    Great Enough to Buy 2

    I’ve had a Switch for a year and bought this one so I could travel and my son could still have one at home. EShop credit was a great added bonus. If I liked it enough to buy another, enough said. This can’t beat the quality of my PS4 Pro on a QLED 4K but I can’t pack all of that in a carry on bag.

    I tend to travel around a lot and I was lagging behind in my gaming because I couldn't bring my console everywhere I went. Now with the Nintendo Switch I can game anywhere at anytime. The fact that it is easy to carry and the battery life is pretty great makes this my new favorite console.

    I was reluctant to get a Switch since I hardly have time to play consoles any more. I love the fact that it is dockable/portable. Being able to pick up where I left off on a game any time, anywhere has really gotten me to play a bit more than I expected. It's been great for traveling too.

    This device is super cool for when the little ones come over to our not-so-kid friendly house. They are entertained for hours and the console is actually great for all ages when adults want to join. We need to buy another set of JoyCon to make it easier for more people to play

    Nintendo is back! If you are a fan of Nintendo you will not be disappointed. If you are not a fan, this system will still impress you. Just because it is not the most powerful console on the market doesn’t mean it isn’t power packed! You can take your games with you whenever you go!

    I have played only Xbox since the original realsed. However since I have hooked this up i have not played Xbox. This system has games for me and for my younger nephews to enjoy. The retro NES games are still fun and challenging. And the new games like Civ 6 give a great challenge.

    Nintendo continues to do its own thing with the Switch, focusing on fun instead of raw power. I finally picked up a Switch with the $35 eShop credit and am glad I did. Lots of great indie titles to play now, and looking forward to big titles like Fire Emblem later this year.

    The Switch has been a huge hit for my my nephews under 10. I've been able to play some of the game series that I grew up with as well, which has been awesome.

    The switch is ... just fine. Construction is solid and the joycons are surprisingly great for the games I play on it. I felt like it lacked accessories like a standard-feel controller for the price. I have an Xbox and PC/VR so this is reserved solely for the Nintendo games that I'll play once a month or so with friends and family, but for an initial price point of $300.00 + over $200.00 in accessories, it's hard to justify it with my limited use. It's a great device, but its not replacing my actual console. If you are on the fence about it, I would probably avoid.

    This is the best console out right now. Can take with you and has the old school use of having friends over and can play against each other in person, not just online. Plus the free $35 credit from Nintendo is a plus and can’t complain with free credit towards a game.

    The switch is my favorite gaming device that’s not my computer. It’s good to take with you anywhere and it is so fun. I bought it for the new Pokémon game but I also bought legend of Zelda breath of the wild and it’s now currently my favorite game on the switch.

    We bought the switch with the $35 gift card for our son's birthday and he couldn't be happier. He decided to use the $35 for the year family membership for switch online, loves the classic games, loves how quickly it can go from docked to handheld, great buy!

    My son wanted an Xbox but my wife chose the Switch. Everyone in our family has been able to enjoy this! Flexibility to use without internet at home, in the car, restaurants, waiting lines, and travel - make this an amazing thing to have for families.

    It's absolutely amazing. I love the indie games on eShop. The first party games are great as well. Love the 3rd party support. Easy to use. My only complaint is there is only YouTube and Hulu right now. Nintendo online is an excellent deal as well.

    I love the switch so much! There are a few different controllers you can use which makes it nice for games like smash bros. Very easy to set up and take down if you bring it to a friends house. I would recommend to anyone who likes Nintendo games!

    This is one of my favorite Nintendo Systems, and I've owned them all. The amount of quality games that are released are amazing compared to the stuff coming out on Xbox and Playstation. Very convenient that It can play in handheld and docked mode.

    Only two days in and I’m very happy with this purchase. Glad I bought this one as it includes a $35 credit to purchase it download games in the Nintendo eShop. Easy set up to connect to your tv, and I love that it is compact enough for easy travel.

    The switch is what Nintendo has been working towards for years. Finally, a melding of their portable and home consoles, able to seamlessly "switch" between each other. Their game library is growing and I cannot wait.

    I had been debating on whether to buy the Nintendo Switch for awhile. When I saw the bundle with the $35 eshop giftcard included I decided to jump on it and couldn't be happier. Been enjoying Super Smash Bros. and minecraft.
