Nintendo Switch
It switches like magic! One second, you're using Nintendo Switch as a home console, and the next you're taking it with you as a portable system. It's totally awesome no matter which way you use it.
HD to handheld
When used as a home console, the Nintendo Switch lets you play a great range of cool games in immersive HD. If you wish to use it in handheld mode, the experience is still pretty stunning thanks to a multi-touch capacitive touch screen which can display a resolution of 1280 x 720.
The joy of Joy-Con
The Joy-Con controllers really give Nintendo Switch an edge on similar gaming devices. One of the best features is HD Rumble; imagine your Joy-Con is a glass. With HD rumble, you'll feel the difference as you add ice cubes and pour water into the glass. This sense of touch goes way beyond the normal vibrations you might have experienced in other controllers. Meanwhile the IR Motion Camera can detect shape, movement, and the distance of objects captured by the camera, adding an extra thrill to your gameplay.
A word to the grownups
Parental controls on Nintendo Switch allows you to manage how your family interacts with the device.
Hours of fun
Excellent battery life means the fun can last for more than six hours, depending on software and usage conditions. For example, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild can be played for about three hours on one charge.
A mountain of memory
There's plenty of memory to play with here. 32GB of internal memory, while storage space can be extended by simply using microSDHC or microSDXC cards.

Nintendo Switch Console - Grey SWITCH GREY XKW review
The unique TV-or-mobile gaming proposition of the Nintendo Switch is now matched by a stellar library of games, including instant-classics like new Zelda and Mario titles.- The Nintendo Switch is a versatile hybrid game console that easily pivots between a big-screen TV and on-the-go portable
- The initially slim game library now includes a good mixture of must-have Nintendo franchise exclusives, indie titles and even some decent PC ports.
- No Virtual Console (yet) means no access to decades worth of classic Nintendo games
- The screen feels small during tabletop sessions
- Online multiplayer requires matchmaking on a smartphone app, and Hulu is the only entertainment app.

AMAZING
It is an amazing console, it doesn't have much games but Zelda will last hundreds of hours to complete the entire game and get every item.
Actually having one will change your mind.
This is the best handheld ever. The most flexible console ever. Just a great piece of tech. There is a lot of negativity from people who don't have one or aren't interested in one. This is a premium piece of tech. It feels great, runs great, plays well and all the different modes make it so flexible. The launch line up is a little sparce but it'll fill out over time as all catalogs do. Truly worth the money for Nintendo, Handheld and just Gadget fans in general. Really loving mine so far. :)
Awesome
Beautiful to look at. Loving every inch of this console ❤❤❤
A Bright Future for an intriguing console
I think this console is a brilliant idea for Nintendo. It consolidates their handheld line with their home console line and gives birth to the Switch, which would have to be the most powerful mainstream portable game systems ever made, which can then be played on the comfort of your couch in front...
Switch
Good customer service, would be better if couriers could give an estimated time they would arrive.
Exactly the correct amount of Hype
First, I purchased this system and Zelda simultaneously. I also picked up Snipperclips, so my review is largely based on having two great games for the system on purchase date. Everything you've seen or heard about the switch is accurate, with the possible exception of the controller pairing issues...
Love it.
Looking forward to games to come. Love being able to play breath of the wild on the go
