    Easy to work, lots of fun. Definitely challenging sometimes. You should try it yourself.

    The Switch continues to surprise me. Temper your expectations and realize Nintendo isn’t out to compete with Sony or Microsoft. Nintendo walks its own path and those 3rd parties who are taking risks with bring software to Switch are reaping their rewards. Not a half baked attempt but a full pledge in making games. Skyrim is remarkable on Switch in that I can continue on the go and resume on the big screen.

    This is a fantastic title for the Nintendo Switch. The graphics are as good as it was on any other console and the controls are too. I've put hours into this and haven't seen any slowdown in framerate. It plays great as a portable title and definitely one that will keep you occupied for hours and days.... By far my favorite title for the Switch and a perfect title to showcase what the Switch can really do!

    I'd never played these games before. I tried Oblivion for a few hours but didn't like the character design and fighting felt clunky so gave up. This one is way better. The opening was fun. The portability is great - no hiccups. The motion control is great for bows. Quick save just adds to the nice pick up and play feel of this game. Excited to finally play this game. Graphics look good to me as well.

    Skyrim is a wonderful game and I highly recommend the new downloadable content! It changes up the game wonderfully and adds new quests and items.

    Sure it’s the same glitches and exploits you’ve seen on console and pc but we can finally play TES V pretty much everywhere without a bulky set up. Unfortunately the rendering is terrible but it feels like a Monty python film. Plus you have a chance to get great loot from your amiibos with the new power.

    My kids (6 and 8) could play this game non-stop. If you want them to actually SOLVE the problems, only expect them to solve the first 5 before they just start clipping each other to bits. When that happens, show them the PvP portion of the game where that's the GOAL...Then...They'll fall in love. For the record, my wife and I have actually gone through the whole game solving the puzzles.

    I was skeptical at first about playing Skyrim again since it’s a 6 year old game. However this is the best way to play all because of the portability. The game looks like a mix between the recently released remastered gane for the Xbox One/PS4 and the original from the Xbox 360/ PS3 era. There are a few hiccups in the game, but overall it’s great to have this game available wherever I go.

    I had doubts about Skyrim being ported to Switch...but no more. Skyrim at launch was a massive game that punished high end desktop systems. To have that game in the palm of your hand is amazing. I have spent more time playing this version than I have on the PC because of the portability. It does eat up the battery fairly quickly so have an external battery for prolonged on the go use.

    No I mean I literally OWN this game on every single console that I have in my house. Why? Because the game is literally a full packaged deal. The Witcher 3 to me is by far the best game ever made, and SkyRim is definitely close 2nd. These are my opinions however, and even though I’m right and you’re wrong most of the time, just play it on the switch and ask me if it is not amazing!

    This game is great in so many ways! So far I have only completed about a handful of quests plus a few side quests, and I just can't wait to play more! I'm not a big time gamer so I'm not as skilled as a lot of you, but it is still fun. The fighting is a little difficult as far as losing your position easily, but that's on me for sucking at the controls, not the games fault!

    Skyrim... You've played it. But, you haven't played it on the go. it's breathtaking being able to sit on an airplane and play such a long, immersive RPG. I love being able to pick up and play for 5 mins, and put the switch to sleep. playing on PC, or another console, it was a much longer process to start playing. Highly recommended if you play your switch on the go.

    Skyrim has more than earned its place as one of the best games of all time. Now, with the added portability of the Switch, you can enjoy it in places where an endless adventure are just what was missing. Don't bother with it on the TV, because the lower resolution definitely doesn't hold up to the PC or even XBO or PS4 versions. But a handheld Skyrim? Awesome!
