    It is very portable and offer different option to play. You can play on TV also in your hand. You can connect with another people remote. It is amazing.

    Nintendo Switch is one of my favorite nintendo gaming systems so far! The ability to take with you on the go and play at home brings so much flexibility! The system feels durable and controls are responsive. There are many titles to choose from. The only downside is the battery life. You would have to buy a battery pack or be conservative with your portable gaming. Some games drain the battery a lot faster than others. System settings are your best friend for longer battery life. Otherwise it’s a great nintendo system, great quality, a lot of games. Very much recommended!

    Obviously this was one of the luckiest purchases I made recently. I got it for a friend who had been on the hunt for one since quarantine started. From what they've told me, they absolutely love it and were so thrilled when they found out. They've had no issues with joy-con drift (so far) and the games they've played/dowloaded have worked well. They've commented that they definitely purchased an SD card to expand the system's memory because they were concerned the 32GB was not going to last long. Overall, she ranks it 5/5.

    I don’t use my switch every day, I’ve had it for over a year now, however when I do use it, it’s fun and I definitely have built up my share of accessories and gaming library over the past 14 months. It’s easy to pick up and play, and just as easy to settle in with and hook up to the tv for endless entertainment. Definitely aimed at younger crowds, but you can find more mature themed games they just aren’t as prolific on the new gen consoles like Xbox and ps5, but the portability and fun factor is a 5/5.

    I spent over a year trying to decide if it would be "worth it" and let me just say, yes: it is worth it. I didn't grow up gaming, so this is my first real interaction with gaming and it's such a fun introduction. Going back and forth between handheld and using it on my tv is a dream. Seems silly to write a review on a product where there's really no alternative, but yes; this is a great console, and speaking as someone who has little experience with gaming, a great console to start with!

    The nintendo switch is a good combination on a nintendo wii and a nintendo wii U. Is a masterpiece on behalf of nintendo. If you purchase this console try to buy Mario odyssey for a good Mario gameplay and Ring fit for good exercise.

    My kids waited all pandemic for A switch to be available. They’ve enjoyed it immensely. The only problem school has started so they can’t play as much as they did in the summer. There are a lot of family friendly group games.

    The switch itself speaks for itself. It's the most sought after console for a reason. This review is for Best Buy, being a no nonsense place to buy this console, as they don't price gouge like other game related stop retailers.

    Great Handheld Gaming Console

    A Nintendo switch has been great for our family as we travel a lot and it's provided entertainment with minimal equipment needed to operate. The ability to project the Nintendo switch through the handheld as well as the tv is a great variety. The ability to have up to 4 players on most games allows for more people to be involved and feel less out of it.
