    It was a perfect Christmas gift for my son and he absolutely loves it. The only problem was I needed new controllers after a few months.

    The system works as well as advertised regarding its versatility. It smoothly transitions between the two modes. It is fantastic to play Zelda on the TV then get up and seamlessly take the Switch out of the dock and continue playing in hand-held mode while commuting.

    Went through four days to try to get a switch. Woke up every time when the alert sounded but failed multiple times! Finally got one a few weeks before, and it is perfect! Having lots of fun with friends when playing together!

    I bought this as a gift for my son as it's what he said he wanted for his birthday (age 24). It was more than I had intended on spending but he has on multiple occasions told me how much he loves it so I would say it's a win.

    Nintendo Switch Best Handheld Console Ever Made

    I saw the Nintendo Switch Presentation in January. I was blown away by how amazing the graphics are for a portable handheld. They wow'd me with Super Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2. What made me hunger for the system was knowing Breath of the Wild was the launch title. I stood up until 2 am when Bestbuy let me preorder and did so. I received it a day early and played Zelda until my eyes started bleeding. The first year line up is worth the money. This system in its first year has made me buy more games than I did on my Wii U. The biggest issue with the system is the pro controller is expensive but it's worth it.

    Bought this, unsure of whether or not I'd really get back into handheld gaming. Glad I did. Very rarely do I go places where I'm not the driver, but it's nice to be able to delve into a game again without being restricted to my home. Perfect for Kids and car rides.

    Brought back some good memories from when I was a child and played Mario cart and such. The controls have good battery along with the device its self. It's nice having a handheld and also an option to set it up on the tv. Good game selection as well. The only thing I would change is the price of all of the accessories.

    I thoroughly regret not getting this when it came out. I’m late to the party but there’s enough games out for it now I decided to give it a shot and i have to say I love this thing. So versatile... and you forget how great all the Nintendo games are... I grew up playing a lot of the original versions of the games that are out now. Super smash bros. Mario cart etc... believe me they have only gotten better with time. I just picked up breath of the wild today and I can already tell... I’m going to spend a lot of time playing that game on this console.

    Best Nintendo System since SNES

    Perfect blend of gimmick, power, graphics and accessories to launch a system. Once the Virtual Console is released, it will be one of the best systems on the market, even though it's not as powerful as the PS4 or XB1. The games are fun, that's what matters!

    Bought this as a second console for the household because sharing the other one was starting to become challenging. The color is actually pretty slick and cool. It feels sturdier and slightly better constructed than the original system that we purchased two years ago. We LOVE the Switch and play it almost daily. The flexibility of playing handheld and easily switching to playing on a television is excellent, and the app store has some pretty interesting title.
