Skyrim, a game that has won many awards and been played by millions, now can go with you anywhere on the Nintendo Switch; the graphics look great, and the motion controls feel good. Highly recommend this to anyone who hasn't played before, or has buts wants to be able to take it literally anywhere and have the enhanced looks the remastering of this game offers.

This game is 6 years old, but still manages to captivate me for hours on end. Having this game on the switch is super convenient, because I can play during long road trips and airplanes, but also play at home on a big screen. This is one of my favorite games, and totally recommend it.

This game is pretty impressive. I never played the elder of scrolls series before but I easily got into the story of this game. The world is pretty huge. It has some minor glitches but the world of skyrim is beautiful. The level up system is pretty great overall. I wish one day it can use the mods like other platforms but I don't think it's going to happen.

For those wondering: look at Animal Crossing on your phone. Now look at New Leaf on the 3ds. THIS is the difference in resolution between Skyrim on the PC vs Switch. To heck with the anti-hype videos, they're just trying to get you on clickbait.
Still functionally the same, and after a few hours of playing SKYRIM ON A PORTABLE SYSTEM, I don't even notice the resolution. Seriously. Only time i was aware of it was when i tried playing it on my 55" tv. This was a bad idea.
Functionally running the same as the special edition running on a 360. Which, really - and I'll say it again for emphasis - this is Skyrim on portable hardware

I never played Skyrim when it came out so after playing Zelda Breath of the Wild on the Switch I knew the potential of having an epic open world adventure in the palm of my hands. And man, Skyrim delivers on the Switch! Graphics still look great, haven't noticed any performance issues, and the world of Skyrim is enormous! Must buy for any Switch owner!

Skyrim on the go

It's Skyrim, most people know this game is great. I will say this version of Skyrim and it's selling point is that it's portable. The graphics are good, I would say it looks like a downgraded Special edition and does look better than I remember it looking on PS3.
I think it performs great in handheld an tabletop mode.
The only draw back I would say is the $60 price point for what is a 6 year old game. If you can get it for under the full retail price grab it. If you've played before on PS4. XB1, or PC, you're getting this to play on the go and understand it's not going to be 60fps and 1080p or higher resolutions.

I never played the previous versions of this game but I definitely wanted to. When I knew Skyrim was coming to the Nintendo Switch it was definitely a selling point.
I have enjoyed playing Skyrim. It is an endless adventure with so much to explore and mess around with.
I believe I was spoiled by Zelda Breath of the Wild because I have noticed that the fighting in this game leaves a lot to be desired. That being said it has a lot to offer in it other qualities.
Overall this game is worth the purchase and has been a lot of fun to play. Again I never played the previous versions so it is entirely new to me.

Great port of Skyrim. I played the Original release on the Xbox 360. Visual updates are on part with the PS4 Version. Plays great and has the Skyrim Jank that we all love. Good for those who want to play it on the go.
