Revainrating 5 out of 5

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

For some reason, many have decided that the prices for games on the Nintendo Switch are incredibly expensive - this is not so. Firstly, games from Nintendo itself: you can’t say that they are expensive, because there is nothing to compare with. Secondly, games from third-party developers that are on 3 consoles: they cost the same (you can look in some MVideo), and sometimes cheaper (for example, FIFA) - in general, I personally don’t think that games on Nintendo are very expensive. Console…

Pros
  • -Form factor: "Play where you want, with whom you want, when you want." It's really cool: you're sitting at home and playing on a huge TV screen, some business has appeared - you disconnect the Switch from the dock and you can safely play while riding a bus, flying in an airplane, riding a train, etc. Also, do not forget that Switch's portability is not only "flying in an airplane", but also banal gatherings on the bed, if you want - you play in the kitchen, etc. -Very interesting games in terms of gameplay come to this console from Nintendo itself (Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, Mario Cart, Splatoon and others) + for 2.5 years (since the release) the console has acquired quite good AAA projects from third party developers (Assasins Creed, Witcher 3, Skyrim, Doom and more) -Very nice materials. Every time you take the Switch in your hands, you understand what you paid for. I will also write down the assembly here - very high quality.
Cons
  • -Internal memory is only 32GB + maximum cartridge memory is only 32GB (at least at the moment), this does not allow game developers to release any modern AAA projects (you have to make compromises: either download additional game files via e-shop or cut functionality (although this also happens due to the hardware component as well) or, as in the case of The Witcher, make it impossible to change the language (where you bought the game - such a language will be)). -It is mandatory to purchase a memory card of at least 128GB (I want to play, there are a lot of good games, but they weigh a lot) (see point 1) - Not a bright screen - playing in the sun is unrealistic. -I was very upset by the fact that there is no way to connect a wireless headset (although there is Bluetooth in Switch), although this may be added in the future - it is quite real. -Judging by the reviews of other people, Switch after a year or two starts to make quite a lot of noise and heat up, but I personally have not had this yet.

I like everything, the price and the quality are both ok.

Great piece of hardware, but I advise you to wait with the purchase until more games come out With its pros. + Excellent build quality + Original controllers (you can play together right out of the box). Also has a touch screen + The most powerful hardware for a portable console + Decent battery (3 hours of Zelda, about 5 hours of less demanding games) + New Zelda (and a bunch of awesome exclusives shown at E3) Cons below: - No browser, image viewing, video, music (they promised to add a…

The product can be used, I expected a little more.

I recommend buying ONLY for a small child, and ONLY if he does not have a normal phone / tablet. If a normal console is already at home, then in no case do not spend money on this miracle. : Oh my God! It costs 21000. No, don't take it, if you don't have a phone/tablet, you can buy a phone/tablet for that kind of money and play on it. More features, usually a pleasant to the touch screen, and the resolution is not 720p.

Pros
  • • Not a bad alternative to a tablet for a small child. • the ability to play together without additional spending on gamepads. • Well, I don't know. Pretty? Yes, make it pretty.
Cons
  • • inconvenient management.1. In terms of convenience and feel, these joysticks will never be compared with a full-fledged gamepad. And yes, they can be attached to a plastic holder and make a gamepad, but it's still not the same. • inconvenient management.2. you can also play on it like on a tablet, but here I am generally confused. Why add a tablet mode, and at the same time make a disgusting, unpleasant to the touch screen? Unclear. • expensive games. • need. If the child has a tablet / phone, then this "console" is unnecessary. • stand. Small, flimsy. I'll attach a video.

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

The Nintendo Switch is a must-buy for lovers of quality games and is ideal to supplement the main platform (PS4 or PC). Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild are really worth buying this game system for. Pros below: + The only hybrid gaming system on the market. + Large library of games, you can count on a large number of exclusive projects. + Cool design, high-quality assembly and a good display. + It is convenient to use both in stationary mode and in portable mode…

Got pros: Mobility Billion Pixel Indie Games Opportunity to play together on the train Has some cons Selects a child Can't connect wireless headphones AAA game prices

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

My observation (maybe wrong, who knows). It's impossible to explain to people and figure out for yourself how good Super Mario Odyssey or Animal Crossing is, you have to try it yourself. Nintendo games are as unique in mechanics and design as they are specific. Relatively speaking, if you liked some Yoshi on the Super Nintendo as a child, then the Switch is prescribed for you. Nintendo makes games primarily for an older audience.

Pros
  • The main killer feature is the ability to instantly return to the game. You sit/lying anywhere, at work, in bed, on the push, picked up the game, exactly from the place where you left off yesterday/last week. It cannot be overestimated, because finally you can pump skills in Skyrim non-stop :> Looks great and feels great in the hands. Like such an advanced unusual device. Even if on closer inspection all the jambs pop up, dust particles under the protective film, the assembly is not the most reliable and all that. Surprisingly thoughtful and nimble OS. For example, when you connect a memory card, games will be downloaded to it, you do not need to configure anything.
Cons
  • Despite a decent package, you still need to take at least a memory card. Built-in little. I also realized for myself that cartridges are as inconvenient as possible. Yes, you can drive away the past and buy a new one, but rearranging them is simply unbearable. If you want to play one, but you have a cartridge with another, well, don't rearrange it. I only played Animal Crossing like this for a few months because I was too lazy to put in another game. Got drunk? Of course it's portable. Now I focus only on the number, and there prices are biting and discounts are rare, but sometimes you can grab something good, the main thing is to monitor the whole thing.

Best price for this product, will buy more!

I thought for a long time, to take not to take the price bites, I was afraid that it would be lying around, as a result, now I gamble more than on PS4, I always take it with me, Queues are not a problem, waiting for a girlfriend is not a problem, constipation is now the same is not a problem =)))) but that's all think, take not take, this is for those who exactly love the romance of a portable. All good!

Pros
  • Powerful!
Cons
  • The screen would be bigger! Price!

Performs its functions, nothing unusual.

Has some pros Uncontested form factor, wonderful design and quite successful technical execution. Some cons: Sooo expensive games and accessories for most residents of the post-USSR.

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

In general, I am very pleased with the console, it is really a unique gaming experience compared to other consoles that are chasing a beautiful picture and 4k. I have both a gaming PC and a PS4, but the Switch has become the main gaming platform - both thanks to its exclusives and thanks to the ports of several other games from famous publishers (honestly, it’s worth playing Skyrim for the 5th time, but already in a portable one - it’s worth a lot!) As for the price of games, there are…

Pros
  • Hybrid console format: classic game in front of the TV, tabletop mode or handheld Quality materials and assembly Unique games from Nintendo itself + AAA titles from major publishers USB Type-C - charging, Nintendo did not invent their own format Support for microSD cards (there is also a drawback, but it's below) The format of the media is a cartridge (fast reading speed, and just a convenient format for transportation, for example, in a case).
Cons
  • Small built-in memory, only 32GB - for those who are going to buy games in digital format, this is not enough + some games require files to be resumed into the console's memory, even if the game was purchased on a cartridge. The docking station does not imply a special coating in itself so as not to scratch the screen when inserting the console - immediately glue the film / glass, or carefully place the console.

I am amazed at how well made the product is, just magical!

I am satisfied with the purchase, but a fully functioning set required additional expenses: a 256GB memory card about 4k, a case and a film about 2k, an additional pair of joycons 6k, and a power bank about 2k Has some pros 1) mobile gaming is very convenient, no need to carry a laptop to sit down to play on the road, on the plane, in line or an hour or two before going to bed. 2) a lot of deep and interesting game projects: Skyrim, Wasteland, resident evil, almost all parts, The Witcher 3 will

I didn't expect the quality to be so high.

Its pros: Good equipment; Great design (the idea of ​​a hybrid bomb); good materials that make up the console Has some cons Memory is small (30GB), but can be supplemented; Of the AAA games, only Zelda and Arms (but time will tell)

Great product, best quality.

I took the console for a new gaming experience and because of the feedback from friends and colleagues. For me, the decisive factor was the release of one long-awaited game. After playing it, I took a few more Nintendo games, a lot of new and fun gaming experience. The console is worth the money, I would only like to have lower prices for games, but Nintendo has had such a policy for a long time.

Pros
  • The best portable console with good games, there are a couple of exclusives (for me it was a Brigandine game, hello PS1).
Cons
  • Prices for everything related to it

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like everything, the price and quality are acceptable.

Why did you buy the Nintendo Switch? The first reason is the same competitors, the games for which, for the most part, are also released on the PC, while they are cheaper. In this case, the console does not duplicate other platforms, it is good as an addition to the same PC. The second reason is that I liked the unique hybrid system: there is a tabletop mode, portability, an unusual 2-in-1 gamepad, the ability to play locally with two people anywhere. All the nostalgia of the 90s is felt, there

Pros
  • Interesting idea and good execution
Cons
  • Firmware, game prices

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

As the only gaming platform for the "gamer", probably not the best candidate yet. But for people who already own a mainstream gaming platform like a good PC or other modern console, the Switch is the perfect choice. As the only gaming platform for an adult who doesn't have time for mainstream platforms, Switch is the perfect choice too.

Pros
  • - The most interesting console on the market at the moment. - Games from Nintendo itself - Breath of The Wild, Odyssey, Mario Kart, Splatoon, etc. - this is only in the first few months of the console's existence. Judging by the pace of sales - the future is more than good. - Games from third-party developers - for example, full-fledged Skyrim and Doom with a Dark Souls remaster in your pocket. Damn, cross-platform minecraft and rocket league - you play at the university on breaks, kaef. Well, there is a high probability of the release of Read Dead Redemtion with GTA V and HD remasters of MGS 2 and 3. Well, how not to buy? - Hybridity - have a few free minutes at home? You can play. Are you waiting in line? You can play. Sitting in a public transport, what the hell is the time? You can play. With all this, these same games can be transferred to a TV set with a slight movement and played like a normal person. - The ability to easily buy games in other regions where prices are tastier. - Human USB Type-C with the possibility of recharging from power banks. - Local multiplayer - up to 8 consoles are going to LAN. Lamp. - Praised HD vibration. Not that it’s something unrealistic, but where developers really use the capabilities of joycons (Odyssey), immersion increases by 256%. - An obvious and advertised feature - joycons can be used as small standalone gamepads without arrows and a second stick, which means that many games can be played on the same console by two people right out of the box. More comfortable than it looks. - A non-obvious and unadvertised feature - joycons can be played as one gamepad, divided into two halves. It is incredibly convenient when lying in a chair or on a sofa. - Speakers are good. The screen, despite not the highest pixel density, also looks nice.
Cons
  • - The case at the back is very easy to scratch and blur, although the material is matte. - The latches with straps for the joycons that come with the kit are made so poorly that you don’t want to use them after the first time, but the set-up is waiting here too - it’s hard to take them off, even if you put them on correctly. If you put them on the other way around, they will stay on the joycons forever. - The stand is bad - it jumps out of the mount very easily (I understand that this is a feature, but still), in desktop mode the console is not very stable, the angle is too small and is not adjustable. Well, this is not to mention the fact that it is impossible to charge the console to the desktop mode - the port is from below. - Prices for some games are clearly too high. Breath of the Wild costs absolutely horse (4500) money with us, while other games of the same price category ($60) are sold for 3600, which at least looks like 60 bucks. To be fair, digital-only multi-platform releases sometimes cost a lot on Steam. - There is a browser and it works incredibly fast, but you can’t use it yet (?). There are no other applications yet. - The e-shop is not very convenient. - 32 GB of memory on board. Despite the fact that even games on cartridges may not be played without downloading several gigabytes of the game. - Lack of backward compatibility. And the cartridges are bitter.

A high-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

If you are ready for a bunch of hate from the 2022 community, but at the same time open to games that become games of the year. Ready not to steal, but to pay honestly, then this is your choice! With its pros. Portability, during a lunch break, spend time with pleasure, on the train in the train home, an hour to sit at the game flies by. Games that you want to play, and not farm, swing, pass, namely play. The quality of the games themselves from N With its cons. The society hardly understands…

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

in terms of graphics and overall performance, it is extremely difficult to notice the difference with the Wii U. when compared with xbox, ps - in general, this is approximately the level of PS3, xbox360, with better textures due to more RAM, up to PS4, XONE - not to mention PS4PRO, XONEX - very far. in the menu, the speed is again slightly better than PS3, XBOX360, but worse than PS4, XONE about resolution (when connected to TV) - there are no more games with 1080p than PS3, XBOX360 Generally…

Pros
  • hybridity 2 joycons - those for many games do not need a separate gamepad for playing together unique nintendo games finally a normal charging port - and not what was in their earlier consoles something comes out of the multiplatform (for Nintendo this is a plus)
Cons
  • little memory - I would like at least 64gb their subscription - which is scheduled to launch in September 2022 - is very poor compared to what they give in sony and xbox (gives online and . games for nes (dandy)) discount policy from nintendo is very different from what is in xbox, and ps4 - there any even the most unique AAA game in a year - will be sold with a 70%-80% discount, on average every 4 weeks, discounts are much rarer here, and almost none exceed 40% no backward compatibility there are few unique games, namely, under switch (relevant for those who have Wii U), of which there are only two worthy of attention - Super Mario Odyssey and Splatoon 2 - everything else is ports from Wii U (zelda, capitan toad, hyrule warriors, smash bros, etc.) - and a significant part of future games are also ports from wii u with the help of those accessories that come with the kit - you can not charge the joysticks without connecting them to the console - this complicates its use as a stationary console the leg at the back is not comfortable, you can only put it on a flat hard surface - it’s already difficult to put it on a soft one this is the only console where there is no youtube, and a browser - but it was hacked anyway - so mb will be (now it makes no sense not to install it because of security)

The product did not cause delight, but you can use it.

Decided to buy, because. I've wanted to play botw and let's go for a long time. The console itself came at a good price, but the two products I wanted cost me more than half the cost of the console. During the period of operation, different things happened. The sled for the joycon was chipped off twice in a row and once the charge indicator of the same joycon failed, which stopped working after some time. In the second week, I had to stop using the docking station. out of his own stupidity, he…

Pros
  • Visually pleasing and intuitive interface. Tactile sensations.
Cons
  • Cheap assembly (plastic around), dubious portability (comment), autonomy (enough for a maximum of 2.5 ~ 3 hours), marriage (comment).
