    We had been debating on purchasing this product for several months and it finally just happened on our last Best Buy visit. We are still learning the system and have only played two games so far but the system is highly recommended.

    I'm having a wonderful time with my daily fitness exercises. I used to own a Wii and unfortunately there are not as many fitness apps for the Switch, which is the only reason I gave 4 instead 5 stars.

    I waited to purchase this system because I am not a Zelda fan. I wanted to play Mario Kart 8 and Super Mario Odyssey. These games are a lot of fun. The first thing I bought was a good screen protector because of all the stuff I read about the screen scratching. I also bought a good case so I can take it with me. I like the portability and the ability to play with friends at work. I am not so happy with the weak Wi-Fi on the device. All my other devices can use wi-fi anywhere in my tiny apartment but this thing is super sensative in that area. All the accessories are really expensive, I saved up my gift cards to buy this system and bought it when Best Buy had a promotion. I like the games I have but I would like to play some N64 titles as well as some Wii U titles so I am hoping they get their virtual console up and running on the eshop soon. It would be cool to play more third party games but it just seems too early to tell if this system will really go anywhere. If you are a hardcore Nintendo gamer this is for you but if you are a PS4 or XBox console gamer, try before you buy!

    The switch is a great device. It is portable and can also be connected to your TV. You can use it in school, Work, a plane. It also doesn’t require a WiFi connection. It has great exclusive games and great games that are on all console platforms like 2k19 and Fortnite. I think it is worth the $300 price tag. Some great exclusive games that don’t require a WiFi connection is Mario odyssey, Zelda breath of the wild, Mario cart deluxe 8, Super Smash bros, Mario tennis aces, and Kirby star allies.

    Great portable console BUT...

    I haven't used Nintendo hardware in more than 10 years. I was not a fan of the direction Nintendo took with the Wii & WiiU, nor the Nintendo DS and 3DS. But when I saw that that they had finally returned to something more traditional when it came to a console and its controller, I became open to getting this. And as soon as Mario Kart 8 came out, I couldn't resist. This is easily the best portable games console I've ever had and I'm enjoying it a great deal. It's great to see Nintendo adopt universal standards like USB-C. The buttons feel good, the construction feels good (other than the kickstand), and it's just sheer joy to be carrying around a system that is capable of multiplayer all the time. To be able to prop up the system, slide off the controllers, and play impromptu multiplayer anywhere? Just surreal! Here are the flaws though. As great as the screen is, it should be 1080p instead of 720p. There aren't enough games to play on the system and third party support has been limited thus far. The online multiplayer system is bare bones and is not going to be free anymore come this Fall. If it's worth paying for, it has to be a lot better than what it is. Where is the bluetooth support for headsets and headphones? Where is the virtual console library of classic games that we all want to start buying from? Finally, and possibly worst of all, this thing just doesn't have great battery life. It depends on the game, and sure, you can play around with brightness settings and play on mute or with headphones, but you will never get more than 3 hours of playtime with this thing. For extended or marathon gaming sessions, that isn't going to cut it. Also, as a home console, this thing has not earned the right to be in my home entertainment center. No support for streaming media services? 70 dollars for the pro controller? A lackluster online service that doesn't support voice chat? No thanks. Honestly, I never thought I'd be open to getting this system. But this is the most modern Nintendo console ever. Playing online Mario Kart and Street Fighter 2 with my friends has been a ton of fun, even without voice chat and even with friend codes. The Switch is missing a lot of things but as a portable system, I haven't had this much fun with a Nintendo system in a long time.

    38 year old kid in a candy shop I am for my birthday! Ingenuity is hard to describe, but definitely awesome and nature feeling to play. Especially in handheld mode playing virtually anywhere.

    The Switch is exactly what was promised. Transferring from dock to handheld and vise versa is flawless, just like in the advertising. Putting it into sleep mode is also instant, allowing you to go back to the exact spot you were in when you turned it off, even in the middle of cut scenes. It also saves your game right before your console dies when in handheld mode so you don't lose any progress! Battery life is about 3-4 hours depending on screen brightness and what game you're playing, it does support external batteries to combat that issue.
