    If you love games or gaming in general, this is the console for you. I love the switch, and would recommend everyone get it for fun family time. If you plan on playing mostly or solely in handheld mode, you should just get the lite, but if you rather have that one inch like i did just get this version. I have nothing bad to say, treat yourself, you deserve it! Please get a case, your switch may have an accident and you will end up with a broken broke a joy-con, a case would’ve kept them safe.

    Ease of setting up, ease of use, price a little high, and hard to find any in stock. For over 6 months I could not find a switch game console, finally found a supply at Best Buy. Bought for wife, she loves it. Happy wife, Happy life.

    Just before Christmas I picked up a Switch for the family. It’s been about two weeks and we are all in love with it. My wife, daughter, and I love playing Breath of the Wild. My son is obsessed with Mario Kart. The flexibility to play it on the go, in bed, or on the couch on our 4K set is awesome. The multiplayer options are so much fun. Let me put it this way, we’re already planning on buying a second one in a few months. My only complaints are: * the kickstand on the back is flimsy * games are a bit too expensive - Skyrim is $60, while it’s around $20 on every other console/PC. Portal Knights is $30, while it was $5 for my iPad.

    What a great system! Nintendo has been around for a long time, and this is such an improvement over their other handhelds. It works phenomenal and it has great picture for a handheld system. It has no problem keeping up with any games run on it. Very handy for Mario Kart and other games. The battery lasts quite a while too on a single charge. You can also watch Hulu and other streaming services on it too which is great for traveling.

    The one I got the day they came out had the battery swell up and I didn't feel it was safe anymore. Got another to replace it. Use it 99.9% as a console for my 83" OLED TV. Plays my Links great! Use it with a Pro controller.

    My son loves his Nintendo Switch. I knew that this console wouldn't go on sale for Black Friday and so I paid full price and got it for him before everyone else bought them all up for Christmas. It has some of the best graphics for a portable device. Nice pick-up for your gaming needs.

    This may not be the perfect gift for a kid who craves COD, Halo, Uncharted, Assassins Creed, etc. BUT it is a great console for Nintendo games. I also highly recommend this console to anyone in the age range of 25-35 as it brings back that nostalgia feel with great retro games updated.

    The switch offered a variety of games the whole family can partake in. It’s great if you want to get engaged with your kids and do something fun. Definitely worth it while this whole Covid deal has everyone limited on things to do.

    I wasn't sure why everyone liked this at first, but it is a very versatile platform. Our TV doesn't have HDMI, so we used the dock with a computer monitor and routed sound from the audio jack to an external speaker. Graphics are great, and this is very portable, even with the dock.

    Hard to review something you will never play, but my daughter loves it, and Best Buy has the best deal out there. Package came with the newer model Switch with the longer battery life and two games. Couldn’t find a better deal anywhere else. Thanks

    After waiting months for this to come back in stock, we made the purchase and we’re not disappointed. It’s fun for everyone, even those who aren’t very skilled at video games. There are games for every type of gamer too. Very fun!
