendo switch is by far a really innovated and really great console to own, whether your an "on the go'' type of gamer or a "sit in front of the tv on a comfy couch" type of gamer or both. The battery life and the processor has been improved with the new version of the switch and there are a lot of great titles that have been released and are still being released that will catch anyone's attention. side note I actually own an xbox one X and a ps4 Pro and I have to say..I haven't really used them as much since building my gaming pc and buying the switch except for only some jrpg's like persona 5 on the ps4.

    Not going to lie I’ve owned Nintendo systems in the past and I was expecting something similar to the old UI but it’s not really similar at all and very different but similar when it comes to gaming. They definitely made it more kid friendly I guess you could say and parental controlled but it’s still pretty good none the less. Audio quality would be average but could definitely be better. But I love being able to take this on road trips and being able to play together with others anywhere and everywhere. It’s not heavy doesn’t heat up because there’s a fan. The battery life is average.

    I have PS2 and Wii. I have played on PS3 and Xbox at friends' places. But Switch is so different! Small console, very portable, easy to set up. Very few wires. Sleek controllers. Superb battery life.

    The Nintendo Switch is popular for good reason. It is fun to use and easy - even for beginners. There is a good selection of titles, but I would like to see even more!

    The battery life last long! Amazing on the go as well as great game system when docked as well. Compared to the last model for the switch this model is highly recommended.

    A capable and enjoyable console

    The ability to swap between a portable and a docked mode is something every console should have. While it's not as powerful as an Xbox or PlayStation, the Switch is still a very capable system. My only nitpick is the tiny joy-cons, but there are Nintendo and aftermarket controllers available that make up for this minor (IMO) shortcoming. I am completely satisfied with my Switch and have no reservations suggesting it to anyone looking for a new console. (Keep in mind, there's a new model on the horizon - you might wanna hold off and see what that one's got in store!)

    LOVE the switch. It reminds me of the Gamecube console. Bringing me back to my youth. The remotes are obviously very small when holding them individually. It's a little uncomfortable but still works. I am also a little bummed that after a few years it does not have access to Netflix nor does it have disney+. Hoping that'll change in the near future.

    A great product that offers so much entertainment and convenience for the price! The selection of games available for this console are great, and many are wholesome enough to enjoy as a family together. Who doesn't like playing a character like Mario one minute then doing Zumba the next? The upcoming games also look promising. I like this product a lot!

    It's actually portable now

    If you got the 2nd iteration of the console (indicated by the background color on the box is completely red), you can pretty much play this for 5-6 hours as opposed to 2-3. Totally worth it, even if you have the first generation model that has its own secret perks if it's a launch model. Personally, I'd still choose this over the Lite model since you get a lot of value for $300. A set of Joycons are $80, and the dock itself is $60, and you're getting all of these right out of the box. Plus you still have the option of playing your games on the big screen. The only tradeoff is the console's LCD isn't as good as the Lite's.
