    I purchased this system today. Have to say, im glad i did. I love how it looks, i love the joycons. I was happy to get this when the store only had a couple. I am guessing its version 2, battery is good, seems to download pretty fast. I only have 2 grips with this system. 1: It only has the standard black or white wallpaper theme. For a limited edition item, they could have atleast added a Animal Crossing theme. 2: The switch docking stating is bigger then the other 2 systems. My old switch slid right into it and was firm. This docking station you put the switch in but it jiggles back and forth. I feel like at some point taking it in and out of dock will evenutally break the charging port. Hopefully nintendo will address this

    Honestly a great and cute purchase. Bought this with my boyfriend for curbside pickup and it was ready within the hour (even though in store hours were close.) The man politely brought it out and it was a very safe + fast process. Was in perfect condition and had an adorable bear coated back with the animal crossing logo. The joysticks are a beautiful blue and green color for each side. Comes with helpful instructions and everything you need to easily set it up without issues. Took less than 5 minutes to connect to the tv and play it. Just make sure you have a Nintendo account.

    The switch as we all know is already an amazing gaming device, but then you add that plus the bigger battery because this is the second version of the switch AND it's a cute limited edition... Truly amazing and worth the purchase.

    I waited and waited for this special edition Nintendo Switch to be announced. Back in January of this year, I almost bought a refurbed switch almost exclusively for the new Animal Crossing game. I'm glad I held out! This console is so stinking cute, with a special dock, pastel joycons, and a backplate with a cute little animal crossing pattern on the back! The console is incredibly easy to set up, works like an absolute charm. I am extremely satisfied with this purchase. One gripe - the joycons get marked up pretty easily. If I set them down next to the dock on my black TV stand, they get little gray lines scratched onto them. However, it seems a little wiping with a magic eraser cleans them up just fine.

    Excellent product very cool designs. It was a gift for my wife and she loved it. I could not find this edition anywhere else they were sold out everywhere. One other store had it but at a higher price. I got lucky and found it here and ordered it online for normal retail price of 299 +tax. A lot of people were buying these to resale at a ridiculously higher price. Good thing i didnt buy earlier and found it here at best buy. Highly recommend.

    Best Nintendo Switch Limited Edition by Far

    I love the Nintendo Switch, and I love Animal Crossing so I picked up this Limited Edition Console, and it looks phenomenal. 1. It looks absolutely gorgeous in person, it's really nice. Instead of the glossy texture on the standard Switch and Joycon, it has a matte finish, and the back of the Switch has texture due to the stylish etchings. 2. The Dock seems to have some quality issues, the Switch Console itself jiggles around a little bit too much, I'm not sure if this is specific to this edition of the console, or the 2nd revision of the console, as I own the original Switch. 3. The Dock itself is for me where I give this product a 4 star as my USB Ports aren't functioning properly, and when I've been told I may not get back the Animal Crossing Switch Dock if I send it in for repair, that's really concerning, and I think that should be made aware to anyone who purchases a Nintendo Special Edition Console in the future.

    I love my limited edition Animal Crossing New Horizons Nintendo Switch. I had the regular one, and I just had to have the animal crossing one. I gave my regular one to my husband. Lol. This one is better though. It has a longer battery life than my old switch. I recommend this switch to anyone. It’s a great console and you have a plethora of games to choose from for this system.

    Both 2 of these, one for each of my kids. They love it and play it everyday. Animal crossing is their favorite game. Not bulky, it’s slim and lightweight easy to take along. Cute print

    Love love this! The console itself is so pretty. I love the island visuals on the back of the switch and the different color consoles. The blue and the green are perfect colors and they look great with the black screen. I love playing on it and it feels very nice when holding it.

    For what I expected, this little thing is amazing. Offers hours of fun for the kids. My boys are 8 & 6. No complaints. Will be getting another so they don’t fight over it when we’re on the go.i do suggest buying separate controllers as pictured above.

    Worth EVERY DIME !!! Absolutely this special edition looks great on the shelf it’s how I got my wife to let me buy it. She thought it was really cute. The back of the console is laser etched and it looks great and actually inadvertently provide some grip when playing handheld without a case. I absolutely recommend it! If it’s available up there I say now or never.

    Extremely glad this restocked. If someone were to tell me that this was gonna restock 6 months after the release I would have reclaimed some sleep. I really wanted this because it would be more sentimental, I've known animal crossing since GameCube release, did I play it well? Probably not, I couldn't read at the time but still haha. But the versatility of the switch is very much appreciated for stay at home and on the go gaming. Though, I definitely got a bit on protection. Joycon cases, glass screen protector. My boyfriend got me a travel case and made a dock sock for me. So it's definitely protected. Also got another pair of joycons in case these were to drift

    Bought it for my nephew. He loves the colors. I already have one nintendo switch regular edition and it is pretty great and durable. Wish I indicated that put another package for delivery due to nintendo package was dirty and labeled.
