Switch Version 13.0.0

Sure, it's no PS4 or PS5, but it's an incredible little machine with such incredible versatility in such a tiny package. While it might not have the pure processing power and graphics capability of the other two major systems it does do what Nintendo has done best for a long time, provide a reasonably priced quality portable gaming system. The advantage this time is that the Switch is both a home console and a portable console in one unit. This is something that consoles in general have never really been able to do until now and it's amazing how great the game quality is even in this small form factor. I mean, the Wii was good in the motion control but the gimmick did wear after a bit. The WiiU really felt like a disappointment in that it just didn't bring much to the table and Nintendo clearly wasn't going to be able to compete in the home console market against the other two juggernauts. What Nintendo has always been great at though is dominating the portable gaming market and the switch sees them bringing their expertise in the portable market to the home console market in a power play that really paid off in my opinion. Now, this system does still suffer from some of Nintendo's generally less favorable business practices so do take that in to account. The price for the Switch itself actually isn't that unreasonable so I don't fault them for that whatsoever. The peripherals, on the other hand, really put a dent in the pocketbook if you need to buy anything that didn't come in the box (and you probably will need to at some point, let's be honest). The price of games also comes at a premium just as it has with past Nintendo systems as you will rarely see even older games every discounted or put on sale while such things are very common with the the competing systems. For instances, "Zelda: Link's Awakening", which has roughly 13 to 15 hours of content, will still cost you $60 which is incredibly high for a game that offers so little content with little replay value. Sadly Nintendo has a tendency of doing this and always has so do be prepared to pay premium prices for most games with the Switch. All in all I still think the unit is worth it particularly since you just can't find a better portable gaming platform than this. I definitely recommend getting the Switch over the Switch Lite as those are fully integrated and if you bust an analog stick or a button you're pretty much screwed. With a Switch you can replace the side controllers as you need and we all know controller buttons and analog sticks can wear over time so that alone is worth it. I mean, for $100 more you get a heck of a lot better of a system than you do with a lite so I highly recommend going this route if you're looking in to a Switch.

Literally the title, it's my baby. I take good care of it and it still works with zero problems. I have over 1tb of games on it. It's a great system with amazing games, such as Witcher 3, Skyrim, Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door, Legend of Zelda - Skyward Sword, Gothic I and II, Assassin's Creed 2, 3, 4, and Rogue, and more, Borderlands 1-3, Dragon Quest 11s, etc.

If you look at Nintendo's list of exclusive games and think, "Yeah, I'm all about that", dive in. This is a fun console that offers play on your TV screen or handheld (switch... duh). With multiple controller configuration options including extra peripherals that will make your controller become a steering wheel, a golf club, a fishing pole, and a fitness ring just to name a few, there is a lot of fun and creativity built into Nintendo's latest console. Add to all of this, with a Nintendo Online subscription you get access to tons of free and low cost games. They have included a virtual NES and SNES console with a good selection of classic games. There are also other free games like Tetris 99 and the new Super Mario 35 which are loads of fun. There are also lots of other games that can be had for as little as $2.99 If however you're looking for a console to play the latest cross platform hits, you're probably better off with a PC or one of the next gen gaming consoles. Playing a big cross platform game, you will notice a difference in graphics quality. The Switch only displays in HD, while every other console (and pc) is up to 4K now. Plus the Nintendo controllers, while fun and creative, will not hold up to long term play for something like a FPS. They are fun controllers, and work perfectly for the Nintendo games, but they feel like they would ultimately break after a few serious button mashing sessions. If you've seen all the drama about controller drift, you now know why. Bottom line is if you're all about Nintendo exclusives like Mario, Zelda, Animal Crossing, Metroid? (please?), get this console. It will provide a great deal of entertainment. If you're trying to play the big gaming hits available across all consoles and PC, there are better options.

Compré esta Nintendo Switch y ha superado mis expectativas. La configuración fue rápida y sencilla, la pantalla tiene muy buena calidad y los controles son cómodos de usar. Me encanta que se puede jugar tanto en la televisión como en modo portátil, lo que la hace muy versátil. La batería dura varias horas dependiendo del juego y la consola funciona de manera fluida. Los colores Neon Blue y Neon Red se ven muy bonitos en persona. Es una excelente opción tanto para niños como para adultos que disfrutan de los videojuegos. Después de usarla, definitivamente la recomendaría a cualquier persona que busque una consola divertida y fácil de usar.

Best console I ever purchased. It's super convenient because of its size, and if you want to play on a larger screen, you can connect to your t.v. As someone who is always traveling, it is the best thing to get if you like gaming on the go. I also like how the controls arent too complicated and easy to use.

Highly recommend

Exactly as advertised. My kids love it

I knew people who owned the Switch were seemingly all very happy with it, and I planned on getting one at some point. When Pokemon moved to the Switch, "some point" became "right now". Nintendo likes to make their consoles unique. The DS Lite had two screens, a touch screen, and a microphone that were all used to make the experience unique. The 3DS, The Wii, and Wii U also had their own interesting elements. At times, it just felt gimmicky. The Switch on the other hand, doesn't feel that way at all. It's the gaming equivalent of a laptop with a docking station. You can have the TV experience like any other console, which is also great for party games. Then you can take it with you. This is basically THE go to gaming device for plane rides. The joycons are also genius. It is just incredibly versatile. I'm pleased that it has USB C. The Dock is easy to connect to as it literally just drops in place. I do think it could use more apps. it pretty much only has Hulu and YouTube at the time of this review, if I'm remembering correctly. I am a bit of a geek so I have plenty of other devices to watch on, but if it wants to compete with some of the other devices, it would be nice to have the option of watching Netflix, for example. I remember when the Wii first came out, and you'd go play the sports games with whoever had one. The novelty wore off before long. The Switch however, is here to stay. Brilliant device

I have been a Nintendo fan ever since I was very young and have probably played games on every console that has been released by them but I must honestly say that these are some of the funnest games that I have ever played on a Nintendo console before. I have large hands and thought at first that the JoyCons might be too awkward as there were several people complain about this. It turns out, the JoyCons fit in my hands comfortably (even when horizontal) and had an insane amount of fun with my friend. The games on the surface might seem expensive but when you think about it, are exactly the same as every other console. Most of the games only require one copy of the game and only one console to play the game with a friend. This is the first time this was ever possible with a portable console (to the best of my knowledge). With the 3ds (Ds, Gameboy, etc.) you had to buy two copies of the consoles and two copies of each game (unless it had download play, but it was usually very limited), You would have to buy two copies of $40 to be able to play together and that right there costs $80. Some DS games were $50 and you needed two copies for multiplayer and that would cost $100. Not all the games on Switch are $80. There's a lot of fun ones in the $30-49 range. The games I would recommend are: Super Smash Ultimate - a lot of content and is the best Super Smash Bros. I have played Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - More modes and tracks than any other released Mario Kart FNAF Core Collection - Lots of fun and really scary lol, I wouldn't recommend this game for little kids though. Sonic Mania Plus - Best Sonic Game on the Switch and is one of my favorite Sonic games I have ever played. Snow Runner - I got it on sale and you might be able to as well. It's relaxed and slow-paced but cool game and it's difficult. The game is realistic as well and the graphics are pretty good! All in all, I would recommend this console.

Been almost a year since i got it, i enjoy playing with it and no issues so far! Pretty worth it, bought it with a friend when it was on sale!

Bought from theGameCaveEgypt. Working well.

Great little thing that kept me entertained on flights. Delivery time was slow but it's definitely worth it considering everybody else was selling the older version. Now I just want a bigger game library!

Desde 2021, esta ha sido, para mí, una consola súper versátil y divertida. Puedes jugar tanto en la TV como en modo portátil, lo que la hace perfecta para cualquier momento. Sigue teniendo buen rendimiento en su batería.
