    A wonderful game console with the perfect level of portability. The ease of moving it from Consol to portability is spot on. I didn’t think I’d be a fan of the included controllers buddy actually work well with the adapter. Haven’t found it necessary to purchase any other controllers as this works just fine.

    "Coronavirus Quarantine Purchase". Haven't played it much, I've yet to see what the hype is all about. Is it that much better than the Wii U? We'll see! Item was shipped and delivered on time. Would recommend to anyone interested in buying.

    My son chose this for a graduation gift. He loves it, and prefers playing on it more than his computer. The games are a lot of fun, I got to demo several. Being able to play on a television is an awesome option. Thinking about getting one for the rest of the family.

    Console gaming on the go

    For years, people have wanted to be able to take console-quality gaming on the go, and the Switch finally achieves what no one else (including Nintendo) has been able to do before. The launch library is on the slim side, but with games like The Legend of Zelda and Mario Kart out in the first few months, there's enough to keep you busy for hours!

    The kids won't put it down. Another great Nintendo product. Only downside is they now charge for online play like other systems.

    I grew up playing the SNES, N64, GameCube and Wii, and the Nintendo Switch reminded me why I loved Nintendo systems. The option to use the Switch as a portable system or a console connected to a TV, along with the various controller options make it a verstaile, and entertaining system with excellent game selections.

    Very fun console for the whole family. Picked this Switch up for my nephews to enjoy. I also have my own Switch that I have owned since launch. These consoles have lots of unique titles to play. If you are looking for a portable/home console, look no further.

    As a gaming console it doesn't stand up to the PS4 or Xbox in terms of graphics, however that's okay because it makes the developers use more interesting and artistic styles. Just look at breath of the wild or Octopath Traveler. As a mobile gaming system it rocks with solid battery life and a wide assortment of control methods.

    As a primarily PC player, I find most console interfaces to be cluttered and hard to navigate. The Nintendo Switch is super easy to use and gives me freedom of handheld or to play on my TV. Definitely recommended for someone who wants console freedom without all the confusion that comes with.

    I have been a Nintendo fan since I received a N64 back in 1999. I have purchased every Nintendo system since, even the somewhat disappointing WiiU. This system is fantastic. It is so versatile and is a huge step up from the Wii and WiiU. It is small and compact, but it is powerful and has a lot of fantastic games on it.
