    The console itself is very nice. It's completely portable which is a unique feature. The controllers are very small and may feel cramped to some users. My biggest issue is that there are very few games available.

    Nintendo has hit it out of the park with the switch. Whole new gaming experience the kids love. Took a while to get one but well worth it.

    Honestly, at first, I bought a Switch just so I could have one. They were so hard to find, and I wanted to be the cool kid on the block. But, Zelda is amazing. And all the other games that are set to come out are also very exciting. I know people aren't as crazy about Nintendo as they used to be, but I think they're really going to do their best with this system.

    I had been wanting to purchase a Nintendo Switch ever since they came out. With restrictions in place due to COVID-19, I’m in the house more often now and I need something to keep me preoccupied. It was worth every penny and the service I received when I picked it up was even better.

    Switch, great new console 2 in 1 home & handheld!

    The Switch is a great new console 2 in 1, home console and handheld. I mainly use it with the dock at home on the big screen. I can see how it would be great for kids so they can play play a game without hogging the main TV and still all be in the same family room. The best thing about this console is the load time, instant boots right up where you last left off.

    The portability is key! My son just grabs it from the docking station and away he goes. Battery life on the handheld isn’t the best, but car chargers make it manageable for longer trips. Seems durable as it’s been dropped many times. They do nickel and dime you on the extras. Extra controller $80, extra dock $40, SD card for storage, $70....etc etc.
