    The Nintendo Switch is unlike any console on the market. It's really one of those things you need to try for yourself to understand the feeling. But something about it just makes you happy. The portability of it is awesome. As a college student, nothing is better than playing it in my dorm and then taking it on the go when I go to class. Though it's not to practical to walk around with it in crowds, the quickness of just a button tap puts it to sleep or wakes it up, and within a seconds you're back to playing where you left off no matter where you are. Its the grab and go that makes it so appealing to me. When more games come out (yeah the launch was a little weak in the games department) I'm sure I'll appreciate the "passing of the Joy-Con for some local multiplayer fun" a whole lot. Just the idea that theconsole technically has two controllers out of the box is pretty awesome. And though some hate on Nintendo's idea of launching with few titles, I think it's smart because it fleshes out the releases of big titles to every few months which allows you to enjoy each title for an adequate amount of time instead of throwing them all in your face at once. Plus, it keeps the console exciting instead of having to wait long periods of time before the next big hit. Nintendo really did right with this console this time around. Other than their production (which they claim to be doubling in the coming months), I think Nintendo learned from their past mistakes with the Switch. If you're looking for a fun new game platform for yourself or your family, definitely pick up the Switch.

    Performance wise it lags a lot. I like it, but honestly I could’ve went without it. I’ve always wanted one and now that I finally got one I don’t even use it. Maybe I just have to get more games or something for it. But I do watch YouTube on it, so that’s cool.

    Better battery life for a portable console is always good news, so this is definitely the model of the Nintendo Switch you should be looking for.
