    I bought this for my bro and he's been playing non stop since I bought it for him. The ability to play it on the big screen and on the go is a must and I hope they continue with this feature down the line.

    With the whole pandemic and being quarantined, video gaming in my household is a must. Bought this for my daughter so she can get started playing Animal Crossings with her friends. Not sure how I was able to score this as all major consoles are selling out fast. Can't beat Nintendo's quality on their consoles as well.

    I last played a Gameboy Color 20 years ago. My nieces got one of these for Christmas 2022 and were showing me how to play it and I felt the urge to get one for myself so I did. I don’t regret it.

    We recently purchased this system to provide us with some entertainment during the stay-at-home orders are in place. This is the first game console that I've owned, so I don't have anything to compare it too, but I like how small and unobtrusive it is and the Nintendo games are super fun, particularly the active movement games.

    I love that you canplay the old ninentdo games on it. I wish the controller was different though. Idon't like how small it is when you are playing a 2 player game.

    Like the NES was to me, the switch will be to my kids. Starting off properly with Mario and jumping into the universe of gaming the games are fun and inventive like it's predecessors. For me, I'm having as much fun as ever. Dusting off the nostalgia and going into new types of games. Highly recommend for the family.

    Bottom Line: the Nintendo Switch offers tons of fun... if you can get your hands on one. Pros: tons of great first and third party games, versatile play modes (handheld, tabletop, TV) and overall just a fun gaming system Cons: hardware not as powerful as other consoles in the generation, currently hard to find Review: Since we’ve been home due to the pandemic, I’ve been looking to game with my five year old. Unfortunately, there aren’t many games I’ve found on the other consoles that are accessible enough for her to play. So, after months of trying to get a Switch, I lucked out during a Best Buy restock and ordered one. So far, the Switch hasn’t disappointed. My daughter and I have been playing Mario Kart, and the single Joycon makes a great controller for her small hands. The auto accelerate (easy mode) also means she’s just in charge of steering, and it’s been a ton of fun playing. I also picked up Link’s Awakening to play by myself. The game is a fantastic remake of the classic GameBoy original, although I do notice the hardware struggles sometimes to keep up with some of the action on-screen.

    I've had no problem with any switch I've bought for my kids so I had no issue getting this for my 14-year-old.

    After trying for a few months to get a switch, I was able to snag one and I love it! I play the switch mostly handheld and the battery life on it lasts a good 5-6 hours with LOZ Breath of the Wild and lasts longer with Animal Crossing. It definitely has been entertaining playing it and has killed my boredom at home.

    I love this so much! It's the perfect gaming system for the gamer on the move. The graphics are great and I love that I can take it with me anytime I go out and about. As someone that doesn't spend a lot of time at home, this was a big factor for me regarding whether or not i took the plunge buying this new system. 7 months later and I am still playing it for an hour or two per day!

    Nintendo's New Console is Fantastic

    While it isn't the most powerful console on the market, it does a lot of things very well. It is readily portable, strong enough to have some great looking games on it, and most importantly: it plays Nintendo's library of games. Highly recommended to any gamer who wants a console that is a console first and foremost, rather than trying to be everything at once like other systems do.
