    It is the Nintendo Switch! You know what this is. Great product. If your joycons start drifting, call Nintendo and they'll fix them.

    Portable Entertainment but not Next Gen

    It's Nintendo. They usually try new hardware gimmicks and ignore the pixels. Same is true for this round. This time it's the portability of the device and the fact that all the games play the same whether connected to a big screen or playing in your hands on the road. Very small game catalog but it has the typical line up of Zelda, Mario Kart, and other mascots. Multiplayer is still non-existent unless its local on the same screen so don't expect to hook it up and connect with your friends online easily. Nintendo mentions that a phone app will soon be needed to voice chat in games which means they have no clue how in-game social experiences work. Remember it is meant to be portable so the graphics will not be near as good as the existing offerings from Sony or MS. However this system could easily be a DS replacement with the right mind set.

    Just the system. Kids enjoyed. Games can’t always be shared, but that’s an internal issue. Nintendo hooks up to the tv easily.

    Great Family Gaming Console

    Great family gaming console. If you have kids and want to play with them, this is a great option that works for all ages, probably 5-college. The downside is it comes with 1 full controller that can be made into 2 separate controllers for some games. Should come with 2 full controllers for the price.

    Bought as my secondary console

    I preordered a Switch with the intention of making it my secondary console. And it was while Breath of the Wild was the only major title for it. It’s quickly taken the title of primary console from my Xbox. The only cons at this point seem to be that Nintendo is clueless on voice chat and cloud storage—things you would generally expect in 2017. It makes up for it with portability and classic Nintendo polish.

    Can't compete

    I can understand owning a switch if Nintendo makes your favorite games. Fun factor is certainly a top concern, if not the top concern, in gaming. However, the switch has nowhere near the horsepower of the PS4 and Xbox one. Because of this, the switch has nowhere near the 3rd party support of its competitors. Many game developers want to showcase their games on a platform where it will run and look the best. The switch is clearly not that platform. Taking console quality games on the go is a nice gimmick, but Nintendo's competitors are about to redefine "console quality" with the releases of the ps5 and series x. Gamers need to be cognizant of this when Nintendo cannot even currently compete from a technical standpoint.

    We picked up our Nintendo Switch and Breath of the Wild before we went on vacation. There is something special about sitting on a balcony on vacation, playing Zelda, listening to the ocean, with a glass of wine - that really makes for a great experience. Now keep in mind that the Nintendo Switch is fun gaming platform regardless of the location - but It was extra fun to take on vacation!

    The game system is so universal and we can use it in so many different places. There are adult games, child games and most they can play together! I gave 4 stars because for as expensive as the controllers are, the connections seem fragile.

    While I have to say I was a little hesitant to purchase the Switch I quickly changed my mind after 1 hour of play time. The handheld is light, has great battery life and does not tire after holding it up for hours. The controllers are also easy to attach to their grip or to the handheld. Needless to say I recommend this purchase especially since Nintendo will be releasing games a lot sooner than the other consoles.
