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 review

After months of waiting, the Nintendo Switch is finally here, boasting a hybrid design that'll provide both console gaming and on-the-go gaming with a single console. Is Nintendo's upcoming console something you should get excited about, or is it full of gimmicks?

Lots of fun!

This console offers lots of options and loads of fun! At home or on the go, the Nintendo Switch got you covered. Great graphics, long batter life and no lag game play!

The sticky subject with the Switch is, unfortunately, price. At £280 it's not actually all that much for a brand-new console. Both the PS4 and Xbox One retailed at far higher prices at launch and were arguably nowhere near as versatile.

Nintendo Switch Review

The most compelling reason to get the Nintendo Switch is to play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild , and that'll continue to be true for a while. While that hopefully won't come to define the Switch, Nintendo has a ways to go to convince everyone else.

Going from home to handheld use is easy and convenient; simple user interface; games are designed to take advantage of the system's strengths; HD Rumble is neat (if a little gimmicky)

Online gameplay is still an unknown; some will find the Joy-Con controllers too small when separated from the console; doesn't include a carrying case; few games available at launch; no support for wireless headphones

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...

Nintendo Switch Review

However, if Nintendo leaves you completely cold, and the idea of taking your games away from the TV or monitor and out into the real world isn't for you, you probably won't enjoy the Switch.

fun but expensive and no metroid

Bought this to have something to do on my lunch breaks and it is fun to be able to play dark souls when not at home but its expensive if u want to play any nintendo published game: ex "zelda breath of the wild" has been out for a couple years and has sold over 10 million copies but is still $50-60...

"Great device - limited titles"

Awesome device, playing Legend of Zelda is almost worth the price. Good battery life. In my opinion wait until E3 or later for more titles, as it is, with no backwards compatibility with WiiU games its a bit limited.

I got this for my daughter for Christmas and she loves it! We have used all that it comes with (minus the skin voucher - she didnt seem interested in that at all). The carry case is nice and sturdy, love that it comes with headphones as she is always misplacing hers, and the screen protector goes on...

Nintendo Switch News and Rumor Round-up

A few days ago, sharp eyes across the internet noticed that Nintendo's Switch console has been added to lists of compliant hardware at The Khronos Group . Vulkan 1.0 was the eye-catcher, although the other tabs also claims conformance with OpenGL 4.5 and OpenGL ES 3.2.
