    Haven’t gotten a new console since the wii and this was great to set up with a tv screen. Also enjoy the handheld option. Quarantine essential!

    This is a great little portable console. I have played about 10 hours hand held, and about 10 docked to my PC monitor. I think I prefer the big screen, but having the ability to take it with me on trips is a huge plus. First, buy an SD card that is 64 GB or larger. The built in storage is a little small. After two game purchases (digital) I was out of space. And to move a game to an SD you have to ARCHIVE it and download again. Ugh. That was 4+ hours of downloads to move the games. I only have three games right now, but all of them are way better than anything Nintendo has ever produced. The quality is way up there for such a small machine. There are a LOT of indie game titles on Switch already, and many more coming. This is why I bought the machine. I love to support these indie titles, and having a console to play them on is great.

    I decided that I really wanted a Nintendo Switch, in the middle of a global pandemic, where millions and millions of people are working from home/learning virtually, trying to entertain themselves and/or their kids, right after Animal Kingdom: New Horizons dropped. I tried Best Buy, Target, Walmart, Amazon, eBay, GameStop, NewEgg, OfferUp, Facebook Marketplace, literally everywhere, and I continued to hit dead ends. I even had friends in other states that were willing to pick it up near them and ship me it (I live in Jersey so most stores were either closed like GameStop the day after Animal Kingdom dropped or are curbside only, which wasn't easy either since they were literally sold out everywhere). After like 45 phone calls to different stores/supports, numerous people trying to scam me on OfferUp, 3 in store visits and absolutely refusing to pay $600 for a $300 device, I somehow got in touch with a literal angel from BestBuy Support, who somehow tracked one down for me. And it was even in the color I wanted. I was told it wouldn't get to my house until between April 22nd to April 27th (purchased on April 3rd), but it got delivered by April 10th. I've had no issues at all, BestBuy Support was phenomenal, and I am on it just about any free second I have from work and graduate school.
