    Bought for my children to use and take when traveling. They love it. Took to work during a very bad weather day for my office assistant who would undoubtedly be bored with the lack of traffic. It got passed around to all of the "bored" staff

    The Nintendo Switch is an amazing handheld/console hybrid. Coming from someone who did not liked any of the previous Nintendo offerings, the switch is amazing. This has replaced all of my Xbox gaming by FAR. GET IT.

    The flexibility of this system is amazing; didn't realize how handy it would be to play as a mobile device. Also, the fact that you can pause a game, put the console to sleep and the instantaneously start it up again with no load times is awesome.

    its great, you can modify the switch controllers to different accessories if your not comfortable with one way, its portable, and it "switches" to the TV just by putting it in its base. the only downside is that the battery only lasts about 2 hours

    The Switch is impressive beyond expectations, the console is really versatile and I love that I'm not forced to play on my TV. Now I can have a baseball game in the background while I play handheld and then easily go back to playing on the TV when the game is done!

    Its great if you like Nintendo games and indies but not much else. A lot of AAA games have been skipping the console and the few that don't have major framerate and resolution problems. People claim it's close to a base Xbox one but it's not it's considerably weaker. The battery life is short for a portable console this is probably it's biggest flaw along with it's big size, doesn't fit in your pocket you're gonna need a backpack/purse. Joycons are fine but you'll need a better controller for games that need precision. They also sacrificed the dpad in order to have the each joycon is a controller gimmick. So if you like having a good dpad while portable you're either gonna need to bring your pro controller, dpad mod your joycons or buy joycons with a proper dpad. It can get pricey. No native Ethernet port on the dock. It makes online gaming rough to put it back lightly. Dock is cheap until you need to replace it and see the price, not cheap at all even though it's just a plastic mold with very basic ports. All in all I'm happy with it their first party lineup up is strong but it's definitely a secondary console type thing. If this was the only console I had I'd be pretty disappointed. Some of the games that have skipped this platform are way better than Nintendo's so far. So although the software is good it's not enough on its own and I hope to see more third party support with games that work and work well. It also doesn't help that it's getting old ports at full price tag.

    So I got my daughter the Switch for Christmas, and she loves it! currently we have Mario Kart, Zelda, Snipperclips and Rayman. We enjoy playing Mario Kart and Snipperclips together. In fact, I would say the Switch is a great tool to bring us even closer!

    This system is so much fun. Clearly it cannot compete with the PS5 or Series X for pure performance (of the PS4 and XBOX One) but it makes up with it with all the fun times.
