Introducing Nintendo Switch, the new home video game system from Nintendo. In addition to providing single and multiplayer thrills at home, the Nintendo Switch system can be taken on the go so players can enjoy a full home console experience anytime, anywhere. The mobility of a handheld is now added to the power of a home gaming system, with unprecedented new play styles brought to life by the two new Joy-Con controllers. PLAY ANYWHERE Home Gaming System At home the main unit rests in the Nintendo Switch dock, which connects the system to the TV and lets you play with family and friends in the comfort of your living room. On-the-Go Lift Nintendo Switch from the dock and instantly transition to handheld mode for on-the-go gaming. By sharing Joy-Con, players can go head-to-head while away from home.

New Play Styles Remove the detachable Joy-Con from either side of Nintendo Switch for more play styles: One player can use a Joy-Con in each hand Two players can each take one Multiple Joy-Con can be employed by numerous people for a variety of gameplay options (additional Joy-Con sold separately) Slip a set of Joy-Con into a Joy-Con grip accessory, mirroring a more traditional controller. Or, select an optional Nintendo Switch Pro Controller. Bring together up to 8 Nintendo Switch systems for local face-to-face multiplayer.

A must buy
I had my doubts about the Nintendo switch even though i am a fan of Nintendo. I waited for a year to find out if the console had any flaws, although the only flaw i found with the console was the battery. This was not such an issue as the battery was efficient enough for normal games which lasted for 4-6 hrs and if the game is graphic intense it would last for like 3 hrs. But other than that the console is a breeze to operate and maintain. One of the best features of the console is portability. Suppose you play a game in docked mode and there is a sudden electricity cut the console just needs to be undocked and you can continue laying your game without loosing any data. There is a huge array of games available for this console now so its definitely an awesome purchase. I did order the console from Amazon from a vendor who seemed to have very little positive reviews but i had no issues at all. I received a brand new sealed console which was packed really well and the product was delivered before time. Overall i am a happy customer and i would recommend this console to game lovers of all ages.

Manual was missing
Everything was fine but it irked me that there was no manual given in the box. Perhaps someone took it out and forgot to put it back in. I’m yet to use the switch so I have nothing more to say.

The almost perfect companion, even for a college student!
Wow this is going to be lengthy.Some background: I am a CS student who has to live in the college dorm as mandated. Student life can be hectic with projects, assigments and stuff and there isn't much one can do in a dorm-room with mediocre wifi and a lot of a other minor restrictions of keeping something for entertainment. I used to feel bored a lot and really had nothing else to do here.I then found out about Nintendo Switch and decided to do some research into it. I was really intrigured by it as it brought back childhood memories of having a PSP (a handheld console like this for those who do not know). Plus, the additional factor of it having "MARIO" games in itself was nostalgic enough. Thus, I took a leap of faith (considering this has no warranty in India) and bought it on a whim. I also bought a 256gig microSD card as I planned to go digital (who has space for loads of those cartridge boxes in a tiny dorm room anyways. Also, they get lost and scratched so...). The moment I held it and played my first game (Smash Bros Ultimate), I knew I made the right choice. IT IS JUST SO MUCH FUN! Props to Nintendo for making this amazing console and making awesome new versions of the old classics (Zelda BOTW and Super Mario Bros being a few)! Its a perfect pick-it-up-and-play console which isn't "serious" or distracting enough to distract me from my studies (it can be if you buy beautiful and engaging RPGs like Zelda and Xenoblade but I didn't haha). The UI of this console also gets a lot of appreciation from me being a budding front-end developer myself. Its slick, fast and did I say awesome? It is to the point and keeps the gaming aspect of it to the front with a bold square boxed array of your downloaded/current cartridge's games being the main menu. I am in love with just every aspect of it!TL;DR This is an awesome console for any age group and with the amount of games it has (and has coming) will surely keep you entertained for ages!Some general tips for Indian buyers:0. No warranty (but you already know that don't you?) but the build quality is reliable enough that you probably won't be needing it anytime soon.1. Indian PayPal accounts work with this console so use that (haven't tested credit/debit cards but I hear Axis/ICICI work).2. I encourage you to buy digital games as they give you virtual coin credits which can take a few bucks off your next game purchase. Also, they are a bit cheaper than physical copies due to no regional pricing for them (physical copies) in India.3. The charger that comes in the box is a flat-pin 110-240V brick but can be used as-is if any ports of your house has the flat-pin connector.

Greatness sometimes comes in small packages...!
Being a fan of video games for the past 20 years, thought the industry has lost its way in producing games that bring pure joy and fun. Since, that's what they were supposed to be, even dating back to arcade days. As time flew game devs are more invested in making closer to life games, by making the graphics more and more realistic (also playing the who got better specs contest). But one company stuck to the ground in making games that were actually fun to play, explore and spend time with. NINTENDO. Nintendo's mission is to try to make people happy, to try to make people smile.I am a proud Playstation fan. PS4 pro is my console of choice. But something about the Nintendo switch made me want to try it out once. This company has a clear idea of what the gamers want. But switch is not yet available officially in India. So went ahead and made the purchase online (thanks to amazon). Bit skeptical though, since there is no warranty. But the seller stood upto my expectation. Packaging was good.Loved the hybrid console right from the moment that i lay my hands on it. Stopped playing with PS4. And the game "Legend of zelda: Breath of the wild", now i realize what all the ruckus is about. What a wonderful adventure. We have to watch with glittering eyes the whole world in the game, because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.My advise is to get the second gen console since it has a better battery life. Also try to get the USB bluetooth dongle by the name "8Bit do". You can find that in Amazon too. So that we can use any Bluetooth controller (PS4, Xbox one S...)Contents:1) Switch tablet2) 2 Joy cons (Got the neon blue & red version)3) Joycon adapter4) 2 Joycon straps5) HDMI cable6) Power cord (upto 220 v)Purchased a 256 GB Micro sdxc card for extra storage. Since the available memory is a mere 32GBGetting 3 hrs max batter life on hand held mode. But playing the most using docked mode on my 4K TV.No eshop to purchase online games in India. Have to rely on Cardritges (Available in Amazon, CEX shop in phoenix, chennai). Thankfully, this console is not region locked. So we can indeed create a seperate account (US/ Japan), so that we can purchase games from that region. Haven't tried this one yet. If someone tries, kindly let me know.

Grandpa scores big
Well, I can't say a lot about it since it's a Christmas gift for my grand-daughters. Heck I have never even owned a game machine myself. But I did own a video store so I have a little familiarity. What I can say is wow , this thing is compact. Seems to have a great selection of games for it. The mobility capacity seems pretty cool. It beats the tar out of my EtchaSketch that I got at their age. Really looking forward to seeing their faces on Christmas

Nota fiscal eletrônica
produto original em funcionamento perfeito inclusive com nota fiscal, única loja da Amazon Brasil que emitem nota fiscal eletrônica, parabéns e obrigado pelo produto
R**.
Recomendo!
O produto chegou antes do prazo e em perfeitas condições; não tenho nada a reclamar nesse sentido. A única coisa que eu senti falta foi a nota fiscal, tendo em vista que o único documento que veio foi uma descrição da compra. É claro que se eu eventualmente precisar eu posso facilmente comprovar a minha compra através dos e-mails que a Amazon manda e não terei qualquer prejuízo nesse sentido, mas, ainda assim, a nota fiscal é sempre bem-vinda.O videogame é divertidíssimo e a sua versatilidade faz com que eu gaste muito mais tempo nele do que imaginei que gastaria. Tenho as manhãs e os finais de noite livres e sempre os passo jogando na TV na manhã e jogando deitado na minha cama à noite.O único problema é o preço dos jogos, que sempre giram em torno de 200-300 reais, mas é o preço a se pagar por um produto importado que não é oficialmente vendido no Brasil. Comprei três juntos do videogame e pretendo permanecer só com eles por muito tempo, mas acredito que não passarei vontade por serem muito divertidos e extremamente longos.A bateria do videogame no modo portátil é boa. Como só uso dessa forma à noite, posso colocar o brilho no mínimo, o que economiza bastante a bateria. Normalmente costumo jogar por até umas quatro horas até precisar carregá-lo, o que é mais do que o suficiente porque não jogo por tanto tempo seguido assim.Quanto ao carregamento, ele costuma levar umas duas horas apenas quando conectado no adaptador para TV, o que é consideravelmente rápido. Também dá para carregá-lo diretamente na tomada, mas não cheguei a fazer isso e não sei dizer se o tempo de carregamento chega a ser reduzido.Os controles tem uma vida de bateria excelente. É difícil eu usá-los soltos, mas quando o faço fico até mais de hora jogando e a bateria ainda continua constando como máxima, então dá pra ver que deve durar muito mais que o videogame em si e você não precisa se preocupar com isso (segundo o Google a bateria dos controles duram até 20h, o que um ótimo ponto positivo).Em resumo, super recomendo a compra. O produto chegou rapidamente e em perfeitas condições, isso sem mencionar que ele é extremamente versátil, o que faz as jogatinas ficarem ainda mais divertidas.

Amazing portable gaming experience
Awesome portable system, capable of maximum 60fps framerate and 1080p resolution when docked, 720p resolution when undocked. Graphics heavy games like Zelda, Doom and LA Noire are much more downgraded, playing at 30fps and 900p~720p on average. I still think this is pretty impressive though, considering the system is portable. You trade visuals for portability, which is helpful for those who are on the move a lot.The Multiplayer gaming is a lot of fun, but requires either more controllers or other people with Switches to connect wirelessly. The single joycons are okay, and getting another pair is pretty expensive. Biggest complaint is that it is not bundled with any games, which is why it gets 4 stars from me.

Everything is great except for the joy-con wrist-straps
Super satisfied with the console itself, everything seems to be working perfectly and it arrived super quickly. However, the button on the wrist-straps for the joy-cons that are used to adjust the size are so incredibly flimsy. For context, I received this item on Monday May 28, however by Friday June 1 (just 4 days later) both buttons on both wrist-straps had come out of its socket and broken. I had been using the console with the joy-cons attached up until this point. Friday was the first day I used to the joy-cons separately of the console, so on the very first use, the wrist-strap buttons broke. I did not drop them or pull hard at them, I simply pushed the button down to adjust the size and I heard the plastic bits inside snap. Once I fished out the broken plastic pieces, I saw how flimsy they were. This is extremely disappointing given how expensive the Switch is. I have attached pictures of the broken pieces and where they broke off of.
