    Excellent console for portable or home gaming

    The Nintendo Switch offers a fun experience for portable and home gaming. Its main draw is the new Zelda game, which itself is worth buying the console for. I have experienced no issues with the hardware. While the specs may not be as impressive as consoles developed by Sony or Microsoft, personally that never bothered me due to the quality and variety of games released for Nintendo products. Online gameplay has yet to be evaluated, however. Nintendo has shown promise with games from third party developers coming soon. Depending

    Perfect Console? Quite Possibly

    This is the second Switch I have purchased, the first was my own personal unit and this was an early Christmas gift for my partner. With her opinion and my own I think I can comfortably state the Switch is as close to a perfect console as Nintendo has gotten since the Gamecube. A perfect hybrid of home and portable, the Switch offers pleasure for all gamers hardcore or casual. The evergrowing library of games, both Nintendo direct and third party publisher, makes this console a must have.

    My girlfriend loved it but the charge port broke after a month of entirely normal use. Her last one kept going for about two years though so it was just bad luck. Best buy is repairing it for free with the warranty.

    I bought my nintendo switch in December and have been loving it every day. The exclusive games on it are second to none, indie games feel like a perfect fit on the device due to the portability, and now games like Dark Souls Remastered is coming to all consoles at the same time making me feel inclined to get it on the switch as i can easily pick up and play for a few minutes and get back to what I was doing. I highly recommened this to anyone, but most importantly to people with very little time on their hands.

    everyone was telling me how cool the switch is and that i should get it so i did but then i noticed that you cant even go on the internet or download apps like netflix or youtube like other consoles. Not so many games as well. I did get mario kart so its been kind of fun. I really hope super smash bros comes out for the switch and if it does then this will forever be my favorite!!!!

Our 6 yr old daughter even has control already . Great buy great win. We already have a case and ready to link up with out other switch friends

    I was skeptical about buying a Switch when it first came out since I already have a Wii U, and I wasn't sure it was worth the upgrade. Still, I ended up purchasing the Switch along with Just Dance 2018 as a gift for my fiancée. After having it for a few weeks, I can say that I'm happy with my purchase. We play it nearly every night and have a ton of fun with it. I recently bought a couple more games and extra joy-cons to go with it (after trading in some old Wii games), so I definitely felt it was worth it.

    This is the best gaming system I've ever had, bar none, and I've had just about every system you can imagine. This is definitely the future of gaming. Really excited for future iterations and improvements. Stick to this Nintendo because you have a winner on your hands. Good Nintendo games are the best and I simply play with this thing much more than anything else. Zelda BOTH is absolutely fantastic and it's awesome that you can continue the game from anywhere. Just buy the thing, you'll be very pleased with it.

    I love the Nintendo Switch! I have been an avid gamer for years, as my first counsel was the OG Nintendo. I still play on my Xbox but love the new generation Nintendo along with Zelda and MARIO Odessey. It’s just plain fun.

    Finally getting on Nintendo hype train. Love the games which I can play with others. Some really good games are not available across all platforms and that is the only downside I see.

    The switch is a great family console, great for game nights. If you have a small child, I'd suggest the lite, but if you want something that will connect to your TV this is it!

    Love the form factor, docking and removing is a snap, works great portable. Wish battery life was better, but otherwise this thing is fantastic. The game library has quickly become very impressive, with even more great titles sleighed for 2019. If you've ever been a fan of Nintendo, or enjoy gaming on the go, or both, BUY THIS. I personally use it primarily docked to a big TV, but it works just as well in handheld mode. Really fun, innovative console from Nintendo. This is a hit for sure.
