    Wonderfully versatile system with cute design for those obsessed with animal crossing. The switch's capability to be both a console and a handheld system really sells it for me plus fun titles with characters we grew up with

    It goes without saying that this switch is absolutely perfect. I honestly had given up hope on the idea of getting the AC edition switch when it was released, but I’m so glad I was able to snag one with a recent restock. Colors are awesome and of course cute !

    The Switch is a really fun and easy to use console. You can buy game discs or just download them onto your Switch. Changing controller modes is explained on screen and makes it so you can use it as a hand held or in the dock. The Animal Crossing design is really cute!!

    A Special Edition Indeed

    It's so great to have this item back in stock. Great for any hardcore fan of the Animal Crossing series. The exclusive teal and torquoise controllers and the Nook island dock really make this a special edition item while we all wait for a Samus Metroid Prime 4 Special Edition. I had the grey controller edition for months during the pandemic and was sad about the product unavailability, but I bought this anyway as a gift. If you don't have a Switch yet and love Animal Crossing, this is a must have. If you already own a Switch, maybe you want to thinking twice about owning a second. You can always take the Special Edition dock and controllers use the actual Screen/hardward part from your existing Switch with all of its game saves and your Animal Crossing island. The screen/hardware is the same. Then sell/give your blue/red or grey controller and dock with Switch to a gamer in need.

    I got the last one in stock at the time some cities away. It works really good and the design was phenomenal. I loved the colors and had no issues with the joycons or screen. The battery life was significantly better than the version one I previously had.

    It's essentially a switch but in an awesome animal crossing color and neat dock. Nice surprise is you get an in game version of the same switch when playing animal crossing. Emmy wife is really happy with it. I'm glad they decided to make and release more.

    This is the best special edition switch you can get. I jumped at the opportunity to preorder this and haven't put it down since I got it. The colors and designs on the switch and dock are amazing and are one of the most beautiful special edition consoles I've ever seen

    I personally waited two years to buy a switch because I knew at one point or another an animal crossing themed one would arrive. Basically it’s the same as any other switch besides the design. Of course the 32 GBs is kind of a bummer but you can always use a SIM card.

    My wife loved the Switch even though she doesn't game much. Animal Crossing was a great entry to the Switch for her and the Special Edition was the topping on the cake. Wish it came with the game though. Buying the game separate was anti-climatic.

    Great console works well I really love it. I really love the mobile ability to bring it wherever I want. The only thing I wish was different would be the storage it fills so quickly, I had to purchase a SIM a week after I got the switch.

    I love the Animal Crossing design on the switch. It is super cute and perfect if you love Animal Crossing. I am a bit nervous about the Joycon drift that'll eventually happen, so I'll be purchasing the procontroller. I can't get over how cute it is

    My sister loved it! Really cute colors and really great design! I have a normal red and blue switch, so I know for a fact this works 100%! 11/10 would recommend if you love Animal Crossing or are just looking to have lighter colors to show!

    Easy to set up and use. Special edition console do not come with the game they represent. The graphics are very nice. I'm not a Nintendo user so I struggle through finding things but it's doable. Contains everything you need to get started.

    I thought this limited edition console sold out immediately when it was first released. Then I saw a listing on Best Buy’s site and it was listed at MSRP. I jumped on that sucker pretty quick and picked it up a couple of days later at my local store. At a time when all consoles are hard to come by I’m glad that I was able to get the one my wife wanted. The system itself is exactly what I expected, having owned several Switch consoles in the past. This console is the version 2 hardware with the longer battery life due to a less power hungry CPU. I love when Nintendo releases different color systems or limited edition systems. It makes it easier to tell which one belongs to each person in the family. Now if they would just release more pro controller color options…
