The Nintendo Switch is a versatile hybrid game console that easily pivots between a big-screen TV and on-the-go portable. Its modular Joy-Con controllers are inventive. The entire hardware feels substantial and refined. Breath of the Wild is one of the be

Besides Zelda
There are only a handful of games and no Virtual Console. The screen feels small during tabletop sessions. Joy-Con layout is cramped and crowded

Abstract: I feel like Nintendo has been lost for a while. The runaway success of the Wii left them complacent—its very success largely bought by a fickle casual crowd that soon moved on to the next hot tech trend. When the Wii U arrived in late 2012, it was already...

Nintendo's dream of hybrid gaming fully realized, Truly exciting hardware that stands out from the rest, Fairly solid launch lineup, especially with Zelda
Accessories are far too expensive, Online systems still need a lot of work, Launch feels rushed in general

In a way, Nintendo's missteps with both the hardware and software of the Nintendo Switch simplify what could have otherwise been a very complicated question. Wondering whether you should buy the Nintendo Switch? Ask yourself whether playing The Legend of...
Abstract: Nintendo is a company of many landmarks. The NES saved the home gaming industry from near-extinction in the 80s, the Wii was a cultural phenomenon whose accessible approach motivated many to try games for the first time, and the company remains the longes...
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), The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is stellar
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, Prev3 of 3Next
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 els...
Abstract: Nintendo already had its eyes on making a TV-based games console portable when it released the Wii U back in 2012. Sadly, the lack of games, the extremely slow loading of games, and an even more irritatingly slow OS failed to catch on when compared to wha...

Our verdict of the Nintendo Switch:If you can live with unfinished software and a few bad design choices, the Switch and a copy of Breath of the Wild is a compelling purchase. A revision will ultimately fix some of the design complaints, but you could be...
If you're a Nintendo Switch owner, you should purchase 1-2-Switch, especially if you enjoy playing with friends. You're probably hyped to spend time in Hyrule, but 1-2-Switch is a one-of-a-kind experience.There is excellent variety in its games and a fun...
