    Nintendo's greatest handheld console...

    Nintendo's greatest handheld console... which also doubles as a decent home console. It's not even been a year since the Switch has released, and there are already a vast, diverse assortment of games to choose from (and more to come), 1st party & 3rd party alike; and many of them are top tier, GOTY contenders. Being able to play all these AAA style games on the go, is a dream come true, and for the most part the hardware handles them well. Some of the more modern 3rd Party titles like "Doom" look a bit blurred/low res when docked/on the TV; but actually look pretty good when scaled down on the switched 6.2" screen. 1st party titles seem to scale better on the TV when docked; many at or near 1080p. My only real complaints as of now are software/OS related - NINTENDO, give us CLOUD SAVES/BACKUPS - Virtual Console - & built-in online that doesn't require an additional tablet/phone.

    Wonderful console capable of handheld gaming on the go. It's the perfect blend of both options. I primarily do my gaming at home, but the ease of taking it outside or bringing it with me when I travel has been a pleasure. I've owned it for more than a year, and my favorite aspect is being able to easily include other people in on games with the detachable joy cons controllers and the overall versatility of the console.

    this machine is impressive, the design is sturdy and classy. love the joycons, and being able to play co-op without the need of additional controllers because THEY COME WITH THE UNIT! . what a best way to entertain yourself and when i want to leave the house or move around i just undock the console instantly and keep playing. the best purchase ive ever made.

    Overall, the switch is an excellent console. It's been a ton of fun getting to experience remastered games on a hand held system, as well as finally getting a new Zelda game. It has it's fair share of faults, the joy-cons can get worn from use and start acting a little glitchy, and the battery wears after about a year, but that's expected from such a powerful system.

    Great Console

    I’ve always been a Nintendo fan, especially for their portable consoles. So when I saw they came out with a hybrid portable console I knew I wanted it. I waited till the library of games had built up enough and pulled the trigger. The variety of games for the console is its strong suit. It has everything from original games and Wii U ports all the way to great indie titles and amazing pc ports. The only criticism I have is the joy cons are awkward. The work ok for single player but are almost unusable for multiplayer. Portable mode is the only time I find myself using them. Otherwise I use a power a controller (similar to the Nintendo pro controller). This makes gaming sessions on the tv far more tolerable. If you’re a Nintendo fan this is a must have. If you’re not it makes a pretty decent alternate console for gaming on the go.
