    The Nintendo Switch is great! I bought this item for my sibling with special needs and it has completely changed many things for us as a family. It is portable and easy to follow instructions. The visuals are great on the TV or handheld version.

    I love the Nintendo Switch. I purchased Super Mario Odyssey and Legend of Zelda Breath of The Wild with it. Both games are also incredibly fun. I love the ability to dock the switch to play games on my tv and the ability to take it off the dock and go handheld to play on the go. Best console purchase this year!

    Bought the system for my kids, but I think I’m playing it more than they are LOL. As a parent, I appreciate that my kids can take this system with them in the car on long road trips, and have the versatility of using it on the living room TV also. If you have gamer children, you can’t go wrong with this system.

    I remember getting a gamecube way back when I was a kid I loved playing Mario party and all the other games on I never bought a Wii U when it came out but owned a Wii what I love about the switch is that it’s portable and you can take your games anywhere

    So fun and easy to use... love that it's both playable on my tv as well as handheld and portable. Happy that I was finally able to purchase one from Best Buy in the time of covid... was worried I wouldn't get one until 2021, but Best Buy saved the day!!

    I've been on the fence about getting a Switch since it's announcement. It was simply too good to be true. Now the I have it, it's everything I hoped for! A worthwile buy for a current gamer or a lapsed one like myself. The only con is battery. And that is forgivable because it is the perfect size and weight!

    We've been holding on buying a Switch for a while, wish we would have bought sooner! Graphics are not great, but heck of a lot better than the Wii. Games are fun, plus we love that there are several different controller configurations/accessories.

    Great console, minor quirks

    Great console. Lot’s of fun games, beautiful graphics and sound, love that I can play on the big screen or in my hands on the couch, favorite feature is the forgiving USB game pad compatibility. Can’t believe I can use a Sega Genesis USB controller with it. Online service is only $20 a year which seems very reasonable. Minor downsides: No Bluetooth audio. Awkward removing joycons when docked. Awkward plugging in USB gamepads to dock. Not enough USB ports. Bad Ergonomics in handheld mode. Overpriced 1st party accessories. Final thoughts, I get it, graphics not as good as PS4 or XBox One, but ask yourself if you care, when you’re getting a hybrid portable/tv console with games focused on fun.

    My daughter has been wanting this since Christmas last year. She was beyond thrilled to get it for her 9th birthday. She was so sad she couldn't have the "usual" friend birthday party, but this lessened the sting considerably! We are all having fun with it.

    The Nintendo Switch was a Christmas present for our granddaughters. They really love this unit and the games we supplied. We also got and extra controller so they both have one for 2-player games. I'm not a gamer, but I found this unit easy to use and a super game unit.
