    I bought this for my son's Christmas gift. The unit was sold out (and i mean everywhere), and i couldn't find one until I went to BestBuy's site and purchased it with the pickup option. It was fast and easy to order online, and best of all I wasn't disappointed. Pick up was also a breeze and we can't wait to open up the gift on Christmas!

    I bought this as a gift for my older daughter because I received one last year and we all love it. I'm not a die-hard gamer, I've never owned an X Box or PlayStation, and the only computer games I play can be easily played on older equipment That said, the games available for the Switch are right up my alley. I am a casual gamer, playing only when I have free time after work. That usually means after dinner when everyone else has gone to bed and I get an hour or two to myself. The games available for the Switch are perfect for people like me. The definition and resolution are good, the game play is fun, and you can play with up to 4 people depending on which game you're playing. Speaking of games, I have a few Mario games, Mario Cart, Mario's Odyssey, and Rabbid something or other. My favorite game is an older title that was ported to the Switch, Skyrim. The Switch makes it easy to play these games. The switch comes with two controllers and a base station. You can purchase more controllers and an extra base station if you want. It doesn't come with much internal memory so I do recommend purchasing a large (128Gb or larger) SD card. I also recommend buying an HDMI cable at least 6 feet long. Other than that, buy a few games and enjoy yourself!

    I bought this for my 8 year old son and he is completely in love with the product. Not only because it’s portable, but it also gives him the ability to use internet when WIFI is available in that way he doesn’t need to carry his tablet as well. This item is very well design and it’s also lightweight. We love it because we can even play together.

    A full-fledged console that happens to be portable

    I'll be upfront and blunt: the only reason to buy one of these right now is for Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Owning a Switch without that game, as of now, would be a mistake. BUT - After sinking a hundred or more hours into this system via Z:BotW, I am absolutely blown away at the capability of this device. The graphics this thing outputs (again, solely based on playing Zelda) are fantastic considering it's gotta be around 1/10th the size of a PS4, or smaller! In handheld mode, Zelda runs locked at 30fps in 720p resolution, which looks gorgeous in your hands. When docked, the resolution is higher, things look crisp on TV, and lighting and shadows are spectacular. Regarding ergonimics - WOW! I have a PS Vita that I never use because the buttons are so tiny and close to the edge that my hands cramped. None of that happens with the Switch! The joycons (the default, provided controllers) are small, but the buttons and thumbsticks are better placed to avoid painful cramps. I didn't expect to WANT to use this a portable device, but considering how much comfortable it is to use it, I look forward to the opportunities! Baseline - If you want to play Zelda, this is absolutely a device worth buying. If you're not interested in that, I'd recommend waiting. Mario Kart, Splatoon, and other Nintendo staples are on their way, and there's quite a bit of indie support on its way, too.

    I love having a switch, downside is the menu options aren’t as easy as I’d like but attaching to the tv and charger are east!

    My kids love it. It seems that Nintendo finally got it right. They made a good console Wii and then they went to a strange form factor discovering mobile and home gaming with Wii U. Switch is the post research product and they have made a very simple and versatile product. It works on the dock, as a mobile gaming device and with the kickstand where ever you go.
