    Matches some chairs that I have. Should have a 1080p panel and output on TV at 4k because it's 2020 but oh well.

    Actually this is the second one I got since my kids are always using the other one. Great way to unwind at the end of a day and play some puzzle games or even to just watch Netflix on the big TV that this can connect to or even the screen it comes with. Yes you can connect several together to play some games like Mario Kart.

    Really great on the go gaming. I’ve gone on multiple flights with my switch and spend hours on it at home. However joycon drift started a month or so ago, so I recommend a pro controller for when you’re not using it portable. Also buy a screen protector they scratch real easy when docking

    I have had various video games over the years, ever since receiving Pong as a gift for Christmas one year as a kid. The Nintento Switch is fun, it was easy to connect, and the picture is wonderful. Also love the ability to play either as a console connected to the TV or as an on-the-go handheld.

    I tried to stay away from too much info before buying since I wanted to experience everything first-hand. I love it. The Joy Con feel great, I play with them either in each hand, or with the grip. The entire package is so small, yet still ergonomic. I'm looking forward to plenty more games with this one!

    I would say this has been the most fun I have had on a gaming console in years. It keeps making me want to go back to it and play the Nintendo specific games you can get with it. I usually don't like to pay full price for something but I did for this system and don't regret it. The portability of it is also great since long road trips are in the future for this family.

    Very entertaining for kids. Just the fact that you can sync to other switches and make 2 controls is pretty cool. Was debating about purchasing the lite but noticed that the screen was smaller. Would be nice if Nintendo would add more apps other than Hulu then it would almost replace a tablet.

    Cool consol for all age, fun to play, good games and unlike the Xbox, system updates and game updates only take minutes rather than hours or days.

    I travel quite frequently for work and the Switch really does away with the boring flights. The battery life is not terribly long (around 3 hours), but most of my flights have seats with power plugs, so I use the adapter and play. Its a lightweight and durable console for me to use. Plus its great when plugged into my TV. I am rotating through a few games, and I have been hooked.

    Honestly the most fun console I've owned. I have a PS4 that I've come to use for media only now because playing on it has become dull. The Nintendo switch however has brought such a spark to video gaming! There's free games like Warframe and online membership is only 3.99! I could go on about the pros but basically, there are no cons. Buy one!!

    The switch is an amazing console. We have gotten so much use out of it. I do not think we have went a day without playing it. Well worth the money.
